| 20110198415 | SHOWER APPARATUS - Provided is a shower apparatus which can stably produce and supply bubbly water to nozzle holes, causing finely divided water droplets of relatively large, uniform size to land continuously on a user so as to allow the user to enjoy a shower with a voluminous feel as if the user were being showered by large drops of rain. The shower apparatus includes a water supply unit, a throttle unit adapted to eject passing water downstream, an aeration unit adapted to produce bubbly water by aerating the water ejected through the throttle unit, and a nozzle unit provided with a plurality of nozzle holes used to discharge the bubbly water, wherein an ejection speed changing means is installed in the water supply unit to at least partially vary ejection speeds of the water ejected from respective throttle channels of the plurality of throttle channels of the throttle unit. | 08-18-2011 |
| 20110198416 | SHOWER APPARATUS - Provided is a shower apparatus which can stably supply bubbly water through all nozzle holes and can cause water droplets of large, uniform size to land continuously on the user so as to allow the user to enjoy a shower with a voluminous feel as if the user were being showered by large drops of rain. The shower apparatus includes a water supply unit, a throttle unit adapted to eject passing water downstream, an aeration unit adapted to produce bubbly water by aerating the water ejected through the throttle unit, and a nozzle unit provided with a plurality of nozzle holes used to discharge the bubbly water, wherein the throttle unit has a flat-shaped throttle channel and water ejected through the throttle channel plunges into an air-liquid interface as a sheet-like stream, thereby producing bubbly water, which is then discharged through the nozzle hole. | 08-18-2011 |

| 20100214572 | Image processing apparatus - A facsimile image reception portion obtains a facsimile image received through a communication line. An image storage portion stores a facsimile image obtained by the facsimile image reception portion. A destination storage portion stores at least one transfer destination of the facsimile image and a set value for limiting received data by making connection with each other for each of transfer destinations. A character recognition portion obtains character data by performing character recognition from a facsimile image obtained by the facsimile image reception portion. A character recognition operation control portion compares a set value for limiting received data to character data obtained by a character recognition portion to control whether or not character recognition by the character recognition portion is continued. An electronic mail creation portion creates an electronic mail in which character data obtained by the character recognition portion is described. | 08-26-2010 |
| 20110128247 | OPERATION CONSOLE, ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT AND IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS WITH THE CONSOLE, AND OPERATION METHOD - In an image forming apparatus including software buttons and hardware buttons, a log-in image is displayed, and when input of a log-in name by a user is completed, determination is made as to whether an operation device used at that time is hardware buttons. If the operation device is hardware buttons, the image forming apparatus erases a software keyboard from a display panel, and if the operation device is not the hardware buttons, turns off a hardware button lamp. | 06-02-2011 |
| 20110199629 | DISPLAY DEVICE, ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS INCLUDING THE DISPLAY DEVICE, AND METHOD OF DISPLAYING INFORMATION - On a touch-panel display of an image forming apparatus, a function selecting area and a preview area are displayed next to each other. On the function selecting area, a function setting menu is displayed in one display mode among an icon mode in which only a group of icons are displayed, a regular mode in which a group of icons and a group of texts are displayed, and an express mode in which a group of icons, a group of texts and a group of function setting buttons are displayed. In the icon mode, detailed preview information is displayed on a large preview area, and in the express mode, detailed function selecting information is displayed on a large function selecting area. | 08-18-2011 |
| 20110199639 | OPERATION CONSOLE PROVIDING A PLURALITY OF OPERATION METHODS FOR ONE COMMAND, ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS PROVIDED WITH THE OPERATION CONSOLE, AND METHOD OF OPERATION - In an image forming apparatus including a touch-panel display allowing a touch operation and a gesture operation, in order to enable easy customization of print setting screen image, a CPU of the image forming apparatus executes a program including: the step of displaying the print setting screen image in the custom-set display mode; upon detection by a user input, analyzing an input trajectory; if a request for changing preview display is made by a gesture, storing an icon mode with larger preview area as a custom-setting; and changing the preview on the print setting screen image displayed in the icon mode. | 08-18-2011 |
