Filed: 1997-07-11
Abstract: A liquid discharge head comprises discharge ports for discharging the liquid, a bubble producing area for producing an air bubble in the liquid of liquid flow channels, and a movable member, which is disposed toward the bubble producing area, and displaceable between a first position and a second position farther away from the bubble producing area than the first position, the liquid discharge head discharging the liquid in such a manner that the movable member is displaced from the first position to the second position by a pressure due to a bubble produced in the bubble producing area, and the bubble is more greatly expanded downstream than upstream in a direction toward the discharge port, due to the displacement of the movable member. The head has a check valve disposed in a liquid supply passage leading to the liquid flow channels.

Abstract: A method for identifying a person using biometric
information is provided. A portable electronic device (10)
such as an IC card stores feature values of the biometric
information as registered data. When a user enters the
biometric information of his own into a data processing
device (20) such as IC card terminal, the data processing
device extracts feature values about the inputted biometric
information and sends it to the portable electronic device.
The portable electronic device matches the features
inputted by the data processing device to the registered
data for performing personal identification. For reducing
the processing load burdened on the portable electronic
device, the portable electronic device entrusts part of the
processing to the data processing device. This allows the
portable electronic device and the data processing device
to work in concert.

Filed: 1998-04-17
Abstract: Plant growth habit is altered by causing either
under-expression or over-expression of profilin in a
plant cell. Under-expression of profilin can be
achieved by transforming a plant or plant cell with a
gene expressing an antisense mRNA complementary to the
mRNA transcribed by the coding sequence of a profilin
gene and expressing the gene in the plant or plant cell
such that the antisense mRNA inhibits the production of
the profilin in the plant or plant cell. Under-expression
of profilins in plants can lead to such
alterations in growth habit as a dwarf phenotype, a
reduced root and root hair system, and delay in the
onset of flowering. Over-expression of profilin can be
achieved by transforming a plant or plant cell with a
gene capable of expressing a profilin in the plant or
plant cell and causing the transformed gene to be
expressed in the plant or plant cell. Over-expression
of profilin in a plant can lead to such alterations in
growth habit as a tall phenotype, an expansion of the
root and root hair system, expansion of leaf surface
area and accelerating the onset of flowering.

Abstract: In a conventional photo signal amplification transmission system, since control
is performed to make constant an output power, total output powers of all wavelengths
are made constant when a multi-wavelength transmission is made. An output power
of one wavelength is decreased and deviated from an optimum power. To solve the
problem, a transmission photo amplifier 3, a relay photo amplifier 4 and a receiving
photo amplifier 5 are provided with wavelength number information management
sections 11, 12 and 13, respectively. An amplifying means is controlled in accordance
with the number of wavelengths of the multi-wavelength signal which is obtained by
the wavelength number information management sections. The wavelength number
information management sections 11 to 13 multiplex a wavelength number information
signal onto an optical fiber cable 6 and renew the signal.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de codage d'un signal vocal échantillonné dans lequel le signal vocal est divisé en trames séquentielles. Pour chaque trame courante, on génère un premier ensemble de coefficients de codage par prédiction linéaire (LPC), le nombre de coefficient LPC dépend des caractéristique de la trame courante. Si le nombre de coefficients LPC dans le premier ensemble de la trame courante est différent du nombre dans le premier ensemble de la trame précédente, un second ensemble dilaté ou comprimé de coefficients LPC est généré à partir du premier ensemble de coefficients LPC pour la trame précédente. Ce second ensemble renferme le même nombre de coefficients LPC présents dans ledit premier ensemble de la trame courante. Chacun des ensembles de coefficients de fréquence spectrale de ligne (LSP) sont générés pour le premier ensemble de coefficients LPC de la trame courante et le second ensemble de coefficient LPC de la trame précédente. Les ensembles de coefficients LSP sont ensuite combinés de manière à émettre un signal résiduel codé.

Abstract: A valve for dispensing the fluid contents of a container such that external contaminants such as dust, air or microbes cannot enter the container even after repeated dispensing cycles. The valve comprises a plug-type valve and an elastomeric sheath type valve such as a flapper valve, slit valve, or duck bill valve. All are one-way devices. The plug is provided with a means for resetting it to the closed position at the end of each delivery cycle such that the plug is a one-way device also. The means can be an elastomeric tether, gravity, or the deformation of a valve part. The plug can be provided with channels or other cut or shaped features, e.g. grooves, to facilitate fluid flow. The container used with this invention must be volumetrically reducible and thereby maintain its own internal pressure at the end of a delivery cycle. Alternatively, the valve of the present invention can be made without the outlet valve, i.e., the flapper, slit, or duck bill valve. In this case, the plug is the only one-way valve, mechanism.

Abstract: A method of controlling the flow of current in a winding which forms part of
a control valve of an engine fuel system, the valve including an armature
movable against the action of resilient means from a rest position to an
actuated position, by the action of the magnetic field produced by the

method comprises connecting the winding to a source of supply and
controlling the flow of current in the winding to effect movement of the
armature to the actuated position and to hold the armature at the actuated
position, disconnecting the winding from the source of supply to allow the
armature to return to the rest position under the action of the resilient means,

winding for a limited period to control the movement of the armature towards
the rest position, said limited period of current supply being followed before
the armature reaches its rest position by a period of current decay at a low
rate to allow for detection of a discontinuity in the current flowing in the
winding which occurs when the armature attains the rest position.

for the lens is then dropped onto the concave surface of the plastic mold. The mold then
spins in a determined speed for a determined period of time, such that a desired radius
surface is formed. During the spinning, the pigments are distributed inside the lens
material due to the centrifugal force so generated, at positions determined generally by
the diameters of the particles, such that a dazzling appearance may be obtained. This
invention also discloses the contact lens prepared according to the method of this
invention.
