Abstract: An indoor air-conditioning unit 10 which can effectively deactivate allergens includes an intake grill 11 for drawing in indoor air. Indoor heat exchangers 13, 14, and 15 exchange heat between air drawn in from the intake grill 11 and a refrigerant to thereby cool or heat the air. A diffuser 16 returns the air which has been heat-exchanged with the indoor heat exchangers 13, 14, 15, back into the room. A cross-flow fan 17 blows air which has been drawn in from the inlet and heat exchanged from the diffuser 16 into the room. An allergen deactivation filter 18 is arranged in an internal space 5 through which the air flows and supports an allergen deactivation enzyme. An enzyme activation device maintains the internal space S in an atmosphere for activating the allergen deactivation enzyme.

Abstract: A connector includes: a first connector body having a plurality of first lead terminals soldered onto a first wiring board; a second connector body having a plurality of second lead terminals soldered onto a second wiring board; a screw member; and a fastening member engageable to the screw member. The first connector body and the second connector body are engaged with each other to bring the first lead terminals and the second lead terminals into contact such that the first lead terminals and the second terminals electrically connect the first wiring board to the second wiring board. The first and second wiring boards and the first and second connector bodies are integrally fastened together by engaging the screw member to the fastening member.

Abstract: The technique of the invention efficiently eliminates non-required portions of image data from the subject of character recognition and specifies connection of recognition areas in a linguistically correct order, thus enhancing the accuracy of recognition. The procedure of the invention specifies multiple recognition areas in image data corresponding to one page of a document and carries out character recognition in each of the multiple recognition areas. The procedure selects one of the multiple recognition areas as a target processing area and determines which of a side recognition area located on a left side or a right side of the target processing area and a lower recognition area located below the target processing area is a linguistic continuance of the target processing area. For example, a recognition frame FR4 is set to the target processing area. The last line of the recognition frame FR4 is ended with a punctuation symbol.
