DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention involves adhering toner to an electrostatic latent image formed on the surface of a photoreceptor, transferring the toner to copy paper under the application of a transfer electric field, and then separating the copy paper. Transfer of an electrophotographic copying machine designed to convey
The purpose of this is to improve the separation and conveyance device, and its purpose is to transfer the leading edge of the copy paper once to the copy paper by the transfer charger when the copy paper is dielectrically separated by the conductive separation and conveyance member. The objective is to ensure separation even if a transferred toner image is reversely transferred onto a photoreceptor and a transfer defect occurs, and to prevent a transfer defect from occurring once the toner image has been separated.

The inventor of the present application first adsorbed toner to an electrostatic latent image formed on the surface of a photoreceptor, transferred the toner image to copy paper by applying a transfer electric field, and then transferred the copy paper to a conductive belt. They brought the conductive belt close to each other and generated a charge of the same polarity as the toner image on the copy paper on the conductive belt by electrostatic dielectric action, and separated the copy paper by adsorption to the conductive belt. As a result, the charge on the copy paper leaks through the conductive belt, reducing the number of electric lines of force between the copy paper and the transferred toner, and reducing the binding force of the toner particles to the copy paper. Therefore, the toner is reversely transferred to the surface of the photoreceptor, which has a strong suction force, and there has been a drawback that transfer omissions tend to occur in image areas such as line images where a large amount of toner adheres.

In the present invention, the conductive separating and conveying member described above is grounded through a resistor, and only the separating action is performed reliably at the leading edge of the copy paper, and once the copy paper is separated, the transferring action is reliably performed to prevent transfer omissions. It is designed to eliminate the drawbacks of the conventional technology.

Next, the effect will be explained. When a polar transfer electric field is applied to the copy paper 4 by the transfer charger 5, the polar toner on the photosensitive drum 1 is transferred to the copy paper 4. Then the copy paper 4
approaches the conductive belt 6, the capacitance between the copy paper 4 and the conductive belt 6 is C 1 (t), and the capacitance between the copy paper 4 and the photosensitive drum 1 is C 2
(t), and the capacitance between the conductive belt 6 and the photoreceptor drum 1 is C 3 (t), then the conductive belt 6
The equivalent circuit between the potential V(t) of the conductive belt 6 and the potential V(t) of the conductive belt 6 is as shown in FIG.
The potential is zero at the time of contact with the conductive belt 6, and as the copy paper 4 gradually comes into contact with the conductive belt 6, the potential gradually increases. Repeat this for each copy sheet. By the way, the separation performance is good when the potential of the conductive belt 6 is zero or close to zero, but for the reason mentioned above, the polarity of toner once transferred to the copy paper 4 is reversed to the photoreceptor drum 1 at the moment of separation. Easy to photograph. However, this phenomenon occurs when copy paper 4
This is done only at the leading edge of the copy paper 4 that is separated from the photoreceptor drum 1. After the leading edge of the copy paper 4 is separated, the electrical potential of the conductive belt 6 gradually increases in polarity as shown in FIG. Since this is induced, no transfer omission occurs in the image portion beyond a certain width (7 to 8 mm) from the leading edge of the copy paper 4. In addition, the peak voltage varies depending on the uneven charging of each copy paper, and the separation performance is unstable. However, since the leading edge of the copy paper 4 is separated, if the layout is devised, such as by positioning the conductive belt 6 downward, Separation can be performed smoothly.

According to the present invention, since the conductive separating and conveying member is grounded through the resistor, the separating performance is somewhat unstable, but it is characterized in that it is possible to reliably prevent toner from being transferred during separation. It is.
