| 20080230986 | Sheet transporting apparatus and sheet processing apparatus using the same - A sheet transporting apparatus, includes: a sheet transportation path; a predetermined number of transport members disposed in a sheet transportation path; a side position regulating mechanism which regulates a position of a side edge of a sheet in the sheet transportation path, the side position regulating mechanism having a reference member configured to change a sheet regulation position; a base member on which at least the reference member is mounted; a first adjusting mechanism which adjusts a position of the reference member; and a second adjusting mechanism which adjusts a position of a base member. | 09-25-2008 |
| 20110140343 | MEDIUM CONVEYING DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A medium conveying device includes a first guide member, a second guide member, a conveying member, and a support member. The first guide member guides one face of a medium to be conveyed and opposed to the one face when the medium is conveyed. The second guide member guides the other face of the medium and is opposed to the other face when the medium is conveyed, the second guide member being movable between a close position and an open position. The conveying member is provided in a conveying passage formed by the first guide member and the second guide member being at the close position in order to convey the medium in the conveying passage. The support member keeps the second guide member at the open position and is provided at a position outer than the second guide member in a direction that the medium is conveyed. When the second guide member is at the open position, the medium in the conveying passage is removable from the conveying passage. | 06-16-2011 |
| 20110142515 | MEDIUM CONVEYING DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A medium conveying device includes an alignment member, a skew conveying member, and a removal member. The alignment member faces one end of a medium and aligns the medium while contacting with the medium when the medium is conveyed in a first direction. The skew conveying member conveys the medium in a second direction crossing to the first direction so that the one end comes in contact with the alignment member and that includes a drive member and a driven member opposed to the drive member and driven by the drive member. The removal member has a tip end coming in contact with a face of the drive member to remove a deposit on the face. The removal member is placed along a rotation direction of the drive member so that the tip end faces downstream of the rotational direction. | 06-16-2011 |

| 20080243148 | SUTURE INSTRUMENT - A suture instrument that is inserted into a body and ejects an elongated anchor to be engaged to tissue, consisting of: an elongated member that extends from a proximal end on a hand side to a remote end that is introduced to tissue and has flexibility; a needle that is provided at the remote end of the elongated member, has at the distal end a sharp tip that is capable of puncturing tissue, is capable of housing a plurality of the anchors inside, and is provided with a side hole through which the anchors are capable of passing; a pusher whose remote end abuts the anchor that is housed in the needle and is disposed in a manner to be capable of moving in the axial direction of the elongated member; and a push-out control portion that is provided in the needle or the pusher and changes the movement direction of the anchor that has been moved to a formation position of the side hole by the pusher from the length-wise direction of the needle to a direction heading toward the side hole. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20090125039 | SUTURE INSTRUMENT - A suture instrument that is inserted into a body and ejects an elongated anchor to which a suture thread that sutures a perforation is connected and which is placed on tissue, including a base that extends from a proximal end on a hand side to a remote end that is introduced to tissue and has flexibility; an anchor holding instrument that is disposed at the remote end of the base, is capable of housing a plurality of the anchors inside, and whose distal end that ejects the anchors is approximately pointed in the direction of the proximal end of the base; a tip position changing mechanism that is provided for changing the tip position of the anchor holding instrument and causes the anchor holding instrument to move in a direction that intersects with the axial line of the lengthwise direction of the base; and a position operation device that operates the tip position changing mechanism at the hand side and operates the tip position of the anchor holding instrument. | 05-14-2009 |
| 20090204125 | SUTURE AND LIGATURE DEVICE FOR MEDICAL TREATMENT - A ligature device for medical treatment has an operating device that has a ligature tool for medical treatment fitted onto a distal end portion thereof. The operating device is provided with a cutting member that is able to move freely backwards and forwards and is used to cut a ligature wire of the ligature tool for medical treatment. A distal end side of the cutting member has an inclined end portion that is inclined relative to the direction of forward and backward movement, and a blade portion is provided in this inclined end portion. | 08-13-2009 |
