Publication number: 20240094967Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a controller configured to provide a mobile input function that enables the image forming apparatus to accept input operations from a mobile terminal via a network interface. After starting to provide the mobile input function, the controller sends display data to the mobile terminal via the network interface, thereby causing the mobile terminal to display an operation screen for operating the image forming apparatus from the mobile terminal. The controller displays a standby screen including a particular operable object on a touch panel when the mobile input function is not provided. When the particular operable object is operated, the controller switches the standby screen to a local operation screen. In response to accepting an operation on the local operation screen, the controller performs a process according to what kind of operation has been accepted on the local operation screen.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 29, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Shun TAKEUCHI, Kosuke MORI, Yuichiro SAKURAGI, Satoshi TANIMOTO

Patent number: 11877670Abstract: Wearable systems to partially support the weight of a human user engaged in task performance in a crouched position at or near ground level are presented herein. In one aspect, the wearable systems employ passive mechanisms and the configuration of the support mechanisms is changed by movements of the body of the human user while transitioning from a standing position to a crouched position, and vice-versa. In a further aspect, each passive lower body support assembly includes an auxiliary body support structure to enhance the support of the human user in a crouched position. In another further aspect, each auxiliary body support structure is deployed in coordination with the movement of the seat support structure that supports the human user. In some embodiments, one or more body support structures are constructed from an elastic material that conforms to the ground surface when loaded by the weight of the human user.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2020Date of Patent: January 23, 2024Assignees: Empower Robotics Corporation, Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Kosuke Takeuchi, Kazumasa Shudo, Juyoung Kim, Sheng Liu, Haruhiko Harry Asada

Patent number: 11480893Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an image carrier, an exposure device to expose the image carrier to form an electrostatic latent image on the image carrier, a conductive member, and a developing device having a rotatable developing roller and a rotatable toner supply roller.

Patent number: 11458061Abstract: Methods and system to partially support the weight of a human user engaged in task performance at ground level are presented herein. An upper body support system includes multiple degrees of freedom to adapt the physical geometry of the support system to meet the demands of the task at hand. Each degree of freedom of the upper body support system is passively controlled by the human user from a convenient user interface. In some embodiments, each end-effector of the support system is positioned and fixed in three degrees of freedom over a relatively large workspace by manually controlling the brake torque of two rotational joints and the state of a locking mechanism of a linear joint. In another aspect, an end-effector is removeably attached to the support system with a quick-change coupler. In some embodiments, a swivel joint mechanism compensates for misalignment with the work environment.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2020Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: Empower Robotics CorporationInventors: John W.
