Abstract: An ink jet recording apparatus, which forms images on a recording medium using an ink jet recording head to discharge ink onto the medium to record the image. The recording material is carried and ink mist generated at the time of image recording flows along an air path in a specific direction. Electric field formation members arranged for the wall faces of the air path. With the structure thus arranged, effective mist collection is possible Without making the pressure loss of the air flow unduly large. stains that would otherwise result in the interior of the recording apparatus can be prevented, hence avoiding the deposition of ink mists on parts that may cause the defective operation particularly due to the deposition of such stains. Then, it becomes possible to record images stably for a long time, and the reliability of the ink jet recording apparatus is enhanced significantly.

Abstract: This invention involves a device to be used with a bass drum. The device has two foot pedals with a mallet attached to each pedal. The user can step on one first foot pedal which has an overlapping portion over the second foot pedal to cause a two beat contact with the drum. The user can also just step on the second foot pedal for a single contact of the mallet with the drum.

Abstract: An electronic voice circuit configuration can be connected through a first and a second line terminal to a telephone line. The electronic voice circuit configuration has a calling part, a transmitting device, a receiver device, a symmetrical modulator circuit with voltage stabilization, a symmetrical equipment impedance device with a device for symmetry control and direct-current limiting, and a symmetrical control device.
