Definitions
- the invention relates to an electrophotographic printing device with a toner developer unit, an exposure device, a developer drum, a photoconductor, a transfer unit and an earthed charging device, in which the substrate to be printed is moved past the transfer zone of the transfer unit on a transport device and the toner image of the transfer unit is on the substrate can be transferred.
- Such a printing device is known from DE 198 49 500 A1.
- the developer unit works with a toner and is assigned to a photoconductor drum.
- the surface of the photoconductor drum is activated by means of an exposure device, so that toner application is possible thereon.
- the photoconductor drum is connected to a transfer roller via a contact line.
- the transfer roller rolls on the surface of the sub- strates and is transferred with the help of an electrostatic charge of the substrate to the top of the substrate facing the transfer unit.
- the first transfer process occurs when the photoconductor drum is transferred to the transfer roller, the second when the toner is transferred to the substrate.
- the toner is not completely transferred during the transfer processes.
- the aim should be to achieve the highest possible transition rate so that clear, sharp-edged printed images are created.
- the uniform and sufficient formation of the charge pattern in the area of the surface of the substrate, i.e. the charge transfer from the charger to the substrate is critical.
- an insulator is arranged between the grounded transport device and the substrate and an electrically conductive layer is arranged between the substrate and the insulator, which is located above the charging device located above the substrate and the in Direction of transport oriented dimension of the substrate to be printed extends.

This may be due to the fact that a homogeneous field is generated which is not adversely affected by the transport device if it is set to a potential which corresponds to the reference potential of the charging.
- the charging device is preferably designed such that the charging device divides a partial charging device arranged in front of and in the transport direction behind the transfer zone, which are housed in grounded housings that are open to the substrate.
- the substrate to be printed is first fed to the partial loading device arranged in front of the transfer unit and is electrostatically charged on its surface before it is fed to the transfer zone.
- the toner transfer takes place in the transfer zone.
- the partial loading device arranged after the transfer zone then prevents a charge drop by reloading the substrate. In this way, a uniform and effective toner transfer over the entire transport path of the substrate is ensured by a homogeneous charge.
- the substrates can be transported in such a way that a table-like transport device is used which can be guided past the transfer zone in a linear manner and is covered as an insulator by means of an insulating plate which is in one piece or divided into segments, and that the segments or the one-piece insulating plate are on the upper side facing the substrate a conductive layer, e.g. are (is) provided with a metal layer.
- a further embodiment provides that the table-like transport device tion elements carries, which are guided by the segments or the one-piece insulating plate and the conductive layer and electrically connected to the conductive layer, but are electrically isolated from the transport device.
- the functional elements must always be flush with the conductive layer, which e.g. is achieved by resilient support of the functional elements on the transport device and leads to a tight fit of the same on the underside of the substrate.
- the transport of the substrates can also be carried out in such a way that the transport device has an endless conveyor belt which is itself designed as a metal belt or is provided with a metal layer on the outside carrying the substrates, that the endless conveyor belt is guided over reversing rollers designed as insulators, and that the endless conveyor belt can be moved between the reversing rollers on an insulating plate covering the transport frame.

- the substrates can be transported continuously without having to move the machine frame.
- the construction of a homogeneous and sufficient charging of the substrates remains ensured even with this configuration of the transport device.
- the charging device is designed as surface corons that extend over the entire width of the substrate to be printed, which extends transversely to the transport direction, and at least partially over the surface in FIG Extend the surface of the substrates oriented in the direction of transport, it also being provided that the surface corons have electrically nonconductive coron wire holders which are tensioned in grounded housings on which a plurality of electrically conductive coron wires arranged next to one another are held, to which a uniform charge potential is supplied, the counter potential of which is grounded.
- the printing device is also constructed such that the two partial loading devices are at a distance which is smaller than the extent of the surface of the substrate to be printed in the transport direction.
- the mentioned electrically conductive layer consists of a thin aluminum or copper foil. Thin sheets or foils made of steel are also suitable, as are plastic foils made of polyurethane, silicone and the like which have been made electrically conductive.
- the electrical conductivity of the layer must be large enough compared to the insulator. Resistors smaller than 1000 ⁇ / cm 2 are advantageous.
- Materials made of highly impact-resistant plastics such as polyamide, polyimide, epoxy resins, hard paper, bakelite, are suitable as insulators.
- the insulator can also consist of abrasion-resistant and mechanically resilient ceramic or silicate material, such as Al 2 O 3 or thin glass.
- the metal layer consists of aluminum or copper foil, thin sheet metal, steel foil or electrically conductive plastic foils made of polyurethane, silicone and the like, which have an electrical conductivity of less than 1000 ⁇ / cm 2 .
- the metal layer and insulator can also be combined into one unit and consist of an epoxy resin plate clad with copper.
- the conductive layer can also be carried out in such a way that an elastic base with a conductive or metallized surface is applied to the insulator of the transport device, which leads to the substrate underside being in even contact. Segmentation of the base is also possible if the segments are electrically conductively connected to one another.
- the conductive surface of the base is charged to a potential (field voltage U F ) of 1 to 10 kV, in particular 3.5 to 5 kV, in relation to ground.
- the surface resistance of the elastic base and the resistance of the functional elements embedded in the transport device, such as endless conveyor belts, should preferably be matched to one another, since this leads to homogeneous charging of the substrate.
- a further embodiment of the printing device provides that the substrate to be printed is placed in a shape adapted to the substrate size.
- the mold is made of an electrically insulating material, the surface of the mold facing the substrate underside is electrically conductive or with an electrically conductive layer or metal plate Mistake.
- the conductive layer or the metal plate is charged to the potential (field voltage U F ) of 1 to 10 kV, in particular 1.5 to 4 kV relative to ground, via sliding contacts which are attached directly in front of and behind the charging device located above the substrate.

