- PATENTEU 7 SHEEI 2 0F 3 INVENTORS, MASAMICHI SATO OSAMU FUKUSHIMA SEIJI MATSUMOTO ATTORNEYS.
- This invention relates to an apparatus for liquid developing continuous web of electrophotographic photosensitive material provided with electrostatic latent image, and particularly to an apparatus capable of providing uniform development even under intermittent advancement.
- the apparatus of this inven-- tion is capable of (a) extending the length of the developing path without substantially enlarging the dimensure of light to obtain electrostatic charge distribution according to the pattern of original image (hereinafter referred to as electrostatic latent image) and bringing said layer into contact with liquid developer comprising colored charged particle (hereinafter referred to as toner) dispersed in insulating liquid thereby depositing said colored charged particle selectively onto said electrostatic latent image.
- electrostatic latent image liquid developer comprising colored charged particle (hereinafter referred to as toner) dispersed in insulating liquid thereby depositing said colored charged particle selectively onto said electrostatic latent image.
- toner colored charged particle
- the developed image is apt to become uneven particularly when the images are formed atfixed intervals on an electrophotographic material of continuous web form.
- the present invention is to provide an apparatus capable of forming even image faithful to the latent image even in such case
- a developingelectrode is commonly employed in order to suppress edge effect (a phenomenon of insufficient development in the central portion of a wide image area which should be developed to a high uniform density) and halo phenomenon (a phenomenon observed as lower density portion in the peripheral part of low density area adjacent to high density area) which are inherent to electrophotography.
- the developing electrode consists of an electroconductive plate arranged in parallel to the surface holding the latent image thereon for the purpose of increasing the number of flux of electric force and absorbing said flux thereby obtaining an electric field distributed corresponding to the distribution of electrostatic charge. It is generally accepted that the effect of developing electrode for suppressing the edge effect and halo phenomenon becomes more marked as the distance between the developing electrode and the surface holding the latent image (hereinafter referred to as the distance of developing electrode) becomes smaller. It is practically, however, difficult to maintain said distance of developing electrode at a constant value over the whole area of developing electrode, and particularly when a small distance of developing electrode is employed, local fluctuation of said distance will lead to the uneven density in the developed image.
- each image is brought into facing relationship with at least two developing electrodes until the completion of the development, with fresh liquid developer for each developing electrode thereby to cancel eventual fluctuation formed in each development stage.
- Another advantage of this invention is that the developed image is free from streak, which is comet-tail like stain caused by deposition of toner along the flow of liquiddeveloper (on the downstream side.) Though the (i.e. larger effect of developing electrode) and at larger relative velocity between the surface holding'the latent image and the liquid developer.
- An object of this invention is to realize development by alternating the developing stages with small distance of developing electrode and with no relative velocity and those with larger distance and with certain relative velocity thereby obtaining image free from such streak and uneven development and exactly corresponding to the distribution of electrostatic charge of latent image.
- the position of continuous sheet of electrophotographic material is determined by passing said material around said drums alternatively.
- the position of surface of said electrophotographic material can be exactly defined by winding flexible continuous sheet of electrophotographic material around a drum under suitable tension without slackening in a direction perpendicular to the surface of said material.
- the surface holding the latent image is maintained at a constant distance from the part working as the developing electrode, whereas said surface is maintained' at a constant distance from fixed developing electrodes arranged in facing relationship with said support drums when said material is wound around said support drums.
- each drum is preferred to be rotated by the friction with the electrophotographic material therearound. It is naturally possible, however, to provide separate driving means to drive each drum at a peripheral speed identical to the advancing speed of said electrophotographic material.
- the electrophotographic material is driven or standstilled by means of facing its latent surface to the developing electrode drums.
- the development is realized by supplying liquid developer in the space between the surface of developing electrode drum and the surface holding the latent image of continuous sheet electrophotographic material while said material is advanced and by retaining said liquid developer within said space while said material is in standstill.
