Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve heat radiation, to prevent a photosensitive drum from overheat at the time of continuous use and to simplify a fixing mechanism by inserting heat radiation fins having V-shaped sections between radical rims arranged between an inner cylinder for a bearing and a drum body so that the folded side edges of the fins and both blade plate parts are joined and fixed to the outer periphery of the inner cylinder and the inside of the drum body respectively. CONSTITUTION:The inner cylinder 2 for the bearing and the outer cylinder 1 forming the drum body are concentrically and unitedly molded through plural radical coupling rims 3 and the heat radiation fins having V-shaped sections are inserted between the rims 3 arranged between the inner and outer cylinders 1, 2 in the axial direction so that the folded side edges 4a of the fins 4 are abutted upon the outer periphery of the inner cylinder 2 and the outer side edges of the both the blade plate parts 4b are abutted upon the inside of the outer cylinder 1 and the abutted parts are unitedly joined and fixed. In addition, the fins 4 are engaged with the thin grooves formed oppositely to the inner and outer cylinders 1, 2 at their side edges on the basis of brazing. It is preferable for brazing to use Al brazing sheets for the fins 4. Consequently, the heat radiation of the drum is improved and the surface temperature can be sufficiently dropped, so that no trouble such as overheat is generated in spite of the long continuous use, the fixing mechanism can be simplified and the copying machine can be reduced at its size.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, this type of photosensitive drum uses a hollow cylinder made of metal such as aluminum and having a photosensitive layer formed on its outer peripheral surface. In order to rotationally support this, a pair of separately formed flange members is applied to both ends of the cylinder,
These are fastened with a plurality of fastening bolts to be integrated with the cylinder, and are removably supported on the drum shaft via a bearing such as a ball bearing attached to a flange member.

(Problems with the Prior Art) In recent years, there has been an increasingly strong demand for miniaturization of electronic copying machines, and photosensitive drums are also becoming smaller accordingly. In addition, after transferring the image to transfer paper using a photosensitive drum,
Attempts have also been made to reduce the space required to provide a separate fixing section by heating and fixing the visible image electrostatically adhered to the transfer paper around the photosensitive drum. However, when a photosensitive drum is heated by a corona discharger or a lamp and in addition a heating fixing roll is placed closely around its circumference, its temperature tends to increase. Conventional photosensitive drums as described above have poor heat dissipation properties, which, combined with the tendency for surface area to decrease due to miniaturization of the drum itself, tends to cause overheating of the drum, resulting in a significant decline in the charging performance of the photosensitive drum. Alternatively, problems arise in that the toner melts on the drum surface and prevents good transfer to copy paper.

To solve these problems, in order to improve the heat dissipation performance of the drum, proposals have already been made to integrally form protrusions that act as heat dissipation fins on the inner surface of the cylinder (for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 103358/1983, Utsukai Showa 56-12056
However, there is a limit to the number of integrally molded fins that can be increased, and it has not been possible to achieve the desired cooling effect on the photosensitive drum.

Furthermore, in addition to the cylinder, conventional photosensitive drums require a pair of flanges, bearings, etc. to support the drum, which increases the number of parts, complicates the structure, and increases costs. Moreover, when it becomes necessary to replace the cylinder due to fatigue or damage to the photoreceptor, it requires a complicated procedure for attaching and detaching the cylinder, which requires a lot of time and effort.

Furthermore, in the rotational support of the photosensitive drum, since the cylinder is supported on the drum shaft via a separate flange and bearing, the cylinder may deteriorate due to the accumulation of errors between each member. Sometimes the center does not exactly match the center of the drum shaft over the entire length, which can have various negative effects on the copying function.

(Purpose of the invention) The purpose of the invention is to solve the problems mentioned above. That is, firstly, the heat dissipation of the photosensitive drum is significantly increased, and even when a heating fixing roll is brought into contact with a part of the circumferential surface, the rotation leads to a charging section that forms an electrostatic latent image. Second, the manufacturing process must be as simple as possible, and the third objective is to reduce the surface roughness of the drum shaft. A structure that simplifies the support structure and makes it easy to attach and detach, and also allows the center of the drum to align accurately with the center of the drum shaft, without the risk of misalignment with the center of rotation and causing errors. The purpose is to

In addition, in order to facilitate the insertion operation of the radiation fins (4) and to correctly position them, the inner and outer cylinders (2) and (1) are provided with a number of thin grooves (5) facing each other. '('6') are provided, and the above-mentioned both side edge parts of the radiation fin <4) are fitted into these. Also, heat dissipation fins (4)
The above-mentioned bonding and fixing is achieved by using an aluminum brazing sheet for the heat dissipation fins (4), and by melting the skin material (brazing material), the outer cylinder (1) and the inner cylinder (2) are attached to both side edges.

(Effects of the Invention) Since the photosensitive drum according to the present invention has the above-described configuration, as is clear from consideration of the examples, the inner cylinder (2) is provided with a drum shaft (not shown). This can be easily pivoted into a copying machine by inserting it. Therefore, unlike conventional products, it is possible to provide rotational support without requiring additional accessories such as a flange body or bearing, and the structure can be significantly simplified. In addition, since the inner and outer cylinders are integrally molded, the center of the outer cylinder (1) is automatically and accurately aligned with the drum shaft that passes through the inner cylinder (2), so that the outer cylinder (1) can be placed close to the photosensitive drum. It is possible to prevent problems such as damage to the photosensitive layer on the surface of the drum due to contact with the corona discharger group, developing device, transfer paper guide, etc. arranged therein.

In addition, on the inside of the outer cylinder (1) there is a thin vane part (4b) of the V-shaped radiation fin (4) in contact with it, and in addition, a radial connecting rim that connects with the inner cylinder (2) (3) also has excellent heat dissipation properties, and even if the outer cylinder is heated due to discharge from a corona discharger or even irradiation with light from a lamp, heat is quickly dissipated and overheating occurs. It is possible to increase the rotation speed of the drum without causing any problems. In particular, as shown in FIG. 1, by blowing air from one end of the drum with a fan (7) to perform forced air cooling, heat dissipation can be easily promoted. Even in the case where the transferred image is fixed on the transfer paper by a heating fixing roller on the surface, the temperature of the heated outer peripheral surface of the drum must be sufficiently high before the heated outer peripheral surface of the drum reaches the charging section. This makes it possible to lower the temperature to a low temperature, which is extremely effective in further downsizing copying machines.

Furthermore, since fins having a V-shaped cross section are used as the radiation fins, it is easy to insert and install the fins between the inner and outer cylinders (2) and (1), which is advantageous in manufacturing.

In addition, when integrally molded into the outer cylinder, it is possible to install a large number of heat dissipation fins, which is not possible on the side bottom, resulting in extremely excellent heat dissipation performance. There is no risk of problems caused by overheating, and it maintains good functionality.In addition to downsizing the photosensitive drum itself, the fixing mechanism heats and fixes the toner on the transfer paper around the drum. Together with the fact that it is possible to simplify the process, this has a remarkable effect that can greatly contribute to the miniaturization of copying machines.
