A printer includes a carriage supporting a print head and movable across print paper for enabling the print head to print on the print paper, a fixed frame, a switch device mounted on one of the carriage and the fixed frame, the switch device being composed of a light transmission means and a light blocking means for blocking light passing through the light transmission means, a sensor means on the other of the carriage and the fixed frame for sensing light passing through the switch device to produce an electric signal, and a means for reading the electric signal as information indicative of printer functions in response to movement of the carriage.

Teeth-shaped portions 11b of a magnet 11 are formed in such a way that a part of the plane of projection of each of the teeth-shaped portions protrudes in a circumferential direction with respect to that of one of teeth 8b and 9b which is viewed from an axial direction of a first stator core 8 and a second stator core 9.

A rotor is formed with a partition wall interposed between a first magnetic body and a second magnetic body. Projections of the partition wall block gaps between salient poles of the first magnetic body and salient poles of the second magnetic body which are arranged at shifted positions when seen in an axial direction of a rotating shaft to shield a flow of air flowing in the axial direction. Notches are formed in parts other than the gaps to decrease a volume thereof and to reduce inertia thereof.

A solid-state image pickup device includes a plurality of effective pixels each including a photoelectric conversion element and an OB pixel that is provided outside of an area where the effective pixels are formed and obtains the same output with a dark output of the effective pixel. Each of the effective pixels includes a first signal read-out circuit formed on a semiconductor substrate. The OB pixel includes a second signal read-out circuit formed on the semiconductor substrate and a capacitor connected to an input node of the second signal read-out circuit. The second signal read-out circuit has the same configuration as the first signal read-out circuit. A capacitance value of the capacitor is a value that renders the capacitance value at the input node of the first signal read-out circuit and the capacitance value at the input node of the second signal read-out circuit to be substantially equal to each other.

摘要:
The present application provides a method for adjusting spring characteristics of a spring to desired spring characteristics. In the adjusting method of the present application, first, the spring is compressed until a “load-displacement” measurement line obtained by measuring the load applied to the spring and the displacement of the spring meets a “load-displacement” target line determined based on “load-displacement” characteristics of the spring and the desired spring characteristics (S10-S14). Next, the spring is expanded such that the load applied to the spring decreases along the “load-displacement” target line (S18).

Reverse bias voltage VM is applied to any one of self light emitting elements arranged on a light emitting panel 1 under detection mode. Current corresponding to weak current flowing to the element is supplied to a transistor Q3 by the operation of a current mirror circuit comprised of transistors Q1, Q2. The current mirror circuit is formed with the transistor Q3 as a control side current source transistor and transistors Q4 to Q7 as a controlled side current source transistor. The sizes of the controlled side current source transistors Q4 to Q7 are set to, for example, 1:2:4:8 with respect to the control side current source transistor Q3 so as to construct current amplifying means. Current value amplified by a current comparison type comparator 7 is compared with current value from a reference current source 8 and its output is latched by a latch circuit 9 and stored in a data register 10. If a weak current over a predetermined value flows when reverse bias voltage is applied to the self light emitting element, it is determined that a possibility that the self light emitting element turns into a light emission fault is high and notifying means is driven appropriately using data stored in the data register 10.

A disclosed network communication apparatus for performing communication via an IP network includes: a packet generation unit generating packets for call connection including facsimile communication capability and voice capability; and a communication control unit requesting a target network communication apparatus for connection using the packets for call connection upon facsimile transmission and establishing a facsimile communication channel and a voice channel to perform the facsimile transmission. Upon facsimile transmission, the communication control unit requests the target apparatus for connection using the packets for call connection. When the target apparatus rejects the connection request, the communication control unit reissues a call to the target apparatus and requests the target apparatus for connection of a voice channel to establish the voice channel, and then the communication control unit receives a request for connection of a facsimile communication channel from the target apparatus to establish the facsimile communication channel.