- sa-id material is driven so as to have no relative velocity between these two elements both when said material is advanced or brought to standstill. As the result streak phenomenon does not appear even if the development is carried out with reduced distance of developing electrode.
- a fixed developing electrode is provided at a certain distance from the surface holding the latent image.
- the advancing of electrophotographic material on the support drum will generate relative velocity between the surface holding the latent image and the developing electrode and thus will easily lead to the formation of streaks.
- the streak phenomenon is prevented by increasing the distance of developing electrode compared with the case of drumshaped developing electrode.
- the latent image can be rendered visible exactly corresponding to the distribution of electrostatic charge.
- FIG. 1 showing an example of electrophotographic apparatus provided with the developing mechanism embodying this invention
- an electrophotographic material 1 in roll state with the photosensitive layer thereof outward represented are an electrophotographic material 1 in roll state with the photosensitive layer thereof outward, a pair of pinch rollers 2 and 3 composed for example of rubber rollers for advancing said electrophotographic material by a determined amount, a dancer roller 4 shaped for example as shown in FIG. 5 to advance said electrophotographic material by pinching said material between the flanges 50 thereby giving a tension to said material to prevent slackening thereof, and a pinch roller 5 preferably made of elastic material such as rubber to press said electrophotographic material against a drun 6 which advances said electrophotographic material intermittently to define the position of image in longitudinal direction.
- Said electrophotographic material can be driven for example by means of combination of sprocket provided at the extremities of said drum 6 and perforations provided at the edge portions of said electrophotographic material.
- Such combination provides registration not only in the longitudinal but also transversal direction, and is particularly suitable for obtained well registered image in case of multi-color reproduction.
- For registration also available are other known methods such as by advancing the photosensitive material by determined amount by optical mark recognition in longitudinal direction and displacement of optical system in transversal direction.
- This mechanism is also provided with a corona discharge device 7 for effecting corona discharge on the surface of photosensitive layer while said electrophotographic material is advanced to endow an even surface charge on said surface, an optical system 8 to project the original image on said photosensitive layer thereby modulating the surface charge on said photosensitve layer correspohding to the original image to form latent image, and guide rollers 9 and 10 made for example of rubber for guiding the electrophotographic material after exposure toward the developing mechanism.
- a corona discharge device 7 for effecting corona discharge on the surface of photosensitive layer while said electrophotographic material is advanced to endow an even surface charge on said surface
- an optical system 8 to project the original image on said photosensitive layer thereby modulating the surface charge on said photosensitve layer correspohding to the original image to form latent image
- guide rollers 9 and 10 made for example of rubber for guiding the electrophotographic material after exposure toward the developing mechanism.
- electrophotographic material can be effectively moistened, prior to the contact with liquid developer, with highly insulating liquid in order to prevent the penetration of liquid developer into said material, and such moistening operation can be conveniently carried out between the rollers 9 and 10.
- the electrophotographic material is wound around the developing electrode drums with the latent image surface thereof inward, while wound around the support drums with said surface outward.
- the support drums are provided with developing electrodes 17 and 18 shaped as shown in FIG. 3.
- the developing electrode drum consists, as shown in FIG. 3, of end portions 302 with larger diameter and middle portion 301 with smaller diameter. Said end portions 302 with larger diameter support the edge portions of electrophotographic material, while said middle portion 301 with smaller diameter faces the latent surface of said material with a small distance to work as the developing electrode.
- the distance of developing electrode is determined by the difference of diameter of the portion and middle portion.
- the portions with larger diameter 302 are provided with spiral recesses of opposite directions in order to prevent slackening of electrophotographic material in the transversal direction thereof which might lead to uneven distance of developing electrode.
