Abstract
A static elimination device includes: a first static elimination member that makes contact with a medium that is transported; a second static elimination member arranged such that the medium is inserted between the first static elimination member and the second static elimination member; and a power source that applies a voltage to at least one of the first static elimination member or the second static elimination member, in which at least one of the first static elimination member and the second static elimination member has an elastic body.
Claims20
A static elimination device comprising:
- a first static elimination member that makes contact with a medium that is transported;
- a second static elimination member arranged such that the medium is inserted between the first static elimination member and the second static elimination member;
- and
- a power source that applies a voltage to at least one of the first static elimination member and the second static elimination member,
- wherein at least one of the first static elimination member and the second static elimination member has an elastic body.
A static elimination device comprising:
- a contact-type static eliminator including a first static elimination member that makes contact with a medium that is transported, a second static elimination member arranged such that the medium is inserted between the first static elimination member and the second static elimination member, and a power source that applies a voltage to at least one of the first static elimination member and the second static elimination member, at least one of the first static elimination member and the second static elimination member having an elastic body;
- and
- a non-contact-type static eliminator that is provided further downstream in a transport direction of the medium than the contact-type static eliminator, and, without making contact, eliminates residual charge from the medium after static elimination has been carried out by the contact-type static eliminator.
