20100181717 | SHEET-CONVEYING DEVICE AND IMAGE-FORMING APPARATUS INCLUDING THE SAME - A sheet-conveying device designed to feed a sheet fed thereto through a fixing device toward a discharge unit includes first and second conveyance guides facing each other so as to define a sheet conveyance path and each having a conveying member designed to feed the sheet. The first conveyance guide includes a blower opening facing the sheet conveyance path for blowing air onto the sheet conveyance path, an exhaust opening provided on a downstream side in a sheet feeding direction with respect to the blower opening for removing air that has been blown onto the sheet conveyance path and discharging it outside the device. | 07-22-2010 |
20110236102 | SHEET CURL CORRECTION APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - The present invention includes a supporting member that supports a first roller and a second roller, a first actuator that rotates the supporting member, a first gear that is connected to an end of second roller on the first actuator side, a second gear that is threadably engaged with the first gear, a third gear that rotates coaxially with the second gear, an input gear that threadably engages with the third gear, and a second actuator that transmits a rotational force to the input gear. The third rotation shaft extends in parallel in a first plane that includes the leading edge and the trailing edge of the nip, the first actuator rotates the supporting member between a first position at which the sheet is received from the leading edge of the nip and a second position at which the sheet is received from the trailing edge of the nip. | 09-29-2011 |
20140314448 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - A copier includes a developing unit, a toner container, a first movable unit, and a second movable unit. The first movable unit carries the developing unit and is movable between a close position where a developing roller of the developing unit is located close to a photosensitive drum and a distant position where the developing roller is located away from the photosensitive drum. The second movable unit carries the toner container and is configured to drag the first movable unit from the close position to the distant position. The copier is configured so that while the second movable unit is located at a standby position for the drag, a clearance is formed between the first and second movable units to avoid physical contact between the first and second movable units. | 10-23-2014 |
20140376981 | SHEET CURL CORRECTION APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - The present invention includes a supporting member that supports a first roller and a second roller, a first actuator that rotates the supporting member, a first gear that is connected to an end of second roller on the first actuator side, a second gear that is threadably engaged with the first gear, a third gear that rotates coaxially with the second gear, an input gear that threadably engages with the third gear, and a second actuator that transmits a rotational force to the input gear. The third rotation shaft extends in parallel in a first plane that includes the leading edge and the trailing edge of the nip, the first actuator rotates the supporting member between a first position at which the sheet is received from the leading edge of the nip and a second position at which the sheet is received from the trailing edge of the nip. | 12-25-2014 |
20140376982 | SHEET CURL CORRECTION APPARATUS AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - The present invention includes a supporting member that supports a first roller and a second roller, a first actuator that rotates the supporting member, a first gear that is connected to an end of second roller on the first actuator side, a second gear that is threadably engaged with the first gear, a third gear that rotates coaxially with the second gear, an input gear that threadably engages with the third gear, and a second actuator that transmits a rotational force to the input gear. The third rotation shaft extends in parallel in a first plane that includes the leading edge and the trailing edge of the nip, the first actuator rotates the supporting member between a first position at which the sheet is received from the leading edge of the nip and a second position at which the sheet is received from the trailing edge of the nip. | 12-25-2014 |
20160033923 | LOW PROFILE LIGHT SCANNING DEVICE AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS THEREWITH - A light scanning device includes a housing, a plurality of permeable members, a plurality of cleaning members, a plurality of cleaning holders, a linear member, and a driving unit. The plurality of permeable members close the respective plurality of the emission ports. The plurality of cleaning holders extend over the plurality of the permeable members adjacent to one another. The plurality of the cleaning holders each have a holding unit that holds at least the two cleaning members. The linear member is connected to the plurality of the cleaning holders. The driving unit causes the linear member to run circularly. The cleaning members each slide on the corresponding permeable member in association with the linear member running circularly. The cleaning holders each connected to the linear member at a center of the holding unit in an extending direction of the holding unit. | 02-04-2016 |

20150347032 | DRAM HAVING SDRAM INTERFACE AND FLASH MEMORY CONSOLIDATED MEMORY MODULE - In methods connecting a memory module configured from DRAM, which is high-speed memory, and a memory module configured from flash memory which is slower than DRAM but is high-capacity memory, to a CPU memory bus, in the case of sequential reading, the busy rate of the CPU memory bus increases, and performance degradation occurs easily. In the present invention, an information processing device has a CPU, a CPU memory bus, and a primary storage device. The primary storage device has a first memory module and a second memory module. The first memory module has high-speed memory. The second memory module has memory having the same memory interface as that of the high-speed memory, high-capacity memory having a different memory interface from that of the high-speed memory, and a controller that controls same. The first memory module and second memory module are caused to be accessed by the memory interface of the high-speed memory. | 12-03-2015 |
20150355846 | DRAM with SDRAM Interface, and Hybrid Flash Memory Module - When DRAMs that are high-speed memories and flash memories that are lower in speed but can be larger in capacity than the DRAM are to be mounted on a DIMM, what matters in maximizing CPU memory bus throughput is the arrangement of the mounted components. The present disclosure provides a memory module (DIMM) that includes memory controllers arranged on the module surface closer to a socket terminal and DRAMs serving as high-speed memories arranged on the back surface. Nonvolatile memories as large-capacity memories are arranged on the side farther from the socket terminal. | 12-10-2015 |
