Abstract:
A heat-producing element for a fixing device to carry out heat-fixing after a toner image having been formed using a pulverized toner is transferred on an image support, a heat-producing element for a fixing device in which a thin-leaf graphite-pulverized material of a volume specific resistance of 10−6 Ω·cm to less than 10−2 Ω·cm is incorporated in a heat-resistant resin as a conductive material.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a heat-producing fixing belt of a cylindrical shape which is composed of a heat-producing layer, an elastic layer, and a releasing layer in this sequential order from the inner side, and the heat-producing layer contains a polyimide resin and fabric containing carbon fiber and a pair of electrodes to supply power to the heat-producing layer making contact with the fabric containing carbon fiber are provided on both ends of the cylindrical shape.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a heating fixing belt and a fixing device by which good long-term durability is achieved, and a process for forming the heating fixing belt.The heating fixing belt comprises a resistance heating layer formed of a resin in which at least a conductive substance is dispersed, a parting layer laminated on the resistance heating layer and a pair of electrodes for supplying electric power to the resistance heating layer, which are respectively stacked and provided on both end portions of the resistance heating layer in such a manner that at least parts thereof come into contact with the resistance heating layer, wherein the electrodes are each composed of a metal mesh sheet. In the heating fixing belt, the metal mesh sheet forming the electrode preferably has an aperture ratio of 10 to 60.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A grinding tool wherein a thermocontrating tube on which is formed a partial layer pattern in which parts having no abrasive are scattered and separated, the abrasive part is applied to cover the peripheral surface of a shaped base and is then heated to closely adhere to the surface of the base.
Abstract:
This device comprises a cylindrical member integrally made of an elastic material for covering the inside periphery of a pipe joint, belt members impregnated with a bonding agent to be squeezed out by pressure, and circular expanding members for expanding said cylindrical member when positioned inside the cylindrical member and subsequently expanded. The respective belt members are wound around the outside peripheral surface of the cylindrical member at its longitudinal ends and the respective expanding members are brought into contact with the inside peripheral surface of the cylindrical member at both its longitudinal ends, so that by radially expanding the cylindrical member at both its longitudinal ends by the respective expanding members, the respective belt members are pressed against the inside peripheral portions of the pipes on both sides of the joint for squeezing out the bonding agent from the belt members by such pressure and thereby attaining an airtight and watertight bonding between the outside peripheral surface of the cylindrical member at both its longitudinal ends and the inside peripheral surfaces of the pipes.