- the support drums can be made of flat cylinder, but is preferably provided with spiral ditches of opposite directions from the center to the ends thereof. Naturally said ditches should not be large enough to cause deformation of electrophotographic material which leads to the formation of ditch pattern on the developedimage due to uneven developing. Since the fixed developing electrode is mounted outside the support drum and since a distance exists between the fixed developing electrode and the latent image surface on the electrophotographic material wound around the support drum, the fixed developing electrode plus the support drum are larger than the developing electrode drums. The electrophotographic material advanced intermi'ttently is brought to standstill on each support drum and developing electrode drum when said material reaches exact facing relationship with the developing electrode. In FIG.
- the image areas on the electrophotographic material are shown by the hatched portions 19-30
- the developing section containing developing electrode drums, support drums and supply nozzles is mounted in a container39 filled with liquid developer. Said liquid developer is removed from an outlet 40 provided at the bottom of said container and cycled to the nozzle through a pump (not represented).
- the liquid developer is retained between the electrode surface of developing electrode drum and the latent image surface of said material without relative velocity thereto thereby enabling to realize development exactly corresponding to the charge distribution of latent image even with small distance of developing electrode.
- the latent image surface will have a relative velocity with respect to the developing electrode and therefore to the liquid developer when said material is advanced since the developing electrode is fixed in this case. Consequently, in this case, it is necessary to employ a larger distance of developing electrode in order to prevent streak phenomenon.
- cleaners 41-44 are provided for cleaning the electrode surface of developing electrode drums.
- cleaners are provided because particularly small distance of developing electrode on developing electrode drums is apt to induce deposition of reversed toner image of latent image on said drums.
- Said cleaner can be effectively composed of soft material such as sponge or felt pressed against the surface of developing electrode, or of a rubber roller pressed against said electrode as shown in FIG. 1.
- a fixed developing electrode is provided between the developing electrode rollers 13 and 14 so as to face the latent image surface of electrophotographic material.
- the distance of said developing electrode should be made considerably large as the distance between the latent image surface of electrophotographic material and the developing electrode cannot be defined exactly. Further, this developing electrode can be dispensed with in certain cases.
- the distances of developing electrodes of 0.5, 2, 0.3, 2, 0.2, 2 and 0.1 mm in this order.
- the support drum and the larger diameter portions 302 of the developing electrode drums are preferred to be made of metal, plastics or rubber while the smaller diameter portions of said developing electrode drums are preferred to be made of eleetroconductive material such as metal. 1
- washing solution 55 In the rinse section provided are washing solution 55, a washing solution container 56,- washing solution nozzles 51-54 and an outlet 57 provided at the bottom of the washing solution container, from which the washing solution is cycled to said noz zles through a pump (not represented).
- the electrophotographic material washed with the washing solution 55 is driven by a pair of pinch rollers 49 and 50, and taken up on a roller 58.
- Said rollers and 49 are preferably made of smooth metal roller and rubber roller, respectively.
- the take-up roller 58 is preferably drivenby means of a constant-tension motor.
- said material in case of forming images at a fixed interval on a continuous web of electrophotographic material, said material is advanced intermittently in the exposure and developing sections, and when said material is brought to sandstill in the liquid developer each image area is kept in a fixed position by means of a support drum or a developing electrode drum to face a developing elec' trode with a prescribed distance thereto in order to prevent any unevenness during the developing or processing.
- Winding around a cylindrical surface facilitates to obtain uniform distance of developing electrode and,
- FIG. 1 Although the example shown in FIG. 1 is provided with six support drums, it is naturally also possible to extend the length of developing section by providing a larger number of support drums vertically or by providing additional drums horizontally after the drum 16 in stead of directly connecting to the rinse section.
- This developing apparatus is also capable of effecting so-called reversal development by means of toner particles charged in the same sign as the electrostatic charge composing the electrostatic latent image.
- the developing electrodes are supplied with suitable electric potential while the support material of the electrophotographic material is grounded. Also it is possible to decrease the potential applied in correspondence with the attenuationof the charge composing the electrostatic latent image by applying different potentials to the developing electrodes.
