  • Patent number: 11367463
    Abstract: A reversible recording medium according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is a reversible recording medium that includes recording layers and heat-insulating layers that are alternately stacked, in which the recording layers each include a reversible heat-sensitive color developing composition and a first light-heat converting agent. In this reversible recording medium, the recording layers are different from each other in a developing color of their respective reversible heat-sensitive color developing compositions and are different from each other in an absorption wavelength of their respective first light-heat converting agents. This reversible recording medium further includes a heat-generating layer that includes a second light-heat converting agent having an absorption wavelength that is different from the absorption wavelength of the first light-heat converting agent included in each of the recording layers.

  • Patent number: 11173740
    Abstract: An erasing unit according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is a unit that performs erasing of information written on a reversible recording medium. This erasing unit includes: a light source section including one or a plurality of laser devices; and a controller that controls the light source section to cause the light source section to emit a smaller number of laser light beams having emission wavelengths than the number of the recording layers included in the reversible recording medium.

  • Publication number: 20150068456
    Abstract: [Object] To provide techniques such as a mask adjustment unit capable of appropriately adjusting the position of a mask pattern. [Solving Means] A mask adjustment unit according to the present technology includes a base body, a movable member, and an adjustment mechanism. The movable member supports a side of an outer edge portion of a mask main body and is movably provided on the base body, the mask main body having the outer edge portion. The adjustment mechanism applies, to the mask body via the movable member, both pulling tension force from the outer edge portion of the mask main body to outside of the mask main body and pressing force pressing from the outer edge portion to inside of the mask main body, the mask body being supported by the movable member.
