Patent EP-0807846-A3 (EP)
Inventor: TOMOYORI MAKOTO
IPC: G02F1/1339
Filed: 1997-05-14
Abstract: There is provided a method of manufacturing a color
display including a color filter and a black matrix,
characterized in that it comprises the steps of: forming a
film (20) of zinc oxide on a transparent substrate (1); forming the
the color filter (R,G,B) on the said film of zinc oxide; and
thereafter, applying a deposit of electroless copper plating (23)
on an area of the said film of zinc oxide (20) on which the said
color filter is not formed, the said deposit having a
thickness which is substantially equal to a thickness of the
said color filter and constituting an element of said black
matrix. Thus, a color display may be provided with a black
matrix that is of high optical density and a low
reflectivity. The black matrix can also be commensurate with
film thickness with the color matrix (17). No photo lithographic
process is required in preparing the color filter and black
matrix. Various modified forms of embodiments of the method
of manufacturing a color display are also disclosed.

IPC: F16C11/06

Abstract: A rotary bearing has a pair (32,40) of bearing members, one
of which has convex (34) and planar (36) surface portions,
and the other of which has concave (42) and planar (44)
surface portions. The convex and concave surface portions
and the planar surface portions of the two bearing members
bear against each other via an interstitial bearing medium
of air, with the axial forces between the convex and
concave surfaces counteracting the axial forces between the
planar surface portions. When incorporated into a drive
mechanism, one of the bearing members is connected to a
drive shaft via a first torsionally stiff flexible
diaphragm (130), and the other bearing member is mounted to
a motor (50) (which rotates the drive shaft) via a second
torsionally stiff flexible diaphragm. During operation,
flexing of the diaphragms (110,130) accommodates
eccentricity in the mounting of the motor (50) without
transmitting unwanted loads to the bearing.

Abstract: A graphics system includes a graphics controller
for rendering polygons with a minimum number of
steps and registers. The graphics controller includes a
register file for receiving initial parameters for the polygon
from a host. The graphics controller also includes a
polygon engine for loading parameters from the register
file and using these parameters to generate a starting X
value for each scan line and a width value for each scan
line to permit efficient rendering of the polygon without
 edge walking" the polygon. The polygon engine
includes a counter and a pair of accumulators for defining
the number of orthogonal scan lines, the X start
value for each scan line, and the width of each scan.

Abstract: A cable modem supports two-way packet-switched traffic and is capable of telephony-type
signaling to provide local telephone services over a two-way HFC cable network. The
telephony-type signaling is transmitted using the TCP/IP protocol over an HFC distribution
plant. This telephony-type signaling includes representations of "off-hook," "on-hook," etc. At
the customer's premises, the telephony cable modem takes any one of a number of forms. For
example, the telephony cable modem comprises terminal equipment ports for coupling to both
data terminal equipment such as a personal computer and voice terminal equipment such as a
POTS telephone. Alternatively, the telephony cable modem includes POTS functionality and
comprises a handset and keypad for dialing. As yet another example, the telephony cable
modem includes a terminal equipment port for coupling to data terminal equipment that also
functions as a telephone, such as a personal computer equipped with a microphone and speakers.

Abstract: A viscous fluid type heater includes a heating chamber
(7) for holding viscous fluid and a rotor (14) located in
the heating chamber (7). A holding chamber (19; 63) is
located below the heating chamber (7) to communicate with
the heating chamber (7). A plunger (35; 62), which is
actuated by a solenoid (30; 50), is movable between a
forward position for maximizing the volume of the holding
chamber (19; 63) and a rearward position for minimizing the
volume of the holding chamber (19; 63). When the plunger
(35; 62) is at the forward position, viscous fluid is
discharged from the heating chamber (7) to the holding
chamber (19; 63). When the plunger (35; 62) is at the
rearward position, viscous fluid is supplied from the
holding chamber (19; 63) to the heating chamber (7). This
allows the load of the heater to be removed or reinstated
selectively. In an engine-driven vehicle, the engine (E)
can thus started without being hindered by the heater.

Abstract: The present invention provides new offsetting paper stacking devices and
methods which automatically stack sheets of paper into groups which are offset
from each other. The offsetting paper stacker stacks sheets of paper that are feed
into an input end of the device one at a time at a high rate of speed. The paper is
stacked in one pile, however, within that pile there are groups of sheets that are
stacked at a sideways offset to the group immediately above and below.
Accordingly, every other group of sheets of paper will be in line with each other
and each adjacent group will be offset from each other. The offsetting paper
stacker includes stacker wheels (24) which are rotatable about two axes of rotation to
stack the paper in an offset manner.

a positioning device (30) such as a windvane (31) or a
compass-controlled servomotor in the event of deviations
from the desired course and which as a result of
the rotation can be pivoted out transversely to the
keel line of the boat by water flowing past,   an auxiliary rudder (20), which can be forcibly rotated
about an approximately vertical axis of rotation (24)
as a result of a pivoting motion of the servo-pendulum
rudder (10), can be flowed against by water flowing
past and is used to generate course corrections when
the boat deviates from the desired course, and   a clutch device for engaging and disengaging the drive
connection (40) between the servopendulum rudder (10)
and the auxiliary rudder (20) with at least one drive
member and at least one driven member, and with a force
transmission member that can be moved between a working

second recesses (72a, 74a). The valve core (22) has a
first passage (100a) for communicating with the first
recess (72a) and a second passage (100b) for communicating
with the second recess (74a) when the valve core and the
valve sleeve (24) are in the neutral position. The first

surface (92b) communicating with the second recess (74a).
The first slot (130a) and the second slot (132b) have a
circumferential width sufficient to provide for laminar
fluid flow through the first and second recesses (72a, 74a)

Abstract: To reduce the force necessary to anchor the double "T"
bar attachments, the filament (28) of each attachment is made
longer than the shortest (perpendicular) distance between the
"T" bars (24:26) to avoid the necessity of stretching the
filament (28) beyond its original length as it is dispensed.
The filament (28) lies in the same plane as the "T" bars to
permit it to be fabricated on conventional stretching
equipment. Preferably, each end of the filament is formed at
an acute angle relative to a line (33) perpendicular to the
"T" bar to which it is attached. The attachments can be
supplied in continuously connected ladder stock form (Fig. 12)
or in a clip of parallel spaced attachments (Fig. 1), situated
between connector bars. In clip form, the attachments are fed
along a correspondingly shaped channel (18) through the
housing (10:12). In order to reduce the peak force necessary
to sever the "T" bars from the respective connector bars,
blades (60:62) are located within the housing such that they
cut at different times during the trigger stroke (Fig. 4).
