Publication number: 20070252866Abstract: To provide a suction recovery method of an ink jet printing apparatus by which ink can be securely filled to an ink flow path and a nozzle while minimizing an amount of ink discharge during a suction recovery to prevent an adverse effect such as invited bubbles. The suction recovery method firstly performs the first suction step for generating a negative pressure for sucking a filter section for separating bubbles from the filter section. Thereafter, the second suction step is performed to generate a negative pressure for sucking an ink in the ink flow path and a large nozzle. Thereafter, the third suction step is performed to suck ink from a small nozzle.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 2007Publication date: November 1, 2007Applicant: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Satoshi KUDO, Yukuo Yamaguchi

Patent number: 7192127Abstract: A joint member is made of an elastic member whose cross sectional shape is an almost M-character shape and which has: an inserting portion formed with an opening portion and a slit; an outer edge portion as an outer peripheral portion of the joint member; and a supporting fixing portion for coupling the inserting portion and the outer edge portion on the upper portion side. A cross sectional shape of an opening of the opening portion is a shape of a circular cone frustum in which the opening and a bottom surface are coupled via an inclined surface. The slit is formed in the rectangular bottom surface. The joint member is sandwiched between a casing and a pressing plate. The inserting portion and the supporting fixing portion exist in planes which are different in the inserting direction of a liquid supply needle.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2004Date of Patent: March 20, 2007Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Kiyomitsu Kudo, Junji Shimoda, Akira Tsujimoto, Satoshi Kudo, Toru Suzuki

Publication number: 20070031536Abstract: The present invention relates to a fermented food and process for producing the same, in which the food contains a sufficient amount of conjugated fatty acid and is excellent in digestivity and absorbability, physiological effects, safety, sensory properties, and the like. The fermented food is obtained by adding a conjugated fatty acid in the form of a glyceride to a fermentation medium either before or after the fermentation by the fermenting bacterium, and the final fermented food product contains such conjugated fatty acid in the form of a glyceride. The conjugated fatty acid of the glyceride type is a glyceride derivative containing a fatty acid having conjugated double bonds (a conjugated fatty acid) as its constituent fatty acid, and sustains many of useful physiological activities of the conjugated fatty acid while coping with the inhibitory action of free fatty acids to the fermenting bacterium.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 18, 2006Publication date: February 8, 2007Applicant: KABUSHIKI KAISHA YAKULT HONSHAInventors: Satoshi Kudo, Kanako Shimizu, Hideyuki Yamatoya, Naomi Mizusawa

Publication number: 20060284944Abstract: The present invention solves problems attributable to color mixing occurring at a region where an ink container containing three or more different inks and an inkjet printing head are connected as a result of repetition of connection and disconnection of the components. An ink cartridge has a joint section which is connected to a printing head unit when the inks are supplied to the printing head unit. The printing head unit performs printing by ejecting the cyan, magenta, and yellow inks. At the joint section, a supplying part for the cyan ink, a supplying part for the magenta ink, and a supplying part for the yellow ink are arranged in the order listed. The interval between the yellow ink supplying part and the magenta ink supplying part is greater than the interval between the cyan ink supplying part and the magenta ink supplying part.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 19, 2005Publication date: December 21, 2006Applicant: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Kiyomitsu Kudo, Akira Tsujimoto, Satoshi Kudo, Toru Suzuki

Publication number: 20060232647Abstract: The present invention makes it possible to improve the alignment accuracy of the Joint section of an ink cartridge with an ink supply route of an inkjet head. Based on this, the present invention provides an ink cartridge capable of preventing ink leakage with high reliability and constructed inexpensively in a reduced size and particularly suitable for a pit-in system. To attain this, distance (L1) is set to be shorter than distance (L2), where the distance (L1) is the one between a joint section (145) positioned in the proximity of a front surface (1A) of an ink cartridge (1) and an engage reference portion (135) serving as a reference position when the ink cartridge (1) is installed in the inkjet printing apparatus; and the distance (L2) is the one between the front surface (1A) of the ink cartridge (1) and the engage reference portion (135).Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2005Publication date: October 19, 2006Inventors: Toru Suzuki, Kiyomitsu Kudo, Satoshi Kudo, Akira Tsujimoto
