Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate useless power consumption by shortening a rise time after a heat source is turned on and executing heating only when printing signals are received. CONSTITUTION:Since infrared ray radiated from a lamp 9 is transmitted through an infrared ray translucent cylinder 11 and is absorbed by an exothermic layer 12 and an non-adhesive layer 13 on the thermal fixing roll surface is efficiently heated, and a rise time of a thermal fixing roll 10 can be remarkably shortened. Consequently heating is necessary only when the printing signals are received and power consumption can be reduced.

FIG. 2 shows a sectional view of the heat fixing roller of the second embodiment of the present invention. The heat fixing roller 20 is formed by forming a thin metal layer 14 of nickel or the like on the outer periphery of the cylindrical body 11 by chemical plating, electroplating or the like, and further coating the non-adhesive layer 13 on the outer side thereof. In this case, if the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical body 11 is roughened so that the inside of the thin metal layer 14 does not become a mirror surface, the infrared rays emitted from the lamp 9 are reflected inside the cylindrical heat fixing roller 20. The metal thin layer 14 is absorbed in the course of repeating. That is, the thin metal layer 14 can play the same role as the heat generating layer 12. Furthermore,
It is also possible to provide a heat generating layer 13 that absorbs infrared rays favorably between the cylindrical body 11 and the thin metal layer 14.

FIG. 4 shows the features of the heat fixing roller of the present invention.
The temperature distribution model will be used for comparison with a conventional fixing roller. In a conventional fixing roller using a metal roller as a base, as shown in FIG. 4 (A), the inner surface of the metal roller absorbs infrared rays to generate heat, and this heat is transmitted from the inside of the metal roll to the outer surface of the non-adhesive layer surface. The temperature becomes the fixing roller temperature T 0 . Therefore, the inside of the fixing roller is necessarily higher than the fixing roller temperature T 0 . In this case, as a means for shortening the rising time, a material such as aluminum having a small heat capacity and a large heat conductivity is used for the metal roller, or a method of reducing the heat capacity by reducing the wall thickness has been used.

In the heat fixing roller of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 4 (B), the infrared rays are absorbed by the heat generating layer provided on the outer surface of the cylindrical body, which is the base, without absorbing the infrared rays. The heat generated by is directly generated on the surface side of the heat fixing roller. On the one hand, this heat is transmitted through the non-adhesive layer and reaches the fixing roller temperature T 0 , and on the other hand, it also flows into the cylindrical body, which raises the temperature of this cylindrical body. In this case, the smaller the thermal conductivity of the cylindrical body, the better the flow of heat into the non-adhesive layer, and the shorter the rise of the fixing roller temperature T 0 .

In summary, in the conventional fixing roller, since the inside of the roller is heated, the temperature of the entire fixing roller needs to be higher than a desired temperature at the time of rising, whereas in the heat fixing roller of the present invention, the outer surface of the roller is directly heated. By doing so, only the outer surface needs to have a desired temperature, and the rise time can be greatly shortened.
