Publication number: 20240142319Abstract: A load sensor includes: an electrically-conductive elastic body; an electrically-conductive member having a linear shape and disposed so as to cross the electrically-conductive elastic body; and a dielectric body disposed between the electrically-conductive elastic body and the electrically-conductive member. A width of the electrically-conductive elastic body in a longitudinal direction of the electrically-conductive member is changed such that a relationship between a load and a contact area between the electrically-conductive elastic body and the electrically-conductive member via the dielectric body becomes close to a linear relationship.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 5, 2024Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Yodai MATSUMURA, Takashi MATSUMOTO, Susumu URAGAMI, Yuta MORIURA, Takafumi HAMANO, Hiroyuki FURUYA

Publication number: 20240109332Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a conveyance unit that conveys a recording medium in a first direction toward a recording head for ejecting a liquid, a tank including a containing chamber containing the liquid to be supplied to the recording head, and an injection port through which the liquid is injected into the containing chamber, the tank being disposed downstream of the conveyance unit in the first direction, a rotatable lever that holds a tank cap for closing the injection port, and a cover that rotates about a rotation shaft between an open position for exposing the lever and a closed position for covering the lever, the rotation shaft being disposed upstream of the conveyance unit in the first direction. The cover includes a sliding portion that is provided on a surface facing the lever and comes into contact with the lever while the cover is rotating toward the closed position.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 26, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Taiji Maruyama, Koya Iwakura, Hideaki Matsumura, Tetsu Hamano, Nobuhiro Toki, Daiju Takeda, Fumie Kameyama, Koki Shimada, Shota Asada, Ken Takenaga, Yusuke Tanaka, Yuta Araki, Atsushi Matsuyama, Yusuke Naratani, Kousuke Tanaka

Publication number: 20240085256Abstract: A load sensor is configured to detect, as change in capacitance, change, in a contact area between an electrically-conductive elastic body and a dielectric body, that occurs due to a load applied to an upper face of the load sensor. In the load sensor, a plurality of sensor parts each configured to detect the load are disposed so as to be arranged in a plane direction, and a buffer part configured to suppress displacement of the upper face due to the load applied to a first sensor part from being propagated to a second sensor part adjacent to the first sensor part is disposed between the first sensor part and the second sensor part.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 13, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Yodai MATSUMURA, Takashi MATSUMOTO, Susumu URAGAMI, Yuta MORIURA, Takafumi HAMANO, Hiroyuki FURUYA
