Title: The Innovative Contributions of Carlton J Baxter
Introduction
Carlton J Baxter is a notable inventor based in Penfield, NY (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of electrophotography, holding a total of 3 patents. His work has advanced the technology used in imaging and reproduction devices.
Latest Patents
One of Baxter's latest patents is the "Intermediate transfer method and roller." This invention involves forming a small particle toner image on a primary image member, such as a photoconductor, which is then electrostatically transferred to an intermediate image member before being transferred to a receiving sheet. The intermediate image member is designed to have characteristics that make the toner less attractive to the primary image member but more attractive to the receiving sheet. The design includes a base of a relatively compliant material with a Young's modulus of 10^7 Newtons per square meter or less, along with a thin outer skin of a harder material with a Young's modulus of 5×10^7 Newtons per square meter or more.
Another significant patent is the "Slide transparency projector apparatus for use with an electrophotographic reproduction device." This apparatus enables the reproduction of slide transparencies using an electrophotographic reproduction device that includes a transparent platen for supporting the information to be reproduced. A main lens assembly projects a focused image of the information onto a photoconductive member to form a latent image charge pattern. The apparatus includes a mechanism for projecting a real image of a slide transparency along an optical path onto the transparent platen, utilizing a Fresnel lens as a field lens for the main lens assembly.
