A blood vessel image input apparatus is provided which is capable of acquiring a high-precision image of blood vessels of a body part, such as a finger, even if the finger is swept at a non-constant speed. The apparatus includes a solid-state line image sensor, a light source for illuminating the inside of the finger with light, an imaging optical system adapted to focus the light, emitted from the light source and passed through the inside of the finger, on the solid-state line image sensor such that a blood vessel image representing a network structure of veins in the finger is formed on the solid-state line image sensor, and a blood vessel image forming unit adapted to form a complete image of blood vessels by connecting a plurality of partial blood vessel images captured by the solid-state line image sensor while sweeping the finger.

A printing method comprises the steps of: in a first movement, moving a print head to form dots on a medium at aperiodic intervals in a moving direction of the print head, wherein the print head includes N pieces of nozzles arranged at a constant pitch in a direction that intersects with the moving direction, wherein the N pieces of nozzles are for forming N dots of a same color, and wherein N is an integer of at least two; in second through M-th movements, moving the print head to form, on the medium, the rest of the dots that were not formed in the first movement, wherein M is an integer of at least two; and repeating the first through M-th movements to print information on the medium.
摘要:
Actuator independently dedicated to nozzles divided into a plurality of groups are fixed to a common flow path unit having the nozzles formed therein with through holes aligned with one another. Heads of various types can be formed by using the actuator units of the same design only by changing the mode of arrangement of the nozzles in accordance with the purpose.

An ink jet recording head that is formed by laminating a plurality of thin plate members, each having a plurality of holes. The holes of the adjacently stacked thin plate members cooperate to form ink flow paths each continuously extending to communicate a nozzle opening with a respective pressure producing chamber, which is connected to an ink supply section. In such ink jet recording head, the holes can be aligned or shifted with respect to each other, and allow ink to flow smoothly, thus preventing stagnation of air bubbles contained in the ink within the print head. Further, the nozzles openings are arranged in arrays in an auxiliary scanning direction. The nozzle opening arrays are divided into three groups spaced apart from each other at a predetermined interval in a main scanning direction. Nozzle openings belonging to groups arranged on both sides of the middle group are positioned vertically between adjacent nozzle openings of the middle group. A nozzle opening of the middle group is positioned uppermost or lowermost in the auxiliary scanning direction, so that lines printed by the nozzle openings belonging to the groups arranged at both sides interpose a line printed by the nozzle openings of the middle group to reducing inter-line error due to misalignment of the recording head with respect to a printing sheet.
摘要:
A liquid crystal display is disclosed having switching devices corresponding to pixel electrodes formed on the same semiconductor layer that has a drive circuit therein. The drive circuit is formed on the semiconductor layer in a single crystal semiconductor region and the switching devices are formed either in a second single crystal semiconductor region or in a non-single crystal semiconductor region. The second single crystal semiconductor region or the non-single crystal semiconductor region bearing the switching devices has a higher density of defects than the first semiconductor region.

摘要:
A method for printing a letter, character or a figure on an inner ear type headphone, which is a molded body of a thermoplastic synthetic resin, by irradiating the surface with a laser light, and a headphone housing on which the letter etc. has been printed by the above method. The printing is performed by irradiating the surface of the synthetic resin molded body with a laser light for expanding any moisture or air contained in the molded body for foaming the surface. Printing is achieved in the form of foamed regions of the synthetic resin and hence is clear and superior in abrasion resistance and durability.