- FIG. 2 shows another example of this invention, in which drums are arranged horizontally in a line.
- support drums 201, 203, 205 and 207 and developing electrode drums 202, 204 and 206 which are similar to those employed in the apparatus of FIG. 1, fixed developing electrodes 208 and 209 which may also be provided for the support drums 201 and 207, and nozzles 210-214 for liquid developer.
- the liquid developer 219 is contained in a container 220, and is supplied from an outlet provided at the bottom thereof to said nozzles 210-214 through a pump (not represented).
- the continuous sheets of electrophotographic material is provided with image areas as shown by black portions, and the dimentional relationship of the components of the developing section is determined so as that all the image areas are brought into facing relationship with developing electrodes when said material is brought to standstill in the developing section.
- the supply of liquid developer is realized only when the same material is advanced.
- This section is also provided with guide rollers 215-218 similar to those employed in the apparatus shown in FIG. 1, and a washing solution nozzle, of which performance and effect are omitted here as they are quite similar to those in case of the apparatus shown in FIG. 1.
- FIG. 6 An example of such apparatus is shown as a cross-sectional side view in FIG. 6, in which the electrophotographic material forms, different from the case of FIG. 1, a loop on the way to the roller 9 post-exposure.
- the guide rollers 801 and 803 can be similar to the roller 9.
- a dancer roller 802 similarly shaped as the roller 4 in FIG. 1 provides a loop for converting intermittent movement 'into continuous movement. In this case itis necessary to drive the electrophotographic material continuously by means for example of providing a pinch roll er 804 pressed against the roller 9.
- a fixed roller is employed instead of the dancer roller 48 in FIG.
- the driving of the material is realized by means of a pair of pinch rollers 49 and 50 without'providing the pinch roller 804.1n case of continuous advancement in the developing section, the positions of components can be determined irrespective of the location of image areas. Stated differently, it is not necessary, in this case, that the image areas shown by the hatched portions are simultaneously brought into facing relationship with the developing electrodes, as is obvious from the continuous advancement of the electrophotographic material. Though the loop of the electrophotographic material in FIG. 6 is made in air, it is also possible to make this loop in the liquid developer.
- the surface holding said latent image is made to face to at least two developing electrodes.
- Fresh liquid developer is supplied each time when the latent image is brought into facing relationship with new developing electrode.
- the continuous web is supported around developing electrode drums and support drums provided alternatively.
- the support drums are provided respectively with fixed developing electrode curved coaxially thereto and mounted with a relatively large distance thereto.
- electrophotographic material in the foregoing explanation is not necessarily photosensitive, but can generally be a continuous flexible web holding electrostatic latent image thereon.
- This invention is characterized by following four fea tures:
- Latent image surface is facing two or more pieces of developing electrodes at least, when developing long web having electrostatic latent image.
- Each of images is facing to developing electrode at motionless time in case of intermittent driving when developing electrophotographic material.
- Electrophotographic material is not always necessary to have sensitization, and flexible long belt bearing electrostatic latent image.
- An apparatus for developing an electrophotographic, continuous web material which comprises (1) developing electrode drums comprising (a) end portions with a first diameter to hold the edge portions of said electrophotographic continuous web material and (b) an electroconductive middle portion with a diameter smaller than said first diameter facing the surface holding the electrostatic latent image of said electro photographic material with a small distance therebetween, (2) support drums in substantially direct contact with the rear surface of said electrophotographic material, said developing electrode drums and said support drums being altematingly disposed in a container for liquid developer so that said material is wound on said drums to make approximately semi-circular contact with each of said drums, (3) curved, fixed developing electrodes disposed along the periphery of said support drums, (4) means for driving said electrophotographic material under tension, and (5) means for supplying liquid developer between said electrophotographic material and at least one of said fixed developing electrodes and said smaller diameter portion of said developing electrode drums along the advancing direction of said electrophotographic material.
