Image formation unit 17 includes providing yellow (Y), magenta (M), cyan (C), the tone of black (K) a variety of colors Agent box 28 (28Y, 28M, 28C, 28K), and the photographic department according to the optical analog picture signal of scanning element 16 generation image 20Y, 20M, 20C, 20K, and the transfer by the image primary transfer on photographic department 20Y, 20M, 20C, 20K to transfer belt 21 Portion.The cleaning unit of residual toner in cleaning photosensitive drums is installed at photographic department 20Y, 20M, 20C, 20K.Each photographic department Be provided with a photosensitive drums, cleaning unit, which generally comprises, is arranged on the upward doctor blade of photosensitive drum shaft and cleaning knife, doctor blade and Knife is cleaned to clear up the toner of photosensitive drum surface residual when photosensitive drums rotate.
Transfer belt 21 is erected on driven roller 32 and driven voller 33,34, and driven roller 32 is relative with secondary transfer roller 35 to match somebody with somebody Put.When medium S is by between driven roller 32 and secondary transfer roller 35, secondary transfer roller 35 applies transfer voltage by transfer belt 21 Toner image be transferred on medium S.Toner in cleaning transfer belt 21 is provided near the driven voller 34 of transfer belt 21 Cleaner 36.
In paper feed between secondary transfer roller 35, provided with the separate roller 37 for taking out the medium S in paper feeding cassette 18 and pass Roller 38 is sent, the fixing device 39 being fixed to medium S epigraphs is provided with the downstream of secondary transfer roller 35.In fixing device 39 Downstream is provided with the transfer roller 40 for discharging medium S to paper discharge unit 41.
Further, two-sided transmitting path 42 can also be set in the downstream of fixation unit device.Two-sided transmitting path 42 makes Medium S inverts the backward direction of secondary transfer roller 35 guiding, to carry out printed on both sides to medium S.
As shown in Figure 2,3, the fixing device 39 in an embodiment of the present utility model includes endless belt in general manner Shape backer roll 394 and idler roller 392 in fixing band 393, is arranged on fixing band with pumped (conveying) medium S fixing band 393 393 outsides are to be adjacent to and heat the heating roller 391 of fixing band 393, and pressurization part 50.
Idler roller 392 and backer roll 391 are used to be tensioned fixing band 393, make the middle part of fixing band 393 and adding for outside Hot-rolling 391 forms the state being adjacent to.
Pressurization part 50 is located in fixing band 393 and relative with the position of heating roller 391, is pressed to applying to fixing band 393 The pressing force of heating roller 391.Specific pressurization part 50 includes the pressing pad 51 contacted with fixing band 393, and positioned at pressing pad 51 With respect to the heat pipe 52 of the side of fixing band 393, and the heater block 53 for the offer heat of heat pipe 52, heater block 53 are arranged on heat The one or both ends of pipe 52.
During work, heated by the opposite heat tube 52 of heater block 53, the heat of heat pipe 52 is transferred to by pressing pad 51 On fixing band 393, so as to which the medium S for coordinating heating roller 391 to convey fixing band 393 is fixed.
Heat pipe 52 transfers heat to pressing pad 51 under the heating of heater block 53, enables pressing pad 51 by heat Stably it is sent on fixing band 393.When conveying narrower medium S on fixing band 393, the non-overwrite media in its one or both sides After S position temperature rise, pressing pad 51 can receive the high temperature of non-paper passing area and the relative low temperature of paper passing area simultaneously, then Be transferred on heat pipe 52, then by the heat transfer of itself of heat pipe 52, be consistent temperature, then return to pressing pad 51, make by The temperature of pressure pad 51 is kept in balance, and then the temperature of fixing band 393 is also maintained equilibrium, so as to be solved by simple structure Temperature unbalanced problem on fixing band 393.
In present embodiment, when the temperature on heat pipe 52 is less than the temperature of heater block 53, heater block 53 can be absorbed Temperature, and temperature be higher than heater block 53 temperature when, then can to heater block 53 convey heat, heater block 53 can be reduced Acting, so as to reduce cost.In addition, by using such structure, power consumption can also be reduced, improves the efficiency of heating surface, and The end region temperature of fixing member is set to reach thermal balance, without possessing the temperature control of the structure of complexity or complexity.
Specific heat pipe 52 can be made up of the high metal of aluminium type of thermosensitive performance, and pressing pad 51 can also be by same Metal material be made.Heat pipe 52 and pressing pad 51 can be installed together by way of activity clamps, and can also be used and be pressed The modes such as pressure are fixed together to form integrative-structure.
Pressing pad 51 can make it keep certain pressure to fixing band 393 all the time by spring one kind elastic construction.
In present embodiment, although what is limited is pressing pad 51, in other embodiments, can also directly it make Heat pipe 52 contacts with fixing band 393, without using pressing pad 51.
The press section 50 of present embodiment is distributed in the whole width regions contacted with fixing band 393, therefore, even in logical Paper region carries out causing the temperature of paper passing area to reduce after heating is fixing, can also be immediately by it by the proportionality action of heat pipe 52 The heat transfer at place comes, and the temperature at the temperature and heater block 53 of non-paper passing area is reached thermal balance.In addition, by only The thermal balance between thermal capacity and each part needed for heating carries out heat transfer, can improve heating efficiency.
In an embodiment of the present utility model, specific heater block 53 can use ceramic heater.Ceramics Heater may be mounted at one end of heat pipe 52, can also be separately mounted to the both ends of heat pipe 52.Mounting means can be activity The mode of contact or the mode being fixedly connected.
, can be with to reduce the friction between pressurization part 50 and fixing band 393 in an embodiment of the present utility model Installation reduces the sliding part (not shown) of friction between pressing pad 51 and fixing band 393.Specifically sliding part can be The metalwork of the outer surface of pressing pad 51 or the heat resistance coating coated in the outer surface of pressing pad 51 are clamped or are fixed on, Such as:The resin of heat resistance, such as PEEK materials, phenolic resin are made, more slightly wider than paper passing area.
As shown in figure 4, in an embodiment of the present utility model, for convenience of obtaining when fixing device 39 works everywhere Temperature, can in the inner side of fixing band 393, configure detection the temperature of fixing band 393 temperature sensor 54 or thermostat, so as to The temperature of fixing band 393 can be controlled, specific temperature detection part can be disposed on the contact heat of the periphery of fixing band 393 Quick resistance or contactless thermistor, and the NTC thermistor as non-contact infrared temperature detection part, thermoelectricity Heap.Temperature detection part whether contact or contactless, if can be with detection temperature, and may not be multiple It is several.
Although the description of several embodiments of the present utility model, but these embodiments are intended only as example and proposed , it is not intended to limit the scope of the utility model.These new embodiments, it can be implemented in a manner of other are various, In the range of the main idea of utility model is not departed from, various omissions, displacement, combination and change can be carried out.These embodiments All it is contained in the scope of the utility model and main idea with its deformation, and it is new to be contained in this practicality described in claims In type and its equivalency range.
