Abstract: A medical imaging apparatus includes an anode rotating type X-ray tube which generates X-rays, a high voltage generation unit implemented by circuitry which generates a high voltage to be applied to the X-ray tube, a power supply unit implemented by circuitry which supplies power to the high voltage generation unit, and a control unit implemented by circuitry which controls the high voltage generation unit to stop or start supply of a filament current to the X-ray tube and/or supply of a current to a stator coil for anode rotation in accordance with a predetermined rule.

Abstract: A paper money processing device includes a device conveyance unit that receives a paper money inserted into an input port and feeds the received paper money to a storage cassette in a device housing, and a device conveyance unit that has one end connected to the device conveyance unit and the other end exposed to the outside of the device housing from a supply/collection port upon a paper money supply and a paper money collection.

Abstract: To provide a binder that has high adhesiveness to a collector, does not cause release in press molding, has high flexibility, and is excellent in binding capability and resistance to an electrolytic solution, and to provide a lithium secondary battery that is excellent in charge and discharge characteristics using an electrode produced with the binder. The binder for an electrode used contains a hydrophilic group-containing polyurethane as a water dispersion that contains (A) a polyisocyanate, (B) a compound that has two or more active hydrogen groups, (C) a compound that has one or more active hydrogen groups and one or more hydrophilic groups, and (D) a chain extending agent, or contains an aqueous resin composition containing a polymer of an unsaturated polymerizable monomer that is emulsified with the hydrophilic group-containing polyurethane.

Abstract: An article conveying device 10 in which a floor surface 21 of each of a plurality of fixed floors 20 is arranged so as to form a descending slope towards a downstream side in a conveying direction with respect to each other, each of a plurality of moving floors 30 is adjacently arranged on a side in the conveying direction with respect to each fixed floor 20, and a raising/lowering operation of simultaneously positioning the respective floor surface 31 of each moving floor 30 at a high position and a low position with respect to the floor surface 21 of the adjacent fixed floor 20 is repeated to arrange the floor surface 31 of each moving floor 30 positioned at the high position so as to form a descending slope towards the downstream side in the conveying direction with respect to each other.
