  • Publication number: 20240131858
    Abstract: A printing apparatus includes a discharge unit and a tray. The discharge unit discharges a recording medium printed by a print unit in a first direction. The tray includes a supporting surface that supports the recording medium discharged from the discharge unit, a protruding portion that forms part of the supporting surface and that protrudes in a second direction intersecting the first direction, and a convex portion that is provided on the supporting surface and that protrudes upward from the supporting surface. The convex portion is formed on an inner side of the protruding portion in the second direction and overlaps the protruding portion in the first direction.

  • Patent number: 11611087
    Abstract: In a method of producing a resin frame member for a fuel cell, a processing die is used. The method includes a processing step of moving an upper die toward a lower die to thereby form an inclined surface on each of side parts of a resin film. In the processing step, shearing is performed while maintaining a predetermined clearance between the lower processing section and the upper processing section and in a state where each of the side parts is at least partially positioned at a cutout so that each of the side parts is inclined downward toward the inside. The cutout is formed by cutting off an edge part of a placement surface that is positioned on the lower processing section side.

  • Publication number: 20230029136
    Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a housing configured to house a recording portion recording an image on a sheet and to have a side including an opening through which the sheet passes, a tray configured to rotate about a rotation shaft, relative to the housing, between a closed position at a first angle for closing the opening and an open position at a second angle for loading the sheet, and an urging mechanism configured to urge the tray toward the closed position when an angle about the rotation shaft of the tray is between the first angle and a third angle and to urge the tray toward the open position when an angle about the rotation shaft of the tray is between the third angle and the second angle. The third angle is an angle between the first angle and the second angle.

  • Patent number: 11502312
    Abstract: A resin frame member is produced by using a method of producing a resin frame member for a fuel cell. An inner peripheral end of the resin frame member includes an inclined surface formed over the entire periphery thereof. The inclined surface is inclined inward from one surface of the resin frame member toward the other surface of the resin frame member. The width of the inclined surface is gradually reduced from the center toward both ends of each side part of the inner peripheral end in a direction in which the side part of the inner peripheral end extends.

  • Publication number: 20220280107
    Abstract: An analysis system and method are provided for analyzing physical information and acquiring biological data of a user from a biological data acquisition sensor. The exemplary analysis system includes a circadian rhythm calculator that calculates an average circadian rhythm of the user; an autonomic nerve analyzer that performs autonomic nerve analysis based on a variation in the biological data; and a physical information analyzer that weights an autonomic nerve analysis result analyzed by the autonomic nerve analyzer with a weighting coefficient set based on a measurement time at which the biological data of the user is acquired and a cycle of the average circadian rhythm. The physical information analyzer also estimates a change in a circadian rhythm with respect to the average circadian rhythm based on the weighted autonomic nerve analysis result.

  • Publication number: 20210280878
    Abstract: A power generation cell includes a resin frame equipped membrane electrode assembly. An inclined surface is formed on each of four side parts of the inner peripheral end of a resin frame member. The inclined surface is inclined inward from one surface of the resin frame member toward the other surface of the resin frame member. In a side part and a corner part of the inner peripheral end that are adjacent to each other, a side surface serving as a step is formed between the inclined surface and a first plane surface part at the corner part of the resin frame member.

  • Patent number: 6492503
    Abstract: There is provided a glycosaminoglycan having a backbone structure comprising a repetitive disaccharide bearing a uronic acid residue and a glucosamine residue, and having sulfate groups, wherein substantially no sulfate group bound to the hydroxyl group at the 6-position of the glucosamine residue in the backbone structure is detected as determined by a chemical disaccharide analysis method in which the glycosaminoglycan is decomposed with nitrous acid, reacted with para-nitrophenylhydrazine and analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography, and the molar % of a uronic acid residue having a sulfate group at the 2-position is not less than 45% relative to total uronic acid residues, which is calculated from a disaccharide composition obtained by an enzymatic disaccharide analysis method in which the glycosaminoglycan is digested with glycosaminoglycan-degrading enzymes and analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. The glycosaminoglycan can be used as an active ingredient of pharmaceuticals.
