Abstract: A composite substrate includes a supporting substrate and a functional substrate that are directly joined together, the supporting substrate being a sintered sialon body.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a composite sintered body includes a step (Step S11) of molding mixed powder in which Al2O3, SiC, and MgO are mixed, into a green body having a predetermined shape and a step (Step S12) of generating a composite sintered body by sintering the green body. Then, in Step S11, the ratio of SiC to the mixed powder is not lower than 4.0 weight percentage and not higher than 13.0 weight percentage. Further, the purity of Al2O3 in Step S11 is not lower than 99.9%. It is thereby possible to suppress the abnormal grain growth of Al2O3 and suitably manufacture a composite sintered body having high relative dielectric constant and withstand voltage, and low tan ?.

Abstract: A printing apparatus to which an option unit can be connected includes a storage unit configured to store an update program for updating an option unit program, and an update unit configured to, if an option unit has been connected to the printing apparatus, update the option unit program using an update program stored by the storage unit.

Abstract: To provide a power seat slide device having improved effects of reducing abnormal sound, a temperature increase, and so on in gear mechanisms and so on. Gear mechanisms each include a case in which a worm and a worm wheel are rotatably supported, the cases are suspended from and supported by upper rails. The worms are connected to and supported by a rotational force transmission shaft of a drive mechanism, and the worm wheels are screwed to and supported by slide screws provided in lower rails. Further, the cases are supported on the lower rails via balls which are rolling members. This structure stabilizes a slide operation of the cases themselves and can further improve the effects of reducing abnormal sound and so on.

Abstract: A job processing apparatus that is capable of positively stopping a transmission job desired by a user. A transmission job is input according to a user's operation. Uncompleted transmission jobs out of input transmission jobs are managed by a job management table. A first stop instruction for stopping a transmission job is received according to a user's operation. In a case where the first stop instruction is received during display of a configuration screen for making settings of a transmission job, a transmission job input last out of the transmission jobs managed by the job management table is searched for, and the searched-for transmission job is stopped.

Abstract: To reduce energy loss to increase power transmission efficiency, as well as to suppress unusual sound resulting from whirling vibration. A driving force transmission mechanism includes a drive unit that generates a rotation force and consists of a motor, as well as an independent rotating mechanism that is disposed between the drive unit and one of a pair of left and right gear mechanisms so as to be connected to the output shaft of the drive unit and has greater kinetic energy than the rotating parts of the gear mechanisms. Flexible shafts that rotate by smaller kinetic energy than any of the kinetic energy of the drive unit, the kinetic energy of the rotating mechanism, and the friction forces and damping forces of the rotating parts of the gear mechanisms connect between the drive unit and rotating mechanism, between the rotating mechanism and one gear mechanism, and between the drive unit and the other gear mechanism.

Abstract: In a case where a setting content includes a destination to which an output product output by executing one application is to be transmitted, and in a case where a software key is selected, a menu screen including at least two of a first item for executing the application using the destination, a second item for executing the application using a setting content, and a third item for executing the application corresponding to a second software key based on the setting content is displayed.

Abstract: A torque transfer control mechanism that suppresses output-side displacement, and including a rotation control unit that maintains a locked state when an input torque rotating a transfer mechanism is not applied, and releases the locked state when the transfer mechanism rotates. The rotation control unit includes an internal gear and lock plates that include outer teeth that can engage with inner teeth of the internal gear. When an input torque is not applied, the inner teeth of the internal gear engage with the outer teeth of the lock plates, and when the transfer mechanism is rotated, engagement between the inner teeth and the outer teeth is released. Thus, even when torque is applied from the output unit side, engagement between the inner teeth and the outer teeth is not released by the torque.
