Abstract

PURPOSE:To miniaturize a press-contact plate by setting the edging part of the turning member side of a compression spring in a position farther from the edging part of the regulating member side of the compression spring than from the turning center of the turning member. CONSTITUTION:The edging part of the turning member 3' side of the compression spring 7 is set in a position farther from the edging part of the regulating member 9 side of the compression spring 7 than from the turning center 13a of the turning member 3'. Accordingly, when the compression spring 7 is selected, the length of the compression spring in the closed and opened condition of the press plate 12 is lengthened, and the selection width of the compression spring is enlarged. Therefore, the occupied space of the compression spring is reduced and the press-contact plate can be miniaturized.

It is rotatably supported, and a shaft 6 is protruded from the rotatable member 3 . A compression spring 7 is loosely fitted onto the shaft 6, and a stopper 9 is slidably fitted onto the shaft 6 at the tip end of the spring 7. Also,
A mounting member 10 is rotatably supported by the support leg 2 about a shaft 11, and a pressure bonding plate 12 is fixed to the mounting member 10. Further, the distal end of the mounting member 10 is engaged with the stopper 9, so that the compression spring 7 is regulated by the stopper 9 on the distal end side and by the rotating member 3 on the proximal end side. The mounting member 10, the @ member 3, the shaft 6, the compression spring 7, and the stopper 9 are configured to rotate together by opening and closing the crimp plate 12. When selecting the crimp spring 7 (for example, the number, spring constant, free length, etc.), first, the crimp plate 1
2, and then set the positions of the shafts 5 and 11 and the engagement position of the stopper 9 and the mounting member 10.

(c) Problems to be solved by the invention By the way, in the above-described crimp plate opening/closing device 1, it is often not possible to set the optimum spring, and in that case,
The shaft 11 is arranged so that the length l of a perpendicular drawn from the center of the shaft 11 to the line of action of the spring force R1 is
The selection range of compression springs is expanded by changing each parameter by decreasing (or increasing the length Ll while leaving the length l and spring force R1 unchanged). There is a tendency for the occupied volume to become larger, which goes against the trend toward miniaturization of the entire device.

(e) Effect: Based on the above-described structure, the space occupied by the compression spring is reduced, and the pressure bonding plate itself is miniaturized. When the operator opens the crimp plate with a rotation moment greater than the rotation moment due to the weight of the crimp plate in the closed state minus the rotation moment due to the spring force of the compression spring, the crimp plate is urged open by the compression spring. to keep it open. In addition, when closing a crimp plate that is in an open state, if the operator closes the crimp plate with a rotational moment greater than the rotational moment due to the spring force of the compression spring minus the rotational moment due to the crimp plate's own weight, The rotational moment becomes larger than the rotational moment due to the spring force of the compression spring, and the crimp plate maintains the closed state.

By shifting the compression spring 7 toward the support leg 2 by the distance #L3 from the shaft portion 13 to the bottom plate 3'c, when selecting the compression spring 7, the compression spring 7 when the crimp plate 12 is in the closed state can be adjusted. The selection range of compression springs can be expanded by increasing the length L4 and the length of the compression spring when the compression plate 12 is in the open state. Then, the weight and center of gravity of the crimp plate 12 are measured, and then the shaft portion 13 is measured.
Then, the position of the shaft 11 and the engagement position between the stopper 9 and the mounting member 10 are set. Then, from the viewpoint of operability, we decided to use the crimp plate 1.

Due to the rotational moment around the shaft 11 minus the rotational moment of the spring R1', the pressure bonding plate 12 is maintained in the closed state and the original is brought into close contact with the platen of the image forming apparatus. Furthermore, when the crimp plate 12 is released by a force larger than the rotational moment around the shaft 11, a rotational moment 1 due to the weight of the crimp plate 12 itself is generated from the rotational moment of the spring force of the compression spring 7.
The pressure bonding plate 12 is urged to open due to the rotational moment around the shaft 11 minus -, and the stopper portion 10a contacts the edge portion of the support leg 2 to restrict the opening angle.
