20110191987 | CLIP ATTACHMENT STRUCTURE FOR A WRITING INSTRUMENT - A clip mounting structure for a writing implement has a shaft tube, a clip mounted at the rear part of the shaft tube, and an insertion member inserted into the rear part of the shaft tube. A clip mounting section to which the rear part of the clip is fitted and aligned is formed at the rear part of the shaft tube. Mounting sections curved in the direction along the inner peripheral surface of the shaft tube are formed at opposite sides of the rear part of the clip. Fitting recesses into which the mounting sections of the clip are fitted are formed in the outer wall of the insertion member. With the mounting sections of the clip fitted in and engaged with the fitting recesses in the insertion member, the insertion member is inserted into the rear part of the shaft body to fit the rear part of the clip into the clip mounting section of the shaft tube. Thus, the insertion member is engaged in position inside the shaft tube. | 08-11-2011 |
20130134189 | KNOCK-TYPE PROPELLING CONTAINER - A knock-type propelling container includes a body storing a medium therein and having a tip end opening for allowing the medium to be propelled therefrom, a propelling member slidably arranged in the body and capable of propelling the medium toward the opening, the propelling member being provided with a forward/rearward extending prolongation portion having engaging-stop portions formed at fixed intervals in a forward/rearward direction, a knock member provided at the body so as to be reciprocably moved relative to the body, a thrusting member arranged in the body so as to be moved forward by knocking the knock member, and having an engagement portion engageable with the engaging-stop portions, and a detent member fixedly arranged in the body and engageable with the propelling member. | 05-30-2013 |
20130300693 | WRITING INSTRUMENT - A writing instrument is disclosed which includes a cylindrical barrel and an end cover having a robust structure and attached to the cylindrical barrel. The end cover comprises a cylindrical base attached to a rear end portion of the cylindrical barrel, a cover body fitted around an outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical base, a stopper ring fitted around an outer peripheral surface of at least a fitted portion between the cylindrical base and the cover body, and a cooperation structure for facilitating enhancing of holding force which is exerted on the cover body by the cylindrical base and the stopper ring. | 11-14-2013 |

20100226694 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus includes: a plurality of image forming units as defined herein; an image carrier as defined herein; a first operation controlling unit as defined herein; a second operation controlling unit as defined herein; a density detecting sensor that detects densities of the images formed on the image carrier; a measuring unit that binarizes a density detection output of the image position deviation correction patterns formed on the image carrier, from the density detecting sensor, and that measures intervals between color patterns of the image position deviation correction patterns, based on the binarized output; and a position deviation correction controlling unit that performs a position deviation correcting control of, when the intervals measured by the measuring unit and of the color patterns in the image position deviation correction patterns are deviated from a predetermined range, correcting position deviation of the toner images formed by the image forming units. | 09-09-2010 |
20100226695 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus includes a plurality of image forming units that form toner images in different color; an image carrier which carries the toner image of each color; a determination unit that determines, in relation to a size of image data instructed to print, whether or not a first area where a misregistration correcting image is formed at an end portion in a width direction of the image carrier is secured; a first control unit that controls the image forming unit; and a detection sensor that detects the misregistration correcting image formed on the image carrier by controlling of the first control unit; wherein the misregistration of the toner image formed by each image forming unit is corrected on a basis of a value detected by the detection sensor. | 09-09-2010 |
20100231934 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - In the image forming apparatus, a color shift correction execution check unit detects positions of density correction patches of respective colors according to binary signals of density detection outputs by a density sensor on the density correction patches. When distances corresponding to intervals of time from starts of image drawing of the density correction patches of the respective colors to the detection of the positions of the density correction patches of the respective colors and distances between the density correction patches of the respective colors are shifted from a value, the color shift correction execution check unit determines color shift correction processing is required to be executed, and it gives an instruction to a color shift correction control unit to execute the color shift correction processing. And the color shift correction control unit forms a color shift correction patch to execute the color shift correction processing. | 09-16-2010 |
20100238465 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus includes image forming sections that forms images of different colors, respectively, a correction image formation controlling section that forms correction images of the respective colors, a density sensor that detects a density of each of the correction images in synchronization with passage of each correction image on an image carrying body, a detecting section that detects a position and the density of each of the correction images, based on a binary signal of a density detection output of each of the correction images, a density correction controlling section that corrects and controls an image density of the color, based on the detected density of each of the correction images, and a color deviation correction controlling section that corrects and controls the color deviation, based on the detected position of each of the correction images. | 09-23-2010 |
20100239279 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A prediction table is stored in an NVM and an in-apparatus temperature is measured by a temperature sensor, a registration control adjustment based on the prediction table is carried out if an absolute value of a variation in the in-apparatus temperature is smaller than a threshold, and a registration adjusting patch is formed to actually measure a positional shift amount if the absolute value of the variation in the in-apparatus temperature is equal to or greater than the threshold. When the positional shift amount measured actually is greatly different from a value of the prediction table, the value of the prediction table is modified into the actually measured value. | 09-23-2010 |
