Xerographic induction recording with mechanically deformable image formation in a deformable layer

Claim 1

A METHOD OF SIMULTANEOUSLY FORMING A DIRECT READING RELIEF IMAGE AND A MIRROR-REVERSE RELIEF IMAGE BY INMDUCTION FROM A SINGLE LATENT ELECTROSTATIC IMAGE COMPRISING: (A) COATING A CONDUCTIVE PLATE WITH FIRST A CONDUCTIVE THERMOPLASTIC LAYER AND SECOND AN INSULTING THERMOPLASTIC LAYER HAVING A THICKNESS RANGE OF 5 MICRONS TO 5 MILS, (B) POSITIONING A PHOTOCONDUCTIVE INSULATING LAYER, BACKED BY A TRANSPARENT CONDUCTIVE LAYER, IN CONTACT WITH THE SURFACE OF SAID INSULATING THERMOPLASTIC LAYER, (C) APPLYING A DIRECT CURRENT POTENTIAL BETWEEN SAID TRANSPARENT CONDUCTIVE LAYER AND SAID CONDUCTIVE PLATE, (D) ILLUMINATING SAID PHOTOCONDUCTIVE INSULATING LAYER THROUGH SAID TRANSPARENT CONDUCTIVE LAYER WITH AN IMAGE PATTERN OF LIGHT AND SHADOW (E) HEATING SAID THERMOPLASTIC INSULATING LAYER AND SAID CONDUCTIVE THERMOPLASTIC LAYER TO COMPLIANCY ALLOWING THE INTERFACE BETWEEN THEM TO DEFORM IN RESPONSE TO THE ELECTROSTATIC FIELDS RESULTING FROM SAID IMAGE PATTERN, (F) COOLING SAID INSULATING THERMOPLASTIC LAYER AND SAID CONDUCTIVE THERMOPLASTIC LAYER SO THAT THEY SOLIDIFY IN THEIR DEFORMED CONFIGURATION, AND (G) SEPARATING SAID INSULATING THERMOPLASTIC LAYER AND SAID CONDUCTIVE THERMOPLASTIC LAYER TO PROVIDE A DIRECT READING IMAGE ON THE INSULATING THERMOPLASTIC LAYER AND A MIRROR-REVERSE IMAGE ON THE CONDUCTIVE THERMOPLASTIC LAYER.
