The controller is configured to: measure first particular values indicating characteristics of N of heating elements and save the first particular values in the memory; measure second particular values indicating characteristics of the N of heating elements and save the second particular values in the memory; determine difference values between the first particular values and the second particular values; determine a characteristic value based on the difference values; and detect replacement of the head when the controller has determined that the characteristic value exceeds a predefined threshold value.

Abstract: In a printing device, a thermal head has heating elements and prints an image made up of line images. A memory stores sets of parameters, each set including one of first parameters and corresponding one of second parameters. The controller calculates an average consumed power with respect to a line image subject to calculation by dividing a total amount of consumed power by a period of time set in each first parameter, thereby providing average consumed powers for the sets of parameters. The total amount of consumed power is an accumulated consumed power consumed in the heating elements energized during printing in the period of time including a print timing of the line image subject to calculation. The controller sets a cycle time for printing the line image subject to calculation so that each average consumed power does not exceed an upper limit specified by corresponding one of second parameters.

Abstract: An arrangement structure for a seal member includes: a first member having a first mating surface and provided with a groove portion; a second member having a second mating surface, and configured to move relatively to the first member; and an annular seal member fitted into the groove portion, providing sealing between the first member and the second member, and serving as a partition between an atmosphere-side space and a pressurized-side space. The seal member includes a plurality of first protruding portions protruding toward the second mating surface and aligned from the atmosphere-side space toward the pressurized-side space. The seal member has such a shape that, in a state of not being fitted into the groove portion, a protrusion height of the first protruding portion increases in stages from the first protruding portion arranged close to the pressurized-side space toward the first protruding portion arranged close to the atmosphere-side space.

Abstract: A seal structure includes a ring-shaped seal member. The seal member is disposed in a seal groove. The case includes a low-pressure lateral face in a cross section of the seal structure, the cross section being taken along an imaginary plane in parallel with a shaft axial direction of the shaft and passing through a center line of the shaft. The seal member includes a first protruding portion. The first protruding portion protrudes from a main portion having a bottom face in contact with the low-pressure lateral face, and has a shape such that the first protruding portion extends toward the shaft as the first protruding portion extends toward the low-pressure side. The first protruding portion includes a tip. The first protruding portion includes a contact region in contact with the shaft. The tip is closer to the low-pressure side than the contact region is.
