Abstract:
The invention is objected to perform fixing in an optimum fixing condition even with various kinds of recording materials or the like while improving usability by discriminating the kinds of recording materials. An image reading sensor 123 includes a reflective LED 301, a transmissive LED 303 disposed on the opposite side relative to a recording material 304 for detecting the transmitted amount of light, a CMOS area sensor 211, and an imaging lens 1113. The light from the reflective LED 301 as a light source is applied toward the surface of the recording material 304, and the reflected light from the recording material 304 is collected via the lens 303 and an image is formed on the CMOS area sensor 211. The LED 301 is disposed so as to apply LED light to the surface of the recording material 304 diagonally at a predetermined angle.

Abstract:
In an electronic component placing apparatus, four magazines are mounted on a head, and yet electronic components are housed in each magazine. In this apparatus, by an operation of selectively inserting a suction nozzle into four insertion openings in the magazines, it is possible to load a desired electronic component on a substrate, and this component loading can be repeatedly performed until the housed components are exhausted.
Abstract:
A winding apparatus for sheet-shaped molding material wherein slippage in the width direction can be prevented when the sheet-shaped molding material is wound around a winding core tube, because side plates are detachably mounted on both ends in the axial direction of the winding core tube. Thus, the slippage during the winding operation can be prevented, so that the weight of the molding material being wound can be increased, whereby a thick, wide thick molding compound can be rolled.
Abstract:
An apparatus for coating the flat surface of a substrate with a coating material is disclosed in which only a minimum amount of coating material is required for uniformly coating the entire surface of the substrate in an efficient manner under a variety of coating conditions, even if the substrate surface takes a non-circular configuration. According to one embodiment, the flat surface of the substrate is first coated with a coating material, and the substrate thus coated is then spunned at predetermined number of revolutions per minute. According to another embodiment, the apparatus includes a support table on which the substrate is fixedly mounted. A plurality of shaping members are slidably mounted on the support table for forming with the flat non-circular-shaped surface of the substrate a flat continuously extending circular-shaped surface. A plurality of biasing members are provided one for each shaping member for biasing the shaping members radially inwards into intimate contact at their inner sides with the peripheral side surfaces of the substrate mounted on the support table. A plurality of level adjusting mechanisms are provided on the shaping members for adjusting the surface of the shaping members to be flush with the flat surface of the substrate.
Abstract:
The timing of obtaining an output value for use in a determination of a recording medium is generated from a received ultrasonic wave and a waveform generated by delaying the ultrasonic wave, whereby it is possible to reduce an influence of a reflection wave from the peripheral members and an influence of a change in the environment to improve the accuracy of determination of the recoding medium.
Abstract:
A liquid crystal display device has pixel electrodes including a transmissive pixel electrode and a reflective pixel electrode. The liquid crystal display device includes a TFT array substrate, an opposing substrate, a sealing material that bonds both substrates, an organic film formed on the TFT array substrate and having a thick film portion provided below the pixel electrode and a thin film portion provided outside the thick film portion, a columnar spacer formed on the opposing substrate and holding substrate gap between the both substrates, and a gap retaining pad formed in a region outside the display region and inside the sealing material to adjust the substrate gap outside the display region according to the substrate gap on the pixel electrode. The columnar spacer holds the substrate gap between both substrates over the gap retaining pad and over the pixel electrode.
