Publication number: 20200019117Abstract: A particle collecting device includes a vent pipe having a channel space through which air flows, a first air blower that delivers air including a particle at a first end of the vent pipe into the channel space, a collector that is disposed to block a channel in the channel space at an intermediate part of the vent pipe and that collects the particle included in the air delivered by the first air blower, and a second air blower that collects the air traveling through the collector at a second end of the vent pipe and that delivers the air outward from the channel space. The first and second air blowers operate such that a first pressure in a first channel space extending from the first air blower to the collector and a second pressure in a second channel space extending from the collector to the second air blower are maintained to have a relationship in which the second pressure<the first pressure?atmospheric pressure. The first and second channel spaces are included in the channel space of the vent pipe.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 6, 2019Publication date: January 16, 2020Applicant: FUJI XEROX CO., LTD.Inventors: Yuka NOMURA, Tetsuya KAWATANI, Kokichi KASAI, Kazunari ISHII, Ryosuke NARA, Satoshi TAKADA, Akira NUMAZAKI, Satoru NISHIKAWA

Patent number: 10517539Abstract: A processing system includes a sheet-shaped device, a determination unit, and a controller. The sheet-shaped device is attachable to a seat in an area from a seat surface of the seat to a surface of a backrest of the seat. The sheet-shaped device includes a sensor that detects whether a user is sitting on the seat surface and that detects whether the user is leaning against the surface of the backrest. The determination unit determines a type of sitting posture of the user by using a signal from the sensor. The controller controls a control target in accordance with the determined type of sitting posture.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2018Date of Patent: December 31, 2019Assignee: FUJI XEROX CO., LTD.Inventors: Yukari Sai, Mizuha Marumoto, Yukiko Miyakoshi, Yuka Nomura, Kengo Tokuchi

Patent number: 10359913Abstract: An approach is provided in which in which an information handling system displays multiple objects on a primary display layer (first display layer) of a display. The information handling system receives a selection of a first one of the objects and displays the first object on a second display layer of the display accordingly that is different than the primary display layer. Next, the information handling system receives a selection of a second one of the objects and displays the second object on a third display layer of the display that is different than the second display layer. In turn, the information handling system performs an action on the first object subsequent to displaying the second object on the second display layer.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2016Date of Patent: July 23, 2019Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Yuka Nomura, Naomi Zenge
