Abstract

PURPOSE:To equalize a distance between a corona discharger and a grid over entire width by providing the driven roller so as to bring it into contact with the photosensitive body over the entire width at the position opposed to the corona discharger, thereby bringing a belt-like photosensitive body into tight contact with a driven roller to be in a line. CONSTITUTION:The driven roller 50 is provided over the entire width of the belt-like photosensitive body 10 at the position opposed to an electrostatic charger 13 on the rear surface of the photosensitive body 10. In order to bring the roller 50 into contact with the photosensitive body over the entire width, the roller 50 is provided to intrude in the photosensitive belt to some extent. In the case the base substance of the photosensitive body 10 is made of magnetic metal such as nickel, supposing that the roller 50 is a magnetized roller, the photosensitive body 10 is surely attracted over the entire length even though the roller 50 is not made to bite at the photosensitive body 10, and the distance between the grid 13a of the charger 13 and the surface of the photosensitive body is surely uniformly kept at a regular value.

When the photoconductor belt is wound around a plurality of rollers and conveyed, the photoconductor belt 10 is rotated between the rollers 11 in the circumferential direction (sub-scanning direction) and in the width direction of the photoconductor belt at right angles thereto. Deflection occurs in two directions (main scanning direction), but the deflection in the main scanning direction becomes a problem with respect to the fluctuation of the photosensitive member surface potential due to the above-mentioned charging charger. To describe this problem more specifically, as shown in FIG. 9, the photosensitive belt 10 extends in the main scanning direction at a position facing the charging charger 13 of the photosensitive member 10, and both ends are in a plane orthogonal to the photosensitive belt. If the central portion rises and the central portion rises and is close to the grid 13a, the regular distance (2 mm in this example) between the surface of the photoconductor 10 and the grid 13a can be maintained at both the central portion and both end portions. Disappear. As a result, as shown in FIG. 10, the distribution of the surface potential of the photoconductor is larger than the regular surface potential of −750 V at the central portion in the main scanning direction, and is smaller than the regular surface potential at both ends.
