According to one embodiment, a disk device includes a recording medium of a disk form, a magnetic head, a housing, and a first protective member made of a resin. The recording medium includes a recording layer. The magnetic head is configured to read/write information from/to the recording medium. The housing includes a base provided with an inner chamber in which the recording medium and the magnetic head are accommodated, a cover that covers the inner chamber, and a welded part at which the base and the cover are welded to each other. The first protective member is located outside the housing, to cover at least part of the welded part.

According to one embodiment, an image processing apparatus includes an image reading device, a storage device, and a control unit. The image reading device reads an image on a sheet. The storage device stores information. The control unit that determines a detection area of an encoded image based on a teacher image which is an image read from a predetermined teacher sheet by the image reading device, records information indicating the detection area in the storage device, detects an encoded image in the detection area among the images read from a sheet to be read after the teacher sheet, and decodes the detected encoded image.

Image processing apparatus and method

An image printing apparatus includes a control section configured to receive original image data, analyze the original image data to acquire address information included in the original image data, and generate a two-dimensional code corresponding to the acquired address information. A printer is then controlled to print the generated two-dimensional code and the original image data.

An image forming apparatus comprises a printer configured to print the display image on a first surface of paper in a case of simplex printing; a curl suppression image determination section configured to determine, in simplex printing case, a printing position and a printing pattern of a curl suppression image for suppressing the curl of the paper caused by the display image based on an analysis result of a display image analysis section which analyzes the printing range and the density of the display image for each page; and a curl-preventive image addition setting section configured to set image information of the printing position and the printing pattern of the curl suppression image which is determined by the curl suppression image determination section and is supposed to be printed on a second surface of the paper with color erasable material by the printer section.

A flexible printed circuit assembly includes a flexible printed circuit board including a base portion and a relay portion extending from a first edge of the base portion and capable of being bent relative to the base portion, a first reinforcing member disposed at the relay portion, and a second reinforcing member attached to a first region of the base portion that includes a second edge opposite to the first edge and having an engaging portion. The first region of the base portion is capable of being folded back towards a second region of the base portion that includes the first edge, and the engaging portion of the second reinforcing member is capable of being engaged with the first reinforcing member.

A disk device is presented that includes a drive motor which has a rotatable hub fitted with a recording medium and rotates the recording medium, and a disk-shaped clamper attached to the hub to hold the recording medium. The clamper has a center aperture formed on a central axis of rotation of the drive motor and at least one positioning hole eccentric to the central axis of rotation. The clamper is fixed to the hub by a fixing screw driven into the hub through the center aperture. The hub has a support surface opposed to the clamper and an annular engaging groove formed in the support surface to be coaxial with the central axis of rotation and opposed to the positioning hole, the engaging groove being configured to be engaged with a fixing pin which is passed through the positioning hole.
