Abstract: The present invention relates to a coating particle containing a nuclear particle covered with a coating layer, and in the coating particle, the coating layer is a layer containing hydroxyalkyl cellulose and a binder.

Abstract: Hydroxypropyl cellulose particles which contain 50-100 weight % of particles with a particle size that is larger than 150 ?m and not larger than 355 ?m.

Abstract: The image forming apparatus includes an image forming section; a conveyance path to convey a recording medium to the image forming section; a drawer unit including the conveyance path and configured to be pulled out relative to the apparatus; an electrical cable to electrically connect the drawer unit and an interior of the apparatus even when the drawer unit is pulled out from the apparatus; and a cable holder (a first regulating member) to ensure that that the cable is securely prevented from protruding from the drawer unit. According to the present invention, the electric cable is prevented from running off from the drawer unit due to the folding of the cable caused by the regulating member, so that the electric cable is prevented from getting hung up on the parts disposed in the body.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus having a drawer unit that includes therein a paper-feeding conveying path for conveying a recording medium conveyed from a paper feeding unit on which the recording media are stacked to an image forming unit and/or a discharge conveying path for conveying the recording medium on which an image has been formed to a discharging unit, and be drawn out from an apparatus main body; a lock unit that locks the drawer unit to the apparatus main body; a straddle detecting unit that detects whether the recording medium straddles a conveying path in the apparatus main body and a conveying path in the drawer unit; and a controller that controls the lock unit to lock the drawer unit to the apparatus main body when the straddle detecting unit detects the straddle.

Abstract: A coating agent containing a hydroxyalkyl cellulose in which a content of hydroxyalkoxy groups within the hydroxyalkyl cellulose is within a range of 40 to 50% by mass, preferably a coating agent containing a hydroxyalkyl cellulose in which the content of hydroxyalkoxy groups is within a range of 40 to 50% by mass and also a viscosity of 2% aqueous solution at 20° C. is within a range of 3.0 to 5.9 mPa·s; and a solid preparation coated with the coating agent.
