An electric shaver including a hand grip 10 configured to be gripped by a user' s hand, and a blade head 20 provided on an upper end of the hand grip. The blade head carries at least one shaving unit 50 comprising an outer blade foil 70 and an inner blade 80 driven in a shearing engagement manner with the outer blade foil. The outer blade foil has a plurality of holes in which hairs are introduced. The outer blade foil is elongated and has a length, and is curved along a width direction to form a generally C-shaped cross section, and is curved convexly and uniformly along its length to have a longitudinal curved outline. A radius of to curvature of the longitudinal curved outline is 150 mm to 350 mm.

A process cartridge is detachably mountable to a main assembly of an electrophotographic image forming apparatus and which is transportable in a state of being mounted to the main assembly of the apparatus. The cartridge includes an electrophotographic photosensitive member, a developing roller for developing an electrostatic latent image formed on the member with a developer, a developer accommodating portion accommodating the developer and having a developer supply opening for permitting passage of the developer to supply the developer to the roller, a sealing member unsealably sealing the opening and a grip member, provided on the sealing member, for being gripped to unseal the opening when the sealing member is removed from the opening. The grip member is movable between a first position where the cartridge can move to a predetermined position in the main assembly to permit transportation of the cartridge when mounted to the main assembly, and a second position where the cartridge is prevented from moving to the predetermined position from the first position when the cartridge is dismounted from the predetermined position.

A support arm 27 that is rockably supported on one end of a grip portion 2 and projects from the one end is provided. Both ends of a blade head 3 are supported by the support arm 27 such that the blade head 3 can rock around an axis extending along a reciprocating direction of an inner blade 14, and an axial direction of the rocking motion of the support arm 27 with respect to the grip portion 2 is set in a direction intersecting with the reciprocating direction of the inner blade 14. This configuration achieves an electric shaver capable of increasing the movable range of the blade head while preventing a main body from increasing in size.

The present invention aims to provide hepatitis C virus inhibitors capable of inhibiting viral replication in hepatitis C virus-infected cells.The replication of hepatitis C virus can be inhibited and hepatitis C virus-infected cells can be specifically injured by specifically inhibiting BGT-1 or AKR1C1 involved in the replication of hepatitis C virus. Thus, viral inhibitors comprising a substance inhibiting BGT-1 or AKR1C1 are effective for the treatment of hepatitis C.

An imaging device includes an image sensor having a plurality of chromatic color pixels and high-sensitivity pixels having higher sensitivity to incident light than the chromatic color pixels arranged in a checkerboard pattern, a correlation detector that detects correlation of an imaged subject from a signal component of the high-sensitivity pixels and a signal component of the chromatic color pixels, a color judgment block that judges whether or not the imaged subject is of chromatic color from the signal component of the chromatic color pixels, and a pixel interpolator that switches between pixel interpolation methods according to the signal judged in the color judgment block that judges whether or not the subject is of chromatic color, the pixel interpolator giving high priority to interpolation using pixels showing strong correlation based on the information from the correlation detector when the color judgment block judges that the subject is of chromatic color.

The invention includes a base member attached to a casing. The inside of the casing can be a vacuum atmosphere. A partition wall is provided on the base member, the base member separating an air atmosphere and the vacuum atmosphere. A rotating member (a rotating portion of a driving source) is provided on the base member at a position different from the rotating member. An armature, which is a dust source, is provided on the air atmosphere side of the partition wall, thereby maintaining high cleanliness on the vacuum atmosphere side. Providing the partition wall and the rotating member at different positions eliminates the necessity of consideration on the rigidity of the partition wall for supporting the rotating member, thereby reducing the thickness of the partition wall. In addition, it is possible to reduce affection by deflection generated by the inertia or vibration caused by rotation of the rotating member, so that a distance between the armature and a magnet in the rotating member can be narrower than the related art. Accordingly, high accuracy in stopping positions can be realized.
