Abstract: A roll sheet with a continuous sheet wound in a roll form is rotated in a forward direction to supply the sheet to a printing unit. A sensor whose output is changed in accordance with a distance between the sensor and the sheet is used. A rotation direction of the roll sheet is switched from an opposite direction to the forward direction on the basis of the output of the sensor during rotation of the roll sheet in the opposite direction.

Abstract: A dielectric ceramic composition comprises a main component composed of at least one selected from BaTiO3, (Ba, Ca)TiO3, (Ba, Sr)TiO3 and (Ba, Ca, Sr)TiO3, an oxide of rare earth element and a composite compound including Ba. 9 to 13 mol of the composite compound in terms of composite compound is included in the dielectric composition. The dielectric ceramic composition includes surface diffusion particles having surface diffusion structure composed of non diffusion phase and diffusion phase including rare earth element. In the surface diffusion particle, when an area of the non diffusion phase is defined as S1, an area of the diffusion phase is defined as S2, S1 and S2 satisfy a relation of S1:S2=20:80 to 30:70 (Note that, except S1=30 and S2=70), when an average concentration of the rare earth element in the surface diffusion particle is defined as C, S2 and C satisfy a relation of 4.8?S2×C?5.8.

Abstract: An equipment adjusting leg is provided which is lightweight and which can achieve cost reduction without decreasing impact-resistant strength. The impact-resistant strength is secured and the light weight is achieved by the structure of the equipment adjusting leg, which comprises: a leg 10 which is provided in the lower part of an external frame of the equipment in a manner capable of moving up and down, and of which lower part is formed as a ground contact part 16 and of which upper part is formed as a sliding shaft 17 with a concavo-convex part 18 like, for example, a screw, provided around the periphery of the sliding shaft 17; an element for locking the up-and-down movements of the leg; and an element for releasing the lock; wherein the sliding shaft 17 of the leg 10 is constructed by using a resin with excellent mechanical strength, such as polycarbonate, to construct a peripheral part, and by using an elongated metallic member (a metal shaft 24) as a core.

Abstract: An equipment adjusting leg is provided concerning which the engagement of a concavo-convex part of a screw of the leg with a locking element is barely loosened when a fine adjustment is made. The adjusting leg comprises: a leg 10 which is provided in the lower part of an external frame of the equipment in a manner capable of moving up and down, and the lower part of which is formed as a ground contact part 16 and the upper part of which is formed as a sliding shaft 17 with a screw-like concavo-convex part 18 provided around its periphery; an element for locking the up-and-down movements of the leg; and an element for releasing the lock; wherein the concavo-convex part 18 of the leg 10 is formed in a trapezoidal shape so that the engagement of the concavo-convex part of the screw of the leg 10 with the locking element is barely loosened when a fine adjustment is made.
