Abstract: The weight of a body-to-be-conveyed constituting a conveying device is reduced, and the friction force between the sliding surface of the body-to-be-conveyed and the conveyance path is reduced. A body-to-be-conveyed that is a component of a conveying device that uses electromagnetic force as thrust and can move in a horizontal direction includes a mover in which a bottom surface is arranged so that a predetermined gap is formed in a vertical direction with respect to the sliding surface thereof, in which the mover includes a permanent magnet and a cover, a gap facing surface of the permanent magnet facing the gap includes one magnetic pole, the cover is installed on a side of the permanent magnet opposite from the gap facing surface in the vertical direction, the horizontal outermost diameter of the cover is larger than the horizontal outermost diameter of the permanent magnet, and the cover is formed of a flat plate.

Abstract: The present invention provides a transport device and a specimen analysis system including the transport device that reduce the pulsation of thrust for moving an object to be transported, reduce vibration of the object to be transported during transport, and realize stable transport. The transport device of the present invention includes a first electromagnet unit including a first tooth made of a magnetic body, a first core connected to the first tooth and made of a magnetic body, and a first winding formed around the first core; a second electromagnet unit including a second tooth installed adjacent to the first electromagnet unit and made of a magnetic body, a second core connected to the second tooth and made of a magnetic body, a second winding formed around the second core; and a magnetic coupling unit made of a magnetic body between the first tooth of the first electromagnet unit and the second tooth of the second electromagnet unit.

Abstract: A liquid discharge head includes: a housing; a nozzle plate attached to the housing, the nozzle plate having a nozzle from which a liquid is to be discharged; a valve in the housing, the valve configured to move in an opening and closing direction and openably close the nozzle; a driver having one end coupled to the valve in the opening and closing direction, the driver configured to drive the valve; and a fixing member fixed to the housing and coupled to another end of the driver in the opening and closing direction. The driver has a first linear expansion coefficient, each of the valve and the fixing member has a second linear expansion coefficient, and the first linear expansion coefficient and the second linear expansion coefficient are reversed in positivity and negativity.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a scanner to read an image on an original and an electric box disposed below the scanner and extended horizontally with respect to the scanner. The electric box includes an electric cabinet having a box shape and an electrical device disposed inside the electric cabinet.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an outer cover, an interior device spaced apart from the outer cover, and an accommodating recess interposed between the outer cover and the interior device. The accommodating recess accommodates an arbitrary part of the image forming apparatus.

Abstract: A cooling device, which is included in an image forming apparatus, includes a cooling device including an air blower, an airflow divider, an air flowing passage, and an air exhaust opening. The air blower blows air toward a cooling target device. The airflow divider divides the air exhausted from the air blower into at least two airflows such that an air flowing direction of the air is changed to a direction perpendicular to an air exhausting direction of the air. The at least two airflows pass through the air flowing passage. A wall of the air flowing passage is disposed facing the cooling target device. The air exhaust opening is disposed on the wall of the air flowing passage to cause the air to pass through toward the cooling target device disposed in a direction intersecting the air flowing direction in the air flowing passage.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an electric wire and an electric box. The electric box extends substantially horizontally and includes a wire connector coupled to the electric wire. A body face exposes the wire connector. An outer cover covers the body face. The outer cover includes a slot and a wire accommodator. The slot is disposed opposite the wire connector to expose the wire connector to an outside of the image forming apparatus. The wire accommodator accommodates the electric wire.
