DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION Problems to be Solved by the Invention In the above-mentioned conventional magnet roll, as shown by the broken line in FIG. 2, the magnetic field disappears abruptly outside the end of the permanent magnet, the magnetic attraction force decreases, and the developer sleeve Since the force of attracting it to the top is weak, the attraction width L is almost the same as the width of the permanent magnet.
Even if it has, when the toner passes through the gap between the photoconductor and the sleeve, which is smaller than the thickness of the developer layer, the developer hangs out laterally to contaminate the edge of the photoconductor or place it close to it. There is a problem that the paper separating device and the like that have been used are soiled. FIG. 3 shows changes in the developer layer with respect to the length of the magnet in the axial direction at the time of development and at the time of non-development, which are shown by a solid line when not developed and a dotted line when developed.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the present invention incorporates a permanent magnet member having a plurality of magnetic poles, in which a permanent magnet is fixed around an axis, inside a non-magnetic sleeve. In a magnet roll that conveys the artistic agent adsorbed on the non-magnetic sleeve by relative rotation, the permanent magnet is a straight part having a length corresponding to the effective developing width and one end of the straight part to the outside. With the formed tapered portion, the axial width of the tapered portion is 3 to 20 mm, the angle of the tapered portion is in the range of 5 to 60 degrees, and the magnetic attraction force at the tapered portion is Drops on sleeve 10-100 gauss / mm

Conventionally, the end portion of the cylindrical permanent magnet 4 is chamfered by about 1 mm, but it is made larger in the present invention, and both end portions of the linear portion having a length corresponding to the effective developing width of the permanent magnet 4. The axial dimension of the taper portion integrally formed on the outer side is at least 3 mm and up to 20 mm. The angle θ of the taper with respect to the longitudinal line may be very small, and is 5 degrees or more to about 60 degrees, and if the decrease in the magnetic attraction force at the end is about 10 gauss / mm or more and 100 gauss / mm or more on the sleeve 1. In the magnetic field having a gradient in the axial direction, an axial force for pulling back to the direction of the gradient of zero acts on the developer, and the adsorption width L of the developer layer is the same as that of the conventional example of FIG. 4 excluding the taper portion. Will be the same.

However, in the magnet roll of the present invention, the magnetic attraction force for adsorbing the laterally spread developer on the sleeve at the developing portion is larger than that of the broken line of the conventional example as shown by the solid line in FIG. Therefore, stable development can be performed without soiling the edge of the photoconductor or scattering into the paper separating device.

Effect of the Invention As described above, in the magnet roll of the present invention, when the toner adsorption width (developing effective width) is the same as the conventional one, the developer that is laterally spread at the time of development can be applied outside the developing width. The magnetic attraction force that holds it stably on the sleeve works so that the developer does not scatter, and therefore it is possible to prevent the edge of the photoconductor from becoming dirty and the paper separating device that is placed close to it from getting dirty. The developed image can be developed.
