摘要:
In a color printer in which a drive force of a fixed gear that rotates not in both a forward direction and a reverse direction but in either one direction only is transmitted to a discharging unit, a swing gear is attached to a branch guide via a switching link and a transmission link as a link mechanism. When a solenoid mechanism starts driving, the transmission link rotates. In accordance with the rotation of the transmission link, the switching link rotates, so that a switching among a discharge conveying path, a duplex-printing conveying path, and a switchback conveying path by the branch guide and a switching of a rotating direction of a transmission gear can be simultaneously performed.

In a recording medium conveyer, a driver drives a feeding member and a conveying member provided downstream from the feeding member in a recording medium conveyance direction independently. A controller stops driving the feeding member when a first time period elapses after a recording medium reaches the conveying member. When a selector judges that the thickness of the recording medium identifies the recording medium as thin paper, the controller does not drive the feeding member after the controller starts driving the conveying member, and when the selector judges that the recording medium has a thickness greater than a thickness of the recording medium that identifies the recording medium as thin paper, the controller restarts driving the feeding member no later than when the controller starts driving the conveying member.

A table forming unit calculates, in a weighted reproducing kernel Hilbert space formed of an absolutely continuous function that is zero at an origin, solutions of simultaneous equations obtained by discretization of an integral equation of the second kind derived from Tikhonov regularization method with a weighted square integrable space used as an observation space, and forms an H table describing information including numerical solution of the integral equation of the second kind based on the solutions of the simultaneous equations. An inverse transform unit obtains, by numerical calculation, an inner product, in the weighted square integrable space, of the numerical solution of the integral equation of the second kind and a Laplace transform image multiplied by a mollifier function with reference to the H table.

A sheet conveyance apparatus includes a sheet conveyance path, a first conveyance mechanism located upstream in the sheet conveyance path, and a first drive mechanism configured to drive the first conveyance mechanism. The apparatus further includes a second conveyance mechanism located downstream in the sheet conveyance path, a second drive mechanism configured to drive the second conveyance mechanism, a first intermediate conveyance mechanism located between the first and second conveyance mechanisms in the sheet conveyance path, and a first drive transmission mechanism configured to intermittently transmit drive force from the first drive mechanism to the first intermediate conveyance mechanism. The sheet conveyance apparatus can be provided in an image forming apparatus.

A sheet-discharging device includes an upper discharging roller, a lower discharging roller, and a protruding member. The protruding member allows discharging of a sheet to outside from the nip between the upper discharging roller and the lower discharging roller, and prevents taking-in of a sheet that has already been discharged.

A conveying device conveys a sheet of non-blank recording medium recorded with an image formed in an image forming unit, and includes a container that is detachable and contains a sheet of blank recording medium, a feeding unit that feeds the blank recording medium from the container, and a recirculating path that leads the non-blank recording medium to the feeding unit. The recirculating path is disposed lateral to the image forming unit. A part of the recirculating path is integrated into the container and forms a reversing path that leads to the feeding unit. At least one of surfaces of the reversing path can be exposed.

A library control system includes a library device for storing plural recording media, plural host devices for requesting for an access to the recording media, and a channel switch device for controlling connection between the host device and the library device. The library device has plural drive units and a carriage unit for carrying a recording medium. The channel switch device has a logic switch for connecting plural host devices and plural drive units in accordance with a predetermined zone map, and a zone manager for setting the zone map. Each of the host devices has a zone controller for requesting the zone manager to set a zone map each time an access request is sent from the controller. The zone manager sets a zone map so that one of the plural drive units and one of the plural host devices belong to one zone and another host device does not belong to the zone to which the one drive unit and the one host device already belong.
