Alternatively and/or in addition there to, a coefficient of variation obtained by dividing a standard deviation of aspect ratios of shapes of the large number of cell aggregations by a mean value of the aspect ratios of the shapes of the large number of cell aggregations is 0.30 or less.

Abstract: A tire air pressure monitoring system for a vehicle includes: transmitters in wheels for transmitting a frame related to a tire air pressure at a regular transmission period; and an in-vehicle receiver having an electric wave reception unit that receives the frame and a specific electric wave from a mobile terminal and a control unit that detects a decrease in the tire air pressure. The control unit switches to a specific mode in which the electric wave reception unit receives the specific electric wave at every first intermittent period while a starting switch is off, and switches from the specific mode or a power saving mode to a monitoring mode in which the electric wave reception unit receives the frame at every second intermittent period while the starting switch is off.

The label peel-off unit moves between a third position where the label peel-off unit is opened and a fourth position where the label peel-off unit is closed with respect to the under cover. The interfering member abuts against an exterior member of the label peel-off unit. The interfered member is a part of the exterior member of the label peel-off unit, and protrudes toward an upstream side in the label conveyance direction and is at a position where the interfered member abuts against the interfering member.

Abstract: A liquid cartridge includes: a casing including a liquid chamber; a liquid supply portion; a deformable member; a movable member; and an urging member. An internal pressure of the chamber is reduced as liquid flows out of the chamber. The deformable member protrudes from the casing in a cross direction crossing forward and rearward directions and has an internal space in communication with the chamber. The deformable member has such an elasticity that a dimension thereof in the cross direction becomes smaller as the internal pressure of the chamber is reduced. The movable member includes a detection portion, and a contact portion contacting the deformable member. The contact portion is in contact with the deformable member and disposed at one of positions further forward and further rearward relative to the deformable member. The urging member urges the movable member to move the contact portion toward the deformable member.

Abstract: The controller obtains temperature data based on a temperature sensor when the controller is in an energized state and stores temperature history information of the obtained temperature data in a storage. The controller determines whether there occurs a non-energized state after a previous purge operation, estimates the temperature data in the non-energized state based on the temperature history information when the non-energized state exists after previous execution of the purge operation, and sets a purge condition of a next purge operation based on an elapsed time from previous execution of the purge operation and the temperature history information stored in the storage, sets the purge condition based on the estimated temperature data in the non-energized state in addition to the elapsed time and the temperature history information when there exists the non-energized state after the previous execution of the purge operation.
