摘要:
An object of the invention is to provide an image forming apparatus in which a unit can be attached to the apparatus body in a status where a correct positional correlation between a photoconductive drum and each of other process devices mounted on a unit is maintained. A photoconductive drum is positioned within a copier body by a rotating drive shaft, and the other process devices mounted on a process unit are positioned within a copier body by a boss and a locking member. The boss positions the rotating drive shaft within the copier body. Since the locking member is fitted onto a front-side end of the rotation drive shaft, the locking member is positioned within the copier body by the rotating drive shaft. The other process devices mounted on the process unit are positioned within the copier body by the rotating drive shaft via the boss and the locking member. Accordingly, the photoconductive drum and each of the other process devices, which should maintain a predetermined positional correlation with each other within the copier body, are both positioned within the copier body by the rotating drive shaft.

In a space portion where all light-scanning units are housed, an air-exhausting fan is provided in the vicinity of the light-scanning unit nearest to the thermally fixing unit, and an air hole is formed at a position farthest from the thermally fixing unit. Additionally a temperature sensor is mounted on the light-scanning unit nearest to the thermally fixing unit. Rotation speed of the air-exhausting fan is controlled so that the temperature detected by the sensor does not exceed a predetermined temperature limit.

A medical needle device includes a hub having an injection needle fixed at a top end thereof, and a substantially cylindrical sheath which is fit on the hub and having a pair of wings mounted on both sides thereof. The pair of wings are bent along the both sides of the sheath, overlapped and held together at a time of puncturing so that an inner peripheral surface of the sheath strongly presses an outer peripheral surface of the hub, thereby preventing movement of the hub caused by transfer of the hub relative to the sheath both in a rotational direction and a longitudinal direction. sheath has a plurality of protrusions provided on the inner peripheral surface thereof in a circumferential direction, the protrusions being spaced out from each other; and the outer peripheral surface of the hub abuts the protrusions.

An object of the present invention is to provide an electric booster and a manufacturing method thereof in which it becomes possible to conduct a test of an electric motor alone without disassembling a motor casing, thereby facilitating the manufacturing process and reducing manufacturing cost. In an electric booster which drives an electric motor 40 in response to a movement of an input member 9 moving together with a brake pedal B, and generates a brake hydraulic pressure in a master cylinder 10 through a ball screw mechanism 50, the electric motor 40 comprises a stator 41 including a coil therein, a rotor 42 which rotates by applying current to the stator 41, and an annular motor casing 2 containing the stator 41 and the rotor 42. The ball screw mechanism 50 is fittedly disposed in the rotor 42. An opening 3b on one axial end side of the motor casing 2 has a larger diameter than an outer diameter of the ball screw mechanism 50. In manufacturing, after the electric motor 40 alone is tested, the ball screw mechanism 50 is inserted through the opening 3b and installed without the need of disassembling the motor casing 2.

An image forming apparatus of the present invention includes a photoreceptor drum on which a toner image is formed, a transfer drum for transferring the toner image formed to transfer paper by bringing the transfer paper into contact with the photoreceptor drum, and a pair of register rollers for supplying the transfer paper to the transfer drum at a predetermined time and for curling the transfer paper in an arc. The register rollers include first and second rollers pressed against each other, the first roller being a predetermined hardness and the second roller being a hardness larger than the first roller. The transfer drum is disposed on the same side as the second roller with respect to an imaginary tangent line touching the surface of the second roller at one end of a contact section between the first and second rollers. The image forming apparatus also includes transporting means for supplying the transfer paper to the register rollers so that a front edge of the transfer paper comes into contact with the second roller, temporarily stops, and then continues to the transfer drum. The image forming apparatus also includes a means for changing the pressure that the register rollers are pressed together. Paper type, quality, thickness, and size are detected and the pressure is adjusted accordingly. The means for changing pressure includes a resilient member for the pressing the second roller against the first, and a changing member for changing the amount of deformation of the resilient member.
