  • Patent number: 8169614
    Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a colorimeter that obtains color measurement data from a recording surface of a recording material, a colorimeter holder that holds the colorimeter, a colorimeter carriage that reciprocates the colorimeter holder on a retainer member that holds the recording material during color measurement, and a link mechanism that links the colorimeter holder and the colorimeter carriage. The colorimeter holder is linked by the link mechanism rotatably by a predetermined angle around a first axis along the reciprocating direction on the retainer member, and rotatably by a predetermined angle around a second axis along the surface of the recording material held by the retainer member and perpendicular to the reciprocating direction.

  • Patent number: 8109594
    Abstract: A color measuring unit that is easily mounted in a recording apparatus and measures with high accuracy. All of the elements of the color measuring are integrated into a single unit, such that the color measuring can be used independently in a separated form. The color measuring unit is equipped with a calorimeter holder holding a calorimeter. A carriage reciprocating means is connected to the calorimeter holder and has a calorimeter carriage for reciprocally moving the calorimeter holder in a column direction formed by a color measuring pattern. A pressing member in a pressing posture presses the surface of a recording member on which the color measuring pattern is recorded when measuring color. In a retreated posture, the pressing member retreats so that the recording member can be transported. A rotating and shifting means switches the pressing posture and the retreated posture of the pressing member.

  • Publication number: 20050051011
    Abstract: In a cutting device for a recording medium, a cutter cuts a portion of the recording medium, which has been transported in a first direction and subjected to a recording operation, in the first direction and a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. A press roller is disposed adjacent to the cutter to retain the recording medium when the cutting operation is performed. A first driver moves the cutter and the press roller between a first position and a second position in a third direction orthogonal to the first direction and the second direction. A second driver changes an attitude of at least one of the cutter and the press roller in accordance with the direction of the cutting operation.

  • Patent number: 4182110
    Abstract: An electronic wristwatch including an auxiliary power supply for energizing at least the timekeeping circuit when the main power supply is being removed for replacement is provided. The wristwatch includes a high frequency time standard that vibrates at a high frequency and a timekeeping circuit coupled to the high frequency time standard for converting the high frequency vibrations of the time standard into low frequency timekeeping signals representative of actual time. A display is coupled to the timekeeping circuit for displaying actual time in response to the low frequency timekeeping signals applied thereto. The main power supply is coupled to the timekeeping circuit and to the display for delivering a voltage of a sufficient magnitude to operate the timekeeping circuit and display.
