ABSTRACT:
A corona wire, either directly or through an auxiliary element, engages the spiral thread of a screw-like stub member mounted on the housing of a corona charging apparatus to provide a simple, low cost and easily assembled corona wire adjuster. The stub member is mounted on the housing such that it may be rotationally driven much like a screw, but, unlike a screw, will not move into or out of the housing as it is rotated. Rotation of the stub member causes the corona wire to move in a direction parallel to the stub member axis in response to the thread engagement and thereby change its position relative to a photoconductor surface.
