A fixing apparatus is capable of executing a first fixing mode for performing fixing processing at a first pressing force and a second fixing mode for performing fixing processing at a second pressing force that is lower than the first pressing force. When a pressing force applied to a fixing nip portion is set to the second pressing force, all of a first heating member pattern on a heater is contained within a contact region between a belt member and the heater, and at least a portion of a second heating member pattern is disposed outside the contact region, so that consumed power is reduced.

A semiconductor device for performing photoelectric conversion of incident light includes a substrate and a well region having different conductivity types. A depletion layer is generated in a vicinity of a junction interface between the substrate and the well region. A first trench has a depth equal to a height up to a top portion of the depletion layer generated on a bottom side of the well region and a width extending to a heavily doped region formed in the well region. A second trench has a depth larger than that of a portion of the depletion layer generated on the bottom side of the well region and a width larger than that of portions of the depletion layer generated on the sides of the well region. The second trench surrounds the first trench so as to confine the depletion layer under the first trench except for a region thereof under the heavily doped region. An insulator is buried into each the first trench and the second trench.

Around a damaged area of a jacket of a flexible tube, a top coat layer whose adhesion to a polymer layer is weak is peeled off with an adhesive tape. The damaged area and its immediate surrounding area are sanded, and then wiped with ethanol for cleaning. A main agent and a hardening agent are heated and defoamed while being mixed to prepare a repair material. The repair material is applied to the damaged area and the immediate surrounding area. A heat shrink tube is opened along slits in an end portion and covers the flexible tube. The heat shrink tube is shrunk with hot air, pressing the repair material and making it flush with a surface of the jacket. The flexible tube is heated with an electric hot plate to harden the repair material. Thereafter, the heat shrink tube is peeled off from the flexible tube.

A collecting member that collects suspended particles vaporized from wax includes a flow path and a space, where gas passes along the flow path. The space is connected to the flow path through an opening formed in the flow path. The space extends upstream with respect to a direction of travel of the gas that passes along the flow path. By virtue of this structure, dew condensation in a fixing unit is suppressed while efficiently collecting the suspended particles.

An imaging device includes a detector that repeatedly carries out a series of operation of generating an evaluation value to evaluate the degree of focusing of a position after driving of a lens toward one end part in the drive range of the lens, and detects the evaluation value of a position that is closer to the end part than the position of the evaluation value of the highest degree of focusing and is immediately adjacent or adjacent across a predetermined number of positions to the position of the evaluation value of the highest degree of focusing. The imaging device further includes a drive controller that makes the series of operation be repeatedly carried out toward the other end part in the drive range of the lens, and drives the lens to a position of a degree of focusing not smaller than the detected evaluation value.

摘要:
A semiconductor device for performing photoelectric conversion has a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type and a well region of a second conductivity type different from the first conductivity type and formed in a predetermined region of the semiconductor substrate. A pair of trenches are formed directly adjacent to respective opposite sides of the well region and have widths greater than those of respective depletion layers generated on the respective opposite sides so as to remove junction interfaces on the respective opposite sides. A depth of each trench from a surface of the semiconductor substrate is greater than that of a depletion layer generated on a bottom side of the well region. An insulating layer is buried in each of the trenches.
