Abstract:
A recording apparatus includes: a platen in which first suction holes passing through from a medium support surface to a rear surface are formed; first pressure chambers provided to communicate with the first suction holes; a second pressure chamber disposed on the side opposite to the platen and communicating with the first pressure chambers; a wall section which is disposed between the first pressure chambers and the second pressure chamber and in which second suction holes each making the first pressure chamber and the second pressure chamber communicate with each other are formed; a suction mechanism which suctions rolled paper on the medium support surface through the first and second suction holes; and a slide plate movable in a parallel fashion along the wall section and provided with blocking portions having different lengths in a direction of parallel movement and capable of blocking the second suction holes.
Abstract:
Dividing or splitting data (e.g., images) of a file may be performed by allowing a user to preview or otherwise view the intended division prior to the splitting of the images in the file into separate files. The division may be shown in a display by visually distinguishing between the designated groups. Visual distinctions may include color filtering, use of a division mark, use of grouping frames, labeling and the like and/or combinations thereof. By allowing a user to view the intended groupings, a user may further cancel designated groupings prior to splitting the images into the separate files.
Abstract:
There is provided a non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor of an information processing apparatus including a displaying device, cause the processor to execute processes of receiving a designation of the group of images to be displayed on the displaying device, judging whether arrangement information representing an arranging direction of a group of images when displayed on the displaying device is associated with the designated group of images, displaying the designated group of images on the displaying device such that: (1) when the designated group of images is associated with the arrangement information, the designated group of images are displayed with the arranging direction represented by the arrangement information, and (2) when the designated group of images is not associated with the arrangement information, the designated group of images are displayed with a predetermined default arranging direction.
Abstract:
A target supporting apparatus includes a first supporting member having a plurality of first suction holes open to the front surface of the member and the rear surface thereof; a second supporting member having a plurality of second suction holes formed therein and being stacked on and fixed to the first supporting member, the cross-sectional area of each of the plurality of second suction holes being smaller than the cross-sectional area of each of the plurality of first suction holes; and a sucking unit that sucks in the plurality of first suction holes and hence sucks in the plurality of second suction holes communicating with the plurality of first suction holes. Here, a target which is supported in order for a liquid to be adhered thereto is sucked and held onto a supporting face of the second supporting member due to the driving of the sucking unit.
Abstract:
A motor controlling device includes an encoder to output pulse signals with a predetermined angle interval as a rotor of a motor is rotated. An energized phase of the motor is sequentially switched by detecting a rotation position of the rotor based on a value of counting the signals. An initial drive controlling portion executes an initial drive to switch the energized phase with a predetermined pattern after the device is activated so as to learn a relationship among the count value, the rotation position and the energized phase. An initial drive prohibiting portion prohibits the execution of the initial drive until a predetermined time is elapsed after the initial drive is finished.
Abstract:
A method for producing an organic thin film transistor having, on a substrate, a source electrode, a gate electrode, a drain electrode, an insulating layer and an organic semiconductor layer. The method has a step of forming the source electrode and the drain electrode such that one of the source electrode and the drain electrode which is an inner-located electrode has an outer circumference which is circular or polygonal and that the other electrode which is an outer-located electrode has an inner circumference facing the outer circumference of the inner-located electrode, the inner circumference being of a shape which is substantially concentric with the outer circumference of the inner-located electrode. The method also has a step of forming the organic semiconductor layer for connecting the source electrode and the drain electrode to each other by a process of dropping an organic semiconductor material.
Abstract:
An insertion system includes a folding device to perform either single-sheet folding to fold a single sheet at a time or batch folding to fold multiple sheets together at a time, an insertion device to insert into an envelope the sheet folded by the folding device, and a batch setting unit to designate either the single-sheet folding or the batch folding from a folding and insertion menu for multiple sheets at a time when the multiple sheets are processed by the folding device and the insertion device.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of forming an organic semiconductor layer comprising the steps of preparing a substrate having a groove formed on the surface, applying, to the surface of the substrate, a droplet of an organic semiconductor liquid in which an organic semiconductor material is dissolved or dispersed in a solvent, and drying the droplet to form the organic semiconductor layer, wherein the droplet is applied to a position of the substrate where a part of the circumference of the droplet is introduced into the groove.
Abstract:
A fluid brake device has a case defining a fluid chamber. Magneto-rheological fluid is contained in the fluid chamber. A brake member is rotatably supported on the case and receives a braking torque according to the viscosity of the magneto-rheological fluid. The device has a movable member driven by a thermo-sensitive wax so that a volume of the fluid chamber is increased as the temperature in the fluid chamber is increased. The movable member is driven to maintain a pressure in the fluid chamber within an allowable range when the temperature in the fluid chamber is changed.
