Abstract: The invention relates to a processing device for processing printed products, in particular for collecting individual printed sheets for manufacturing an assembled printed product. The device comprises a drum rotatable about a rotation axis and at least two feed stations arranged distanced to one another in the direction of the rotation axis, for feeding printed products, and at least one lead-away station for leading away processed printed products. The drum comprises several guides, in particular saddle-like rests or conveyor compartments which are arranged in succession in the peripheral direction of the drum and are movable along a closed revolving path, as well as advance elements controlled by a control unit, for displacing the printed products in the direction of the rotation axis. For increasing the flexibility, the device is composed of modules. The stability against sagging and/or twisting of the drum is increased in that the modules in each case comprise a base body rotatable about a rotation axis, with guide sections and advance elements arranged thereon, wherein the base body in its end regions which lie radially to the outside in the axial direction comprises support elements projecting to the outside perpendicularly to the rotation axis, and wherein in each case two support elements of adjacent modules are coupled or may be coupled to one another.

Title: Spatial information detecting apparatus
Inventor: SAKAMOTO SHINJI
IPC: G01S7/4913
Filed: 2007-10-10
Abstract: Provided is a device for detecting spatial information by using an intensity-modulated light on the basis of the intensity of the light reflected from a target space. The device is equipped with a timing synchronizing circuit for synchronizing the phase of the intensity-modulated light generated by a light emitting element and the timing, at which a light receiving element for receiving the intensity-modulated light is operated. The light receiving element is so operated as to detect the light receiving intensity at each of phase sections for one period of the intensity-modulated light, and the timing synchronizing circuit functions to compare the periodic fluctuation for determining the action of that light receiving element and the periodic fluctuation accompanying the outputting of the drive circuit of the light emitting element, so that the phase difference from both the periodic fluctuations may take a constant value.

Title: Reading device and reading method for an optical data recording medium
Inventor: NAKAMURA ATSUSHI
IPC: G11B7/005
Filed: 2007-05-31
Abstract: A reading devices suppresses deterioration of the recording marks caused by increasing the output laser power to compensate for a drop in the S/N ratio when reading at a high speed information recorded to a high density recording medium. To read information recorded to an optical data recording medium that is written and read using a laser beam output from a semiconductor laser, the reading method modulates a high frequency current on the drive current of the semiconductor laser to output the laser beam, and changes the light modulation rate according to the selected linear velocity used for reading. The light modulation rate is the ratio Pp/Pave between the peak power Pp and the average read power Pave of the light intensity of the high frequency modulated laser beam.
