Publication number: 20250033919Abstract: A media processing apparatus includes a slit insertable a sheet bundle of multiple sheets, a sheet-bundle holder, a liquid applier, a press binder, and a controller. The sheet-bundle holder holds the sheet bundle and detects the thickness of the sheet bundle. The liquid applier applies liquid to the sheet bundle. The press binder presses and binds the sheet bundle to perform press-binding process. The controller causes the sheet-bundle holder to hold the sheet bundle and detect the thickness of the sheet bundle, determines whether to cause the liquid applier to apply liquid to the sheet bundle based on the thickness of the sheet bundle, causes the liquid applier to apply the liquid to the sheet bundle when it is determined that the thickness of the sheet bundle is equal or larger than a prescribed thickness, and causes the press binder to press and bind the sheet bundle.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2024Publication date: January 30, 2025Applicant: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventors: Satoshi Hirata, Yuusuke Shibasaki, Yusuke Hirono, Atsushi Shinoda, Shuuto Tohkaishi, Shingo Yoshizawa, Suzuka Fujita, Naofumi Yoshida, Ryota Takayama, Takahiro Watanabe, Takuya Morinaga, Yuji Suzuki, Kanako Fujisaki, Jun Yamada, Wataru Nozaki

Publication number: 20210016657Abstract: A fuel filler cap canister for a fuel filler cap includes: a base part having an attachment section attached to the cap and a communicating hole communicating with a fuel tank and formed in the base part; and a case member assembled to the base part and having an inner volumetric space provided with a spiral rib. The spiral rib extends from an opposing face of the case member facing the base part or an opposing face of the base part facing the case member toward the base part or the case member, respectively, and forms an adsorption path connecting the communicating hole and an atmosphere communicating hole formed in either one of a vicinity of a peripheral edge or substantially a central portion of the opposing face of the case member facing the base part. The adsorption path is filled with an adsorbing device.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 2, 2020Publication date: January 21, 2021Applicants: ROKI CO., LTD., HONDA MOTOR CO., LTD.Inventors: Kazuya MATSUURA, Takahiro TASHIRO, Takanari TOMIMOTO, Ryota MORINAGA, Katsuki HONMA, Shohei URANO

Patent number: 9109562Abstract: A fuel supply device supplies fuel from a fuel tank to an injector by driving a diaphragm pump by use of pressure variation within a crankcase. The diaphragm pump includes: a pump casing; a diaphragm partitioning the interior of the pump casing into a negative pressure chamber and a pump chamber; and a plunger connected to the diaphragm and reciprocatively movable to and from the pump chamber. A pressure receiving area over which the plunger receives, at its end surface in a plunger advancing/retracting direction, pressure from the pump chamber is set smaller than a pressure receiving area over which the diaphragm receives pressure from the negative pressure chamber in the advancing/retracting direction.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2013Date of Patent: August 18, 2015Assignee: HONDA MOTOR CO., LTDInventors: Toshihiro Tsutsui, Ryota Morinaga
