Provided are an erasing implement and a writing implement equipped with the erasing implement, the erasing implement being capable of erasing writing regardless of the type of ink or lead of the writing implement, even writing with thermochromic ink or writing with pencil lead. The erasing implement is equipped with a first erasing member for erasing writing with thermochromic ink and a second erasing member for erasing writing of types other than thermochromic ink, and is configured by covering the outer surface of the second erasing member with the first erasing member.

Erasing implement and writing implement provided with erasing implement

The provided is an electrographic type label printer to properly supply a roll paper to the printer, having a transfer portion of a toner image, a fixing portion, an unwinder that feeds a roll paper, a rewinder that takes up the roll paper, a conveyance mechanism, and slack detection sensors that detect a slack degree of a medium between the transfer portion and the fixing portion. The conveyance mechanism has a conveyance belt to be rotated while mounting the medium on an upper surface facing the upper side, and an intake mechanism for tightly fitting the medium to the upper surface of the conveyance mechanism. When selecting a mode to convey the roll paper, a paper feed unit controller controls passing speed at which the medium passes through a pass-through portion provided in the fixing portion in accordance with output signals from the slack detection sensors.

A writing instrument () is provided with an erasing member () mounted to the rear end section of the writing instrument body () or to the front end section of a cap (). The end section has a fitting section () which is disposed on the center axis and a connection section () which connects the end section and the fitting section (). The erasing member () has a fitting hole () which receives both the fitting section () and the connection section (). When the erasing member () is mounted in position, a gap space () is formed around the connection section ().

Writing instrument with erasing member

A still picture video telephone apparatus adapted to transmit and receive, through a telephone line, still picture information from a television camera or the like, during a telephone call, includes a picture memory for storing a plurality of pages of picture information consisting of a camera-taken picture memory portion which rewrites still picture information input therein delivered from the television camera at intervals of a predetermined period, a self-prepared picture memory portion which stores desired still picture information until arrival of a rewrite instruction, and an incoming picture memory portion which sequentially rewrites still picture information therein upon receipt of still picture information when its storage regions are filled up, memory region input information for setting up regions for the self-prepared picture memory portion and the incoming picture memory portion within the picture memory, and picture memory control circuit for controlling still picture information input to and output from the picture memory based on the memory region information, wherein the picture memory is capable of storing a plurality pages of still picture information and allocating memory regions to the self-prepared picture memory portion and the incoming picture memory portion in various ways.

Apparatus for still picture video telephone apparatus and methods for

A still picture picturephone communication system for transmitting and receiving a still picture over a telephone circuit including a handshaking process wherein prior to still picture transmission, identification code data indicating a function of the picturephone set is transmitted and received, and a decision is made as to whether the still picture is being transmitted or not. A designation code of a desired response waiting time within an identification code data used at the time of handshaking is formed, and the response is delayed by a period of time corresponding to the response waiting time. A still picture data is directly transmitted and received without handshaking. In addition character data including character information and the like can be transmitted and received, and by manipulating the picturephone set of one party the picturephone set of the other party can be made to transmit picture data therefrom. Furthermore, the picture sent from the called party can be transferred to a third party.
