    Abstract: A thermal printer includes a sprocket wheel (11) for forwarding sheets, a platen roller (9), a thermal head (26) pressed on the platen roller (9), and a reduction gear (8) by which a rotating drive of a motor is reduced and is communicated to the sprocket wheel (11) and the platen roller (9). The sprocket wheel (11) is engaged with perforations (33) of a transfer sheet (4), and the transfer sheet (4) and an ink ribbon (21) are forwarded while being tightly sandwiched between the platen roller (9) and the thermal head (26), and the ink of the ink ribbon (21) is thermally transferred onto the transfer sheet (4) by the thermal head (26). In the thermal printer, a gear (10) with a friction clutch is disposed between the platen roller (9) and the reduction gear (8), and the peripheral speed of the platen roller (9) is set to be higher than that of the sprocket wheel (11). A torque limitation value of the friction-clutch gear (10) is set equal to or less than a feeding load imposed between the transfer sheet (4) and the ink ribbon (21).

    Abstract: A printer case adaptable to print individual sheets of paper and fan-fold computer paper has a bottom case and a cover pivotably supported on the cover. The printer components are supported within the bottom case and a sheet guide is pivotably supported on the cover. The sheet guide pivots between a first position for guiding individual sheets into the printer and a second position for guiding fan-fold paper out of the printer once printing has occurred. A coupling structure is provided for pivotably coupling the cover to the bottom so that the cover may pivot between a first position in which the cover is closed to permit printing to occur and a second position in which the cover is open to expose the printer components and permit insertion of fan-fold paper.

    Abstract: A fuel cell system has a plurality of fuel cells stacked in one or more groups of fuel cells. Each fuel cell includes a fuel electrode supplied with fuel gas at a fuel gas supply pressure, an oxidizing electrode supplied with oxidizing gas at an oxidizing gas supply pressure, and an electrolyte membrane disposed between the fuel electrode and the oxidizing electrode. A pressure-difference control unit generates a pressure difference across the membrane such that the fuel gas supply pressure is greater than the oxidizing gas supply pressure in each fuel cell, a cell-voltage measuring device measures a cell voltage for each fuel cell or each group of fuel cells in the fuel cell stack, and a leakage determination unit determines the presence or absence of a leaking cell based on the behavior of the cell voltage of each fuel cell while the pressure difference is increased with time.

    Abstract: There is provided a printing method using a first motor that applies a driving force for rotating a roll body around which a printing medium is wound, a second motor that applies a driving force for intermittently driving a transport driving roller that transports the printing medium, and a print head that intermittently ejects ink onto the printing medium alternately with the driving of the second motor. The printing method includes driving the first motor such that tension applied to the printing medium is constant during at least a part of a period in which the second motor is driven and stopping the driving of the first motor during at least a part of a period in which the driving of the second motor is stopped.
