Toner cartridge with pre-doctoring comminuator |
摘要 |
A toner cartridge has a comminuator that prevents the buildup of toner behind the doctor blade that meters the toner delivered to the developer roller for later image development and printing. The comminuator is mounted to, and for movement with, an agitator adjacent to an exit port of the toner hopper. A paddle that rotates within the toner hopper contacts the agitator and generates joint movement of the agitator and comminuator. The comminuator comprises a plurality of spaced blades held by a coupler mounted to the agitator. Alternatively, the comminuator comprises a wire mounted in opposing connectors mounted to the agitator.
