A developing device of developing a latent image formed on an image bearer includes a developing roller, a developer regulator of a round-bar shape, and a holder. The developing roller carries developer. The developer regulator faces the developing roller to regulate an amount of the developer carried on a surface of the developing roller. The holder has a first hole, a second hole, and a projection. An end of the developer regulator is inserted in the first hole. A shaft at an end of the developing roller is inserted in the second hole. The projection protrudes toward an inside of the at least one of the first hole or the second hole and holds the end of the developer regulator and the shaft.

Developing device, process cartridge, and image forming apparatus including a holder which has projections within a hole accomodating a developer regulator or a developing roller

Connector for communication device

A powder collection container includes a container body, a conveying screw, a shaft portion, and a screw portion. The container body has a collection port from which powder is to flows into the container body. The conveying screw includes a shaft portion and a screw portion. The shaft portion extends in an axial direction of the conveying screw. The screw portion is wound around the shaft portion. The conveying screw rotates in a specified direction to convey the powder, which has flowed into the container body, toward an end of the conveying screw in the axial direction. The conveying screw includes a non-screw portion around which no screw portion is wound at least one position of the shaft portion between the collection port and the end of the conveying screw in the axial direction.

Micrometer

Connection device for communication

There is provided a measuring device (dial gauge) capable of performing measurement with a desired measuring force regardless of the posture of the measuring device. A dial gauge in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes a measuring force adjustment unit provided to a body case and capable of moving and being positioned and fixed in a direction substantially parallel to a moving direction of a spindle. A biasing means has one end directly or indirectly engaged with the spindle and the other end directly or indirectly engaged with the measuring force adjustment unit, and biases the spindle toward a tip end. The measuring force adjustment unit includes an external thread portion and a connection supporting member having one end screwed with the external thread portion and the other end coupled to the biasing means. The connection supporting member is screw-fed by rotationally operating the external thread portion in such a manner that a position of the connection supporting member is changed and fixed.

Multi-position tolerant contact gauge

A digital micrometer includes a main-body frame, a spindle, a thimble part, and a displacement detector that detects displacement of the spindle. The main-body frame includes a U-shaped frame part, and a spindle holding part provided on the other end side of the U-shaped frame part and having a length in a direction away from an anvil. The spindle is held by a spindle holding part, provided to be movable forward and backward in an axial direction with respect to the anvil, and includes a contactor on one end face. The main-body frame and the spindle are formed of a non-magnetic material.

Digital micrometer

A caliper measurement force detecting device includes a fixed unit that is securely attached to a slider so as not to displace relative to the slider; a movable unit that is provided to allow a slight displacement relative to the fixed unit along a direction parallel to a displacement direction of the slider; and pressure detectors that are arranged between the fixed unit and the movable unit and are provided so as to detect pressure applied in the direction parallel to the displacement direction of the slider. The movable unit includes an alternative finger hook that is arranged near a finger hook of the slider and serves as an operator that pushes and pulls the slider instead of the finger hook of the slider.

Caliper measurement force detecting device

A contact-separation mechanism includes a cam to rotate to move a contact-separation member to and from a counterpart member, a detection target to rotate together with the cam, and a detector to detect presence or absence of the detection target in a detection area of the detector, and circuitry. The cam has a reference range. The circuitry issues a rotation stop instruction of the cam after a target time elapses from passing of the reference range of the detection target through the detection area, and sets the target time based on a duration of an immediately preceding passing of the reference range through the detection area.

Contact-separation mechanism, fixing device, and image forming apparatus

A powder container is detachably attached to an image forming apparatus or a removable component in the image forming apparatus. The powder container includes an operation device and a rotation portion to rotate with operation of the operation device. The rotation portion is configured to contact a wall of the image forming apparatus or the removable component in a state in which the rotation portion maintains a posture in a direction of attachment of the powder container to the image forming apparatus or the removable component and is rotatable together with an engagement portion, which is opposed to the wall, of the image forming apparatus or the removable component while engaging the engagement portion, without hindering the powder container from moving in the direction of attachment, to restrain the powder container from moving in a direction of detachment from the image forming apparatus or the removable component.

Powder container, process cartridge, and image forming apparatus

A heat dissipation device includes: a plurality of heat receiving members disposed on a plurality of electronic components mounted on a substrate; a plurality of heat pipes fixed to the respective heat receiving members; and a heat sink mounted on the substrate and includes a plurality of openings formed corresponding to the heat pipes, wherein the heat pipes are inserted in the respective openings, and an inner diameter of the openings in a perpendicular direction to a surface of the substrate is larger than a diameter of the heat pipes in the perpendicular direction to the surface of the substrate.

Heat dissipation device and method of dissipating heat

A printed board includes: a depression formed in at least one surface of a board; an open hole formed in the board so as to penetrate the board from a bottom portion of the depression; and a conductor formed over an edge of an opening portion of the open hole and an inner surface of the open hole.

Printed board, electronic device, and method for manufacturing electronic device

Optical measurement head for coordinate measurement

An electronic device includes: a frame in which a unit is mounted on each of an upper row and a lower row of the frame; a rack configured to accommodate a plurality of frames; a back plate configured to close the rack on a rear side of the frame; and a duct configured to protrude from an insertion hole formed in the back plate, and form an opening with a hole edge of the insertion hole so as to discharge air passing through the unit on the lower row, the duct separating the unit on the upper row and the unit on the lower row from each other, wherein a cross-sectional area of the opening is adjusted by adjustment of a protrusion length from the insertion hole.

Electronic device and method for mounting unit

A shape measuring apparatus includes: an irradiating part configured to irradiate work with a linear line laser, the irradiating part including: a light source configured to produce light; and an optical element configured to linearly spread the light from the light source and generate the line laser, the optical element being constructed rotatably around an optical axis of the line laser; and an imaging part configured to image the line laser reflected by the work.
