摘要:
An image forming technique employing a screen photosensitive medium having therein a plurality of fine openings. Using such screen photosensitive medium an electrostatic latent image is formed on an electric charge retainable member to be modulated under the action of a modulated corona ion stream. A non-image area can be formed on the member to be modulated by providing an ion stream blocking member between a modulation ion source and the screen photosensitive medium to block the ion stream flowing from the ion source to the screen photosensitive medium at a desired and limited area. The present invention enables to form a very sharp boundary between image area and non-image area.

A light scanning device includes a housing, a plurality of permeable members, a plurality of cleaning members, a plurality of cleaning holders, a linear member, and a driving unit. The plurality of permeable members close the respective plurality of the emission ports. The plurality of cleaning holders extend over the plurality of the permeable members adjacent to one another. The plurality of the cleaning holders each have a holding unit that holds at least the two cleaning members. The linear member is connected to the plurality of the cleaning holders. The driving unit causes the linear member to run circularly. The cleaning members each slide on the corresponding permeable member in association with the linear member running circularly. The cleaning holders each connected to the linear member at a center of the holding unit in an extending direction of the holding unit.
摘要:
An electrophotographic sensitizing screen having a great number of apertures, wherein at least an insulating layer and a conductive layer are successively formed on a conductive mesh, is disclosed. These apertures are regularly arranged at such an angle as not to produce moire fringes with respect to a light image projected on the screen.

In an electrophotographic copying machine of the type which transfers an electrostatic latent image formed on a photosensitive element, usually comprising a conductive base and a photoconductive layer thereon, onto a recording member, an electric dust collector is provided to clean the air flowing in the vicinity of a corona discharger and the photosensitive member. In order to direct the dust-free air, there is provided an air flow passage and a blower such as a fan. The corona discharger and the electric dust collector may be constructed integrally or separately. All of the air in the copying machine may be made dust-free.
