Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of printer accessories technology, specifically a magnetic roller structure for a laser printer. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional printer magnetic rollers employ a modular assembly structure, consisting of a magnetic core, conductive layer, insulating layer, and end caps, joined together via bonding or press-fitting processes. However, this structure has the following drawbacks:

[0003] 1. Poor mechanical stability: Assembly errors cause the magnetic core and the outer shell to be misaligned (coaxiality error ≥0.05mm), which generates centrifugal vibration during rotation, and the magnetic field fluctuation amplitude exceeds 15%, causing stripes in the printed image.

[0004] 2. Thermal expansion mismatch: The difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the magnetic core and the outer shell can easily cause micro-cracks in high-temperature environments, leading to magnetic leakage.

[0005] 3. Signal interference: There is contact resistance (approximately 0.1-0.5Ω) between the separate conductive layer and the magnetic core. When powered by high voltage, electromagnetic noise is generated, which affects the accuracy of the development bias voltage. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a magnetic roller structure for laser printers to solve the problems mentioned in the above technical background, such as poor mechanical stability, thermal expansion mismatch, and signal interference in traditional printer magnetic rollers.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a magnetic roller structure for a laser printer, comprising: an integrally formed magnetic induction composite; honeycomb reinforcing ribs uniformly distributed on the inner periphery of the magnetic induction composite; gradient magnetization modules uniformly distributed in the honeycomb gaps of the honeycomb reinforcing ribs; a double helical heat dissipation channel provided on the inner periphery of the honeycomb reinforcing ribs, and the gradient magnetization modules uniformly distributed around the double helical heat dissipation channel; and a wear-resistant layer, a conductive film, and a moisture-proof coating sequentially covering the outer surface of the magnetic induction composite.

[0008] Furthermore, the gradient magnetization module forms an alternating N / S magnetic field with a magnetic induction intensity of 0.2-0.8T. The hexagonal units in the honeycomb reinforcing ribs have a side length of 1.2mm, a wall thickness of 0.5mm, and an arrangement density of 85-90%. The double-helix heat dissipation channel is filled with inert gas, and gas circulation is achieved through a micro-eddy current tube at the end of the magnetic roller. The sheet resistance of the conductive film is ≤10Ω / □. An embedded conductive ring is provided at the other end of the magnetic roller, with a contact resistance ≤0.01Ω.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: the one-piece molding technology eliminates 100% of assembly errors; the honeycomb reinforcing ribs and double-helix heat dissipation channels greatly enhance shock resistance and heat dissipation performance; the gradient magnetization module achieves a magnetic field uniformity deviation of ≤3%; and the moisture-proof coating allows the magnetic roller to work stably in a 90% humidity environment.

[0018] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a magnetic roller structure for a laser printer includes: an integrally formed magnetically conductive composite 1; honeycomb-shaped reinforcing ribs 2 uniformly distributed inside the magnetically conductive composite 1; gradient magnetization modules 3 uniformly distributed in the honeycomb gaps of the honeycomb-shaped reinforcing ribs 2; a double-helix heat dissipation channel 4 provided inside the honeycomb-shaped reinforcing ribs 2, and the gradient magnetization modules 3 uniformly distributed around the double-helix heat dissipation channel 4; and a wear-resistant layer 5, a conductive film 6, and a moisture-proof coating 7 sequentially covering the outer surface of the magnetically conductive composite 1.

[0020] To ensure uniform magnetic field distribution on the magnetic roller, the gradient magnetization module 3 generates an alternating N / S magnetic field with a magnetic induction intensity of 0.2-0.8T. To ensure the stability of the magnetic roller's main structure, honeycomb reinforcing ribs 2 are provided inside the magnetic permeable composite 1. The hexagonal units in the honeycomb reinforcing ribs 2 have a side length of 1.2mm, a wall thickness of 0.5mm, and an arrangement density of 85-90%. To improve the magnetic roller's heat dissipation performance, the double-helix heat dissipation channel 4 is filled with inert gas, and gas circulation is achieved through a micro-vortex tube 8 at the end of the magnetic roller. To improve the efficiency of developing bias voltage transmission, the sheet resistance of the conductive film 6 is ≤10Ω / □. To ensure accurate transmission of the developing bias voltage, an embedded conductive ring 9 with a contact resistance ≤0.01Ω is provided at the other end of the magnetic roller.

[0021] The fabrication process of the magnetic roller structure for the laser printer is as follows:

[0022] Step 1: Mix the magnetic material powder with the binder, inject it into the mold and cold isostatically press it into shape (pressure 200MPa).

[0023] Step 2: The product from Step 1 is hot isostatically sintered for 4 hours under high temperature and inert gas protection.

[0024] Step 3: Use a five-axis CNC machine tool to precision machine the product from Step 2 into a cylinder with an outer diameter of Φ16±0.003mm and an inner diameter of Φ12±0.01mm.

[0025] Step 4: The cylinder from Step 3 has its inner wall honeycomb structure etched with a laser (0.8mm deep), and a double-helix copper tube is welded in the middle to form a heat dissipation channel.

[0026] Step 5: Sequentially deposit the wear-resistant layer 5, the conductive film 6, and the moisture-proof coating 7 on the outer surface of the cylinder.

[0027] Step 6: Install an embedded conductive ring 9 at the end of the cylinder, and use a pulse magnetic field generator to perform gradient magnetization on the uniformly distributed modules to be magnetized in the honeycomb gaps.

[0028] Through the above technical solutions, the one-piece molding technology eliminates 100% of assembly errors, and the honeycomb reinforcing ribs 2 and double spiral heat dissipation channels 4 greatly enhance shock resistance and heat dissipation performance. The gradient magnetization module 3 achieves a magnetic field uniformity deviation of ≤3%, and the moisture-proof coating 7 enables the magnetic roller to work stably in a 90% humidity environment.
