According to one embodiment, a sheet processing apparatus includes a reinforce roller to further reinforce the fold of a sheet which has been folded by a fold roller pair, a support portion to move the reinforce roller in a direction perpendicular to a sheet conveying direction, a sensor to sense a position of the support portion, a distance sensing portion to sense a distance to a first position and a distance to a second position from a stop position of the support portion, when the sensor senses an abnormal stop of the support portion, and a control unit to compare the distance to the first position and the distance to the second position sensed by the distance sensing portion and to control the support portion to move in a direction where a moving distance is shorter.
Abstract:
An image erasing apparatus includes: a supply unit which supplies a recording medium; a collection unit which collects the recording medium supplied by the supply unit; plural carrying roller pairs which carry the recording medium supplied by the supply unit, toward the collection unit; a detection unit which acquires information about a metallic foreign matter adhering to the recording medium; a heating unit which heats the recording medium to a color erasing temperature of a developer or higher; and a carrying control unit which decelerates a rotation speed of the plural carrying roller pairs from a first speed to a second speed when the information about the metallic foreign matter is acquired by the detection unit.
Abstract:
An automotive airbag apparatus is able to reduce the shock caused by early deployment of airbag against a passenger not in a position for safe airbag restraint, and further able to deploy quickly and effectively when a passenger is in a position for safe restraint. The airbag apparatus includes an airbag housing in which a folded airbag resides until deployed by the gas from an inflator, an airbag door that opens on a hinge from the pressure applied by the deploying airbag, and a restrictor member extending over the folded airbag beneath the airbag door with a direction from front to rear of the vehicle. The restrictor member has a fixed end at forward part thereof attached to the airbag housing, and a releasable fixed or free end at rearward part thereof, the free end coming into frictional contact with the airbag door in the vicinity of the hinge as the airbag door is pushed out by the early phase of the airbag deployment.

Abstract:
A communication unit transmits image data of a preceding sheet scanned to a management device communicating with a decoloring device and receives from a management device determination data which is produced by the management device based on the image data and indicates at least whether or not the preceding sheet is reusable and receives ability data of the management device or reception time indication data. A control unit conveys the preceding sheet to a predetermined conveyance destination based on the determination data and feeds sheets at a timing at which the leading end of a following sheet does not run into the tail end of the preceding sheet even if the preceding sheet is held until the determination data is received based on the ability data or the reception time indication data.
