  • Patent number: 11967838
    Abstract: An auxiliary power receiving device includes a power receiving unit, a notification unit, and a notification controlling unit. The power receiving unit receives power from a power transfer signal, which is used to supply power from a power transmitting device to a power receiving device. The notification unit may be provided on a main surface of a plate-shaped member. The notification controlling unit controls a notification performed by the notification unit in accordance with a power reception condition of the power transfer signal at the power receiving unit.

  • Publication number: 20240077815
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus having a detachable replenishment container includes an image bearing member, a developer container, a developing bearing member to develop an electrostatic latent image formed on the image bearing member into a toner image by using toner accommodated in the developer container, and a replenishment port through which the developer container can be replenished with toner from the replenishment container. A restriction member transitions between an allowance state in which the replenishment container and the replenishment port communicate with each and a restriction state in which the replenishment container and the replenishment port are not made to communicate with one another.

  • Patent number: 8186627
    Abstract: In order to control an attitude of a movable object having a flexible member (50) through an attitude maneuver, first, based on vibration of the flexible member at the time of the attitude maneuver, for example, a sampling function including no frequency components equal to or higher than a particular frequency is obtained. With the use of the sampling function, a control target value is created as a previously-frequency-shaping-type feedforward control law. Based on the control target value, attitude control data is created. The attitude control data can be used for the attitude maneuver with respect to the movable object.
