- ABSTRACT An electrophotographic method for reproducing a colour picture on a recording paper sheet of an original picture by repeating an image-forming process a plurality of times in which in imparting an electric charge to the entire surface of the recording paper sheet in each image-forming process the quantity of the electric charge imparted to the recording paper sheet in an image-forming process is made higher than that in the preceding image-forming process to bring the charged voltage of the recording paper sheet around its saturated value.
- the present invention relates to a colour electrophotographic method, and more particularly to an improvement in a method of imparting an electric charge to an electrophotographic sensitive paper sheet (hereinafter referred simply to as sensitive paper or recording paper) in a colour electrophotographic method.
- a reproduced colour picture is obtained by superimposing images of, for example, three colours, yellow, magenta and cyan, or four colours, yellow, magenta, cyan and black of an original colour picture on a sensitive paper.
- a powder developer or a liquid developer is utilized for developing a charged latent image on a sensitive paper.
- the latter developer provides a better reproduced picture.
- the colour electrophotography utilizing a liquid developer (wet type electrophotography) is carried out as follows:
- the entire surface of a sensitive paper is charged uniformly through an electric charge generator or an electrostatic generator, and then the charged sensitive paper is exposed to the original picture through a first colour separation filter, for example a blue filter.
- a charged latent image corresponding to the first colour separation filter is formed on the sensitive paper.
- the sensitive paper carrying the charged latent image is immersed in a first developer solution of the complementary colour, yellow, of the first colour separation filter to allow the colour toner to adhere the charged latent image part of the sensitive paper.
- the colour toner is fixed to the sensitive paper to com plete a first image formation process.
- the above image-forming process is repeated a number of times of the necessary number of colours while replacing the colour separation filters and the developers to superimpose colour images on each other on the sensitive paper.
- a fixing process is performed after each developing process by passing the sensitive paper in a rinsing liquid and a drying liquid and by drying the sensitive paper, and then the next image-forming process is performed.
- a non-volatile liquid developer having a high viscosity of 2 to 3 cm stokes is utilized to simplify the fixing process, and the next colour image-forming process is started in the state that a layer of the liquid developer remains on the sensitive paper.
- a uniform charge impartation by the charge generator to the entire surface of the sensitive paper is performed as the first step of each image-forming process.
- the quantity of the charge to be imparted to the sensitive paper by the image-forming process is quite different from that in the preceding image-forming process.
- the quantity of the charge to be imparted to the sensitive paper by the image-forming process is quite different from that in the preceding image-forming process.
- the quantity of the electric charge imparted to the sensitive paper is maintained substantially constant. Consequently, the sensitive paper is subjected to the exposure step in an insufficiently charged state in one image-forming process, while in another image-forming process the sensitive paper is subjected to the exposure step in an overcharged state. As a result, the image formation is uneven from process to process, so that there is the disadvantage that the gradation or tone reproduction and the colour balance of the reproduced colour picture are poor.
- the sensitive paper generally consists of a base paper sheet and an overlying zinc oxide (ZnO) film to be endowed with an electrophotographic sensitive characteristic
- the sensitive paper has a semiconductor characteristic. Consequently, if the sensitive paper is over-charged, the decay or extinction characteristic ,of the charge becomes marked, so that a great difference occurs locally in the charged voltage on the sensitive paper depending on the local time intervals between the charging and the exposure, resulting in the disadvantage that unevenness occurs in a reproduced colour image.
- the sensitive paper partly breaks down to produce specks in a reproduced colour image.
- An object of the present invention is to provide an electrophotographic method of reproducing a colour picture from an original picture with a high reproducibility.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide an electrophotographic method of reproducing a colour picture improved in the uniformity of image formation in a plurality of image forming processes and improved in colour balance.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide an electrophotographic method of reproducing a colour picture with highly faithfully reproduced gradation or tone reproduction.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide an electrophotographic method of reproducing a colour picture with a low degree of colour unevenness.
- a still further object of the present invention is to provide an electrophotographic method of reproducing a colour picture with no specks resulting from the overcharging of the recording or sensitive paper.
- An electrophotographic method of reproducing a colour picture of the present invention which is performed by successively superimposing colour images on a recording paper sheet formed through plural image-forming processes controls the quantity of imparted electric charges over an entire surface of the recording paper sheet in an electric charge imparting step in each image-forming process in accordance with the electric charging characteristic or property of-the recording paper sheet in each image-forming process.
- an electrophotographic method of reproducing a colour picture of the present invention which is performed by successively superimposing colour images on a recording paper sheet formed through plural image-forming processes, controls charged volt-' age of the recording paper sheet over an entire surface of the recording paper sheet in an electric charge imparting step in each image forming process so that the charged voltage is rendered around its saturation value in the condition of the recording paper sheet in each image-forming process.

