摘要： A squeeze roller elevating apparatus of a liquid electrophotographic printer for selectively pressing a photoreceptor belt, which is installed at a belt frame for circulation, by elevating a squeeze roller. The apparatus includes a housing fixed at the belt frame, a squeeze frame installed in the housing and operative to elevatingly support the squeeze roller, a first elevating member installed at the squeeze frame for elevating movement, a second elevating member installed at the squeeze frame for elevating movement by being interlocked with the elevating movement of the first elevating member and moving the squeeze frame upward so that the squeeze roller presses the photoreceptor belt while ascending, a first spring coupling the first elevating member and the second elevating member to be interlocked with one another, a second spring coupling the second elevating member and the squeeze frame to be interlocked with one another, and an elevator which elevates the first elevating member. Thus, since the print mode, the "drip-line" mode, and the stand-by mode are performed as the squeeze roller installed at the squeeze frame is elevated, a reactionary force generated when the photoreceptor belt is pressed can be prevented from being transferred to the main frame.

摘要： In an image forming apparatus, a supply roller 4 supplies a liquid developer to the photo-conductive substance of a photosensitive drum or belt prior to an electrostatic latent image forming process. The supply roller 4 is applied with a voltage dentical in polarity with the charge of toner in the liquid developer, and the liquid developer is uniformly supplied to the surface of a photo-conductive substance to form a liquid developer layer. An exposure unit 6 selectively exposes the photo-conductive substance from the upside of the liquid developer layer in accordance with the image information, to thereby weaken an adhesion of the toner in an exposed area of the liquid developer to the photo-conductive substance. A removing roller 8 is applied with a voltage opposite in polarity to the toner charge to attract and recover the toner weakened in the adhesion by an electric field. The developed image caused by the liquid developer which has remained on the surface of the photo-conductive substance without being recovered is transferred to a recording medium 11 by a transfer roller 13.

摘要： An alignment device for a developing roller and a squeegee roller of an image forming apparatus. The alignment device includes a first supporting block for supporting the shaft of a first backup roller which in turn is disposed opposite to the squeegee roller with a photosensitive belt therebetween; and a second supporting block for fixing the shaft of a developing roller and enabling development by the developing roller, and for supporting the shaft of a second backup roller which in turn is disposed opposite to the developing roller with the photosensitive belt therebetween. A roller frame is provided for fixing the shaft of the squeegee roller, and for supporting the first supporting block and the second supporting block while surrounding a portion of the second supporting block. An elastic member is installed between the first and second supporting blocks for adjusting the centers of the supporting blocks. In the above image forming apparatus, since the developing roller and a corresponding backup roller are supported by an integral, one-piece supporting block, the assembly tolerance present in a conventional block is avoided. When shafts of backup rollers are seated at grooves of the respective supporting blocks, an error in the horizontal position is compensated for by an elastic force of an elastic member installed between the supporting blocks, and the supporting blocks are precisely centered. Accordingly, there is an advantage in that a developing roller and a squeegee roller can be precisely aligned with the respective backup rollers.
