An apparatus that utilizes high-pressure air therein includes a main body, an air pipe configured to be supplied with high-pressure air from a high-pressure air supply source and supply the high-pressure air into the main body, a filter configured to remove oil contained in the high-pressure air flowing through the air pipe, a gas detector configured to detect an organic gas derived from oil and contained in the high-pressure air that has passed through the filter, and a reporting unit configured to report, when the gas detector detects the organic gas contained in the high-pressure air, that the high-pressure air is mixed with the oil.

Apparatus utilizing high-pressure air

A cutting apparatus includes a management unit having a measuring unit for measuring an amount of light emitted from a light emitter and received by a light receiver while a cutting blade is positioned between the light emitter and the light receiver, a measured waveform forming section for forming a measured waveform representing the configuration of an outer circumferential region of the cutting blade, and an ideal waveform recognizing section for recognizing one of the comparative waveforms that has the greatest number of waveform regions similar to the measured waveform as an ideal waveform, a difference calculating section for calculating the area of a region where there is a difference between the measured waveform and the ideal waveform.

Cutting apparatus capable of detecting configuration abnormalities of a cutting blade

To provide an aqueous ink having excellent ejection stability and capable of recording an image having excellent abrasion resistance and the like. An aqueous ink for ink jet containing a resin particle, in which the resin particle is formed of a first resin and a second resin, each having a carboxylic acid group, the first resin is a polyester resin not having a crosslinked structure, the second resin is at least one of a polyester resin and an acrylic resin having a crosslinked structure, and the crosslinked structure of the first resin and the second resin is an alkylene oxide group having a repetition number of 1 to 9.

Aqueous ink, ink cartridge, ink jet recording method and method for producing aqueous ink

To provide an aqueous ink having excellent storage stability and capable of recording an image having excellent abrasion resistance and the like. An aqueous ink for ink jet containing a resin particle, in which the resin particle is formed of a polyester resin having a carboxylic acid group, and an amount of carboxylic acid groups present on particle surfaces of the resin particle is 0.3 times or more to 0.8 times or less in terms of molar ratio with respect to all of the carboxylic acid groups in the polyester resin having the carboxylic acid group.

An aqueous ink for ink jet, the aqueous ink containing a pigment and a resin. The pigment is impregnated with a compound having a structure in which at least two structures each represented by General Formula (1) are bonded by a glycoside bond. 

Aqueous ink, ink cartridge, and ink jet recording method

Provided is an aqueous ink capable of recording an image achieving a high level of both of color developability and lightfastness. The aqueous ink includes a first pigment and a second pigment. The first pigment is C.I. Pigment Yellow 213, and the second pigment is at least one selected from the group consisting of C.I. Pigment Yellows 93, 128, 138, 151, 155, 180, and 215. The content A (% by mass) of the first pigment and the content B (% by mass) of the second pigment based on a total mass of the ink satisfy a relationship of 0.1&#x2266;A/(A+B)&#x2266;0.9. The ink further includes a water-soluble organic solvent having an SP value (unit: (cal/cm)) determined by Fedors' method of 11.0 or more and 16.0 or less.
