Abstract: A developing device has a developer carrier, a regulating member, a regulating pole, and a magnetic pole generation member. The regulating member has a magnetic body for regulating the thickness of developer on the surface of the developer carrier. The regulating pole is arranged inside the developer carrier to face the regulating member. The magnetic pole generation member is arranged upstream of the regulating member in the developer carrier rotation direction, and has a magnet for generating, at an end portion of the regulating member, a magnetic pole of a polarity different from that of the regulating pole. The regulating member has, in its side face, a depressed portion having an inner face with an arc-shaped cross-section. The magnetic pole generation member is cylindrical, with a radius substantially equal to that of the inner face of the depressed portion, and is rotatable while staying fitted in the depressed portion.

Abstract: A partial image is cropped from a photographed image and is displayed on monitors as an image for viewing. When altering the viewing range by altering the cropping position of the partial image cropped from the photographed image, if the position of the partial image is altered as far as an end portion of the photographed image, which forms a limit to the movement of the cropping position, then a belt-shaped image (for example, a belt-shaped image formed by a red line or the like) is added to the image for viewing in the portion of the partial image that corresponds to the movement limit, and the resulting image for viewing is displayed.

Abstract: This vehicle seat device is equipped with a position detection unit which detects the movement position of a vehicle seat. The position detection unit is equipped with a forward direction counting unit and a reverse direction counting unit. The forward direction counting unit counts, in a forward direction, pulse edges during the driving of a motor and pulse edges during the time interval in which the motor current changes from a first polarity to a second polarity opposite to the first polarity due to driving of the motor being stopped. The reverse direction counting unit counts, in a reverse direction opposite to the forward direction, the pulse edges during the time interval in which the motor current changes from the second polarity to the first polarity after driving of the motor is stopped.

Abstract: A device control apparatus periodically transmits a status confirmation signal to a control source device described in a cooperation control table and receives a response signal with respect to the status confirmation signal. Device control apparatus determines whether or not a status included in the response signal matches a status described in the cooperation control table. If they match, a control destination device, an operation and a control command corresponding to the operation are specified using the cooperation control table. A configuration for transmitting a control command with respect to the control destination device is provided. Therefore, even in a case where a communication protocol and the control command are different from one another in makers of devices, it is possible to realize cooperation control.
