Structure of transferring member
Abstract
Abstract PURPOSE:To prevent a transfer member from being contaminated, by making width of a transfer roller larger than width of a form, and forming a projecting part whose height is smaller than thickness of the form, in the whole periphery of both side parts which are shifted to the outside of the form. CONSTITUTION:A toner image which is formed on a recording belt 11 is transferred to a form 100 by a transfer roller 12 which is energized in the direction of a driving roller 13 by a spring 14, in a transfer part 15. Width of the roller 12 is larger than the form 100, and in both side parts which are shifted to the outside of the form, a projecting part 16 whose height is smaller than thickness (t) of the form is formed in its whole periphery. The form is brought to press-contacting by the part against the projecting part 16, and an image is transferred satisfactorily. Even when the form does not come to the transfer part 15 due to a jam, etc., the part against the projecting part is not contaminated since it is separated from the recording belt 11.
