Abstract: A clamp assembly for clamping a lithographic plate to a cylinder includes a base defining a channel and a plate mounted to the base and overlying the channel. An elongated cam member is rotatably positioned in the channel, the member having a cam surface profiled so that when the cam member is in a first angular position, that surface extends relatively close to the plate and when the cam member is in a second position, that surface is further away from the plate. Stops are included for establishing the two positions of the cam member. When the cam member is in its second position and an edge margin of a recording medium is inserted between the cam member and the plate, moving the cam member to its first position causes the clamp assembly to simultaneously grip and pull on the recording medium. An interposer may be positioned between the plate and the cam member to prevent direct engagement of the recording medium by the cam member and thus prevent the clamp assembly from pulling on the recording medium while clamping the medium.

Abstract: A PECL buffer produces a PECL differential signal pair given a single-ended input signal. The buffer does not introduce any phase mismatch and thus no skew to the differential signal pair. Because no phase mismatch exists between the differential signal pair, the present invention is especially suited for high speed systems and circuits. The buffer also allows the differential signal pair to respond continuously to changes in the single-ended input signal.

Abstract: A plunger mechanism for forming a hollow article of glass in a "narrow neck press and blow" operation which utilizes an electro servo-driven leadscrew to actuate it. A position sensing resolver is used to determine the position of the plunger over the full range of its stroke, and the position information can be used as feedback to control the position of the plunger prior to contacting a molten gob of glass in a mold chamber. The depth of the plunger penetration into the molten gob is then controlled by the pressing pressure, which is a function of motor torque and screw mechanics. It is possible to control the pressure exerted on the molten glass gob by controlling the torque applied by the motor. A separate gob weight controller is not required because changes in gob weight can be determined by closely monitoring the plunger penetration of the gob.

Abstract: A controller receives a signal indicating the temperature of a print head from a head temperature detection thermistor. The controller sets a cooling time for the print head based on a time in which the temperature of the print head increase from a first temperature to a second temperature and an environment temperature detected by an environment temperature detection thermistor. When the temperature of the print head exceeds the second temperature due to excessive heat accumulation therein, printing and movement of the print head are suspended for the cooling time immediately after completion of printing of one or a plurality of bands at a position where the print head is located at that time. Thus, the temperature of the print head is decreased.

Abstract: A method of padding an image signal comprises the
steps of dividing an image signal of an object having an
arbitrary shape into plural regions; processing the plural
regions in prescribed processing order; padding an
insignificant region, which abuts on a boundary region
including a boundary of the object and is composed of
insignificant pixels only, with a padding value obtained by
a prescribed method; and generating additional information
showing whether significant pixels are included or not, for
each of the plural regions, by a prescribed method, with
reference to significant signals showing whether pixel
values of pixels included in the plural regions are
significant or not, which additional information is
referred to when the pixel values of pixels in the plural
regions are padded. In this method, not only the boundary
region but also the insignificant region adjacent to the
boundary region are padded, and region by region padding is
performed using the additional information that shows
whether each region includes significant pixels or not.
Therefore, when the image is encoded or decoded, a
prediction signal with less difference can be obtained even
for an image of great motion, whereby the delay time and
the arithmetic amount in the coding and decoding processes
are significantly reduced.

Abstract: A rate sensor for sending applied rate on at least two
and preferably three axes includes a vibrating structure (6).
Means are provided for vibrating the structure (6) in a  Cos
2  carrier mode at a  Cost 2  frequency. This carrier mode
provides the linear momentum components necessary to couple
energy into response modes in every geometric plane.
Rotation about one or other of the axes in the plane of the
vibrating structure will generate Coriolis forces which cause
a rocking motion of the vibrating structure (6) about the
same axis at the carrier mode frequency. The vibrating
structure (6) has a substantially planar substantially ring
or hoop like form shaped and dimensioned to match the
frequencies of the  Cos 2  mode and rocking mode vibrations in
the structure (6) resulting in a resonant amplification of
the rocking mode vibrations caused by rotations around axes
in the plane of the structure (6). Rotation about the third
axis normal to the plane of the structure (6) generates
Coriolis forces which couple energy into the degenerate  Cos
2  response mode. The  Cos 2  response and rocking mode
vibration amplitudes are proportional to the applied rate and
means are provided for detecting the  Cos 2  response mode and
rocking mode vibration and thereby the applied rate.

Abstract: A silicon nitride circuit board comprises a silicon nitride substrate having oxide layers at surfaces thereof, and copper system circuit plates directly bonded to the silicon nitride substrate thorough the oxide layer by the use of the DBC (copper directly bonding) method. The oxide layer disposed on the surface of the silicon nitride substrate consists essentially of an aluminum oxide layer. This aluminum oxide layer is formed by the process of coating/calcinating a super fine grain alumina sol. The aluminum oxide layer is dense and stable compared with an Si-O system oxide layer which is formed on the silicon nitride substrate by the use of the thermal oxidization method. In particular, the aluminum oxide layer formed by the process of coating/calcinating the super fine grain alumina sol is superior in interface bonding ability with the silicon nitride substrate. Therefore, when the copper system circuit plate is bonded to the silicon nitride substrate by the use of the DBC method, the poor bonding and the blistering can be controlled to be generated, and then the thermal resistance due to the oxide layer can be controlled to be increased.
