Abstract: A liquid ejection head is operable to eject a liquid droplet toward a target position. A transporter feeds a first target medium toward the target position in a first direction. An ejector ejects the first target medium to the outside of the apparatus. The ejector includes a first roller and a second roller adapted to nip the first target medium transported from the target position in the first direction. A guide member is disposed at a position closer to the outside of the apparatus than the ejector, and has a guide face along which a tray member on which a second target medium is mounted is fed toward the target position in a second direction which is opposite to the first direction. The guide member is pivotable between a first position for closing the guide face and a second position for opening the guide face to support the tray member.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a recording head that performs recording on a recording medium and a recording medium transporting unit that is disposed on the upstream side of the recording head and transports the recording medium toward the recording head. The recording apparatus also includes a recording medium discharging unit disposed on the downstream side of the recording head and discharges the recording medium on which recording has been performed. A platen faces the recording head, and defines a gap between the recording medium and the recording head by supporting the recording medium. The recording medium transporting unit includes a transport driving roller that rotates, and a plurality of transport driven rollers that are spaced apart from one another in a main-scanning direction by a suitable distance and come in pressure contact with the transport driving roller to be driven to rotate.

Abstract: A plate-shaped main body, has a first face formed with a recess portion defined by a bottom face and side walls and a second face which is opposite to the first face. The plate-shaped main body is formed with a through hole connecting the bottom face and the second face. An overhanging portion, is provided on at least one of the side walls in the vicinity of the first face, and is located so as to at least partially hang over the through hole.

Abstract: Printing the image data displayed on an LCD (38) and its print number or incrementing the print number by one can be specified only by depressing a DPOF dedicated switch (41) while the still image is being displayed on the LCD (38). For example, if the DPOF dedicated switch (41) is depressed when still image is being displayed in a reproduction mode, the print number of displayed image data is set to one, and if the DPOF dedicated switch (41) is depressed successively without changing the displayed image, the print number of the image data is set to two.

Abstract: An anhydrous chloride with a formula of MCl2 (M=Fe, Co or Ni) is dissolved into an anhydrous acetonitrile solvent to form a chloride-acetonitrile solution. Then, calcium carbide minute powders are added and dispersed in the chloride-acetonitrile solution at a molar quantity equal to or smaller by 1–30 mol % than the molar quantity of the anhydrous chloride to form a reactive solution. Then, the reactive solution is heated at a predetermined temperature to chemically react the anhydrous chloride with the calcium carbide minute powders in the reactive solution to form a transition metal acetylide compound having an M-C2-M bond, a tetragonal structure, and a formula of MC2 (herein, M=Fe, Co or Ni).

Then, calcium carbide minute powders are added and dispersed in the chloride-acetonitrile solution to form a reactive solution. Then, the reactive solution is thermally treated (first thermal treatment) to form a nano-powder made of a transition metal acetylide compound having an M-C2-M bond, a tetragonal structure, and a formula of MC2 (herein, M=Fe, Co or Ni). Then, the nano-powder is thermally treated (second thermal treatment) again at a temperature higher than the temperature in the first thermal treatment to form a carbon layer-covering transition metallic nano-structure wherein a metallic core made of the transition metal M is covered with a carbon layer.

Abstract: With rotating and translating a rotation-translation drum installed in a vacuum chamber of a mass spectrometry interface to constitute a mass spectro-meter, a liquid sample incorporating a dissolved substance to be analyzed in its mass is emitted for the drum from a sample supplying nozzle of the mass spectrometry interface, and the dissolved substance is isolated as a spiral filament on the drum. Then, a laser beam is irradiated onto the filament from a laser source via a laser beam inlet situated at the vacuum chamber and thereby, the dissolved substance is ionized without exposing to the air.
