| 20080267680 | Electrically conductive pattern forming apparatus - An electrically conductive pattern forming apparatus has process disposition which reduces contamination of a pattern or inside of the apparatus due to backflow and leakage of a liquid material such as a developing agent or a cleaning liquid. A developing device and a cleaning device in the electrically conductive pattern forming apparatus using an electrophotographic method are disposed in a lower region about the center of a photoreceptor, a solvent removing process is disposed in a region in which the photoreceptor rotates upward, and a transfer liquid applying process and an electrostatic transfer process are disposed above the center of the photoreceptor and in a region in which the photoreceptor rotates downward. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20090175665 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECYCLING CLEANING LIQUID IN A PRINTER - A system for recycling a liquid in a printer comprises a first reservoir configured for collecting possibly polluted liquid to be recycled from the printer, a filtration system configured for purifying the liquid received from the first reservoir, and a second reservoir configured for collecting the liquid from the filtration system, wherein overflow from the second reservoir is directed to the first reservoir. | 07-09-2009 |
| 20090185843 | Image Forming Device and Cleaning Device - An image forming device includes a development section provided with a developer carrier adapted to perform development using a liquid developer including a carrier liquid and toner particles, an image carrier adapted to carry an image developed by the development section, an cleaning roller of the image carrier having contact with the image carrier, an cleaning blade of the cleaning roller of the image carrier having contact with the cleaning roller of the image carrier at one of a position on an imaginary line of an intersection between an imaginary plane passing through a center of a rotational axis of the cleaning roller of the image carrier and perpendicular to an imaginary vertical plane and a surface of the cleaning roller of the image carrier and a position lower than the imaginary line in a vertical direction, and an image carrier recovery reservoir adapted to store the liquid developer recovered by the cleaning blade of the cleaning roller of the image carrier. | 07-23-2009 |
| 20120121307 | CLEANING DEVICE, IMAGE FORMATION DEVICE, AND IMAGE FORMATION METHOD - A cleaning device includes a cleaning roller which contacts an intermediate transfer belt for carrying an image developed using a liquid developer, a cleaning roller which contacts the other cleaning roller and has a greater axial length than the other cleaning roller, and a rubber blade which contacts the cleaning roller and has a greater axial length than the cleaning roller. | 05-17-2012 |
| 20120237276 | Image Forming Apparatus - An image forming apparatus of the invention includes a carrier solution application roller that rotates centering on a rotary shaft and applies a carrier solution to a transfer roller after an image of a liquid developer including toner and the carrier solution is transferred to a transfer medium, a transfer roller cleaning roller, supported by a cleaning member support portion through a rotary shaft, which removes toner remaining in the transfer roller, and a carrier solution application roller of which the amount of movement is larger than the amount of movement of the transfer roller cleaning roller when the cleaning member support portion is rotated. Even when the transfer roller moves, satisfactory cleaning properties are secured without breaking a mutual positional relationship by facilitating mutual positioning between the transfer roller and the transfer roller cleaning roller. | 09-20-2012 |
| 20140016976 | Digital Printing Apparatus and Method with Improved Toner Removal - A digital printing method using liquid toner, the method comprising transporting liquid toner comprising charged, caked and compacted imaging particles on a first member ( | 01-16-2014 |
| 20180024492 | A CLEANING SYSTEM FOR CLEANING A PHOTOCONDUCTIVE SURFACE | 01-25-2018 |
