An image reading apparatus includes a reading unit, a conveyance unit configured to convey the sheet, a support portion configured to support the conveyance unit openably and movably with respect to the reading unit in a vertical direction between an upper position and a lower position, a bundled wire transmitting a signal or electric power to the conveyance unit, and a cover portion configured to cover the bundled wire. The cover portion includes a first cover member provided on the conveyance unit and a second cover member provided movably in the vertical direction with respect to the reading unit. A whole length of the cover portion in the vertical direction in a case where the conveyance unit is located at the upper position is longer than a whole length of the cover portion in a case where the conveyance unit is located at the lower position.

A printing apparatus includes a feeding units, a detecting unit, a designating unit, and a control unit. The detecting unit detects a respective operation on each of the feeding units. The designating unit designates, in response to a user operation via a display, which of the feeding units is to be used for printing. The control unit executes, in response to a command to execute predetermined printing, a process based on a first feeding unit on which an operation has been last detected by the detecting unit and a second feeding unit designated by the designating unit. Based on that the first and second feeding units are different, the control unit displays, as the process, a predetermined screen on the display. Based on that the first and second feeding units are the same, the control unit executes, as the process, the predetermined printing on a second feeding unit fed sheet.

An terminal apparatus includes a terminal communication section that transmits image data to a projector, an image data generating section that generates comparison result image data representing a result of comparison between a post-update image data and a pre-update image data, and an evaluation section that evaluates whether or not the comparison result image data generated by the image data generating section represents that there is no difference between the pre-update image data and the post-update image data. The evaluation section evaluates the comparison result image data whenever a frame cycle elapses in a case where the comparison result image data represents that there is difference and evaluates the comparison result image data after a period longer than the frame cycle elapses in a case where the comparison result image data represents that there is no difference between the pre-update image data and the post-update image data.

A power switching device includes a translation mechanism, an active mechanism, and a transmission mechanism. The translation mechanism includes a rack. The active mechanism includes an active gear and a driver. The active gear connects with a first functional mechanism, and the driver drives the active gear to rotate in a first direction or a second direction. The transmission mechanism connects with a second functional mechanism. The active gear is switched between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the active gear is connected to the transmission mechanism and rotates in the first direction to drive the transmission mechanism to rotate, thereby driving the second functional mechanism to operate. In the second position, the active gear meshes with the rack and rotates in the first direction or the second direction to reciprocate on the rack so as to drive the first functional mechanism to operate.

A moving body support apparatus including a main shaft, a sub-shaft that is arranged to be spaced from the main shaft, and a carriage that moves along the main shaft while causing a contact surface to be in contact with the sub-shaft is provided. A distance between the main shaft and the sub-shaft changes along a moving direction of the moving body. A printing apparatus including the moving body support apparatus is also provided.
