  • Developer liquid dispensed from the tube 100 is I poured onto the surface 112 of blade 86, and upon the latter making engagement with the surface of rotating roller 52, is applied or metered onto the roller surface 58.
  • Metering blade member 86 together with the roller 52 having the specially prepared surface 58 delivers a controlled amount of developer fluid to a copy sheet being developed.
  • the blade member 86 wipes away excess developer fluid which in turn runs back into a trough 114 mounted beneath the applicator roller and metering blades.
  • the excess fluid is channeled through an opening 116 in trough 114, (FIG. 2), and through a screen-like filter 1 11 to the fluid reservoir 109 so that it may be reused.
  • the filter screen 111 serves to remove minute paper particles which may have found their way into the developer fluid during the development process, and which, if not removed, could eventually become lodged beneath the blade members, causing streaks along the surface of subsequently developed copy sheets. Cleaning of the filter screen 111 periodically to remove the paper particles build up thereon is desirable.
  • the surface 58 of the applicator roller 52 is specially prepared to carry a predetermined quantity of developer liquid used to develop diazo-sensitized copy sheets.
  • the texture or finish of the applicator roller 52 is important to the successful operation of the developer apparatus.
  • the amount of developer fluid retained on the roller surface 58 and carried to the copy sheet being developed is dependent on the surface characteristics of the roller. It has been found that the surface best suited for carrying the proper amount of liquid for development of dry-to-the-touch copy sheets is one of varying depths and sizes providing a predetermined degree of average center line smoothness expressed in terms of micro-inches in depth. It has been concluded that an applicator roller having a center line average smoothness in the range of 10 200 micro-inches provides a satisfactory finish according to the invention.
