Abstract: A conveyor construction includes a conveyor frame formed of a pair of side frame members which are interconnected with each other via a bed plate which underlies an endless conveyor belt. The side frame members may also be interconnected by a bottom wall formed integrally with the side frame members and extending therebetween, or via a separate bottom plate member that is mounted to the side frame members. The bed plate and the lower plate are connected using a connection arrangement which enables the bed plate and lower plate to be connected to the side frame members at any point along the length of the side frame members. The connection arrangement includes slot-type engagement structure which extends throughout the length of each side frame member, and which is capable of receiving threaded fasteners, such as self-tapping screws, which extend through openings formed in the bed plate and the lower plate. In this manner, the side frame members can be selectively cut to a desired length and openings can be formed in the bed plate and lower plate at any location, and self-tapping screws can extend through the openings into engagement with the slot structure for mounting the bed plate and the lower plate to and between the side frame members. The side frame members define passages within which gear racks are received, and a rotatable pinion is engaged with the gear racks for providing extension and retraction of the gear racks upon rotation of the pinion. The gear racks engage head plates movably mounted to the side frame members, and a spindle is rotatably mounted to and extends between the head plates. In this manner, extension of the gear racks result in outward movement of the head plates, and thereby tensioning of the belt. When proper belt tensioning is attained, the head plates are secured in position using retainer members secured within T-slots formed in the side frame members. The spindles are mounted to the head plates via spherical bearings to provide proper belt tracking. The bearings are engaged with the spindle via endwise engagement structure.

Title: Photosensor system and drive control method thereof
Inventor: NAKAMURA YOSHIAKI
IPC: H04N5/367
Filed: 2000-10-19
Granted: 2004-04-06
Abstract: A photosensor system having a photosensor array constituted by two-dimensionally arraying a plurality of photosensors includes a driver circuit for supplying a drive signal to the photosensors, and a controller for controlling reading operation of a subject image and sensitivity setting. Before the start of normal reading operation of a subject image, pre-reading operation of changing the image reading sensitivity at a plurality of stages for respective rows is executed. A row in an optimal image reading state is easily determined based on the dynamic range distribution of the lightness data of read image data or a dynamic range distribution from which an abnormal value deviating from the main change trend of lightness data is removed, and the linearly differentiated value of the dynamic range. An image reading sensitivity set for this row is set as an optimal sensitivity. This can simplify sensitivity setting processing and shorten the required time.

Abstract: A battery is mounted to a front part of a wheel house/damper housing, and a relay box as automotive equipment is mounted to the rear of the battery via front and rear stays in such a manner as to be separated upwardly. A guide surface is formed at a front end of a lower side of the relay box, and a corner at a rear end of the battery is made to face the guide surface. When the battery is moved rearward in a vehicle collision, the relay box is moved upwardly by a load transmitted thereto from the battery via the guide surface to thereby be separated from the vehicle body. Accordingly, the impact absorbing performance can be increased by preventing the disturbance of the relay box to the rear movement of the battery, and damage to the relay box can be suppressed to a minimum level.

Abstract: The manufacture of seamless tubes in which the process includes providing an assembly having a metal tube blank (1), and an elongate metal core (2) of shape memory effect material which is surrounded and contacted by the tube blank (1) with a minimal gap. The assembly is elongated by mechanical working thereof at an elevated temperature until the tube blank (1) has been converted into a tube of desired dimensions. After the elongation step, the core (12) is subjected to a treatment which results in the core being in a stretched condition throughout its length, and does not substantially stretch the tube (11). The core is removed from the tube, and subsequently subjected to drawing passes over a nondeformable mandrel thereby refining the precision of diametric and wall dimensions with improved ID and OD surface quality. There is also decoring and reinserting to improve final dimensions which results in the ability to fabricate smaller, longer tubes (111).

Filed: 2003-03-31
Granted: 2009-09-08
Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for instant message communication in a wireless and non-wireless environment. The invented system includes an apparatus that facilitates conversation with individuals not included in the user's buddy group, non-buddies (183). The system includes at least one additional routing code (4561) reserved for conversing with non-buddies. The first time during a user session that the system receives a message originating from or destined for a non-buddy, before routing the message, the non-buddy's personal identifier is associated with one of the reserved routing codes (4561). The mobile user can then reply to the message using the same automated «reply» function available for replies to buddies.  The nonbuddy routing code assignment is only for the duration of a user session. When the mobile user signs off from the system, the routing code becomes available for reassignment.
