20100284844 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING COMPRESSOR SLIDER, AND COMPRESSOR - A method for manufacturing a compressor slider includes a slider preform manufacturing step, a resin coating step, and a machining step. In the slider preform manufacturing step, an iron slider preform in which at least one property selected from the tensile strength and the tensile modulus of elasticity is greater than that of flake graphite cast iron is manufactured using a prescribed mold. In the resin coating step, the slider preform is not machined, but the resin coating layer is formed on all or a part of the slider preform. In the machining step, only the resin coating layer is machined, and a completed slider is obtained. | 11-11-2010 |

20110142506 | FIXING DEVICE, IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR EVALUATING FIXING DEVICE - A fixing device includes a fixing roller and a pressure roller. The fixing roller and the pressure roller each have an elastic layer formed between a core bar and a release layer, which release layer serves as a surface of the fixing roller and the pressure roller. The pressure roller has a lower Asker-C hardness than that of the fixing roller, and has a greater micro rubber roller than that of the fixing roller. This prevents the surface of the pressure roller from deteriorating in a short period of time. | 06-16-2011 |
