Patent number: 11927910Abstract: A cartridge includes a photosensitive drum supported by a frame, a coupling positioned at an end of the photosensitive drum, with the coupling being configured to receive a driving force for rotating the photosensitive drum. A lever is movably supported by a part of the frame at a position that is adjacent to the end of the photosensitive drum, with the lever being movable between a first position and a second position. As viewed along the axis of the photosensitive drum, an end of the lever is a first distance from the axis of the photosensitive drum when the lever is in the first position, and the end of the lever is a second distance from the axis of the photosensitive drum when the lever is in the second position, with the second distance being greater than the first distance.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2023Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Ryuta Murakami, Daisuke Makiguchi, Goshi Ozaki, Daisuke Abe, Tachio Kawai

Publication number: 20230406649Abstract: A workpiece conveyance device includes: a plurality of holding heads that include a holding part and a vacuum pump; and a conveyance track. The vacuum pump includes a pump unit and a shaft part that is rotated to activate the pump unit. The shaft part includes a first magnet. The conveyance track includes a second magnet extending in a conveyance direction of the holding head and being arranged to generate a magnetic force between the second magnet and the first magnet. By alternately switching a magnetic pole of a portion in the second magnet applying a magnetic force to the first magnet, the shaft part is rotated, which causes the pump unit to generate a holding force.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2021Publication date: December 21, 2023Inventors: Ryuta ABE, Tatsuya MASADA, Masahide MARUYAMA
