Abstract: An inkjet ink that shows only a small amount of discoloration over time and is capable of printing with a stable color, not only when printed on a surface of a print object having a relatively low ink permeability, but also when printed on a surface of a print object having a relatively high ink permeability, and provide a printed item including a printed area printed using the inkjet ink. A gray ink according to the present embodiment is an edible inkjet ink which contains at least a first colorant which is a food dye and a second colorant which is a food dye, and the first colorant is at least one of Red No. 3, Red No. 40, Red No. 104, Red No. 105, and Red No. 106.

Abstract: A paper feeder includes a processor configured to, in a case of lowering a paper feed tray on which paper is placed in an accommodation section that accommodates paper and replenishing paper, the paper feed tray being controlled to be raised/lowered in a case of replenishing paper, control a lowering amount of the paper feed tray according to a number of sheets of paper to be replenished.

Abstract: A new and/or novel image analysis technique for quantitative assessment of motion-based testing for injury in a patient using universally available and affordable devices and techniques is provided and disclosed. A video of a test being performed can be processed to track the motion of markers and/or bodily landmarks in two or more dimensions to quantitatively describe motion, thereby removing the subjective aspects typically associated with motion-based testing. In an example, the pivot shift test is a commonly used test for evaluating rotational instability of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-deficient knee. The pivot shift test's subjective grading scale can be quantified and refined using image analysis techniques.

Abstract: A blue ink-jet ink that improves lightfastness of the same while maintaining its blue print color and a tablet including a part printed with the blue ink-jet ink. The blue ink-jet ink according to the present embodiment is an edible ink-jet that contains Brilliant Blue FCF (Blue No. 1 Colorant) and New Coccine (Red No. 102 Colorant) as colorants.

Abstract: An inkjet ink in which a food color containing at least sodium copper chlorophyllin and a pigment other than sodium copper chlorophyllin is dispersed in a dispersion medium containing propylene glycol, and which prevents the occurrence of precipitation of the pigment components or other components even when the inkjet ink is stored for a long period of time, and there is also provided a tablet having a print pattern printed by the inkjet ink. The inkjet ink of the present embodiment, which is edible, comprises a food color containing at least sodium copper chlorophyllin and a pigment other than sodium copper chlorophyllin, and a dispersion medium containing propylene glycol, and has a propylene glycol content in the range of 0.001 mass % or more and 19 mass % or less relative to the total mass of the inkjet ink.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an image forming apparatus body provided with an image formation unit and plural paper feeding apparatuses. Paper conveyance paths of the plural paper feeding apparatuses are daisy-chained with respect to the image forming apparatus body. An output unit outputs an instruction signal which instructs a specified paper feeding apparatus to start feeding a paper. A paper feed unit feeds the paper upon receipt of the instruction signal. A recognition unit recognizes a delay time until an analysis that the instruction signal is a paper feed instruction. A correction unit corrects an output timing of the instruction signal based on the delay time.

Abstract: In the working machine of the present invention, a tank mounting portion is provided in an upper rotating body, a fuel tank is mounted removably in the tank mounting portion, and engaging portions are formed respectively on both body side of the working machine and the tank side so as to be engaged with each other when the tank is set in the tank mounting portion, thereby preventing in this engaged state the tank from moving in vertical directions and in substantially horizontal directions other than a removable direction of the tank, while a fuel tank dislodgment preventing means is provided to prevent movement in the removable direction of the tank when set in the tank mounting portion. In this working machine, the tank mounting structure can be reduced in both size and weight.

Abstract: A counterweight mounting structure for construction machine to which a counterweight is connected through a gap to an exterior constituting an upper rotating body is constituted such that a recessed groove is provided on an end on a connection side of the counterweight, an elastic soundproof material is installed in the recessed groove, and the soundproof material protruding from the recessed groove is brought in contact with, and pressed against an end on the connection side of the exterior when the counterweight is mounted. As a result, there is provided the counterweight mounting structure whose soundproof capability does not decrease even after the counterweight is mounted/dismounted.
