Abstract: A panel structure for a transport machine is disclosed which is constituted by an integral combination of an outer panel and an inner panel. The inner panel has reinforcing protuberances and recesses, possessing a higher rigidity than the outer panel. The protuberances of the inner panel and a back side of the outer panel are bonded together through insulating layers present on the protuberances.

Abstract: In a method for permuting and dividing 16 pieces of k-bit data held in 4 k-bit long registers T0. T1, T2 and T3, k being an integer, the data of each register Ti is ANDed with a desired one of mask data (00ffff00), (ff0000ff), (0000ffff) and (ffff0000), and such ANDs are ORed to obtain desired permuted data.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: an image reading device for reading images on a document; an image recording device for recording images read by the image reading device on a recording material; an inputting device that makes it possible for an operator to select either area from plural imaginary areas established in advance and to adjust a position in the selected area, for setting, on a given position on the recording material, a recording position for additional information to be recorded on the recording material by the image recording device in addition to the images stated above; and a controller that controls the image recording device for recording the additional information on the recording position that is set by the inputting device.

Abstract: A double-walled damping structure includes two parallel face plates 1 and 2, a plurality of ribs 3 and 4 extending in the same direction to connect the two parallel face plates 1 and 2, wherein in a section taken perpendicularly to the direction of extension of the ribs 3 and 4, all or most of the holes defined by the adjacent two ribs and the face plates are trapezoidal. The structure less transmits vibration, and is capable of further increasing a damping effect when a damping material is attached.

Abstract: The present invention concerns an image forming apparatus, wherein workability in forming images on recording materials in various types and sizes has been improved. The image forming apparatus includes a storing member for storing recording materials having an arbitrary size; a first input device for inputting size information corresponding to the arbitrary size of the recording materials; and a controller for controlling an image forming operation according to the size information inputted by the first input device. The size information includes regular size information and non-regular size information.
