Abstract: A liquid soap supplying device of the present invention includes a tank for storing liquid soap, a discharging nozzle communicating with the tank through a pipe, a liquid soap supplying device for supplying liquid soap in the tank to the discharging nozzle, an air supplying device communicating with the discharging nozzle through a pipe and a mixing chamber for liquid soap and air arranged in the discharging port of the discharging nozzle. The liquid soap and air supplied under operation of each of the supplying devices are mixed and agitated in the mixing chamber so as to discharge the bubbled liquid soap. A pressuring device communicates with the air accumulation part at an inner upper part in the tank.
Abstract: A carriage on which a head is mounted has a rack which can be engaged with gear teeth located on a specific position. The gear teeth can be moved so as to engage with and disengage from the rack. The rack has a first pitch different from a second pitch of the gear teeth so as to maintain sure engagement.
Abstract: A strobe unit in which a reflecting mirror is located behind a light source. The strobe unit includes an imaginary semielliptical reflecting mirror having a major axis located on an axis of illumination that passes through the center of the light source. Imaginary quarter-elliptical reflecting mirrors are formed by splitting the imaginary semi-elliptical reflecting mirror along the major axis into two mirror elements which are spaced a predetermined distance from one another in a direction perpendicular to the major axis. The reflecting mirror is defined by modified quarter-elliptical reflecting mirrors which are symmetrical in shape with respect to the axis of illumination and have a continuous smooth reflecting surface that extends between open ends of the imaginary quarter-elliptical reflecting mirrors, and ends which are adjacent to the light source and located between the imaginary semi-elliptical reflecting mirror and quarter-elliptical reflecting mirrors.
