Abstract: A manual feed tray is located at a side surface of a main housing. A supply roller conveys a sheet on the manual feed tray toward a print engine. A pressure plate is movable between a contact position at which the sheet on the manual feed tray contacts the supply roller and a separated position at which the sheet on the manual feed tray is separated from the supply roller. A push-up cam pushes up the pressure plate from the separated position to the contact position. The push-up cam includes a contact portion configured to contact the pressure plate. A controller is configured to: when performing printing on a plurality of sheets, after moving the pressure plate from the separated position to the contact position, convey the plurality of sheets by intermittently driving the supply roller while maintaining the pressure plate at the contact position.

Abstract: A communication device that attaches to a network and performs radio communication, the communication device is configured to receive, from the network, a reject message indicating rejection in response to a request from the communication device to the network or a request for a detach from the network. The communication device is configured to transmit an attach request message to the network. The communication device configured to determine that a state of a service contract with respect to the network is a contract-canceled state when a first condition is satisfied and then a second condition is satisfied, wherein the first condition is a condition that the receiver consecutively receives the reject message from the network over a predetermined time period, and the second condition is a condition that the attach request message transmitted by the transmitter is rejected by the network.

Abstract: The sheet-like rubber forming device has a die body which has an opening having a predetermined cross sectional shape, and a variable die lip which is arranged in a front side of the die body and can change the height of the opening. The variable die lip is constructed by a first movable body and a second movable body. The die lip control unit controls the variable die lip so as to drive the first movable body in an opening direction from a state in which the first movable body and the second movable body are closed when the forming is started, hold the positions of the first movable body and the second movable body after reaching a predetermined height, and drive the second movable body in a closing direction when the forming is finished.

Abstract: There is provided a process for producing an amide compound having an excellent harmful arthropod-controlling activity and represented by the formula (3): wherein R1, R2 and R3 independently represent a C1-C6 alkyl group optionally substituted with at least one halogen atom etc., R4, R5, R6 and R7 independently represent a halogen atom etc.

Abstract: An electric brake with a parking mechanism includes a parking lock device. A rotating side engaging surface of the parking lock device is formed with rotating side engaging projections at a plurality of places in a circumference direction of the rotating side engaging surface. One side surfaces in the circumference direction of the rotating side engaging projections are inclined edges which are inclined relative to a direction a restraining side engaging member of the parking lock device is displaced. The inclined edges are inclined in such a direction that a range in which the inclined edges and distal ends of the restraining side engaging member engage with each other is increased as the inclined edges go forward in a direction the restraining side engaging member moves based on an elastic force of an elastic member of the parking lock device.
