20140085381 | INKJET HEAD AND MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR THE INKJET HEAD - According to one embodiment, an inkjet head includes a base, a driving element, a nozzle plate, electrodes, wires, a supplying unit, and a discharging unit. The base includes an attachment surface and a side surface crossing the attachment surface. The driving element is attached to the attachment surface and includes pressure chambers. The nozzle plate is attached to the driving element and includes nozzles opened to the pressure chambers. The electrodes are provided in the pressure chambers. The wires are provided on the side surface and connected to the electrodes. The supplying unit is connected to the pressure chambers and supplies ink to the pressure chambers. The discharging unit is connected to the pressure chambers and discharges the ink from the pressure chambers. | 03-27-2014 |
20140111577 | MAINTENANCE APPARATUS AND INKJET RECORDING APPARATUS - According to one embodiment, there is provided a maintenance apparatus for removing ink from a nozzle surface of an inkjet head including a first region where a first nozzle is provided, a second region where a second nozzle is provided, and a third region located between the first region and the second region. The maintenance apparatus includes a first positioning section, a first wiping blade, and a second wiping blade. The first positioning section comes into contact with the third region and removes the ink present in the third region. When the first positioning section comes into contact with the third region, the first and second wiping blades come into contact with the first and second regions and remove the kinds of ink present in the first and second regions. | 04-24-2014 |

20080315495 | SHEET PROCESSING APPARATUS - In a sheet processing apparatus that performs processing for sheets after image formation such as sorting or stapling of the sheets, when the sheets are subjected to processing in a processing tray, after the sheets are discharged to the waiting tray, a paddle operation is started to drop the sheets to the processing tray. When the paddle is in a position where the paddle does not come into contact with the sheets on the processing tray, the rotation of the paddle is stopped once to prevent the paddle from interfering with the sheets. | 12-25-2008 |
20110109033 | SHEET PROCESSING APPARATUS - In a sheet processing apparatus that, for example, sorts or staples sheets after image formation, when preceding finishing is not completed on a processing tray, a third sheet fed anew into awaiting tray of a sheet placing member configuring a sheet waiting unit, which temporarily puts a sheet conveyed thereto on standby, is stacked to be shifted such that leading ends of second and third sheets are located further on a conveying direction upstream side than a leading end of a first sheet. Consequently, longitudinal alignment in the processing tray after that is surely performed. | 05-12-2011 |
20120169008 | SHEET PROCESSING APPARATUS - In a sheet processing apparatus that, for example, sorts or staples sheets after image formation, when preceding finishing is not completed on a processing tray, a third sheet fed anew into awaiting tray of a sheet placing member configuring a sheet waiting unit, which temporarily puts a sheet conveyed thereto on standby, is stacked to be shifted such that leading ends of second and third sheets are located further on a conveying direction upstream side than a leading end of a first sheet. Consequently, longitudinal alignment in the processing tray after that is surely performed. | 07-05-2012 |

20090166190 | Anodizing apparatus - An anodizing apparatus for forming an anodized film on the surface of a workpiece ( | 07-02-2009 |
20090236228 | ANODIZING METHOD AND APPARATUS - An anodizing method in which a workpiece made of aluminum or aluminum alloy is immersed in an electrolytic solution, and treatment is performed in which the application of positive voltage for a very short period of time and the removal of charges are repeated alternately between the workpiece and a cathode arranged in the electrolytic solution includes a step of performing treatment in which the positive voltage application and the charge removal are repeated in a tentative cycle, measuring the control point arrival time of a current waveform at the positive voltage application period, and determining normal positive voltage application time based on the control point arrival time; and a step of performing treatment in which the application of positive voltage and the removal of charges are repeated in a cycle corresponding to the normal positive voltage application time, and forming an anodized film on the surface of the workpiece. | 09-24-2009 |
20100243457 | ANODIC OXIDE COATING AND ANODIZING OXIDATION METHOD - An anodic oxide coating has fewer irregularities and has a nonuniform film thickness, and an anodic oxidation method yields the coating. Specifically, an anodic oxidation method of an aluminum or aluminum alloy member applies a voltage to a process component immersed in a processing bath, the process component made of any of aluminum and aluminum alloy members containing at least any of an impurity and an additive. The method includes disposing a pair of negative plates so that the negative plates face the process component; and repeatedly performing a process of applying a positive voltage to the process component and a process of removing charges by using a power supply apparatus including an anodizing direct-current power source, a discharge direct-current power source, a switch configured to connect the process component and the pair of negative plates to any one of terminals of the anodizing direct-current power source and the discharge direct-current power source, the terminals having polarities opposite to each other, and capacitors and regeneration circuits connected to the respective power sources in parallel to the process component and the pair of negative plates. | 09-30-2010 |
20130302713 | AIR SUPPLY AND EXHAUST STRUCTURE FOR FUEL CELL - An air supply and exhaust structure for supplying a reaction air to a fuel cell and exhausting the reaction air passing through the fuel cell includes: an intake duct configured to guide reaction air to the fuel cell; an exhaust duct configured to discharge the reaction air passing through the fuel cell to an outside of the fuel cell; a blower provided in the exhaust duct and configured to suck the reaction air passing through the fuel cell to promote discharge of the reaction air; and an exhaust side shield unit which is disposed inside the exhaust duct and between the fuel cell and the blower and configured to temporarily block the reaction air discharged from the fuel cell and to retain the reaction air in a periphery of the fuel cell so as to introduce the reaction air to the fuel cell. | 11-14-2013 |
