Abstract:
A disclosed image forming apparatus for forming an image on a recording medium includes an inkjet head having a nozzle surface and inkjet nozzles on the nozzle surface and configured to jet ink droplets from the inkjet nozzles; a recording medium conveying mechanism including a recording medium conveyor and configured to convey the recording medium by the recording medium conveyor into an image forming area facing the inkjet head; a test pattern forming part provided separately from the recording medium conveyor; a control unit configured to perform an image forming test where a test pattern is formed on the test pattern forming part by jetting ink droplets from the inkjet head; and a test pattern detection unit configured to detect the test pattern formed on the test pattern forming part.
Abstract:
The die as provided is a die in which an upper block is placed on an upper surface of a lower block with a lower surface of the upper block in contact with the upper surface, wherein the lower block includes a manifold and a slit serving as a path for discharging paint from the manifold to the outside, constituted respectively from between the lower block and the lower surface of the upper block by forming a cavity and a space which communicates with the outside from this cavity along a columnar direction, respectively, from one end face of a columnar body with a trapezoidal shape of cross section to the other end face, a paint supply path which communicates with the manifold is formed from an outer side located between the one end face and the other end face of the lower block, a slit space dimension of the slit between front end portions in a paint discharge direction of the lower block and the upper block in a discharge port serving as an open end to the outside is smallest on the one end face side and increases toward the other end face side, and a slit length which is a dimension along the paint discharge direction of a space forming surface of the lower block constituting the slit is largest on at least one of the one end face side and the other end face side and is smallest in a position between both the end faces.

The power absorbing unit is provided with one or a plurality of power absorbing elements, and an operation of the power absorbing element is selected in a switching unit, and thereby power consumption of the large power element is controlled within a determined range.
Abstract:
A structuring unit generates a combination pattern of the attribute values by combining an attribute value of the assessment target data with an attribute value indicating a unspecified value. A reconstructing unit searches data matching the combination pattern from the accumulation data, and generates subset data. An index setting unit sets an index indicating significance of relationship between the generated subset data with assessment data. An assessing unit selects subset data that becomes a basis of assessment, based on the set index, and performs an assessment on a prediction result based on the selected subset data.
Abstract:
A sealing device in which a main seal lip used for a shock absorber is formed in a one-stage structure, wherein lattice-shaped projections that include a plurality of projections extending along a sliding direction and a plurality of projections extending along a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction are formed on a sliding surface of the main lip at a position apart a specified distance from a lip edge.
Abstract:
A cleaning unit for use in an inkjet recording apparatus, having an inkjet head including a nozzle face, includes a first wiping member and a second wiping member. The first wiping member slides on the nozzle face in a given direction while in contact with the nozzle face to remove ink from the nozzle face and accumulate the ink to one side of the nozzle face. The second wiping member, disposed rearward of the first wiping member with respect to the given direction, removes the ink accumulated by the first wiping member.
Abstract:
A method for producing a polymer electrolyte membrane type fuel cell including a polymer electrolyte membrane, fuel and air electrodes that sandwich therebetween the polymer electrolyte membrane and that each include a gas diffusion layer and a catalyst layer provided in contact with the polymer electrolyte membrane, and separators provided in contact with the gas diffusion layers. A paste containing at least a carbon powder having a catalyst supported thereon is spread over a predetermined support, and the coated support is dried to form the catalyst layer. A cracking occupation area on the electrodes is controlled to a predetermined tolerance by controlling at least one of (1) a thickness of the catalyst layer, (2) a kind of carbon having the catalyst supported thereon, and (3) a drying rate of a solvent of the paste.
