Cooling device and image forming apparatus
A cooling device includes a cooling member to absorb heat from a conveyed sheet and a plurality of cooling units to cool the cooling member. Each of the cooling units includes a coolant channel through which a coolant flows and a liquid-cooling device configured to cool the coolant that flows in the coolant channel. The coolant channels are disposed on or inside the cooling member and arranged side by side in a sheet conveyance direction. The coolant channels includes a downstream coolant channel being downstream from at least one of the plurality of coolant channels in the sheet conveyance direction, and an upstream coolant channel being upstream from the downstream coolant channel in the sheet conveyance direction. One of the liquid-cooling devices coupled to the downstream coolant channel has a cooling capacity higher than a cooling capacity of another of the liquid-cooling devices coupled to the upstream coolant channel.

Composite sheet manufacturing device and composite sheet manufacturing method
It is aimed to provide a composite sheet manufacturing device and a composite sheet manufacturing method capable of maintaining high cutting performance of a cutter by suppressing the adhesion of an adhesive of an adhesive surface to the cutter. A first sheet (42) introduced to between a cutter roller (2) and an anvil roller (3) is cut into strips (42a) while these rollers (2, 3) are rotated relative to each other, adhesive surfaces (a) of the strips (42a) are adhered onto a second sheet (43) for compounding, and at least one of a cutter (12) of the cutter roller (2) and the anvil roller (3) is cooled by a refrigerant by a cooling unit (20, 21).
