Abstract: A compound obtained through Michael addition reaction of an ?-aminoacetophenone skeleton-containing compound (I) represented by the following general formula (1) and a reactive compound (II) having a function as a Michael acceptor is used as a photopolymerization initiator. In the general formula (1), R1 represents an aliphatic group, R2 to R3 each independently represent an aliphatic group, etc., R4 to R7 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, X1 represents a single bond or a C1-6 alkylene group, X2 represents a carbonyl group, Y1 and Y2 represent a group represented by the following general formula (2). However, when Y1 and Y2 both have a structure represented by the general formula (2), X5 in at least one of them is —NH—. In the general formula (2), X3 and X4 each independently represent a linear or branched alkylene group having 2 to 6 carbon atoms, X5 represents a single bond, —O— or —NH—.

Abstract: A stud type bearing including an outer ring having a gear portion on its outer circumference, the outer ring being rotatably supported on the free end of a shaft member by rolling elements. The outer ring is held axially between a flange at the free end of the shaft member on one side of the outer ring and a side plate fitted over the shaft member at the other side of the outer ring. A lubricant feed hole is formed in the free end of the shaft member and in the outer ring for providing lubricant to the rolling elements and the gear portion. A fitting portion is formed in the free end of the shaft member for accepting a fastening tool for fastening the shaft member to another structure.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus is described which includes a photoreceptor drum; an LED head for exposure provided along the width of the photoreceptor drum; a pin provided on the LED head; a supporting base substance to which the photoreceptor drum is attached; and a pin admitting groove provided on the supporting base substance for admitting the pin. The LED head is half-fixed on the supporting base substance.

Abstract: In an image forming apparatus, a latent image is formed on a photoreceptor by an LED printing head based on image information. The latent image is developed into a toner image by a developing apparatus, to which a developing bias voltage is applied. The developing bias voltage is controlled according to a temperature of the LED printing head sensed by a temperature sensor so that a toner density of a toner image formed by the developing apparatus is appropriate.
