The size measuring interval setting means sets the number of workpieces which should be ground during the next size measuring interval, based on an average position compensation amount derived by dividing a position compensation amount for the last workpiece ground during the present size measuring interval by the number of workpieces ground during the present size measuring interval.	10-01-2009

20080299894	Mobile communication device - A mobile communication device configured to communicate by radio with a base station connected to a network is provided. The mobile communication device has a broadcast receiver configured to receive broadcasting, a monitor configured to monitor condition of receiving broadcasting and a controller connected to the broadcast receiver and the monitor. The controller is configured to perform a first process in the foreground, and configured to selectively perform a second process in the background in parallel with the first process. The second process includes a process of receiving broadcasting. The controller is configured to end the process of receiving broadcasting if the broadcast receiver receives broadcasting as the second process controlled by the controller and the monitor detects degradation of the condition of receiving broadcasting.	12-04-2008

20120003014	DEVELOPING DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMING DEVICE - A two-component developing device using a developer containing toner and magnetic carrier particles. The developing device comprises a housing, a developing roller, a magnetic field generator mounted inside the developing roller, and a developer restricting member, and further comprises a developer guide member providing a developer guide path for guiding the developer to the developer amount restricting clearance, providing a developer circulation path for circulating the developer to an upstream end of the guide member, and providing a communication path for bringing the developer guide path into communication with the developer circulation path, an upstream end of the guide member being positioned above the position of a peak of magnetic flux density of the magnetic pole of the magnetic field generator which is closest to a low-magnetic force area downstream of the low-magnetic force area or positioned upstream of such a position and downstream of the low-magnetic force area. An image forming device in which such a two-component developing device is employed as at least one developing device.	01-05-2012
