Roller for office automation equipment

A conductive roll available at low cost and superior both in moldability and compression set and having small dispersion or fluctuation in electrical resistance includes a shaft and a base rubber layer formed on a peripheral surface of the shaft, the base rubber layer formed of a composition containing the following components (A) to (C): (A) a liquid polymer having a structural unit (.alpha.) derived from at least one of butadiene and isoprene and having an alkenyl group in a side chain thereof; (B) a hydrosilylation crosslinking agent; and (C) a hydrosilylation catalyst. In the conductive roll the alkenyl group of the structural unit (.alpha.) in the liquid rubber (component A) becomes a crosslinking site and is present in a molecule thereof as a so-called pendant form so that the base rubber layer as a crosslinked mold comes to have a dense net structure due to the effects by the hydrosilylation crosslinking agent (component B) and the hydrosilylation catalyst (component C), thereby to obtain good copied images.

Conductive roll

The brushless motor according to the present invention is small in overall height without deterioration of the rotational accuracy. One of a pair of bearings is interposed between the base plate and the rotor and located on the radially outside of the other one of the bearings. A plurality of receiving holes is formed on the base plate to correspond to the teeth of the stator core to provide an axially space for respectively accommodating coils wound around the stator core. Thus, in spite of the motor having such a small axial clearance between the base plate and the rotor, sufficient amount of winding of coil is ensured. The receiving holes are closed from the outside of the motor with a sheet member and an adhesive is filled therein for fixedly securing the coil of the stator. The adhesive further acts as a damper to absorb magnetic vibration generated at the stator.
