摘要:
The terminal device is equipped with a location judgment database which stores setting data indicating the relationships between the location of the self device and the corresponding object to be presented to the user. On the basis of the location detection data obtained by detecting the location of the self device by receiving range signals transmitted by a plurality of GPS satellites and the setting data stored in the location judgment database, corresponding objects are selected from a plurality of objects received and decoded and they are synthesized and presented as they are output to the display or the speaker. Thus, an optimal object presentation can be achieved in accordance with the status of the terminal device.

An image forming apparatus includes a cylindrical or annular fixing member, an outer surface of which is brought into pressure contact with a conveyed sheet to fix an image onto the sheet; and a heating source for heating the fixing member to a specified target temperature. The fixing member includes a cylindrical or annular base material, a rubber layer with elasticity, and an outer layer for aiding release of the sheet. An end portion of the rubber layer and an end portion of the outer layer are each positioned inner than an end portion of the base material with respect to a width direction perpendicular to a circumferential direction on the base material. A filter member capable of trapping ultra fine particles generated from the rubber layer is provided on the base material in a position facing the end portion of the rubber layer along the circumferential direction.

An image forming apparatus includes a fixing member for fixing an image onto a sheet in pressure contact with an outer surface thereof; and a heating source for heating the fixing member. A duct is provided in a position facing the fixing member with respect to a width direction perpendicular to a circumferential direction of the fixing member and which has an inlet for taking in fine particles generated from the fixing member. A filter member is provided inside the duct and which can trap the fine particles which flow through the duct. An exhaust fan is provided in the duct upstream or downstream from the filter member for generating an air flow going from the inlet to an outlet of the duct. A control section controls the operation of the exhaust fan according to initial burst conditions under which the fine particles are emitted from the fixing member.

摘要:
When a sheet is transported as passed through a first roller pair equipped with a torque limiter and through a second roller pair, a loop formed in the sheet between the first roller pair and the second roller pair is cleared by a method wherein the amount of sheet loop is decreased by driving the second roller pair and disabling the first roller pair and wherein at the time when the sheet loop is decreased to a predetermined amount, a velocity of clearing the loop is lowered by rotating the first roller pair at a lower peripheral velocity than that of the second roller pair.

It is intended to provide an image forming apparatus capable of securing rotation transmission accuracy among input/output axes without giving stress to a holding portion despite shaft misalignment and without using material of high strength. A color printer 1 comprises a main body 2 and an image forming unit 30 removable from the main body 2. The main body 2 includes a gear 43 for receiving rotary driving force to the image forming unit 30 and a joint 45 and the image forming unit 30 has a coupling 36 for receiving rotary driving force from the main body 2. Furthermore, a joint holder section 43a for the gear 43 and the coupling 36 has a contact hole 47, and contact hole 36a, respectively and both ends of the joint 45 are inserted in those holes. The contact holes 47 and 36a are in not-twisted triangle pole shape and the joint 45 is in twisted triangle pole shape.

Provided is a non-specific reaction inhibitor for achieving the accurate detection and quantitation of a trace component (a target substance) contained in a sample, in an immunoassay, by simply and effectively inhibiting a non-specific reaction associated with the measurement. The non-specific reaction inhibitor comprises a substance of the formula I: wherein R1 and R2 together form a double bond between carbons, to which they are respectively bonded directly, or R1 is a hydrogen atom and R2 is a group formed by removing H from an SH-group-containing compound, B is a support, and L is a spacer arm portion.

A fusing apparatus allows a recording member to pass through between a heat member and a pressure member, to transport and heat the recording member, and thereby fuses a toner image on the recording member. The heat member has a release layer, a low emissivity member, and an elastic layer. The release layer is formed on an outermost layer of the heat member. The low emissivity member is provided between the heat source and the release layer so as to abut on the release layer, and is made of a material with a lower emissivity than a material forming the release layer. The elastic layer is provided between the heat source and the low emissivity member. The release layer has infrared transmission properties at wavelengths of 2 to 10 μm.
