Abstract: Printer apparatus and method of forming multiple image pixel sizes
on photosensitive media. The printer comprises a light source (170) for projecting
a light beam (180) onto the photosensitive media (30) to form the image pixel on
the photosensitive media. An aperture system (200) is interposed between the
light source and the photosensitive media for adjustably sizing the light beam, the
aperture system having an adjustable aperture plate (230) for receiving the light
beam therethrough. The aperture system is adjustable for variably masking a
predetermined portion of the light beam, so that the image pixel obtains a
predetermined size as the predetermined portion of the light beam is masked. The
aperture system includes a guide member (210) having parallel spaced-apart
grooves (220) therein. The aperture plate, which slidably engages the grooves, has
a first aperture (240) of a first size and a second aperture (250) of a second size
spaced-apart from the first aperture. The aperture plate is slidable in the grooves
from a first position thereof for allowing the light beam to be received through the
first aperture, so as to expose a first image pixel size (260a) on the photosensitive
media. The aperture plate is also slidable to a second position thereof for allowing
the light beam to be received through the second aperture, so as to expose a
second image pixel size (260b) on the photosensitive media. A transport
mechanism (80, 100, 110, 130) transports the light source and aperture system
relative to the photosensitive media. Actuators (270a/b) engage the aperture
system due to excess travel of the transport mechanism beyond the side edges of
the media. When this occurs, the actuators actuate the aperture system, so that the
desired aperture is selected.

Abstract: A high efficiency radio frequency (RF) impedance
matching network (102) containing an "L-type"
inductor-capacitor (LC) circuit (110, 116) where the
capacitor (110) is a variable capacitor (110) coupled from
an input port (128) to ground (126) and the inductor (116)
is a variable inductance inductor (116) coupled from the
input port (128) to an output port (132). A blocking
capacitor (120) is provided between the inductor (116) and
the output port (132) and a ceramic capacitor (112) is
coupled in parallel across the variable capacitor (110).
The impedance match is tuned by physically adjusting tuning
elements of both the inductor (116) and capacitor (110).
The variable inductor (116) contains an improved inductor
tuning element (236) that optimizes current flow in the
tuning elements and inductor. To further improve the
efficiency of the matching network, the assembly uses an
improved enclosure interior finish and various circuit
optimization techniques that reduce contributions to match
loop resistance.

Abstract: The ink jet apparatus of an ink jet printer
includes an ink jet head (600). The head has an ink channel (613), a
nozzle (618), and an actuator for ejecting ink from the channel
through the nozzle. A drive unit (211,212,213) can drive the actuator.
A control unit (221,222,223) generates print data, on which the control
unit is based to control the drive unit. A stop pulse data
generator (44,61) carries out a logical operation of the print data
for each print cycle Tm and the print data for the next
print cycle Tm+1 to generate a predetermined stop pulse
data if the former data is a data for execution of printing
and if the latter data is a data for no execution of
printing. After printing is executed in accordance with
the print data for the cycle Tm, the drive unit is based on
the stop pulse data to drive the actuator so as to damp the
pressure wave vibration generated in the channel.

Abstract: Operating room table suitable for both surgical procedures and
digital imaging procedures, and for Minimally Invasive Surgical
procedures requiring real time imaging. The table (20) of this invention
comprises a radiolucent table top (22), a support structure (24) for the
table top, and a base (26) for supporting the table top and the support
structure. The table top is capable of vertical lift, longitudinal tilt, lateral
tilt, and four-way floating movement in either a longitudinal or lateral
direction, or both. The operating room table is preferably mobile. The
table further comprises normally locked first and second locks (150, 152),
one for preventing longitudinal floating movement of the table top and the
other for preventing lateral floating movement of the table top. the table
further comprises a control switch or actuator (38) for releasing the locks.
This control switch when actuated is effective to permit floating
movement of the table top along a horizontal axis and ineffective to
permit floating movement along a tilted axis. Thus, the table top is
prevented from floating movement when tilted both longitudinally and
laterally, is free to float laterally but not longitudinally when tilted only
longitudinally, is free to float longitudinally but not laterally when tilted
only laterally, and is free to float in either direction when horizontal.
