Abstract: A bag-making and packaging apparatus, for forming a bag containing a packaged article from a conveyed packaging material, is disclosed. The apparatus includes a printing part, first and second receiving parts, and a retaining part. The printing part prints information on the packaging material. The first receiving part is used in a first mode to print on the packaging material during conveyance without stopping conveyance. The second receiving part is used in a second mode to print on the packaging material at a timing when conveyance of the packaging material is stopped. The retaining part retains the first receiving part or the second receiving part so that the first receiving part and the printing part face each other with the packaging material disposed therebetween in the first mode, and the second receiving part and the printing part face each other with the packaging material disposed therebetween in the second mode.

Abstract: A food-processing device includes a processor, an imaging device, an authentication part, and a management part. The food-processing device processes a food in a line in which the food is manufactured. The processor performs at least one process on the food. The imaging device captures an image of an eye of a user of the food-processing device. The authentication part authenticates the user in response to the image of the user's eye captured by the imaging device. The management part makes the process performed by the processor executable for the user authenticated by the authentication part. The authentication part authenticates the user in response to processing information of the user's iris included in the image of the user's eye.

Abstract: Key switches and an electronic device are provided, which have excellent design in which the key tops cover at least the whole of the width direction and the sides. A key switch (100) has a flat key top (110) in which adjacent key are disposed with no space therebetween, and portions of the key top (110) corresponding to keys located at the left and right ends of the key switch (100) each has a curved surface R as an end part (100a) of the key switch (100), which wraps around a side of a case and fits into a groove part (220a) of an outer frame (220). The key switch (100) includes the key top (110), a metal frame (120), and an elastic plate member supporting substrate (130), and a backside of the key top (110) is bonded to surfaces of elastic plate members (132, 133) of the elastic plate member supporting substrate (130) by silicon adhesive. The metal frame (120) is sandwiched between the key top (110) and the elastic plate member supporting substrate (130).

Abstract: A purpose of the present invention is to provide a compact hinge apparatus in which a clearance between a rotating shaft and cover members is small and a rotation radius of the rotating shaft is small, and to provide an opening/closing type communication terminal equipped with the hinge apparatus. The hinge apparatus is comprised of: a hollow-shaped first rotating shaft (125) which can be pivotably moved; a second rotating shaft (126) which is intersected with this first rotating shaft (125) in a pivotable manner; a guide shaft (128) which is provided inside the first rotating shaft (125) and guides a cam (132) mounted on the second rotating shaft (126) at a predetermined position; a first casing member which is mounted on the first rotating shaft (125) in an integral manner; a second casing member which is mounted on the first rotating shaft in an integral manner; and both a front cover (141) and a rear cover (142), which cover both the first rotating shaft (125) and the second rotating shaft (126).

Abstract: It is an object of the invention to provide a portable type electronic apparatus including a hinge portion having a rotating function in a plurality of directions, wherein two casings can be held stably without shaking in a state in which they are opened. A portable type electronic apparatus (101) includes a hinge portion (30) for coupling a first casing (10) and a second casing (20) in such a manner that both of the casings can be opened and closed through a first rotating axis (31) and the first casing (10) can be rotated through a second rotating axis (32) in an orthogonal direction to the first rotating axis (31).

Abstract: A mobile terminal device having a camera function and comprising a casing of reduced size, in which the arrangement of the functional components other than a camera unit is not restricted by the camera unit. The mobile terminal device (1) comprises a casing (2) having a liquid crystal display unit (15) on its surface (6) and camera unit (16) housed in a camera housing (17) provided on the right side face (7) of the terminal casing (2) in such a way that it can emerge/hide parallel with the casing surface (6) from/into the camera housing (17). The imaging lens section of the camera unit (16) is arranged on the side face of a rotary member (21) protruding from the camera housing (17). The rotary member (21) can rotate around the axis of protrusion with respect to a slide member (20) so as to adjust the imaging direction of the imaging lens unit of a camera body (53).
