摘要:
A light flash control apparatus is used for an endoscope in which a solid-state image sensor is employed. A image signal derived from the solid-state image sensor during the illumination by a halogen lamp is also utilized as a photo-metric signal. An adequate quantity of flashlight for the image sensor is calculated in advance based upon the photo-metric signal. The calculated exposure time i.e., the desirable quantity of flashlight is stored in an integration circuit. After the given exposure time passes since the flash tube is ignited, it is forcibly turned-off by a turn-off thyristor.

A photographing apparatus includes a central processing unit to which input information is supplied inclusive of film speed, correction factors to correct for the failure of the reciprocity law and other photographing conditions which are based on such input information, controls a selective connection of integrating capacitors in an integrating circuit and calculates an expected exposure period and the remainder of the exposure period in which the failure of the reciprocity law is corrected for.

A fluid diverting assembly particularly suited for use as a component for a fluid exit structure of an air-conditioner, which has a passageway through which a fluid medium flows. The passageway includes a nozzle for issuing a fluid stream as the fluid medium passes therethrough, a pair of spaced opposed guide walls having a shape diverging from each other in a direction downstream with respect to the direction of flow of the fluid stream and opening outwardly in a direction away from the nozzle, and a deflecting blade supported in the passageway between the upstream and downstream ends of the nozzle for movement between first and second extreme positions for changing the direction of flow of the fluid stream emerging from the passageway in such a manner as to control mutual interference between one of currents flowing on one side of the deflecting blade and the adjacent guide wall thereby controlling the direction of flow of the fluid stream.

A method of preparing aqueous solutions of sterol glycosides and their ester derivatives characterized by solubilizing sterol glycosides and their ester derivatives by (1) dissolving said sterol glycoside or ester in a lower aliphatic alcohol and subsequently adding a hydrophilic non-ionic surface active agent, or (2) mixing or dissolving said sterol glycoside or ester with or in a lipophilic surface active agent or its solution in an organic solvent miscible with water and subsequently adding a hydrophilic surface active agent.

A powder conveying device includes a drop conveyance passage, an intersecting conveyance passage, a conveying screw, and a floating member. Powder entering from an inflow port drops in the drop conveyance passage. The intersecting conveyance passage communicates with a lower end of the drop conveyance passage and extends in an intersecting direction that intersects the drop conveyance passage. The conveying screw is disposed in the intersecting conveyance passage and rotates in a specified direction to convey the powder in the intersecting direction. The floating member is movably installed in the drop conveyance passage and floats in the drop conveyance passage to move by contact with the conveying screw. The inflow port and the floating member interfere with each other to prevent the floating member from coming out of the inflow port of the drop conveyance passage.

An inkjet ink including: a stilbene-based compound represented by General Formula (1) below; where in the General Formula (1), R1 and R3 each independently represent, for example, an alkyl group including 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an alkenyl group including 1 to 20 carbon atoms, a phenyl group, or a naphthyl group.
摘要:
A powder container is insertable in an image forming apparatus. The powder container includes a plurality of transmitted surfaces, at least one of the transmitted surfaces being configured to contact a first protrusion of the linage forming apparatus, the first protrusion being rotatable and protruding toward an upstream side in an insertion direction in which the powder container is inserted. The transmitted surfaces stand outward from an outer circumference of the powder container so that one of the transmitted surfaces is connected to another transmitted surface adjacent to the one of the transmitted surfaces by an inclined surface.

A developing device includes a developer container to contain developer including toner and magnetic carrier, the developer container; a developer bearer to carry, by rotation, the developer to a developing range facing a latent image bearer; a communication opening in a wall defining the developer container; a toner conveyance passage connected to the communication opening; and a cylindrical magnet having a magnetic pole arrangement parallel to an axis of the cylindrical magnet. The cylindrical magnet is disposed to enclose a space overlapping with the communication opening on a cross section perpendicular to the axis of the cylindrical magnet.
摘要:
A developing device includes a developer bearer to carry, by rotation, developer including toner and magnetic carrier to a developing range facing a latent image bearer; a casing including a developer container and an opening to expose a part of the developer bearer disposed in the casing; an opposing face of the casing including a conductive material and opposing to a surface of the developer bearer downstream from the developing range in a direction of rotation of the developer bearer; a developing bias source to apply a developing bias to the developer bearer; and an insulation layer disposed on the opposing face of the casing. The opposing face is disposed across, from the developer bearer, a casing gap sized to allow the developer borne on the developer bearer to contact the opposing face.
