Abstract: Provided is a printing method for performing printing using a serial printer. In printing of a print image including a line image, the printing method includes a raster line forming step of forming each of raster lines configuring the image, by a plurality of pass operations. In the formation of each of the raster lines, when printing of a region corresponding to edge pixels of the line image by a first pass operation, which is one of the plurality of pass operations, is first printing, and printing of the region corresponding to the edge pixels by a second pass operation that is different from the first pass operation, of the plurality of pass operations, is second printing, a brightness of the printing by the second printing is higher than a brightness of the printing by the first printing.

Abstract: An impact tool (1; 1A) includes a spindle (12) rotated by a motor (10) and a hammer (70) held by the spindle. The hammer is designed to impact an anvil (14) in a rotational direction. A case (8) houses the hammer. A first bearing (78A) and a second bearing (78B) are held in the case and arranged along the axial direction. The first bearing and the second bearing directly hold the anvil in a rotatable manner.

The first control characteristics are set to achieve a rotational speed of the motor from a minimum rotational speed to a maximum rotational speed with a manipulating range of the manipulator, which is 50% or less of an effective manipulating range thereof.

Abstract: A connector (10) includes busbars (40A, 40B) including connecting portions (43) to be connected to terminals (101) of wires (100A, 100B) routed inside a case. Further, the connector (10) includes a housing (80) made of resin and including a separation wall (81) separating the inside and outside of the case. Further, the connector (10) includes a cover (90) made of resin and to be mounted on the housing (80) to cover the connecting portions (43). The busbar (40A, 40B) includes one end part provided with the connecting portion (43) and another end part on a side opposite to the one end part. The busbar (40A, 40B) is embedded in the separation wall (81) of the housing (80) and the one and the other end parts are exposed from the separation wall (81).

Abstract: An electrical device includes a battery-mount part (40) configured such that a battery used as a power supply of a power tool is mountable thereon, and a heat-generating element (54) for boiling water using electric power from the battery (B1, B2) mounted on the battery-mount part. The electrical device further includes a drip case (21) for holding a pod, in which a predetermined amount of tea leaves or coffee grounds is encased in a permeable bag-shaped element. A hot water supply (50y) supplies the water boiled by the heat-generating element (54) automatically to the drip case (21). An extraction part (21p) in the drip case (21) allows a beverage produced by the hot water that has been poured onto (injected into) the pod to downwardly flow.

Abstract: An impact tool includes a second spring with restricted free movement. The impact tool includes a motor, a spindle rotatable with a rotational force generated by the motor, a hammer supported by the spindle in a manner movable in a front-rear direction and in a rotation direction, an anvil to be struck by the hammer in the rotation direction, a first spring constantly urging the hammer forward, a second spring that urges, forward, the hammer moving backward from a reference position, a hammer case accommodating the hammer, the first spring, and the second spring, and a movement restrictor that restricts movement of the second spring in an internal space of the hammer case.

Abstract: An impact driver includes a hammer that is rotated by a motor and an anvil configured to be struck by the hammer to rotate the anvil about a rotational axis. A hammer case houses the hammer. Two or more bearings are provided inside the hammer case and support the anvil. To inhibit vibration of the anvil during operation, the bearings may be differing types, such as a regular ball bearing and an angular contact ball bearing, and/or the bearings may have different inner and/or outer diameters. A contact member, such as an O-ring, may be disposed in an insertion hole of the anvil to reduce vibrations that are transmitted to the tool bit.

Abstract: A tool-holding apparatus (70) includes an engaging member (71) for engaging a tool accessory (B) and being movably supported in axial and radial directions in a rotational-output shaft (26) having an insertion hole (81) for holding the tool accessory (B). A first biasing member (72) biases the engaging member towards engagement with the engaging member. A bit sleeve (73) is movable in the axial direction along an outer-circumferential surface of the rotational-output shaft between a blocking position at which radial outward movement of the engaging member is blocked and a permitting position at which radial outward movement of the engaging member is permitted. A second biasing member (74) biases the bit sleeve toward the blocking position. A positioning part (75) is fixed on the outer-circumferential surface of the rotational-output shaft and stops the bit sleeve at the blocking position.
