Abstract: A pair of cutter modules arranged so as to mesh with each other each include: a rotary shaft extending along a width direction intersecting with a conveyance direction of an object to be shredded; a plurality of divided cutter blocks arranged along a direction of the rotary shaft and assembled and fixed onto the rotary shaft, each of the cutter blocks including cutter portions with cutting blades, the cutter portions being arranged in a plurality of stages through intermediation of spacer portions; and a positioning mechanism configured to position an assembly of the cutter blocks and the rotary shaft so that the cutting blades of the cutter portions of each cutter block are arranged in an array inclined continuously with the cutting blades of the cutter portions of an adjacent cutter block.

Abstract: To efficiently prevent a decrease in measurement accuracy caused by a change in a test cartridge and an environmental temperature, provided is an automatic analysis device. The automatic analysis device includes: a constant-temperature reservoir (6) to be heated by a heating source (6a) so as to keep a liquid temperature at least in the reaction cell (11c) of the test cartridge (10) in the test stage (KT) at a constant environmental temperature set previously; constant-temperature reservoir control means (7) including a temperature detector (7a), for controlling a set temperature of the heating source (6a) of the constant-temperature reservoir (6) so that the set temperature of the heating source (6a) is higher when the internal environmental temperature is lower than a previously-determined threshold value than when the internal environmental temperature is equal to or higher than the threshold value, based on the internal environmental temperature detected by the temperature detector (7a).

Abstract: Provided is a shredder that prevents particles from jamming in a shredding mechanism at the time of shredding sheet-like objects, and maintains shredding performance. A cleaning mechanism (10) for cleaning cutter elements (4) in a pair as a shredding mechanism (3) includes: first partition members (11) arranged in a plurality of stages to cover peripheries of spacer portions (6) of the cutter elements (4) in a pair, the first partition members (11) being configured to remove particles (1a) from an inside of recessed portions (7) of the cutter elements (4) in a pair; and second partition members (12) arranged in a plurality of stages to cover peripheries of cutter portions (5) of the cutter elements (4) in a pair, the second partition members (12) being configured to close gaps through which the particles (1a) enter between the first partition members (11).

Abstract: Provided are a shredder and a trash receiving structure for a shredder, preventing the particles from being scattered to the surroundings, thereby facilitating the post-process on the particles. The trash receiving structure for a shredder includes: a shredder casing (1) having a shredding mechanism (11) and a trash container (12); a partition frame member (2) including a plurality of beams (3) assembled to each other with clearances (4) secured between the plurality of beams (3) to define a setting space for the trash container (12), the partition frame member (2) being configured such that the trash container (12) is set thereon to be insertable to and removable from the shredder casing (1); and a tray-like catching member (6) set to be insertable to and removable from a space portion between the bottom portion of the shredder casing (1) and the partition frame member (2), for catching particles.

Abstract: Provided is a shredder that prevents particles from jamming in a shredding mechanism, and shreds the sheet-like objects into such an extremely small size that the sheet-like objects cannot be reproduced. A shredding mechanism (3) includes blade drums (4, 5) in a pair, and a plurality of scraping members (6) for scraping off particles (1a) formed by shredding from an inside of recessed portions located between the cutter portions (4b, 5b) of each of the blade drums (4, 5). A control device (12) includes a determination unit (13) for determining a jam condition of the particles (1a) in the shredding mechanism (3) based on a load applied to a drive device (10) during idling of the shredding mechanism (3), which is carried out by driving the drive device (10) under a state in which the sheet-like object (1) to be shredded is not conveyed in the shredding mechanism (3).

Abstract: A laminating device is provided that can increase the rate of rise of a laminating temperature and keep the laminating temperature stable without using a temperature control system for a heat source. The laminating device for stacking and bonding a laminate film 11 coated with a hot-melt adhesive and a sheet 12 has a thermal pressure bonding and conveying device 10 that thermally pressure-bonds the laminate film 11 and the sheet 12 while stacking and conveying them.

Abstract: A bicycle comprises a front speed shifter having a plurality of speed stages, a rear speed shifter having at least three speed stages, a front speed change operation assembly 1A connected to the front speed shifter, and a rear speed change operation assembly 1B connected to the rear speed shifter. There are a plurality of designated groups of combinations for combining the speed stages of the front speed shifter with the speed stages of the rear speed shifter, and indication means 50a through 50c, 51a through 51c, and 59B for identifying each of these groups are provided for each of the front speed change operation assembly 1A and the rear speed change operation assembly 1B.

Abstract: A structure of a front fork 10 for a bicycle, which has a buffering mechanism relatively easy to mount and relatively simple in construction, comprising a pair of expandable fork blade portions 13 for the bicycle, including a pair of supporting pipes 21 extending downwardly from a crown portion 11, and a pair of sliding pipes 22 sidably fitted over the supporting pipes 21, wherein cylindrical spring structure 18 for elastically supporting each sliding pipe 22 is provided between the top end 22a of the sliding pipe 22 and the bottom end of the crown portion 11, and the cylindrical spring structure 18 is so arranged as to surround the supporting pipe 21, and wherein a stopper 30 for regulating a stroke of vertical movement of a connection member 17 is provided between the crown portion 11 and the connection member 17 connecting the pair of sliding pipes 22 in a body.
