20090060569 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus including a plurality of image forming cartridges removably mounted to an apparatus body one above the other is disclosed. Structural members each partition off a space between nearby image forming cartridges mounted to the apparatus body. The apparatus is capable of obviating banding ascribable to the vibration of the cartridges. | 03-05-2009 |
20100329733 | IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS - An image forming apparatus including a plurality of image forming cartridges removably mounted to an apparatus body one above the other is disclosed. Structural members each partition off a space between nearby image forming cartridges mounted to the apparatus body. The apparatus is capable of obviating banding ascribable to the vibration of the cartridges. | 12-30-2010 |
20110069137 | OPTICAL SCANNER AND IMAGING APPARATUS USING THE SAME - An optical scanner includes a light source modulated based on image data, an optical deflection and scanning part deflecting a light beam emitted from the light source, and a scanning and imaging optical system condensing the deflected light beam toward a scanning surface so as to form a light spot optically scanning the scanning surface. The effective scanning region of the scanning surface is divided into a plurality of regions according to a scanning line curving characteristic. Suitable image data for optically scanning the divided regions are selected from image data of a plurality of image lines every time the light spot optically scans the effective scanning region, so that the image data of each of the image lines is written with scanning line curving being corrected. | 03-24-2011 |

Structural members each partition off a space between nearby image forming cartridges mounted to the apparatus body. The apparatus is capable of obviating banding ascribable to the vibration of the cartridges. | 10-13-2011 |
20130003401 | VEHICLE LIGHTING UNIT - A vehicle lighting unit can be configured to allow the brightnesses of light observed through vertically arranged lenses to substantially match when the lenses are viewed from a certain viewpoint in front of the vehicle. The vehicle lighting unit can include: a first lens on a first upper optical axis; a second lens on a second lower optical axis; a semiconductor light-emitting device; a first revolved ellipsoidal reflector; a shade; a second revolved ellipsoidal reflector; and a third reflector. The third reflector is inclined at an inclination angle with respect to the horizontal plane adjusted such that light emitted from the semiconductor light-emitting device, reflected by the second reflector, focused at a second focal point of the second reflector, reflected by the third reflector, and passing through the second lens is directed in a direction at a predetermined upward angle with respect to the horizontal plane. | 01-03-2013 |
20150278459 | DIAGNOSTIC PROCESS ANALYSIS SYSTEM - Upon evaluation of a value of a diagnostic process, the value of a diagnostic process is evaluated not based on a simple cost but on a cost required for all processes of a patient who was in the diagnostic process through a follow-up survey. Diagnostic processes that are not relevant to a target diagnostic process are eliminated, clustering is performed on patients to divide the patients into clinically meaningful homogeneous groups, and the target diagnostic process is evaluated for each of the homogeneous groups. For the purpose, importance scores of data pieces of the clinical data are calculated and the relevant data is output using the output result of the medical knowledge extraction unit, clustering is performed on patients in the clinical data, and a clinical index and a cost are output for each of the clusters. | 10-01-2015 |
20150320362 | EXERCISE EFFECT ANALYSIS SYSTEM - The invention is an exercise effect analysis system for analyzing and displaying an exercise effect on the basis of lung function information of a user. The exercise effect analysis system includes: an input unit for inputting at least exercise information and lung age information of the user; an exercise amount change calculation unit for calculating an exercise amount change amount that is a difference between first exercise information and second exercise information inputted in the input unit; a lung age change calculation unit for calculating a lung age change amount that is a difference between first lung age information and second lung age information; and an output unit for displaying the lung age change amount and at least one of the exercise information of the user and the exercise amount change amount. | 11-12-2015 |
20150351702 | DEVICE FOR ASSESSING DROWSINESS LEVEL - Drowsiness of a human may be caused by an underlying disease such as sleep apnea syndrome in some cases, but not in other cases. Regardless of the cause, drowsiness occurring during driving of a vehicle or the like may in some cases lead to a serious accident involving loss of life. Accordingly, a technique is needed to analyze drowsiness level with high accuracy so as to prevent accidents and ensure safety. To solve this problem, a device for assessing drowsiness level is provided for calculating a drowsiness level of a living body based on a core body temperature and a surface temperature in a peripheral region of the living body. | 12-10-2015 |