- Fig. 6 insulated substrate base plate for electrostatic charging via sliding contacts.
- FIG. 1 shows a side view and partially in section of an electrophotographic printing device for plate-shaped substrates 30.
- the substrate 30 is moved linearly past a transfer zone 24 of a transfer unit with a table-like transport device 25.
- an intermediate layer composed of an insulator 17 or segments 17.1 to 17.n thereof lies between the underside of the substrate 30 and the support plane of the transport device.
- the substrate 30 is charged via a partial charging device 16 arranged in front of the transfer unit in the transport direction and a partial charging device 18 arranged after the transfer unit, which hold a number of electrically conductive corona wires in housings on electrically non-conductive corona wire holders.
- the partial loading devices 1 6 and 1 8 are designed as surface corons and extend across the entire width of at least the substrates 30 to be printed.
- the upper side of the insulator plate 17 or the segments 17.1 to 17.n facing the underside of the substrates 30 is provided with a metal layer 31.
- the transport device 25 is grounded, that is, connected to the counter potential of the charge voltage Uc.
- the corona wires of the partial charging devices 16 and 18 are uniformly connected to the potential of the charging voltage Uc.
- the metal layer 31 of the insulator 17 or of the segments 17.1 to 17.n remains potential-free or is charged to a voltage (U F ) of 1 to 10 kV, in particular of 3.5 to 5 kV, to ground in order to further improve the toner transfer.
- the transfer unit In the area of the transfer zone, the transfer unit is in contact with the substrate 30 for the toner transfer, the transport speed of the substrate 30 being matched or coupled to the rotational speed of the transfer unit in such a way that no slip occurs between the two.
- functional elements 34 can be integrated into the transport device 25, which are in contact with the underside of the substrates 30 to be printed through the insulator 17.
- These functional elements 34 can be suction openings, grooves, transport elements, sensors, cable feedthroughs and other components, which preferably terminate with the top of the metal layer 31 and, if necessary, are held under spring tension on the underside of the substrate 30 by springs 32, as shown in FIG , 3 shows.
- the func tional elements 34 and equipotential bonding lines 33 are connected to the reference potential of the charge voltage Uc and the metal layer 31, but they are kept electrically insulated in the transport direction 25, as can be seen from the small air gap.
- Such transport devices 25 can pass through the transfer zone in succession and can each be covered with one or more substrates 30 to be printed.
- a toner for example a ceramic, a thermoplastic or a thermosetting plastic toner, is stored in a developer unit 10.
- a developer drum 15 is assigned to the developer unit 10 and supplies the toner to a photoconductor 20.
- the photoconductor 20 is cylindrical and is in linear contact with the transfer unit 22 in a contact zone 21.
- a coating device 11 is arranged above the photoconductor 20 and exposes a photosensitive layer on the circumference of the photoconductor 20. This creates a latent electrostatic charge. Due to the The electrostatic processes transfer toner particles from the developer drum 15 to the layer of the photoconductor 20. These toner particles are passed on to the transfer unit 22 in the region of the contact zone 21.
- a cleaning device 14 arranged downstream in the direction of rotation of the photoconductor 20 removes any adhering toner residues from the photoconductor 20. After the cleaning device 14 there is an extinguishing light 13 which discharges the photosensitive layer of the photoconductor 20.

- the transfer unit rolls on the substrate 30 to be printed.
- the toner on the transfer unit is transferred to the substrate 30 in the transfer zone. Since the partial charging devices 1 6 and 18 effect a full-surface charging of the substrate 30 with the opposite potential to the charge on the photoconductor 20, a clear toner transfer takes place with high efficiency.
- the distance in the transport direction between the partial loading devices 16 and 18 is smaller than the dimension of the substrate 30 in this direction, in order to ensure that the substrate 30 remains charged during the entire passage through the transfer zone.
