Patent number: 7867593Abstract: A roll sheet has a release paper as a base sheet. A recording paper is attached to the release paper via an adhesive layer so that the recording paper can be peeled off from the release paper. First and second peel-away areas are formed on both side edges of the roll sheet in the widthwise direction thereof by peeling off both widthwise edges of the recording paper from the release paper to allow the release paper to be exposed at the both side edges of the roll sheet. Sensor marks are printed on the release paper as being entirely shifted from the peel-away areas. This ensures that the roll sheet has a uniform thickness over the entire area of each sensor mark, thereby ensuring that each sensor mark has uniformities in its reflectivity and transmittance with respect to incident light.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2005Date of Patent: January 11, 2011Assignee: Brother Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Terumasa Hoshino, Yasunori Nakamura, Haruki Matsumoto, Tsutomu Kato

Patent number: 7793696Abstract: The disclosure provides a roll sheet holder for producing labels which can be easily put on a slim stick-type member used in foods without being wound on and adhered to the stick-type member, and be completely removed from the stick-type member. The roll sheet is made of a continuous thermal sheet having self-coloring property having no adhesive layer on its back side, and the like, and wound on a roll sheet holder with a back face facing outward. A plurality of encoder marks are provided on an edge of the back face of the roll sheet in a width direction, with predetermined pitch size in a feeding direction. The predetermined pitch size of the encoder marks is arranged to be equal to a length between cutting lines along which the printed roll sheet is cut. Behind the encoder marks in the feeding direction, a dog-leg shaped slits, projecting backward in the feeding direction are made in each substantially center between the cutting lines.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2006Date of Patent: September 14, 2010Assignee: Brother Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Haruki Matsumoto, Yasunori Nakamura, Terumasa Hoshino, Hiroshi Takami

Patent number: 7677823Abstract: A rolled-print-medium holder device includes an axial member, a holding member, an outer fitting portion, an inner fitting portion, and a weld portion. The holding member is fixed to at least one of both axial ends of the axial member and holds both sides of a rolled print medium. The outer fitting portion is provided at either one of the axial member and the holding member. The outer fitting portion has an inner peripheral surface. The inner fitting portion is provided at the other one of the axial member and the holding member. The inner fitting portion has an outer peripheral surface. The inner fitting portion is fitted into the outer fitting portion. The weld portion is provided at at least one of the inner fitting portion and the outer fitting portion. The weld portion at least fixes the outer peripheral surface to the inner peripheral surface by ultrasonic welding.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2005Date of Patent: March 16, 2010Assignee: Brother Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Terumasa Hoshino, Yasunori Nakamura, Tsutomu Kato, Haruki Matsumoto, Yoshihito Nonomura

Patent number: 7597315Abstract: A sheet package to be set in a sheet storage unit of a printer includes a stack of sheets and a package member covering the stack of sheets. The sheets are supplied from the sheet package to the printer along a sheet feed direction. The package member has a side part being in parallel with the sheet feed direction and having an edge at its front in the sheet feed direction. The side part is structured so that a projecting part of the sheet storage unit secures the position of the package member by contacting the front edge of the side part and the side edge of the stack of sheets when the package member is placed in the sheet storage unit relative to the sheet feed direction.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2003Date of Patent: October 6, 2009Assignee: Brother Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Minoru Yamamoto, Terumasa Hoshino, Motoaki Yamanashi

Patent number: 7559713Abstract: In a label printer, a top cover made of transparent resin is attached to a housing at a rear upper edge to cover a roll sheet holder storage part and to be freely opened and closed. A roll sheet of a roll sheet holder removably mounted in the roll sheet holder storage part is visible through the transparent resinous top cover. The roll sheet is provided with a plurality of medium information marks by printing. The medium information marks are visible through the top cover.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2007Date of Patent: July 14, 2009Assignee: Brother Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Kiyoshi Sugimoto, Keiji Seo, Atsushi Kasugai, Akira Sago, Terumasa Hoshino, Haruki Matsumoto

Publication number: 20070126172Abstract: An edge of a first side board on a downstream side in a sheet feed direction brought into contact with an end face of a regulating member when the first side board is forced to move to the downstream side in the sheet feed direction. Thus, a base board connecting with the first side board is prevented from moving to the downstream side in the sheet feed direction. As a result, the package member which can be prevented from getting jammed in the sheet feed path during the sheet feed operation of a printer when the package member is stored in the printer regardless of the presence or absence of sheets therein can be provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2006Publication date: June 7, 2007Applicant: BROTHER KOGYO KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Yasunori Nakamura, Terumasa Hoshino, Haruki Matsumoto, Yoshikatsu Suito
