  • Patent number: 11472648
    Abstract: A sheet supporting apparatus includes a sheet supporting unit having a sheet supporting portion including a supporting surface on which a sheet is supported, and a first engagement unit attached to the sheet supporting portion, and a second engagement unit to draw in the sheet supporting unit toward an attaching position where the sheet supporting unit is attached to an apparatus body. The first engagement unit includes a first engagement portion, a base portion supported by the sheet supporting portion, and a holder that is supported movably in a perpendicular direction perpendicular to the supporting surface by the base portion and configured to hold the first engagement portion. The base portion supports the holder swingably around a swing shaft that extends in a direction orthogonal to both the perpendicular direction and an inserting direction in which the sheet supporting unit is inserted.

  • Patent number: 8955972
    Abstract: An ophthalmologic apparatus includes an aberration measurement unit configured to measure aberration caused by a subject's eye by using a return beam of a first measuring beam from the subject's eye, a correction unit configured to correct aberration of a return beam of a second measuring beam from the subject's eye caused by the subject's eye based on the aberration measured by the aberration measurement unit, a first acquisition unit configured to obtain a first image of the subject's eye by using the aberration-corrected return beam of the second measuring beam from the subject's eye, and a control unit configured to enter one of the first measuring beam and the second measuring beam into the subject's eye while limiting entry of the other measuring beams into the subject's eye.

  • Publication number: 20110130065
    Abstract: A method for producing a display is provided, the method comprising a step of adhering a light-transmissive substrate, wherein it is possible to suppress the occurrence of any bubble when the light-transmissive substrate is adhered to a display surface, even when the display surface is large-sized. A plurality of adhesive puddles 3 are formed in an area which is disposed on a first light-transmissive substrate 1 and which is opposed to an adhesive puddle 4 formed on a second light-transmissive substrate 2. The spacing distance between the first and second light-transmissive substrates 1, 2 is narrowed while allowing the first and second light-transmissive substrates 1, 2 to be opposed to one another, and a space between the both is filled with the adhesive.