- the charge generator 30 consists of a core 32 connected to a high DC voltage source 100 and a grounded shield 34.
- the colour image of an original picuture 52 placed on a transparent support 50 is projected on the uniformly charged sensitive paper 12 through an exposing device 60.
- the rotation of the drum 10 and the travel of the transparent support50 in the direction of the arrow are synchronized by the controller 20.
- the transparent support 50 is moved by a motor 54 based on the synchronizing signal from the controller 20.
- the exposing device 60 consists of a light source 62 for illuminating the original picture 52, a lens 64, a reflector 66 for reflecting a reflected light image from the original picture 52 to the lens 64, and a colour separating filter device 68 for colour-separating the light from the lens 64.
- the colour separating filter device 68 consists of three kinds of colour seprating filters of, for example,

- the position of the developing device 40 shown in FIG. 1 is for the state that the developing step in the second image-forming process has been completed. In other words, the state that the magenta image based on the latent image on the sensitive paper 12 corresponding to the magenta part of the original picture 52 which is complementary to the green of the second colour separation filter is superimposed on the yellow image formed in the first imageforming process.
- the carried insulating liquid contained in the developer is carried on the surface of the sensitive paper 12 subjected to the developing step in each image-forming process, the carried insulating liquid is squeezed out and simultaneously therewith a colour toner is fixed to the sensitive paper 12 by a squeezing roller (fixing device) 70. Dirt or fouling on the squeezing roller is removed by a cleaning pad 72. Then the sensitive paper 12 is returned to the initial position to start the next image-forming process.
- the high DC voltage source in FIG. 1 is shown in a practical form.
- the primary winding 101 of a step-up I transformer 106 is connected with an AC source 102 through a inulti-contact switch 80, while the secondary winding 103 thereof is connected with a series circuit of a capacitor 104 and a rectifier 105.
- the supply of a high DC voltage to the core 32 of the electric charge generator 30 is made from the junction point 107 between the capacitor 104 and the rectifier 105.
- Curves I in FIGS. 2a and 2b are charged characteristics of the sensitive paper in the first image-forming process but not yet subjected to the developing step. Since the sensitive paper is not yet exposed to the developer, it is saturated in the charged voltage with a low voltage applied to the electric charge generator. Consequently, in the first image-forming process the movable contact 85 of the switch 80 is connected to the first fixed contact 81 by a signal from the controller 20 to apply a DC voltage V or V between the core 32 and the shield 34 of the charge generator 30 for imparting charges uniformly to the sensitive paper 12.

- the quantity of the charge imparted to the sensitive paper 12 per unit time is controlled to set the charged voltage of the sensitive paper 12 around the saturated value of the charged voltage in each image-forming process.
- points (b), (f), (c), (g), (d) and (h) on the curves II, III, and IV in FIGS. 2a and 2b corresponding to the applied voltages V V V V V and V,, respectively, are set at points slightly over the saturated charged voltages of the sensitive paper 12 in individual charge-forming processes.

- the charged characteristics of the sensitive paper 12 in the second and subsequent image-forming processes are similar to one another. Consequently, the present invention can even be achieved by only a twostep change-over of the quantity of the imparted charge per unit time instead of the four-step change-over described above. That is, it is possible that the voltage applied to the charge generator is taken to be V or V in the first image-forming process, and the voltages are taken to be V or V in the second and subsequent image-forming processes.
- the distance between the charge generator'30 and the sensitive paper 12 may be adjusted in each image-forming process.

- Curves I, II, III and IV are for the charged characteristics of the sensitive paper 12 in the first, second, third and fourth image-forming processes, respectively.
- the charged voltage of the sensitive paper 12 is set at the points (i), (j), (k) and (l) for individual image-forming processes which are slightly over the saturated charged voltages of the sensitive paper 12 in those processes.
- the absolute quantity of the charge imparted to the sensitive paper 12 is properly controlled depending on the state of the sensitive paper 12 in each imageforming process.
- even a two-step speed change-over from S to S can achieve the present invention in place of the four-step speed change-over.
- FIG. 4 is another example of the electric charge generator 30. Those parts of the charge generator 30 in FIG. 4 which perform similar functions to those in FIG. 1 are designated by the same reference numerals.
