Abstract:
According to one embodiment, an inkjet image forming apparatus includes an inkjet head configured to discharge water-based ink and form an image on a surface of a recording medium, a medium conveyance part configured to convey the recording medium, a solution imparting part that is disposed upstream of the inkjet head in a recording medium conveyance direction and uses another inkjet head to impart a solution to the surface of the recording medium on which the image is formed, and a controller configured to calculate an imparting amount of the solution to be imparted to the recording medium and control an imparting operation to the recording medium.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, an ink-jet image forming apparatus includes an ink-jet head which ejects water-based ink and form an image on a surface of a recording medium, a medium conveying unit which conveys the recording medium, a solution applying unit arranged further on an upstream side in a recording medium conveying direction than the ink-jet head and which applies water solution to a surface of the recording medium on which an image is formed, and a controller configured to calculate an application amount of the water solution to apply the water solution to the recording medium at 1% to 6% of weight of the recording medium and control an application operation to the recording medium.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a maintenance unit includes an inkjet head and a cap. The inkjet head includes plural nozzle arrays and discharges a different color of ink from each of the plural nozzle arrays. The cap includes plural protrusions at positions facing the plural nozzle arrays, includes a groove between the plural protrusions, and tightly closes the plural nozzle arrays with the plural protrusions.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, an image recording apparatus includes a printing unit and an entry angle changing mechanism. The entry angle changing mechanism is disposed further along the upstream than the printing unit in a conveying direction and changes the entry angle of the paper with an upper surface not printed and a lower surface printed, after printing on the first surface if printing on both sides is performed by the printing unit.
Abstract:
An image recording apparatus includes a conveyance unit which includes a conveyance belt and an air suction unit for sucking air through the conveyance belt to adsorb a recording medium onto the conveyance belt. A recording head ejects ink to carry out recording on the recording medium conveyed by the conveyance unit. An adsorption force adjusting unit adjusts the adsorption force for the recording medium on the conveyance belt, which occurs by sucking air, according to the size of the recording medium.
Abstract:
The present invention provides, in an image forming apparatus configured to form an image on a recording medium with ejection liquids ejected from plural heads, a technique for enabling easy positioning of the respective plural heads. The image forming apparatus includes: plural heads including a reference head having a positioned section and configured to respectively eject ejection liquids onto a recording medium; a head base having plural head positioning sections on which the plural heads are respectively mounted to be positioned, whereon a reference-head positioning section on which the reference head should be mounted in cooperation with the positioned section of the reference head performs positioning at a degree of freedom of position adjustment lower than that of the other head positioning sections; and a conveying unit configured to convey the recording medium to a position opposed to the head base.
Abstract:
The image forming apparatus includes an upstream side chamber arranged further on an upstream side with respect to an ink flowing direction than a head in a circulating path and configured to temporarily store the ejection liquid that should be supplied to the head through the circulating path, a downstream side chamber arranged further on a downstream side than the head and further on the upstream side than the upstream side chamber in the circulating path and configured to temporarily store the ejection liquid collected from the head, and a pressure-difference adjusting mechanism configured to form a first pressure state in which the pressure in the downstream side chamber is lower than the pressure in the upstream side chamber and the head and a second pressure state in which the pressure in the upstream side chamber is lower than the pressure in the downstream side chamber.

The present invention relates to a multivalent antibody comprising multiple heavy chain variable regions of antibody linked to each other via a linker comprising an amino acid sequence encoding an immunoglobulin domain or a fragment thereof.
Abstract:
A simple manufacturing method for an organic electroluminescent panel in which organic electroluminescent elements are arranged and sealed by a sealing adhesive. The electroluminescent panel has excellent sealing properties and excellent durability as a result of the organic electroluminescent elements being adhered to one another by a heat-curable adhesive. The manufacturing method is for an organic electroluminescent panel in which at least a first electrode, an organic functional layer containing a light-emitting layer, an organic electroluminescent element having a second electrode, and a sealing substrate are bonded together on a substrate by the heat-curable adhesive. The method includes forming a heat-curable adhesive layer on the sealing substrate, subjecting the heat-curable adhesive layer formed on the sealing substrate to pre-heating treatment, bonding the pre-heated heat-curable adhesive layer to the organic electroluminescent element, and subjecting the heat-curable adhesive layer to heat curing, in the given order.
