Patent EP-1577715-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NAMI YASUO
IPC: G03G15/20
Filed: 2004-12-22
Abstract: A heating apparatus (3,114) of an electromagnetic
induction heating type includes a coil (6) and a roller (1)
which generates heat by the action of magnetic flux
generated from the coil. A recording material (P) is
heated by the roller. The heating apparatus further
includes a movable magnetic flux decreasing member (8) for
decreasing magnetic flux, generated from the coil,
acting on the roller. In the heating apparatus, a
shutter is moved toward an effective position at which
a temperature in a non-conveyance area is lowered when
a recording material having a size lower than a
maximum conveyable size is conveyed, and is moved away
from the effective position depending on the
temperature in the non-conveyance area as measured by a thermistor (12), irrespective
of the size of the recording material to be conveyed.
Patent EP-1447106-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NEMOTO SHIGERU
IPC: A61M5/00
Filed: 2001-02-09
Abstract: Since this syringe has projections (33) provided on the
rear surface of a flange (32) of a syringe barrel (31), when it is
inserted in an insertion groove (14) of a cylinder holder (13), the
tips of projections are compressed and the flange is fixed.
Consequently, even when a solution having high viscosity is
injected at higher pressure, breakage does not occur
easily. Further, pressure-receiving area may also be
increased by providing a guide defining mounting direction
of a syringe, alternatively, a positioning mechanism may be
provided so as to obtain mounting at a correct position, or
the surface of a flange may be roughened.

Abstract: An ink jet head cleaning apparatus of the present invention
comprises a flexible contact member (10) and a driving unit (11). The
flexible contact member is mounted in a position where its top
end comes into contact with a nozzle face (6) of an ink jet head
having the nozzle face provided with outlets for discharging
ink in a form of droplets, and is movable along the nozzle face.
On the other hand, the driving unit functions to correlatively
move the ink jet head and the contact member. The top end (9) of
the contact member (10) is divided into a plurality of sections in
a direction orthogonal to the direction of its movement. Thus,
a foreign substance holding on the nozzle face can be removed
completely from the nozzle face by means of the wipe blade.
Furthermore, the growth of the foreign substance can be
restrained. It is therefore possible to prevent deterioration
of ink discharge stability and straight discharge of ink.

Abstract: In a fluid system for a gas turbine engine, oil is
supplied from an oil tank (10) by a constant displacement
pump (12) to lubricate engine components (18). The oil is
supplied to the components (18) via a heat exchanger (16)
in which oil and fuel are placed in direct heat exchange
relationship. 
     The flow of oil to the components (18) is controlled
by recirculating a proportion of the oil flow through a
bypass (20). The bypass (20) regulates the flow of oil to
the components (18) so that the amount of heat transferred
to the fuel in the heat exchanger (16) is controlled. At
low engine powers a greater proportion of the oil flows
through the bypass (20) to reduce the oil flow to the
components (18). This reduces the heat transferred to the
fuel in the heat exchanger (16) and so prevents overheating
of the fuel.

Abstract: The invention relates to a computer device for managing documents in multi-user mode, comprising a document data processing tool (40), a document data display manager (50), and a document user rights manager (70). The processing tool (40) comprises an object model with a plurality of classes (42), consisting of a content pointer, a level indicator, an access method, a validation method, and a validation indicator, and a document operator (41) for creating and maintaining a document in the form of a series of object model class instances. The display manager (50) enables a tree diagram to be displayed in a joint manner, defined according to level indicators and display/input zones with tabs, corresponding to the contents of the class instances existing in the tree diagram. The processing tool only authorizes access to a document according to the access rights of the user thus concerned, and, in the event of access, only authorizes validation of a zone according to validation rights. The display manager (50) enables the display of a zone and a corresponding node in the tree diagram to be modified jointly according to the validation state of the zone and, judging by the level indicators, to cause a validated state to rise to a higher level if all of the nodes of one level are validated. When the head of the tree diagram is validated, the processing tool authorizes the signature of the entire document by a user having corresponding signature rights.
