  • Patent number: 11990699
    Abstract: A connector includes a plurality of inner terminals and an outer terminal. The plurality of inner terminals are arrayed with intervals therebetween in a direction. The plurality of inner terminals are terminals that are connected to a ground potential. The outer terminal is disposed around the group of the plurality of arrayed inner terminals and are connected to a ground potential. The outer terminal includes side wall members that are shaped so as to extend in the direction and be parallel to the plurality of inner terminals. The inner terminals include connection parts that are connected to the side wall members.

  • Publication number: 20240142891
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an image carrying member, a charging device, an exposure device, a developing device, a development voltage power supply, and a control section. The developing device includes a development container which contains a non-magnetic one-component developer and a developer carrying member which includes a rotary shaft and a roller portion stacked on the outer circumferential surface of the rotary shaft, and the resistance value of the roller portion is 9 to 11 [Log ?], and when the amount of toner conveyed on the developer carrying member is Md [g/m2], the amount of toner adhered on the image carrying member in a solid image is Mp [g/m2], the peripheral speed of the developer carrying member and the image carrying member are Sd [mm/sec] and Sp [mm/sec], 0.8×Sd/Sp<Mp/Md and 0.8?Sd/Sp?1.2 are satisfied.

  • Patent number: 8447498
    Abstract: Even when an engine is started in various combustion states, an excessive increase in engine speed at the start of the engine is suppressed without an influence of the combustion states and with an excellent responsiveness. Ignition timing (or a combustion injection amount) at the start of an internal combustion engine is corrected in accordance with a crank angle cycle ratio which is a ratio of a combustion period crank angle cycle and a reference crank angle cycle.

  • Patent number: 6463905
    Abstract: An engine working machine formed by storing a radiator and a cooling fan, for leading heat exchange air for the radiator, in a package together with an engine and a working machine. Wherein a storage space for the engine and working machine is separate from a ventilating port, which communicates with a space between the radiator and the cooling fan. The space is shielded by partitions from an air leading space to which air is led after being passed through the radiator by the cooling fan. A cooling air leading port for externally cooling the engine and the working machine is formed in a part of the package so that outside air led from the cooling air leading port passes the storing space and is exhausted from the ventilating port to the air leading space, to which air is led after having passed through the radiator.
