IPC: G06F9/48
Filed: 1995-01-25
Abstract: A power management unit is provided that includes a software
writable enable register for receiving an SMI enable bit when the
generation of an immediate SMI is desired. When the enable bit
is set, an SMI flag register causes the assertion of an SMI
signal. The power management unit further includes a reason
register that is also writable via software command. The reason
register is written prior to the setup of the enable bit with a
"reason value" indicative of the reason a pending SMI is being
requested. The immediate system management interrupt source
allows initiating software to indicate the reason it is
requesting an SMI, and causes an associated SMI to be asserted
with minimal latency. The immediate system management interrupt
source further allows the system management interrupt service
routine to quickly determine the reason for the immediate SMI,
thereby allowing simplified and more efficient SMI service
routines and further allowing greater flexibility in programming.
As a result, overall performance of the computer system may be
improved.

Abstract: An imaging unit comprising a frame means,
an image-carrying means mounted on the frame means, a
developing means and a cleaning means (10). The cleaning
means (10) includes a toner conveying pipe member (46) made of
a synthetic rubber for defining a passage for
conveying the toner removed from the image-carrying
means, a toner conveying means for conveying the
toner through the toner conveying pipe member, and a
toner-recovering container (126) detachably combined to the
toner conveying pipe member. When the toner-recovering
container (126) is combined to the toner
conveying pipe member (46), the toner discharge opening
formed in the side surface of the toner conveying
pipe member is communicated with the toner receiving
opening formed in the toner-recovering container. A
positioning member is disposed to place the toner
discharge opening and the toner receiving opening in
positions relative to each other. There are further
disposed a shutter member capable of moving between a
close position for closing the toner discharge
opening and an open position for opening the toner
discharge opening, and a resilient urging means for
resiliently urging the shutter member toward the
close position. When the toner-recovering container
is combined to the toner conveying pipe member, the
shutter member is caused to move from the close
position along the toner conveying pipe member and is
then caused to move in a direction to separate away
from the side surface of the toner conveying pipe
member to arrive at the close position.
A sealing member is disposed so to be compressed between the side
surface of said toner conveying pipe member (46) and the inner surface
of said shutter member when said shutter member is closed.

Abstract: The sheets (1) to be printed are delivered from a stack to the press by a feed mechanism which can be cut in and out. The mechanism is cut in with the press running at a low basic speed, after which it is accelerated. The point in time to start the run-up to the intended production speed is determined dependent on the number of press revolutions necessary to deliver the first sheet from the stack to inside the press. Typically the predetermined point is the first printing zone. The system ensures that, after cutting the sheet-feed in, the first sheet does not reach the predetermined position inside the press until or after production speed has been reached.

Abstract: The main characteristics of the motor vehicle,
which for legislative purposes can be compared to a
bicycle, are: it does not cause either chemical or noise
pollution since it is driven by an electric motor or
motors (4) powered by a battery or by an equivalent
system; it takes up approximately as much space on the
road as a bicycle since, in the car version, the two
passengers sit in tandem, with one sitting partly between
the legs of the other (1) - as in two-wheeled vehicles -
and, in the van version, its size is also reduced; and
lastly, in pedestrianized areas, once the driver has
dismounted, it can easily be moved manually, even uphill,
since the controls (28, 30) which allow the car to
advance at walking speed are positioned on the steering
wheel and are accessible from the outside.
