| 20090029071 | Transparent Spinel Substrate, Transparent Substrate for Optical Engine, Rear Projection Television Receiver Using Them and Image Projector Using Liquid Crystal - A transparent substrate for an optical engine of a rear-projection television receiver or a liquid crystal image projector, in particular, for protecting an original image forming panel of the optical engine, the transparent substrate characterized by being formed from a transparent highly-thermal-conductive cubic polycrystal plate, exhibiting good transmission of light or the like, good thermal conductivity, and good operability, and a rear-projection television receiver including the transparent substrate. It is favorable that the transparent substrate formed from the transparent highly-thermal-conductive cubic polycrystal and provided with a coating layer on a surface is used. Preferably, the coating layer is a multilayer. It is favorable that the material for the coating is at least two types selected from metal fluorides, metal oxides, and zinc compounds. The optical transparency is improved and the environmental stability is also improved by the coating. | 01-29-2009 |

One end of the housing includes a plurality of developer inlet ports positionally corresponding to the developer supply ports of the developer containers respectively, a plurality of developer outlet ports positionally corresponding to the developer receiving ports of the developing devices respectively, and a plurality of developer supply paths connecting between the developer inlet ports and the developer outlet ports respectively. | 10-16-2008 |
| 20090269106 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus has a spacer roller that contacts a photosensitive drum outside a running region of a transfer member. The spacer roller forms a gap between a developing roller and the photosensitive drum. A cleaning device is positioned at downstream side of a nip position formed between the photosensitive drum and the transfer member. A toner removing blade is disposed between the downstream side of the nip and an upstream side of the cleaning device. The toner removing blade has a contact portion that contacts a contact region between the photosensitive drum and the spacer roller. The rotation axis of the photosensitive drum extends along an inner end of the contact portion. This inner end of the contact portion is positioned within a toner collecting region in which toner is scraped off by the cleaning device. | 10-29-2009 |
