preparation example Construction

[0126] For the preparation of toner mother particles, known wet methods and dry methods can be used. For example, the following methods can be used: a mixing pulverization method in which a binder resin, a colorant and, if necessary, a release agent, a charge control agent, etc. are mixed, pulverized, and classified; A method in the shape of particles; an emulsion polymerization method in which a polymerizable monomer for providing a binder resin is emulsion-polymerized, and the resulting dispersion is mixed with a dispersion in which a coloring agent is dispersed and a release agent and One or more optional dispersions of a charge control agent etc. are mixed and then heated to cause them to aggregate and fuse to obtain a toner; a suspension polymerization method in which a polymerizable monomer for obtaining a binder resin is combined with a colorant and, if necessary, a solution of a release agent and a charge control agent, etc., suspended in an aqueous solvent and polymer...

Embodiment approach

[0226] For the present exemplary embodiment, the "interconnected cell structure" refers to a structure in which a plurality of cells is contained and adjacent gas cells are connected to each other.

[0227] In addition, for the present exemplary embodiment, "hardness" is measured by the following method. The material constituting the porous layer 16B was cut into a sheet of 400 mm high x 400 mm wide x 50 mm thick, and a load was applied to the central portion of the sliced ​​sheet using a compression jig with a diameter of 200 mm. The force required to compress the thickness by 25% is taken as hardness in the present invention. The force required for compression was measured using a load measuring instrument (MODEL-1311) manufactured by AIKOH.

[0228] The hardness of the porous layer 16B may be 150N-500N, preferably 170N-450N, more preferably 190N-400N. When the hardness is within these ranges, the cleaning roller 16 has sufficient cleaning ability, and inorganic particle a...

Abstract

A imaging equipment comprises: image retaining member, charging member, latent image forming unit, developing unit, transfer unit, elimination unit and aggregate forming unit. The developing unit develops static latent image of the image retaining member by utilizing developing agent including toner and carrier; the toner includes additive of first inorganic granule with average grain diameter of80nm-300nm; the carrier includes core material with magnetic powder dispersed in resin and resin clad for wrapping the core material; the aggregate forming unit contacts the surface of charging member and rotates following charging member so as to remove attachments including the first inorganic granule from surface of charging member and form aggregate including the removed first inorganic granule.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an imaging device. Background technique [0002] Image forming apparatuses using electrophotographic systems are known. In such an image forming apparatus, the surface of an image holding member such as a photoreceptor for holding an electrostatic latent image is charged by an electrostatic charging device, and an electrostatic latent image is formed on the charged image holding member. Then, the electrostatic latent image is developed with a developer, thereby forming a toner image on the image holding member. The toner image formed on the image holding member is transferred onto a recording medium (directly onto the recording medium, or via a transfer roller), and then fixed onto the recording medium. Attachments such as residual toner and paper dust on the image holding member are removed by a cleaning device. [0003] For the charging of the image holding member by the charging device, in order to suppress the am...
