Inventor: HIRONO KAZUHISA
IPC: B41J21/00

Abstract: Operation of a double-line printing key, and selection of an upper printing line or a lower printing line causes the indication of subsequent input character data to follow either an upper printing line mark or a lower printing line mark, for example, on an LCD (19). When a printing key is operated, the character data following the upper printing line mark are stored in a first arrangement memory, and the data following the lower printing line mark are stored in a second arrangement memory. When the number of characters to be printed in the upper line is different from the number of characters to be printed in the lower line, space data are inserted into the printing line (upper or lower) which has the lesser number of characters so that the length of the upper printing line and the lower printing line become the same. Then, characters are printed on the upper and lower lines of the printing tape (9) based on the data stored in the first and the second arrangement memories so that characters in the lower printing line are directly below characters in the upper printing line.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for testing the tightness of filled vessels (17) closed by a sealed or welded cover (17) or similar vessels (17), which inside a vacuum bell (1) are subjected to a vacuum via a vacuum line (9) opening in the region above the cover of the vessel. In the case of a leak-proof vessel, the opening of the vacuum line (9) is automatically closed by the cover, which then arches upwards, while in the case of a leaky vessel (16) the opening remains unclosed. The differential pressure between the pressure set up in the interior of the vacuum bell (1) and the applied underpressure is determined in both cases. The use of such a test method or such a device leads to absolutely reliable monitoring of the tightness of a sealed or welded-on cover on a closed vessel, in particular a plastic beaker. The possibility is simultaneously ensured of using the test device universally. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed is a gamma camera in which separate detectors (112,114) are used to determine the position and energy of gamma radiation from a patient of interest. In a preferred mode, the camera comprises two adjacent, mutually perpendicular arrays (114,116) of parallel scintillating fibres positioned on the face of a scintillating crystal (112). Each of the fibres within the arrays conducts light to a photodetector (not shown) at one end, while an array of photodetectors monitors the total scintillated energy within the crystal (112). The arrays of fibres provide resolution in the x-y plane, while the sum of the energies detected in the fibres and crystal discriminate between transmitted and scattered radiation.

Abstract: In the method of forming a multilayer conductive pattern on a fired, non-conductive substrate, a first metallic, conductive pattern is formed on a substrate and at least partially covered with a fired, inorganic, insulating layer. Openings, corresponding to predefined areas of interconnection between individual conductive layers of the finished multilayer conductive pattern, are formed in the inorganic, insulating layer by removing selected areas of said fired, inorganic, insulating layer with a laser, said openings penetrating through the insulating layer, to selected areas of the conductive pattern layer, and not penetrating through said first, conductive pattern layer. A second, metallic, conductive pattern layer is formed on the fired, inorganic, insulating layer, making electrical connections to said first metallic, conductive pattern through said openings in said fired, inorganic, insulating layer. The laser pulse rate and power is adjusted as a function of the thickness of the fired, insulating layer, such that it is sufficient to ablate an opening in said insulating layer but insufficient for destroying the portion of the conductive pattern layer exposed by the formed opening.

Abstract: Repair of an otherwise inaccessible tube in a tube bank formed with return bends is initiated by cutting out a return bend on the failed tube 2. A spool body having sliding seals and positioned on a hollow conduit connected to a source of air at superatmospheric pressure is moved along within the tube from the opened end to determine the site of a failure 6. (Fig 2) A repair sleeve 36 is then positioned in register with the failure 6 again from the opened end and located between a hollow conduit 60 and an expander olive 52 carried on a rod 54 extending within the conduit 60. The sleeve 36 is a sliding fit within the tube and has externally serrated end portions 38,40 and a central portion 42, with the internal diameter of the central portion being greater than that of the end portions. The expander olive 52 is then pulled through the sleeve 36 to expand the end portions 38,40 into impervious contact with the tube 2 and effect a repair, the expander olive 52, rod 54 and conduit 60 removed and the return bend replaced.
