していた。° In a captured bed copying machine, a reference density pattern is placed in front of the original, an image is created on the photoreceptor, the density is developed, and the density is measured. By comparing it with the reference density, it is fed back to the process conditions. There is a method to control the image density of the original so that it remains constant against environmental changes, etc., but when a transfer corona is applied via the transfer belt, this density pattern is transferred onto the transfer belt, which causes the belt to become dirty. was occurring.

。Figure 1 is a sectional view showing the structure around the photoreceptor drum of a two-color electrophotographic copying device. In this example, two photoreceptor drums are used, and the transfer paper is attached to the first photoreceptor. The image is transferred to the drum by a transfer belt, and after being transferred, it is transferred to the next second photoreceptor drum by the transfer belt.

が掛り過ぎ、どうしてもベルト汚染が発生する。Incidentally, in addition to the original image, an image of a reference density pattern is also projected onto the first photoreceptor drum 4 and visualized with toner. The density detection sensor 13 simply detects the density of the toner to control the developer and toner concentration, and the transfer corona is applied via the transfer belt 27 without being transferred to the transfer paper. , the image of the reference density pattern is transferred onto the transfer belt 27. The toner 4- transferred onto the transfer belt is removed by the belt static eliminator 32 and the belt cleaning device 33, and falls onto the toner collection tray 34 to be collected. However, this places a load on the belt cleaning device 33. Otherwise, belt contamination will inevitably occur.

が転写ベルト27に付着しないようにするものである。The present invention seeks to eliminate these drawbacks. That is, the potential of the latent image on the first photoreceptor drum 4 is set to positive (or negative), the polarity of the toner is set to negative (or positive), and the corona polarity of the belt charger (pre-charger) 29 is set to negative (or positive). ), and the transfer charger 30 is set to O in the non-image area.
By setting it to FF and setting it to positive (or negative) in the image area, it is possible to prevent the developed toner of the reference density pattern, which is an unnecessary toner image, from adhering to the transfer belt 27.

感光体ドラム4上のトナー像を転写紙41に転写する。That is, for example, as shown in FIGS. 2(a) and 2(b) showing the transfer process, the belt charger 29 is activated depending on the potential of the latent image and the toner polarity.
With the corona polarity set as a constant condition, the transfer charger 30
is set to OFF in the non-image area and ON in the image area,
The toner image on the photosensitive drum 4 is transferred onto a transfer paper 41.
このようにして、不要のトナー像42(基準濃度パター

とし、画像域ではトナー極性と逆極性として転写用帯電
器30に入力をして、不要のトナー像を転写ベルトに付
着させないようにする。Furthermore, since the belt charger (pre-charger) 29 is used to ensure that the transfer paper is transported by adhering it to the transfer belt 27, it is necessary to ensure that the transfer paper is transported by some other means. If this is done, the belt charger 29 can be omitted, as shown in FIG. 3, which shows a part of FIG. in this case,
The potential of the latent image on the first photoreceptor drum 4 is set positive (or negative), the polarity of the toner is set negative (or positive), the transfer charger 30 is set negative (or positive) in the non-image area, and the polarity of the toner is set negative (or positive) in the non-image area. So correct (
or negative). That is, for example, as shown in FIGS. 4(a) and 4(b) showing the transfer process, the toner image on the photosensitive drum is transferred by switching the polarity of the transfer charger 30 according to the potential of the latent image and the toner polarity. It is to be transferred onto paper 41. In this way, the polarity is the same as the toner polarity in the non-image area, and the polarity opposite to the toner polarity is inputted to the transfer charger 30 in the image area, thereby preventing unnecessary toner images from adhering to the transfer belt. .

ベルト27の汚れ発生を防止することができる。In a two-color copying machine, the transfer paper is transferred to the first photoreceptor drum 4.
.. Since it is necessary to overlay and transfer images accurately in synchronization with the rotation of the second photosensitive drum 7, the transfer paper is transferred using a transfer bell 1 to a device provided with a belt charger 29. However, according to the present invention, the image toner of the reference density pattern is transferred to the transfer belt, which places too much load on the belt cleaning device, and therefore leaves stains on the transfer belt 27. However, according to the present invention, the image toner of the reference density pattern is transferred to the transfer belt. Since the image toner remains on the photoreceptor drum without being transferred to the transfer belt and is cleaned by the photoreceptor cleaning device 16 with high cleaning performance, it is possible to prevent the transfer belt 27 from becoming stained.
