The present invention relates to a developing apparatus for developing an electrostatic latent image formed on an electrophotographic photosensitive drum using a developing agent, including a developing agent carrier for supplying the developing agent to the photosensitive drum to develop the electrostatic latent image formed on the photosensitive drum, a layer thickness limiting member for limiting the layer thickness of the developing agent carried on a surface of the developing agent carrier, the layer thickness limiting member being disposed with a gap to the developing agent carrier, a sealing member for restricting the developing agent from leaking out of an end in a longitudinal direction of the developing agent carriers and an elastic member arranged in contact with the developing agent carrier to prevent the gap between the developing agent carrier and the layer thickness limiting member from changing upon bending of the developing agent carrier. The elastic member is in contact with the developing agent carrier at an outer position with respect to a position at which the sealing member is disposed.

A video magnifier includes a body including a base, a table on which an object to be read is placed, the table being disposed on the base, a video camera disposed over the table, an illumination lamp illuminating the object placed on the table and a pointer irradiating a part of the object photographed by the video camera, and a monitor television displaying a video image delivered from the video camera. In the video magnifier, in synchronization with irradiation of the photographed part of the object by the pointer, an illuminance of the illumination lamp is rendered lower than an illuminance of the pointer.

A process cartridge includes an electrophotographic photosensitive member, a developer for developing a latent image formed on the electrophotographic photosensitive member, a developer remaining amount detecting member for detecting a remaining amount of developer in the developer, and a non-volatile memory for memorizing information corresponding to at least the print number of sheets and the developer remaining amount in such a manner that such information can be read out and re-written by an image forming apparatus. The present invention also provides and electrophotographic image forming apparatus to which such a process cartridge can be detachably mounted.
摘要:
A phase difference measuring apparatus obtains a first receive signal by transmitting and receiving a to-be-measured material in a reference state and a second receive signal by transmitting and receiving a signal wave to and from that material in a measured state. The apparatus finds a reference phase difference .theta..sub.1 from the transmit wave and first receive signal and an apparent phase difference .theta..sub.2 ' from the transmit wave and second receive signal. The apparatus adds the apparent phase difference .theta..sub.2 ' to a product of the number of rotations, n, the apparent phase difference .theta..sub.2 ' passes through a given reference point and an angle of 360.degree. to find a true phase difference .theta..sub.2. The apparatus varies the number of rotations, n, to n+1 when the apparent phase difference .theta..sub.2 ', while being increased, passes through the reference point and that number of rotations, n, to n=n-1 when the apparent phase difference .theta..sub.2 ', while being decreased, passes through the reference point.

摘要:
A semiconductor memory device has an address translator and a comparator. An entry of the address translator includes an associative memory cell array for storing and comparing a logical address of at least m bits. A first decoder generates a first word signal for the associative memory cell array. A first random access memory cell array stores a physical address of m bits. A controller generates a word signal for the first random access memory cell according to the first word signal and a result of a comparison by the associative memory cell array. A second random access memory cell stores a physical address of m bits. The second random access memory cell is physically disposed near the first random access memory cell array. A second decoder generates a second word signal for the second random access memory cell array. Outputs of the first and second random access memory cell arrays are connected to and compared by the comparator which outputs a signal upon coincidence between the outputs of the first and second random access memory cell arrays.
