Abstract: Provided is a cartridge type coating film transfer tool, in which a cartridge can be simply dismounted and is readily exchanged. A case body comprises a slide member on an upper wall of an upper case. A tapered portion provided on the slide member is extended downward beyond a lower cartridge case of a tape cartridge in a height direction. When the slide member is slid toward a leading end side, a trailing end of the tape cartridge is lifted up until it abuts against a step portion in a state of riding over a tapered portion of the slide member. Thereby, it is possible to release engagement between engagement pawls and engagement holes, which are used in mounting the case body and the tape cartridge to each other.

Abstract: A rotary electric machine is provided in which the press-fit load of a stator magnetic pole to a frame is stabilized, thus stabilizing the performance of the rotary electric machine, and that has high anti-corrosiveness and anti-rusty sealing property and is inexpensive. Particularly a rotary electric machine suitable for a motor for motor power steering apparatus is provided. In a rotary electric machine having a stator magnetic pole press-fitted and fixed on an inner circumferential surface of a cylindrical frame made of a steel plate and having a rotor arranged via a gap to an inner circumferential side of the stator magnetic pole, the frame is formed by pressing a surface-treated steel plate having a plating layer of aluminum, magnesium, silicon, and zinc for the remaining part formed on a surface of the steel plate, into a cylindrical shape.

Abstract: A stator core is formed into a cylindrical shape, 3n teeth are disposed at a predetermined pitch in a circumferential direction where n is a positive integer, and slots are formed between adjacent pairs of the teeth so as to open onto an inner circumferential side. A stator coil is installed as a concentrated winding in the stator core. A rotor is rotatably disposed inside the stator and 2n permanent magnets are disposed at a predetermined pitch in a circumferential direction on an outer peripheral portion of a shaft. The stator core is constructed such that a slot opening (d) and a slot pitch (p) at an inner circumferential surface of the stator core satisfy an expression 0.1?d/p?0.3.

Abstract: An brush assembly is provided in which electric power losses in brushes 32 are reduced, thereby suppressing an abnormal or excessive rise in temperature of the brushes. A tip end of a lead wire 33 inserted into a corresponding brush 32 in a direction of pressing upon press molding thereof is embedded in the brush in such a manner that it extends over two thirds or more of the length in the pressing direction of the brush 32.

Abstract: An automatic paper feeder comprises: a pick roller for picking out paper accommodated in a paper cassette; a separation roller to which a torque limiter is connected, and which separates the paper picked out by the pick roller to feed the paper one sheet at a time; means for moving the separation roller into contact with or away from the pick roller; a lifter for lifting the paper accommodated in the paper cassette to cause the paper to be moved into contact with or away from the pick roller; and means for driving the lifter. The means for moving the separation roller into contact with or away from the pick roller and the means for driving the lifter are realized by a single driving means.

Abstract: A sheet carrying apparatus reduces skew of a sheet during carriage, and realizes high-quality print. A position detecting sensor detects a position in a direction perpendicular to a sheet carrying direction of the sheet carried by a sheet carrying roller. A skew angle of the sheet is calculated depending upon a deviation of the detected position from a predetermined reference position. Load rollers are on the right and left sides with respect to a sheet center line in the sheet carrying direction, and are respectively opposed to following rollers through the sheet so as to bring the sheet into pressure contact. A torque limiter to apply a braking force to the load roller, and the load roller are coupled or released by electromagnetic clutches. Thereby, the carrying forces can independently be controlled on the right and left sides of the sheet depending upon the skew angle.

Abstract: A thermal printer includes a platen roller on which a recording sheet is wound in such a manner that the recording sheet is laid over a part of the cylindrical wall of the platen roller. A thermal head is pushed against the platen roller to heat heating points selected for transferring ink from an ink sheet onto the recording sheet. A sheet pulling means pulls the recording sheet in a predetermined direction. A pinch roller on the sheet supplying side pushes the recording sheet against the platen roller with a predetermined force of depression so that the recording sheet is wound on the platen roller. A pinch roller rotating means is provided at at least one end of the pinch roller for rotating the pinch roller at a peripheral speed lower than that of the platen roller.

Abstract: A paper feeder comprises a tray having a stage on which papers to be fed are stacked, driving means for driving a platen, transmitting means for transmitting a motive power of the driving means to position the stage at predetermined position for paper feeding operation, and paper feeding means having a roller for feeding the uppermost one of the papers stacked on the stage when the uppermost paper positioned to contact with the feeding roller at the predetermined position by the motive power. It is advantageous that the paper feeder can be made economical and compact since there is no need to provide an exclusive motive power source having a speed reducer. Furthermore, a contact pressure between the paper feeding roller and the paper is stabilized to enhance the accuracy of the paper feeding.
