に現像剤を感光体から迅速に離す方法に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a magnetic development method for an electronic copying machine.
More particularly, the present invention relates to a method for rapidly removing developer material from a photoreceptor when not being used for development.

関するものである。Prior Art In electronic copying machines, the developing machine is placed close to the photoreceptor, but in color copying machines that are equipped with multiple developing machines and develop each color separately, color mixing and latent image problems occur. To prevent destruction, it is necessary to separate undeveloped color developer from the photoreceptor.
Therefore, as a method to prevent unnecessary developer from coming into contact with the photoreceptor after development, a method of separating the developing machine body from the photoreceptor and a method of removing the developer from the developing roll have been proposed, but the present invention is directed to the latter method. It is about the method.

In this method, the developer is removed from the developing section by rotating the transport roll in the opposite direction while rotating the transport roll.

という欠点がある。 FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an example of a developing machine used in this method. Inside the developing machine 1 are a developing roll 3, a transport roll 4, and a blender 5.
are arranged rotatably. A developer regulating plate 6 is provided close to the developing roll 3 to regulate the height of the magnetic brush. When the development is completed and the rotation of the transport roll 4 is stopped, the developer is not supplied to the development roll 3, and as the development roll rotates, the developer on the circumferential surface falls. The accumulated excess developer is gradually supplied to the magnetic roll and forms a magnetic brush. Therefore, the developing roll 3
It takes time for all the developer to be used up, and if the process speed is fast, the developer may not be removed during the next development, which may have a negative impact on copying, such as destroying the undeveloped electrostatic latent image. It has the disadvantage of giving.

磁気現像方法である。Structure of the Invention The present invention includes a developing roll that rotates close to a photoreceptor, and a transport roll that supplies developer while rotating close to the developing roll, and is arranged near the transport roll. In a developing machine of an electronic copying machine that regulates the amount of developer supplied only by a developer regulating plate installed, the transport roll is stopped immediately after development is completed, and the developer roll is removed after the developer on the developing roll is removed. This is a magnetic development method that stops the process.

時に、現像ロールの回転を停止させる。 In the present invention, only the transport roll is stopped immediately after the development is completed, and the development roll continues to rotate without being supplied with developer. Therefore, from the time the transport roll and blender stop, no new magnetic brush is formed, and the magnetic brush of the developer that had been magnetized until then rubs against the photoreceptor, and then the magnet in the developing roll It falls and is removed by the action of Then, when there is no developer attached to the peripheral surface of the developing roll, the rotation of the developing roll is stopped.

There isn't.

完全に除去することができる。 FIG. 2 is a schematic side view of an example of a developing machine implementing the method of the present invention during development. Inside the developing machine 1 are a developing roll 3, a transport roll 4, and a blender 5.
is rotatably provided, and a developing roll 3 is disposed close to the photoreceptor 2. Developing roll 3, transport roll 4 and blender 5
is rotating in the direction of the arrow, and when development begins,
The developer stirred by the blender 5 is conveyed to the developing roll 3 by the transport roll 4. A developer regulating plate 6 is provided near the outer periphery of the transport roll 4 to regulate the amount of developer transported by the transport roll 4, and the developer is uniformly transported to the developing roll 3. Then, it is magnetically attached to the developing roll 3 to form a magnetic brush. Immediately after the magnetic brush on the developing roll 3 rubs the photoreceptor 2 and visualizes the electrostatic latent image on the surface of the photoreceptor, the transport roll 4 and the blender 5
, and the supply of developer to the developing roll 3 is stopped. At this time, the developing roll 3 continues to rotate, and the magnetic brush remaining on the developing roll 3 gradually falls. After a predetermined time, all the magnetic brushes on the developing roll 3 are removed and the developing roll 3 is stopped when the developer is no longer in contact with the photoreceptor 2. In the conventional method, it took about 1 second to remove all the developer on the developing roll, but with the method of the present invention, the developer can be completely removed in about 0.2 to 0.3 seconds.

い。 As described above, in the method of the present invention, the developer does not come into contact with the photoreceptor in a short time after the development is completed, and the developer does not adhere to the surface of the photoreceptor. Particularly in an apparatus equipped with a plurality of developing machines such as a color copying machine, by stopping the developing roll using the method of the present invention described above when the development of each developing machine is completed, it is possible to remove the undeveloped electrostatic charge. The latent image cannot be destroyed.
