Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a float assembly that can prevent the floats from flipping. The present invention provides a float assembly including a plurality of floats connected together comprising: a filled float having a hollow portion, wherein the hollow portion has a part filled with a filler, and the filled float is arranged at a position facing an assembly periphery surrounding the float assembly.

Abstract: The present invention has been made in view of the foregoing, and an object thereof is to provide a float assembly that is configured to be rotatable and that defines a rotation axis without constructing the expensive pillar. The present invention provides a float assembly configured to float on water, comprising: a shaft wire extending from substantially a center of the float assembly toward underwater and configured to maintain tension, wherein the float assembly is moored by the shaft wire and configured to be rotatable.

Abstract: Present invention provides a float capable of suppressing deformation of the synthetic resin body even if internal gas expands and contracts due to environmental temperature change. A float comprises a float body made of a synthetic resin molded in a hollow shape, a projecting portion projecting from the upper surface of the float body and having a vent hole, and a microporous membrane adhered to the outside of the vent hole.

Abstract: A packing member for packing a cartridge that is detachably mountable to an image forming apparatus includes a first portion having an opening as an entrance for the cartridge, a recessed portion for accommodating the cartridge, and first and second limiting portions for limiting positions of the cartridge in directions perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the cartridge. The packing member also includes a second portion for openably covering the opening. The first and second limiting portions contact portions of the cartridge excluding a region where the electrostatic latent image is to be formed on a photosensitive drum or a developing roller.

Abstract: A packing member for packing a cartridge detachably mountable to an image forming apparatus is molded with a thin resin material plate and includes: (i) a frame portion including an opening as an entrance for the cartridge, a first recessed portion for accommodating the cartridge, and a first limiting portion for limiting a position of the cartridge with respect to a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the cartridge; and (ii) a cap portion for openably covering the opening. The cap portion includes a second limiting portion for limiting movement of the cartridge, positionally-limited by the first limiting portion, in a direction in which the cartridge is spaced from the first limiting portion.

Abstract: A packing member for packing a cartridge which is detachably mountable to an image forming apparatus includes: a frame portion including an opening as an entrance for the cartridge, a first recessed portion for accommodating the cartridge, and a limiting portion, provided in the first recessed portion, for limiting a position of the cartridge with respect to the direction crossing a limiting portion of the cartridge; and a cap portion, provided rotatably connected to the frame portion by a hinge portion, for openably covering the opening. The limiting portion limits the position of the cartridge so that the cartridge is located in a position where a grip portion of the cartridge is remoter from the hinge portion than the center line of the cartridge with respect to the crossing direction and a direction crossing an entering direction in which the cartridge enters the frame portion.
