  • Patent number: 12162709
    Abstract: A post-processing apparatus includes a first conveyor, a second conveyor, a third conveyor, and a conveyance passage corrector. The first conveyor conveys a sheet conveyed along a first conveyance passage downstream from the first conveyor. The second conveyor conveys the sheet along a second conveyance passage. The third conveyor conveys the sheet along a third conveyance passage. The conveyance passage corrector includes a retracting mechanism to retract from a joining position at which the third conveyance passage joins to the first conveyance passage and turns a conveyance direction of the sheet toward the first conveyor when the sheet enters from the third conveyance passage to the first conveyance passage.

  • Patent number: 7611167
    Abstract: A fuel tank is provided which suppresses wave motion on the liquid surface of fuel which occurs when a vehicle accelerates or decelerates. A front wall and/or a rear wall of the fuel tank includes a plurality of steps formed integrally therewith. The liquid surface of the fuel striking the steps is dispersed, and wave motion on the liquid surface is thereby suppressed. Since the steps are formed in the front wall and/or the rear wall of the fuel tank, the volume of the tank is not reduced.

  • Patent number: 7427031
    Abstract: A semiconductor memory device including a flash memory and a RAM incorporating a pseudo-SRAM contained in an MCP, has an internal transfer control signal for controlling internal data transfer between the flash memory and pseudo-SRAM, and an external transfer control signal for controlling data transfer between an external CPU and pseudo-SRAM, as control signals for the pseudo-SRAM. A flash controller in the RAM controls the internal transfer control signal so as to suspend the internal data transfer between the flash memory and pseudo-SRAM when the external CPU requests access to the pseudo-SRAM during the internal data transfer.

  • Patent number: 7128486
    Abstract: A feeding container (1, 101, 301) for a stick-form cosmetic material (A, B, C) comprises a sleeve (10, 110, 310) which accommodates a tubular holder (31, 131, 331) holding the base end of the stick-form cosmetic material (A, B, C). By constituting the holder (31, 131, 331) by a thin film, an appropriate clearance can be set between the cosmetic material (A, B, C) and the inner periphery of the sleeve (10, 110, 310) without providing a step in the outer periphery of the cosmetic material (A, B, C). The form of an opening portion of the holder (31, 131, 331) is corrected by the inner periphery of the sleeve (10, 110, 310) when the holder (31, 131, 331) is inserted into the sleeve (10, 110, 310), so the cosmetic material (A, B, C) can be fitted easily into the holder (31, 131, 331) in the sleeve (10, 110, 310).

  • Patent number: 6996006
    Abstract: A memory mat is provided separately from a memory mat that is a normal memory area, and data therein cannot be read from the outside. In a page buffer, information input from the outside is stored. A comparing circuit compares security information stored in memory mat with information stored in page buffer, and the comparison result is output to the outside as a status. Even when unauthorized copying is performed, information in memory mat is not copied. Therefore, an external apparatus can easily determine whether or not the semiconductor memory is an unauthorized copy by referring to the status.

  • Patent number: 6899484
    Abstract: A front cylinder and base are rotatably connected. Relative rotations cause stick-type cosmetic material retained by a core chuck member to slide forward and backward along an axial hole of the cylinder. Axially extending first slide grooves along an inner circumference of the hole have an inside diameter almost equal to a diameter of the material. Second grooves, deeper than the first, extend continuously from ends of the first grooves. Claws at a front-end section of the chuck retain the material and are slidably guided by the grooves. Back surfaces of the claws slide into contact with bottoms of the first grooves. Inner surfaces of the claws almost coincide with an inside diameter of the hole. If the material is loaded in the chuck with the claws at the second grooves, the claws elastically deform outward and the claws receive the material. With the claws at the first grooves, the claws tightly sandwich the material.

  • Patent number: 6896434
    Abstract: In a stick type cosmetic material feeding container 1, a stick type cosmetic material A retained at a front end of a core chuck member 30 moves in an axial direction in a front cylinder 10 by a feeding mechanism due to rotary operation of the front cylinder 10 and a base cylinder 20. A cylindrical body 34 which defines the advance limit and retreat limit of a feeding stroke is installed at a rear part of the core chuck member 30. Elastic engagement projections 37 which are spirally engaged with a roulette-shaped spiral 22 of the base cylinder 20 and have elasticity are installed at an outer circumference of the cylindrical body 34. Further, the cylindrical body 34 is provided with an elastic slit 34c for absorbing a shock in an axial direction.
