Patent EP-1333335-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ENOKI SHIGEKAZU
IPC: G03G13/09
Filed: 2002-12-19
Abstract: A developing method and apparatus of the present invention
develops a latent image formed on an image carrier (1) with
a two-ingredient type developer, which consists of toner
grains and carrier grains retaining the toner grains
thereon, deposited on a developer carrier (111a) in the form of
brush chains. Assume that the brush chains on the
developer carrier has a height of h as measured at a zero
field point where the magnetic field formed by a main magnet
is zero, and that a gap for development that is the shortest
distance between the developer carrier and the image
carrier is a, then a and h are equal to each other. Image
quality is estimated by varying the combination of an angle
 between the gap and the zero field point, the outside
diameter of the image carrier and the outside diameter of
the developer carrier and the height h. A desirable or
an optimum range of the results of estimation are selected
to set various conditions.
A developing method is claimed which sets the toner grains free when the
carrier grains start rising to form a brush along the magnetic line of
force, due to the centrifugal force acting thereon. A mode of
develepment is provided in which the toner grain present in a non-image
portion of the image carier are returned toward the carrier grains
forming the brush chains.
