Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a power supplying unit and an image forming apparatus.
  • the image forming apparatuses need to pass safety standard tests established by the countries in the European Union. Particularly, the apparatuses are required to shorten the lengths of primary harnesses from breakers to noise filters to a minimum for passing tests for conductive interference noises emitted from power source lines and the like. Furthermore, the primary harnesses (alternating-current (AC) systems) and secondary harnesses (direct-current (DC) systems) are required to be wired so as to be apart from each other as far as possible according to the safety standards.
  • the arrangements of parts inside the apparatuses are not always determined by taking into consideration the optimum wiring of the harnesses. Therefore, a lot of trail and error (repetitions of noise tests) needs to be taken for arranging the harnesses in the optimum positions, thereby taking a lot of time and costs for development.
  • Fig. 5A is a schematic diagram illustrating a related art apparatus viewed from behind the apparatus.
  • a power source cable 130 provided with a power source plug 129 branches so as to connect to breakers 131 and 132 through a terminal block 135, and the branched cables from the breakers 131 and 132 connect to noise filters 133 and 134, respectively, each output of which supplies power to an apparatus 101.
  • a gap may occur between the front unit 137 and a contact surface 136 of the rear unit 138 when the rear unit 138 is closed.
  • the gap allows the harnesses and the noise filters to be exposed out of the gap, which is undesirable from the viewpoint of safety standards. As a result, actions such as shielding the gap are required.
  • the structure in which a primary harness is exposed in the housing is not preferable for reducing unwanted radiation noises.
  • Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 2008-512848 which relates to a plug-in power source supplying a low voltage to consumers, discloses particularly a plug-in power source in which a power source plug unit is replaceable by a conversion plug method.
  • the related art technique disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 2008-512848 can cope with differences in power source facilities different among countries by replacing the power source plug unit with that of each country.
  • the technique cannot be applied to a power source having a large capacity because it is exclusively applied to the plug-in power source, thereby having a problem of limitation in its application to power sources.
  • a power supplying unit that is electrically connected to and disconnected from an apparatus-side connector provided to an electronic apparatus.
  • the power supplying unit includes a power source primary-side part; a unit-side connector configured to be electrically connected to the power source primary-side part and electrically connected to and disconnected from the apparatus-side connector; and a unit-side plug configured to be electrically connected to the power source primary-side part and electrically connected to and disconnected from an outlet of an external power source.

  • a primary transfer roller 7 is provided so as to face the photosensitive drum 6 with the intermediate transfer belt 2 interposed therebetween.
  • a supporting roller 8 serves as a driving roller that rotates the intermediate transfer belt 2.
  • a secondary transfer unit 9 is provided under the intermediate transfer belt 2, under the intermediate transfer belt 2, a secondary transfer unit 9 is provided.
  • a secondary transfer roller 11 presses a secondary transfer opposing roller 10 and a transfer electric field is applied therebetween, whereby an image on the intermediate transfer belt 2 is transferred to a recording member (not illustrated).
  • the secondary transfer unit 9 changes a transfer current of the secondary transfer roller 11, which is a parameter of transfer conditions, depending on the type and size of the recording members.

  • the heating mechanism 12 changes depending on the types and sizes of the recording members parameters of the fixing conditions, such as temperatures of the fixing belt 13 and the pressing roller 14, a nipping width between the fixing belt 13 and the pressing roller 14, and a speed of the pressing roller 14.
  • the recording member on which the image has been transferred is conveyed to the heating mechanism 12 by a conveying belt 15.
  • the image forming apparatus 1 Upon receiving image data and a signal to start an image forming operation, the image forming apparatus 1 causes a drive motor (not illustrated) to rotate the supporting roller 8 such that the other supporting rollers are driven to rotate, thereby rotating the intermediate transfer belt 2.
  • the image forming units 3 form the respective color images on the corresponding respective photosensitive drums 6.
  • each color image is sequentially transferred by each primary transfer roller 7 as the intermediate transfer belt 2 is moved, whereby a combined color image is formed on the intermediate transfer belt 2.
  • one of the paper feeding rollers 17 of a paper feeding table 16 is selected and rotated so as to feed the recording member from one of the paper feeding cassettes 18.
  • the fed recording member is conveyed by a carriage roller 19 and stopped when being abutted to a registration roller 20.
  • the registration roller 20 is rotated by being synchronized with the operation timing of conveying the combined color image on the intermediate transfer belt 2 and thereafter the combined color image is transferred by the secondary transfer unit 9 so as to be recorded on the recording member as a color image.
  • the recording member after the image transfer is conveyed by the secondary transfer unit 9 to the heating mechanism 12, in which the transferred image is fused and fixed by applying heat and pressure, and thereafter conveyed by a discharging roller 21 to a decurler unit 22.
  • the decurler unit 22 changes a decurling amount, which is a parameter for evaluating paper feeding property, depending on the recording members.
