In a recording medium transporting device, an inter-shaft distance between a printing barrel that rotates and transports with gripping an end portion of a recording medium inwardly from an outer peripheral surface thereof and a first transporting barrel juncturally connected with the printing barrel is set to be a distance shorter than a sum of a radius of the printing barrel and a radius of the first transporting barrel, and an inter-shaft distance between the first transporting barrel and a second transporting barrel juncturally connected with the first transporting barrel is set to be a sum of the radius of the first transporting barrel and a radius of the second transporting barrel, which can suppress distortion of the recording medium and enables the first transporting barrel and the second transporting barrel to grip the end portion of the recording medium on the outer peripheral surface thereof, allowing stable transportation.

Recording medium transporting device and inkjet recording device

The present invention provides a medium-holding device capable of setting a suction pressure for each of various areas within a suction-holding surface, a medium-conveying device, and an inkjet recording device. In an embodiment of the invention, a cover is attached to a main body formed into a drum shape such that a surface of the cover functions as the suction-holding surface for a paper sheet. The cover has a plurality of suction apertures formed thereon from which suction apertures the paper sheet on the suction-holding surface is sucked. The suction apertures are arranged at a certain pitch. A specific suction aperture of them has a narrowing member attached thereto. The suction aperture having the narrowing member attached thereto has the suction pressure lowered. Therefore, by adjusting an arrangement of the specific suction aperture having the narrowing member attached thereto, the suction pressure can be partially controlled within the suction-holding surface.

Device for sterilization check

The present invention provides a structural unit, an endoscope and an adhering method that suppress deterioration in adhesive strength of an adhesive that adheres plural structural members that structure the endoscope. An imaging unitside of an adhesiveis covered by a first moisture-proof coating, and an obverse side of the adhesiveis covered by a second moisture-proof coating. Due thereto, in autoclave sterilization processing or the like, even if moisture passes along a wire portionand penetrates into the imaging unit, penetration of the moisture into the adhesive is suppressed by the first moisture-proof coating. Due thereto, deterioration in adhesive strength of the adhesive, that adheres plural structural members of the imaging unit, can be suppressed.

Mirror sequential data supplied from an RIP are temporarily stored as divided data in memory banks of an intermediate memory. Thereafter, the stored mirror sequential data are read in blocks. Then, a transposition processor transposes a matrix of the mirror sequential data into frame sequential data, and supplies the frame sequential data to a DMD controller.

A lens device is provided and includes: a lens barrel body; a lens frame swingably attached to the lens barrel body; and a swing mechanism being adapted to swing the lens frame so that alignment of an optical axis of the lens device can be effected, the swing mechanism including: an elastic unit interposed between the lens barrel body and the lens frame, the elastic unit biasing the lens barrel body and the lens frame in directions away from each other or in directions nearing to each other; and an advancing and retracting unit disposed at three points in a circumferential direction defined by the lens barrel body and the lens frame, the advancing and retracting unit advancing or retracting the lens frame relative to the lens barrel body against a bias force of the elastic unit to swing the lens frame.

Light modulated by a spatial light modulator is projected onto photosensitive material and the photosensitive material is exposed to light in a predetermined pattern. The action of the spatial light modulator is controlled so that the amount of the light projected onto the photosensitive material is changed in at least two stages according to the part of the photosensitive material.

Exposure method and exposure system

An imaging head faces an imaging surface and is relatively moved along the scanning surface in a predetermined scanning direction. The imaging head includes an imaging element group and an alteration section. The imaging element group is structured by a plurality of imaging elements, which are arranged two-dimensionally in a plane substantially parallel to the imaging surface. The imaging element group generates a group of image pixels at the imaging surface in a two-dimensional arrangement which is inclined, as a whole, at a predetermined inclination angle with respect to the scanning direction. The alteration section alters a number of image pixels in a direction which is inclined from the scanning direction by the inclination angle, on the basis of a difference between the predetermined inclination angle of the imaging element group and an actual inclination angle of the image pixel group.

Imaging head, imaging device and imaging method

When the adjusting shaft is rotated, the rotation of the adjusting shaft is transmitted to the rotationally movable barrel. The rotationally movable barrel rotates so that the rotationally movable barrel moves forward and backward along optical axis while rotating due to the interaction between the female screw portion formed in the distal end of the rotationally movable barrel and the male screw portion formed in the second flange portion of the fixed barrel. The forward and backward movement of the rotationally movable barrel along optical axis causes the rectilinearly movable barrel connected to the connecting portion of the rotationally movable barrel through the groove, to move forward and backward along optical axis. Accordingly, the CCD fixed to the rectilinearly movable barrel through the CCD carrier moves forward and backward along optical axis, thereby correcting the flange-back length.

Image pick-up device and adjustment mechanism

A laser exposure device at which alignment marks of a plate material on an exposure stage, which is moving in a direction opposite to a scanning direction, are read by a CCD camera mounted at a support gate, after which an imaging region, whose position is judged using the alignment marks, is exposed by a laser beam from a laser scanner. Here, a distance along the scanning direction from the CCD camera to the laser scanner is not less than a pitch of the alignment marks that are provided to respectively correspond to a trailing end and a leading end of the imaging region. According to this laser exposure device, even in a case in which a plurality of the imaging region is provided at a recording medium, an increase in a duration for forming images on the recording medium in accordance with an increase in imaging regions is prevented.

Exposure device

An image recording device, wherein deviation of an image-recording start position, which results from a difference in the amount of expansion and contraction based on temperature changes between a printing plate precursor, a rotating support, a mechanism for moving a recording head, and the like, is corrected so that an image can be recorded at a proper position. Temperaturenear the rotating support is obtained by a first temperature sensor, and temperaturenear the mechanism is obtained by a second temperature sensor. Then, an amount for correcting an image-recording start position is obtained from a correction table based on the temperaturesandand on a size of the printing plate precursor, and the number of drive pulses for correction corresponding to the obtained amount of correction is outputted to a drive motor of the mechanism.

Temperature compensating image recording device

An image exposure apparatus whose installation area and height are reduced and which enables smooth conveying of a printing plate. The apparatus comprises a cassette accommodating portion for the accommodation of printing plates therein, wherein the printing plates are loaded so as to be inclined at a predetermined angle, preferably at an angle near 90&deg;.
