Patent number: 12257843Abstract: There is provided a liquid supplying apparatus including: a liquid container including an internal space, and a tank having a storing chamber. The liquid container has: an upper surface, a nozzle, and a circular wall projecting upward from the upper surface. The tank has: a body; a projecting wall defining a tank recessed part, and a communicating tube positioned in the tank recessed part and having first and second channels which communicate the storing chamber with outside. The circular wall is inserted into the tank recessed part, and the communicating tube is inserted into the opening of the nozzle so as to allow the liquid to flow out from the internal space to the storing chamber. In a case that the liquid container is connected to the tank, the circular wall is positioned inside the projecting wall.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2022Date of Patent: March 25, 2025Assignee: BROTHER KOGYO KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Naoya Okazaki, Satoru Oki, Nanami Abe, Masahiro Hayashi

Patent number: 8347209Abstract: According to the present invention, when a style relating to a dimension of all elements included in a subtree of a structured document is set in a relative unit, all these elements can be displayed in the same style. The user terminal 100 allocates a drawing area to each key when drawing each key configuring a key string of a tree structure, determines a root of a subtree to which a specific key belongs when a style whose format relating to dimension is expressed in the relative unit is set to the key, and converts the style expressed in the relative unit into an absolute unit with the drawing area allocated to the root of the subtree as reference and draws the key according to style expressed in the absolute unit.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2008Date of Patent: January 1, 2013Assignees: Kathenas Co., Ltd., NTT Data Institute of Data Management Consulting, Inc.Inventors: Naoya Abe, Katsuki Yoshimura
