A paper sheet processing device includes a housing, a control board disposed in the housing, and at least one conductive wire having a first end connected to the control board. The housing includes a first side wall and a second side wall connected to both ends of a bottom. At least one hole is provided at at least one of the first side wall and the second side wall so as to penetrate therethrough from inside of the housing to outside thereof. The hole allows a second end of the wire to extend from inside of the housing to outside thereof.

An example a media sensor device may comprise a light source positioned on a first side of a media pathway, a light path to receive a light from the light source and direct the light through a plurality of openings from the first side of the media pathway to a second side of the media pathway, and a light sensor on the second side of the media pathway to detect print media within the light path based on an intensity of light received from the light source, wherein a heated enclosure aligns the light sensor with the light path.

An electronic apparatus includes a first electronic device, a second electronic device, a bundled wire configured to supply at least one of an electric signal and electric power between the first and the second electronic devices, a frame member, a bundled wire guide, and a plurality of holding portions disposed at different positions on the wiring path. Each of the plurality of the holding portions includes a hinge portion connected to an upper portion of one of the pair of the side wall portions, a cover portion connected to the storage portion via the hinge portion, and an engagement portion to secure the cover portion in a closed position. The frame member includes a groove portion to which the bundled wire guide is fitted, and the bundled wire guide with the bundled wire stored is fitted into the groove portion.

Provided is a coating film transfer tool comprising an external cassette and an internal cassette housed in the external cassette. The internal cassette includes a supply portion configured to supply transfer tape having a coating film on substrate tape. A pressing and transferring portion is configured to transfer the coating film to a film receiving surface by pressing the transfer tape against the film receiving surface, a take-up portion is configured to take up the substrate tape after the coating film is transferred, and a rotation-in-conjunction mechanism is configured to rotate the supply portion and the take-up portion in conjunction with each other. The external cassette includes a button and an elastic member. The pressing and transferring portion sticks out of the external cassette by the button being pressed, and the pressing and transferring portion retracts into the external cassette by the pressing of the button being stopped.

An image reading apparatus includes a base unit, a conveyance roller to convey a sheet, a reading unit, an openable cover having a first contact portion, a guide member having a second contact portion, and an urging member. The guide member is rotatable between a first position where the reading unit is covered and a second position where the reading unit is exposed. The urging member urges the guide member in a direction from the first position toward the second position. During closing of the openable cover, the first contact portion presses the second contact portion and the guide member moves against an urging force of the urging member. A position of the guide member in a rotation direction in a state in which the openable cover is closed is determined by the first contact portion and the second contact portion coming into contact with each other.

A creel, such as may be used to supply fiberglass roving to a production process, includes an enclosure and a number of rotatable axles held within the enclosure. Each of the axles is of a shape and size to be inserted into a bobbin of roving. The creel also includes a drive mechanism coupled to each of the plurality of rotatable axles, the drive mechanism synchronizing the rotation of the axles. Bobbins of roving may be stacked on the axles and connected to provide continuous roving. As roving is drawn from the creel, the rate of rotation of the axles may be selected to counteract twisting of the roving that would otherwise result.

An image forming apparatus includes an ejection port, a stacker, a fan, and a duct. From the ejection port, a sheet is ejected to an ejection space in an ejection direction. The stacker stacks the sheet ejected from the ejection port, and the ejection space is disposed above the stacker. The fan is disposed outside the ejection space to suck air. The duct is connected to the fan. The duct has an exhaust port and a guide. The exhaust port is disposed above the ejection port and downstream from the ejection port in the ejection direction to exhaust the air from the exhaust port toward an upper face of the sheet in the ejection space. The guide connects the fan and the exhaust port to guide the air from the fan to the exhaust port.

A medium supply apparatus includes a box member, a bottom plate, and a rotary portion. A medium is stored inside the box member. The box member is inserted into and extracted from a body of an image forming apparatus. The bottom plate is disposed at a bottom portion of the box. member. The medium is placed on the bottom plate. The bottom plate is lifted up by an elastic force of an elastic member. The rotary portion is attached to a side wall, among walls of the box member, positioned on a lateral side with respect to a front side toward which the box member is extracted from the image forming apparatus. The rotary portion is rotatable about a location of attachment of the rotary portion. The rotary portion includes a rear portion and a front portion. The rear portion is positioned on a rear side, in contrast to the front side, with respect to the location of attachment. The rear portion is moved upward by a reaction force applied from the body when the box member is extracted. The front portion is positioned on the front side with respect to the location of attachment. The front portion is moved downward by rotation of the rotary portion due to upward movement of the rear portion to lower the bottom plate against the elastic force.

A feeder module for a multi-function product including a tray having a first axial direction and a second axial direction, at least two first sensors disposed at the tray in the second axial direction, a clamping member movably assembled to the tray in the second axial direction, and a control unit is provided. A document placed on the tray is driven to move into the multi-function product in the first axial direction. The clamping member has at least two shielding pieces moving in the second axial direction. The first sensors located on moving paths of the shielding pieces generate different sensing states according to whether the first sensors being shielded by the shielding pieces or not. A control unit electrically connected to the first sensors determines a width of the document according to the sensing states of the at least two first sensors.

A dispenser for holding a spool of coiled material utilizes a spindle having shoulder members at its ends respectively, and an elastic or resilient line extending between the shoulder members. The line traverses the outermost convolution of the coiled material, to resist free unwinding movement thereof. One of shoulder members is removable, to allow for insertion of a filled spool onto the spindle, for controlled dispensing of the coiled material. Simplicity in construction is realizable, along with compensation for gradual depletion of the coiled material as it is used up.
