Abstract:
A printer includes a printing unit configured to print on a print medium while transferring the print medium by a first transfer section, a transfer unit located downstream the printing unit in a transfer route and configured to transfer the print medium by a second transfer section, and a controller configured to control the printing unit and the transfer unit. The controller is configured to stop the first transfer section prior to the second transfer section upon detection of a jam of the print medium.

An image forming apparatus includes: a first paper feed unit configured to feed a primary recording medium for double-sided printing; a second paper feed unit configured to feed a secondary recording medium for single-sided printing; a printing unit configured to perform sets of printing based on received job information, each of the sets of printing including double-sided printing on a first predetermined number of primary recording media and single-sided printing on a second predetermined number of secondary recording media; a print timing setting unit configured to set a print timing of each of the first print media and the second print media based on the first predetermined number and the second predetermined number; and a controller configured to perform control to transfer the primary recording media and the secondary recording media to the printing unit based on the print timing.
Abstract:
A piston for in-cylinder fuel-injection type internal combustion engine includes a piston body, a low thermal conductor, and a piston head. The low thermal conductor is disposed on the top of the piston body. The low thermal conductor includes a low thermally-conductive substrate, and a coating layer. The low thermally-conductive substrate has opposite surfaces. The coating layer includes alumina fine particles (Al2O3). The coating layer is adhered on at least a part one of the opposite surfaces of the low thermally-conductive substrate that makes a cast-buried or enveloped surface to be cast buried or enveloped in the piston head.
Abstract:
The present invention provides elastic polyurethane yarns which possess excellent elongation, recoverability, heat resistance and chemical resistance, as well as a method of manufacturing the same. The elastic polyurethane yarns comprise a polyurethane being composed mainly of a polymeric diol and a diisocyanate, and contains through incorporation a compound having within the molecule a phosphorus-nitrogen interatomic bond(s). The process can produce the elastic polyurethane yarns by adding to a solution of the polyurethane a compound having within the molecule a phosphorus-nitrogen interatomic bond(s), followed by spinning.
Abstract:
A speaker diaphragm (1) contains a material obtained by adding a cycloolefin polymer resin to a carbon fiber-reinforced liquid crystal polymer. The speaker diaphragm (1) having high sound velocity, a speaker (5), and a production method of the speaker diaphragm (1) can thereby be obtained.
Abstract:
In a printing apparatus, even when the measured paper size differs from the scheduled size, it is possible to reduce the frequency of requiring a recovery procedure, and prevent the productivity from decreasing by continuing the operation of the printing apparatus as much as possible. The printing apparatus includes a paper feeding unit for feeding a print sheet from a paper feed tray 120, 130a, 130b, 130c or 130d to a transportation route CR through a paper feed route FR, in-tray sensors 182, 183a, 183b . . . for measuring the paper size in the paper feed trays; a transportation sensor 181 for measuring the paper size on the transportation route, a transportation operation adjusting unit 332 for adjusting the transportation operation on the transportation or paper feed route according to the measurement result of the transportation sensor 181 when the measurement results of the transportation sensor 181 and in-tray sensors mismatch.
Abstract:
In an image forming apparatus, a sheet reversing mechanism is configured to take over and transfer, at a transfer speed Vr, a print sheet with an image already formed on one side being transferred at the transfer speed Vr from a first transfer mechanism, to stop the print sheet once, then to start transfer of the print sheet in an opposite direction, and to pass the print sheet to a second transfer mechanism at the transfer speed Vr. The first and second transfer mechanisms are located on upstream and downstream of a switchback reverse path for reversing print sheets respectively Upon lapse of a time T1 after detection of the print sheet by a print sheet detection unit, a transfer control unit drives the sheet reversing mechanism to start acceleration from a stopped state to the transfer speed Vr, the time T1 calculated based on the transfer speed Vr.
