    摘要: A power control apparatus includes a power detection circuit to detect DC power converted from AC power supplied from a power supply and to be supplied to a control board of an image forming apparatus. The power control apparatus includes circuitry configured to, in response to a first printing operation performed by the image forming apparatus, calculate fluctuations in the DC power in each preset control period from a start of the first printing operation until stabilization of the DC power. The power control apparatus includes, in response to a printing operation subsequent to the first printing operation performed by the image forming apparatus, determine allocation of the AC power to a fixing device of the image forming apparatus in a next preset control period based on power obtained by adding, to the DC power, an average of the fluctuations in a plurality of preset control periods.

    摘要: A refrigerant compressor includes a compression unit having a roller and a vane for compressing refrigerant. The vane has a film having first to fourth layers on its metallic base member. The first layer is made of chromium. The second layer is made of chromium and tungsten-carbide. The third layer is made of metal-containing amorphous-carbon containing at least tungsten or tungsten-carbide. The fourth layer is made of non-metal-containing amorphous-carbon containing carbon and hydrogen. In the second layer, chromium content-rate on a first-layer side is larger than on a third-layer side, and tungsten-carbide content-rate on the third-layer side is larger than on the first-layer side. In the third layer, content-rate of the at least tungsten or tungsten-carbide on a second-layer side is larger than on a fourth-layer side.
