A binding apparatus includes: an accumulating unit where a plurality of sheets having an area that serves as a binding margin is to be stacked as a sheet bundle, in which toner is fixed onto all of, or a part of, the area; a pressure unit that sandwiches the binding margin of the sheet bundle stacked on the accumulating unit therebetween and applies a pressure to the binding margin; and a heating unit that heats the toner on the binding margin that is receiving the pressure applied by the pressure unit. The pressure unit is configured to apply the pressure to the binding margin while forming a plurality of grooves and ridges in the binding margin in a direction in which the pressure is applied.

A moving-member detecting device includes an image acquiring unit and a speed calculating unit. The image acquiring unit includes a light source configured to emit a light beam to a detecting position of a moving member; an area sensor configured to acquire image data of a one- or two-dimensional image; and an area-sensor control unit configured to acquire the image data. The image acquiring unit is configured to acquire pieces of image data of the moving member at first and second positions, respectively, in a moving direction of the moving member so as to acquire the piece of position image data for the second position when the moving member is at the second position after acquiring the piece of image data for the first position. The speed calculating unit is configured to calculate a moving speed of the moving member from the pieces of image data.

An image forming apparatus includes a rotatable image carrier that carries a toner image having a length corresponding to at least a circumferential length of the carrier; an image density detector that detects a density of the image; a potential detector that detects, over at least the circumferential length, a surface potential of the carrier before toner adheres thereto; a first image forming device that adjusts the density with a first factor, and forms an image based on a first condition of the first factor; a second image forming device that adjusts the density with a second factor, and forms an image based on a second condition of the second factor; a first determining device that determines the first condition based on uneven density; and a second determining device that determines the second condition based on uneven density and a potential distribution of the surface potential.
摘要:
A method includes acquiring starting position information of moving bodies; acquiring destination position information of movement destinations; acquiring path information indicating paths on which the moving bodies can move; calculating, for each moving body, a minimum movement amount required for the moving body to move on a path from the starting position to each movement destination, based on the starting position information, the destination position information, and the path information; allocating a movement destination not allocated to any moving body to a moving body that has a minimum movement amount being the smallest of the minimum movement amounts and that has no allocation of any movement destination; further allocating, when there is a movement destination not allocated to the moving body on a movement route, the not-allocated movement destination to the allocated moving body; and determining movement routes of the moving bodies based on the allocation.
