  • Publication number: 20150266318
    Abstract: A recording apparatus records an image onto a recording medium by repeating processes of: ejecting liquid from a nozzle in a liquid ejecting head while the liquid ejecting head is scanning the recording medium in a first direction; and transporting the recording medium in a second direction intersecting the first direction. This recording apparatus includes: an inclination acquisition section that acquires an inclination of the liquid ejecting head; and a recording controller that records a first image and a second image onto the recording medium through a first scan and a second scan independent of the first scan, respectively. The recording controller corrects a connection misalignment between the first and second images by displacing a recorded location of the second image in the first direction in accordance with the inclination, and reduces the displacement when a non-recorded region is present between the first and second images.

  • Patent number: 9103385
    Abstract: To be able to promote discharge of lubricating oil in a disengaged state while maintaining a large lining area to such an extent that it does not affect torque transmission capacity, heat resistance, and peeling resistance thereby to obtain an excellent effect to reduce a drag torque in a wide range of relative rotation speeds. In a segment friction material 1A as a wet friction material, drag torque reducing grooves 5A are provided only on top surfaces of part of segment pieces 3A among thirty pieces of segment pieces 3, 3A. A series of drag torque reducing grooves 5A extend over five segment pieces 3A along a direction almost at right angles to a straight line connecting a center point 5Aa thereof and a center O of a circumference. The series of drag torque reducing grooves 5A are provided at three places on the circumference. Thereby, discharge of ATF is promoted without reducing a lining area and an oil film is formed on the top surface of the segment piece 3A.
