Patent number: 8313683Abstract: A method for manufacturing a plastic laminated article comprising a surface layer of a sheet-like surface member and a synthetic resin backing material layer laminated on the surface layer, without causing a fracture or a reduction in wall thickness of the sheet-like surface member. When the male mold is pressed against the contact area of the sheet-like surface member, the temperature of the contact area of the sheet-like surface member gradually falls due to a thermal gradient between the male mold and the contact area of the sheet-like surface member. Simultaneously, the contact area of the sheet-like surface member is not heated directly. In addition, the direction of jet flow of a hot fluid is changed, by fluid guide surfaces, from the center of the sheet-like surface member to the outer periphery, of the sheet-like surface member.Type: GrantFiled: February 10, 2009Date of Patent: November 20, 2012Assignee: Moriroku Technology Company, Ltd.Inventors: Hideki Baba, Kouji Akasaka, Daiju Kawakami

Patent number: 6437881Abstract: An image of an original document supplied from a scanner portion or the like is, in an attribute-determining portion, subjected to a process for determining whether each pixel is a character pixel or a picture pixel. Thus, separating information is transmitted to a two-layer separating portion and transmitted to a resolution converting portion as data of a separating information plane. The two-layer separating portion separates the image of the original document into a character information plane and a picture information plane in accordance with separating information. The resolution converting portion has a plurality of resolution converting methods. In accordance with transmission attribute information supplied from outside, a transmission-attribute-information recognizing portion selects a resolution converting method independently for each plane. The resolution converting portion uses the selected resolution converting method to subject each plane to the resolution converting process.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 1998Date of Patent: August 20, 2002Assignee: Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hideki Baba, Hiroshi Sekine, Noriyuki Kurabayashi, Yumi Sekiguchi, Mikihiro Mori
