Method of and apparatus for the image-wise exposure of a moving light-sensitive medium by means of a light source and a number of switchable light valves disposed between the medium and the light source, each individual image dot being formed on the light-sensitive medium by actuating sequentially and synchronously with the movement of the light-sensitive medium a number of light valves which extend parallel to the direction of movement of the light-sensitive medium so that each image dot is exposed to light a number of times consecutively so that the speed of image formation increases proportionally to the number of light valves.

Method and apparatus for the image-wise exposure of light-sensitive

A corona device suitable for use in electrophotographic apparatus to provide a uniform charge on photoconductive material comprises as the ion-generating means a multiplicity of electrode pins, all of the same diameter, which are provided at the same mutual spacing from one another in a body of insulating material from which all the pins project to the same extent, with the pins limited to a diameter between 10 and 100 microns, a mutual spacing of between 0.3 and 2.5 mm, a projecting length of between 0.7 and 3 mm, a length to diameter ratio of between 10 and 300 and a spacing distance to diameter ratio of between 4 and 250. The electrode pins are formed from lengths of a suitable conductive wire which are laid at the required mutual spacing and soldered to and between conductive strips to form an electrically conductive unit that is embedded in a cast body of the insulating material with free ends of the wire lengths projecting to the required extent.
