Magnetic toner recovering device of pressure fixing device
Abstract
Abstract PURPOSE:To increase the ability to recover toner without making the shape of a toner receiver which contains recovered toner larger by providing a magnet for toner attraction on the toner receiver. CONSTITUTION:The 1st magnet 7 for preventing the scattering of the recovered toner to the circumference is provided near the tip of the scraper 6 of a magnetic toner recovering device 4 and the 2nd magnet 10 for magnetic toner attraction is provided to the inner part of the toner receiver 9 under the scraper 6. Therefore, the recovered toner falling in the toner receiver 9 is attracted to the inner side, so the toner holding force of the toner receiver 9 increases to reduce the probability that a lump of toner falls on a printing surface, thereby increasing the ability to recover the toner. Consequently, >= about 40,000 copies of record of size A4 are taken without trouble by using the toner receiver 9 of the conventional size.
