    Abstract: PURPOSE:To realize an autofocus camera which achieves photographing at the very closest distance by setting a photographic optical system as usual when a focal distance is within the autofocus-available range, and focusing the photographic optical system when it is a specific closest distance other than the available range. CONSTITUTION:When an object is photographed within the ordinary autofocus range, a photographer carries out photographing without turning on a close-up mode selecting switch S. When a range-finding distance is equal to or more than 1m, the focal point of the lens L is adjusted according to the result of the operation which is based on the output of the range-finder 1, and a shutter is opened and closed. On the other hand, when the object is photographed, for example, at the distance of 0.3m, a release button is depressed after the switch S is turned on. Thus, a CPU 2 operates the position of the movement of the lens, and moves the lens; when the distance of the object from the camera, which is range-found, matches 0.3m, the CPU 2 opens and closes the shutter by means of a shutter control circuit 3, and carries out photographing.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To make the required space small and obtain the high waterproof performance by providing a driven member moved in the perpendicular direction to the moving direction of an operating member and forming a drain groove along the sliding face of the operating member. CONSTITUTION:When a finger is pressed on the projection 3a of an operating member 3 and the rightward force is applied, a sphere 5 escapes from a recess 2a, and the member 3 starts to be moved to the right. The head of a driven member 7 is moved along the slant face between cam faces 3b and 3c, the member 7 is depressed, and its axial section is gradually extruded to the outside of a housing room of the member 3. If the finger is removed from the projection 3a when the sphere 5 drops in a recess 2b, the member 3 is stopped, and the protruded quantity of the axial section of the member 7 becomes the length determined by the cam face 3c. A drain groove 1a is formed on the wall face of the housing room of the member 3, and the water accumulated in spaces S1 and S2 passes the groove 1a and flows out to the opening 1b of an outer cover 1.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To eliminate troubles such that a storage sheet is broken and a feed roller is damaged, by providing such as arrangement that a paper feed cassette is not moved when a sheet feed means makes into contact with a sheet so that a fed sheet is prevented from rushing out from the position of the device even though a lock means is erroneously released. CONSTITUTION:Resilient rollers 120a among paper feed rollers 120 are made of materials such as rubber, having a large frictional coefficient so that the frictional force of the rollers with respect to a sheet P making into contact with the same is greater than the force of a spring for returning a cassette. In this arrangement, even though the positioning of a paper cassette 17 is released by moving a cassette knob 18 for example, downward, there is no such a risk that the paper feed cassette is pushed out by the returning force of the cassette returning spring 34 and therefore the cassette is separated away from from the position of the device, since the paper feed rollers 120 make into contact with the sheets P stored in the paper feed cassette 17 at the position of the device. Accordingly it is possible to prevent the sheets P stored in the cassette from being broken, and to prevent the paper feed rollers from being damaged.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To reduce load at the time of moving a carriage, enable a high-speed scanning movement and contrive a longer useful life and a maintenance-free mechanism, by using a dynamic-pressure bearing at a carriage bearing part, and providing a lubricant-supplying member at a position to which a carriage is selectively brought on a guide shaft. CONSTITUTION:Under the condition where a head unit 1 is located at a home position, a right end part of a carriage 2 makes contact with the supplying member 5 at the right end, and the dynamic-pressure bearing 25 is supplied with a lubricant. When the unit is moved to a stand-by position for recording, a left side part thereof makes contact with the supplying member 5 on the opposite side, and a lubricant is supplied. The bearing 25 has an inner peripheral surface provided with a plurality of oblique grooves, with the direction of inclination of each of the groove being opposite to that of the adjacent groove. When the carriage 2 is moved in the direction of arrow A, a positive pressure is generated relative to the surface of a guide shaft 3 by the combinations of the grooves 251-252 and 253-254, and when the carriage 2 is moved in the direction of arrow B, a positive pressure is also generated by the combinations of the grooves 252-253 and 254-255. Accordingly, the carriage 2 is moved extremely smoothly under a low load and a small load variations.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To prevent the damage of the O-ring of a piston, by providing a liquid inflow port out of a range within which a piston moves and opening the inflow valve for hermetically closing the inflow port after predetermined negative pressure has been generated by the movement of the piston over predetermined quantity. CONSTITUTION:A piston shaft 153 and a piston 154 are pushed down against a spring 165 by the counterclockwise rotation of a piston-driving lever 233 but a liquid inflow port 150-a is hermetically closed by an inflow valve 160 receiving the force of a spring 162 and an outflow port 154-a is also hermetically closed by an outflow valve 158 receiving the force of a leaf spring 159. Further, because air-tightness is held by O-rings 156, 157, negative pressure is generated in a cylinder 150. When a piston-driving lever 223 releases the engagement of a cap-holding lever 116 and a cap lever 113, the projection of a piston shaft 153 is engaged with the projection 161-a of a valve support 116 to push down the valve support 116 and the inflow valve 160 is separated from the seat 150-c of the cylinder 150 to open the inflow port 150-a.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To obtain the remaining number of frames directly as information when the remaining number of frames becomes small by counting down from a specific value when the remaining number of frames reaches the specified value. CONSTITUTION:A counter 5 counts up every time a pulse inputted until the remaining number of frames reaches the specified value. When the counted value of the counter circuit 5 becomes ''31'', a coincidence signal is outputted to a specified value setting circuit 9 and the counter circuit 5. The specified value setting circuit 9 receives the coincidence signal and presets the count contents of the counter circuit 5 to the specified value, i.e. ''5''. The counter circuit 5, on the other hand, starts counting down. Further, the coincidence signals outputted to a display switching circuit 7, which them switches the display pattern of a liquid crystal display device 8 (e.g. enlarged display) by inputting the coincidence signal.
