Abstract: A flow field pattern for separator plates of a fuel cell system is disclosed. The separator plate is formed with a gas inlet port at a first edge, a gas outlet port at a second edge, and a plurality of gas channels at a first surface. A first guide channel is arranged at the first edge adjacent to the gas inlet port and a second guide channel is arranged at the second edge adjacent to the gas outlet port. Each of the guide channels comprises a guide section and an outlet section. A part of the guide section of the first guide channel is located opposite to the outlet section of the second guide channel. The two ends of the gas channels in a guiding zone of the separator plate are respectively connected with the gas inlet port at the first edge and the guide section of the second guide channel at the second edge. The guide section of the second guide channel is fluid communicated with the outlet section of the second guide channel, which is connected by the gas channels in a connecting zone to the guide section of the first guide channel, and through the outlet section of the first guide channel and the gas channels in an outlet zone of the separator plate to the gas outlet port at the second edge.

Abstract: A toner-conveying device (70y,71y,90y) includes a movable plate. The
movable plate is movable between a holding position such as to couple a
cap (52y) of a toner container (50y) to a nozzle (71y) when the toner
container is supported by a container holder, and a retreating position
such as not to hinder loading and unloading of the toner container in
the container holder. The movable plate is placed in the holding
position by a cam when the nozzle is coupled to the cap, and is released
and moved to the retreating position while the toner container is being
loaded or unloaded. In this structure, the cap can be properly
positioned in the conveyor device while ensuring the rigidity of a bag
of the container within a practically preferable range, without
reducing the convenience for the operator.

Abstract: An encoder includes: a detector (30); an A/D converter (32) for performing A/D conversion for a two-phase analog signal output from the detector; an error correction circuit (34) for correcting an error of the two-phase analog signal; an interpolation circuit (36) for performing interpolation from the corrected result of A/D conversion; a memory (40) for storing correction data; and a central processing unit (CPU) (42) having communication means (44). The result of A/D conversion of the two-phase analog signal is sent by the communication means (44) to an external personal computer (50). The error of sine and cosine signals from a predetermined value is detected by the personal computer (50) and is sent by the communication means (44). The encoder performs interpolation in which the error is corrected by using the received correction data. Thus, it is possible to perform signal adjustment without observing a display screen of an oscilloscope, while confirming a status of signal adjustment in a non-stepped manner. This enables optimum adjustment and confirmation to be performed, and reduces an interpolation error caused by adjustment of the encoder signal.
