摘要:
Cast-coated papers having high surface gloss, smoothness and high surface strength are produced by applying an aqueous pigment coating onto the surface of a base paper, drying the applied pigment coating to form a cast-coated layer, rewetting the pigment coating layer with a rewetting solution, pressing the rewetted pigment coating layer into contact with a heated, highly polished drum to impart a high gloss surface, the rewetting solution containing a dispersant and/or a release agent as its main components and having its pH adjusted to be between 2 and 4 by incorporation of at least one carboxylic acid selected from the group consisting of formic acid, acetic acid, tartatic acid, citric acid, lactic acid, succinic acid, malic acid and benzoic acid.

A liquid supply device includes a first tank to store a liquid, a first pump to supply the liquid from the first tank to a liquid pan, as a first supply operation, a second tank coupled to the first tank, and a second pump to supply the liquid from the second tank to the first tank, as a second supply operation. The liquid supply device further includes circuitry configured to control the first supply operation and the second supply operation. The circuitry accumulates operation time of the first supply operation and starts the second supply operation at a start of the first supply operation under a condition where a cumulative operation time of the first supply operation is equal to or longer than a threshold.

In a fixing apparatus of an image forming apparatus, a heating member melts and fixes the unfixed toner. A heat controller controls temperatures of opposite end portion areas and a middle portion area of a surface of the heating member in a width direction perpendicular to a conveyance direction on an individual area basis. A pressure member is pressed against and contacted with the heating member to form a fixing part between the pressure member and the heating member. The heat controller controls the temperatures of the surface of the heating member so that the temperature of at least one of the opposite end portion areas of the surface of the heating member is higher than the temperature of the middle portion area of the surface of the heating member.

An image processing device includes an image acquirer for acquiring an image, a depth of field calculator for calculating an estimate representing a depth of field of an image based on collateral information of the image, an image divider for dividing the image into evaluation regions, and a blur evaluator for detecting a blur in each of the evaluation regions divided by the image divider, performing blur evaluation for calculating evaluation values for evaluating degrees of an out-of-focus blur or a camera/subject movement-caused blur, and calculating an evaluation value of the image from the evaluation values of the evaluation regions based on the estimated depth of field.
摘要:
In a coolant system, the interior of a reservoir frame storing the coolant discharged from a machine tool is partitioned by a partition member into an outer peripheral coolant tub and a central coolant tub. The partition member is formed with a silt that extends in the depth direction to make the outer peripheral coolant tub communicate with the central coolant tub. A suction port of a pump that feeds the coolant in the central coolant tub to a filtering device is arranged in the central coolant tub. The coolant discharged from the machine tool is supplied to the central coolant tub without passing through the outer peripheral coolant tub. At least a part of the coolant filtered by the filtering device is supplied to the outer peripheral coolant tub without passing through the central coolant tub.

A communications terminal is provided, which includes a reading device which reads in access information recorded on a prescribed recording medium, the access information being necessary for acquiring content which can be played back by a playback device from a prescribed server via a network; and a playback control device which controls the playback device and the reading device. The playback control device controls receiving the content and metadata from the server, and playing back the content according to the metadata, if the content corresponding to the read access information is not stored in the storage device when the reading device reads in the access information; and the playback control device controls playing back the content stored in the storage device according to the metadata stored in the storage device in association with the content, if the content corresponding to the read access information is stored in the storage device.
摘要:
An imaging apparatus including a first recording apparatus (optical disk drive) for recording information on a removable/loadable recording medium and a second recording apparatus (HDD) for recording information on a recording medium incorporated therein, in which the first recording apparatus is provided with a lid portion to be opened/closed for removing/loading a recording medium and a lid opening/closing mechanism for opening/closing the lid portion and opening operation of the lid portion by the lid opening/closing mechanism is inhibited while the second recording apparatus is in an access state.

The areas of the transparent electrodes of the row electrodes constituting each row electrode pair facing the required discharge cells vary in accordance with the positions of the corresponding discharge cells within the panel screen. Required column electrodes of a plurality of column electrodes, which are provided for allowing an opposing discharge to be initiated across the discharge space between the column electrode and a row electrode of each row electrode pair in each discharge cell of the PDP, have portions facing the transparent electrodes of the row electrodes and provided with widened portions. The areas of the widened portions vary in accordance with the positions of the corresponding discharge cells within the panel screen.

In a gas discharge display apparatus, a dielectric layer overlies the row electrode pairs provided between the opposing front and back glass substrates placed across the discharge space. A protective layer for the dielectric layer includes a crystalline MgO layer that has a property causing a cathode-luminescence emission having a peak within a wavelength range of 200 nm to 300 nm upon excitation by electron beams. A red phosphor layer generating visible light by being excited by vacuum ultraviolet light includes a mixed phosphor of a first phosphor of (Y, Gd)BO3:Eu or the like which is a borate-system red phosphor and a second phosphor of Y(V, P)O4:Eu which is a phos-vana system red phosphor.
