Abstract
In one example, a heated pressure roller can include a structural element positioned within a belt roller, a platen coupled to the structural element, wherein the platen comprises: a first side to guide a belt of the belt roller to form a first angle on the first side, and a second side to guide the belt of the belt roller to form a second angle on the second side that is different than the first angle.
Claims15
A heated pressure roller, comprising:
- a structural element positioned within a belt roller;
- a platen coupled to the structural element, wherein the platen comprises:
- a first side to guide a belt of the belt roller to form a first angle on the first side;
- and
- a second side to guide the belt of the belt roller to form a second angle on the second side that is different than the first angle.
2 more elements
A system for a heated pressure roller, comprising:
- a heat source positioned within a belt roller of the heated pressure roller;
- a structural element positioned within the belt roller of the heated pressure roller;
- and
- a platen to guide a belt of the belt roller asymmetrically between an input and an output of a nip between the belt roller and a cylindrical roller of the heated pressure roller such that a first angle is generated by the platen at the input and a second angle is generated by the platen at the output.
1 more element
A printing device, comprising:
- a heated pressure roller to receive partially dried media at an input of a nip of the heated pressure roller and provide the partially dried media to media pathway at an output of the nip of the heated pressure roller, the heated pressure roller comprising:
- a belt roller that includes a belt that rotates around a heat source, a structural element, and a platen coupled to the structural element to guide the belt, wherein the platen includes a lip portion that extends toward the media pathway;
- and
- a cylindrical roller to apply pressure on the platen, wherein the nip is a location where the cylindrical roller makes contact with a surface of the platen.
