Abstract: Provided are an optical disc recording device and a recording signal generating device which enable to correct displacement between a reproducing position of a reproduction signal from a concave-convex mark preformed in an optical disc, and a recording position of second information to be recorded in synchronism with the reproduction signal, and stably and speedily record the second information. A digital signal processor (202) specifies a reproducing position in the concave-convex mark, using a reproduction signal and a channel clock. A recording signal generator (211) generates a recording signal alternately including a plurality of additionally recordable data, each of which includes second information and has a predetermined length, and a plurality of dummy data. A recording position controller (110) detects a recording position displacement amount representing a displacement amount between the reproducing position and a recording position of the additionally recordable data, using the reproducing position and the reading signal. A recording length adjustor (208) increases or decreases the recording length of dummy data in accordance with the recording position displacement amount.

Abstract: The invention relates to an automatic extinguisher usable mainly for protecting the electrical boxes of electrical equipment and machinery, consisting of a base (3) and a body (8) that are connected but separable, which facilitates and simplifies monitoring and maintenance operations. In the main operating mode, after fire is detected by a probe (9), preferably located inside the protected element, the circuit board (4) activates a solenoid (27) integrated into an actuator (12), which causes the mobile end (21) to make contact with the O-ring (19), which becomes worn owing to the high electric current circulating at the contact point, releasing the extinguishing agent (11) contained inside the container (15) and which reaches the inside of the protected element through the discharge tubes (32), extinguishing the fire and also causing tripping of the circuit breaker of the electrical boxes of the electrical equipment or protected machinery and activation of lighting means (13), optical indicators (14) and acoustic indicators (34). The circuit board (4) may then transmit information to other external elements connected thereto. If necessary, the circuit breaker of the protected element can be reset, to which end the cutout switch (23) will be manually pressed first, which will cut the cutout (22), thereby eliminating the short circuit at the contact point. The auxiliary or secondary operating mode is activated if the main operating mode fails, the aforementioned information being applicable except that the movement of the mobile end (21) is produced by the softening of the thermoflux element (25) owing to the heat produced by the fire. Alternatively, the solenoid (27) may be replaced by an electroflux element that will be placed between the mobile piston (18) and the O-ring (19), but so that it does not impede the subsequent movement of the mobile end (21), due care being taken to ensure that the electroflux element remains electrically isolated from the O-ring (19). An electric current being circulated by the circuit board (4) through said electroflux element will cause the softening thereof, allowing movement of the mobile piston (18) and therefore of the mobile end (21).

Abstract: Arrangement positions of drain holes (25) are set to be present between first and second left lead plates (461, 462) that are connected to electrodes (42) of battery cells (41). The first and second left lead plates (461) and (462) are lead plates (45) that have a mutually adjacent arrangement relationship and have electrical potentials different from each other. It is possible to discharge water, which is present between these lead plates (45), to the outside of a housing case (20) from the inside of the housing case (20). Accordingly, even in the case that a support rib (231) is formed in the housing case (20), it is possible to drain water so that the water present between the lead plates (45) is removed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent an electrical connection between the lead plates (45), which may be caused when the lead plates (45) soak in water. That is, it is possible to efficiently drain the water, which has been introduced into the housing case (20), to the outside of the housing case (20) so that the leakage of electricity is prevented, and to make the number of the drain holes (25) for drainage be as small as possible.
