Abstract: A CD player having an improved level search function is disclosed. In a level search, the judgment whether or not an optical pickup can land again on the same song is done before the jump of the pickup. When it is judged that the pickup can land on the same song, the pickup jumps a predetermined number of tracks which is determined for each of selected songs depending upon the playing time of each song. When it is judged that the pickup cannot land on the same song, the pickup jumps to the beginning of the next programmed song so that unwilling playback of non-programmed songs can be avoided. In another CD player, it is successively judged whether or not the pickup can land again on the same song in level search, based on the playing time corresponding a predetermined number of tracks to be skipped. If the pickup can land on the same song, then the predetermined number of tracks are skipped. If the pickup cannot land on the same song, then it is skipped to the beginning of the next programmed song, whereby the pickup is prevented from landing on non-programmed songs. Therefore, level search can be accurately performed.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method of measuring the alignment status of a shaft line (16) in rotating machinery and an apparatus for the implementation of said method. Departures from alignment are measured at convenient points along the shaft line (16) by the displacement of an optically fanned laser beam (4) impinging upon sensor units (10,11). At the start of a measurement session, a zero reference point is determined for the beam (4) and the measurement values of the sensor units (10,11) are compared against this reference value during the measurement session. Relative displacement is obtained as the difference between the initial value and the value during the measurement. The apparatus and method are also applicable to the measurement of displacements in pipelines, long shafts and other similar systems.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging method and apparatus wherein out-of-slice artifacts are reduced by collecting two views of magnetic resonance data with the same phase encode gradient and storing them temporarily in first and second memories (72, 74). The views are combined (76) such that the out-of-slice data sums and the in-slice data cancels. The magnitude of the out-of-slice data is then adjusted (78) to create an out-of-slice magnetization view which is stored in an out-of-slice magnetization memory (80). A plurality of views with different phase encode gradients are subsequently collected during a magnetic resonant imaging sequence. Each view has subtracted from it (90) the out-of-slice data view and the resulting views are transformed (92) into an image representation.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for loading BIOS stored on a direct access storage device (62,66) into a personal computer system (10). The personal computer system (10) comprises a system processor (26), a system planar (24), a random access main memory, a read only memory (36), and at least one direct access storage device (62,66). The read only memory (36) includes a first portion of BIOS and data representing the type of system processor (26) and system planar (24) I/O configuration. The first portion of BIOS initializes the system (10) and the direct access storage device (62,66) to read in a master boot record into the system (10) from the direct access storage device (62,66). The master boot record includes a data segment (122-138) and an executable code segment (120). The data segment (122-138) includes data representing system hardware and a system (10) configuration which is supported by the master boot record. The first BIOS portion confirms the master boot record is compatible with the system hardware by verifying that the data from the data segment (122-138) of the master boot record agrees with the system processor (26), system planar (24), and planar I/O configuration. If the master boot record is compatible with the system hardware, the first BIOS portion vectors the system processor (26) to execute the executable code segment (120) of the master boot record. The executable code segment (120) confirms that the system configuration has not changed and loads in the remaining BIOS portion from the direct access storage device (62,66) into random access memory (32). The executable code segment (120) then verifies the authenticity of the remaining BIOS portion and vectors the system processor (26) to begin executing the BIOS now in random access memory (32). BIOS executing in random access memory (32) then boots up the operating system to begin operation of the personal computer system (10).

Abstract: A patient  (12)  is irradiated with x-rays  (10)  from an x-ray tube  (A) . X-rays that have passed through a region of interest of the patient are converted to a light image by a phosphor screen  (14)  on the dome shaped input face  (16)  of an image intensifier  (B) . The dome shaped input face causes the output optical image  (20)  of the image intensifier to be distorted with pin cushion distortion. The sweep pattern of the electron beam of a video pick up tube  (24)  of a video camera  (C)  is controlled by deflection plates  (26a, 26b, 26c, 26d).  A sweep control circuit  (D)  alters the sweep pattern such that image signals from the video camera are distorted so as to cancel the image intensifier tube distortion, so that a man-readable image  (28)  displayed on a video monitor  (22)  is substantially distortion-free. The sweep control circuit alters conventional vertical sweep control voltage ramps  (V)  and horizontal control voltage ramps  (H)  by adding third order, parabolic terms.

Abstract: A nozzle assembly is interconnected with the delivery passageway or conduit from a hand pump sprayer (10). The nozzle assembly has a first (36) and second passageway (38), preferably conduits which are connected to the delivery passageway (18) or conduit and splits the fluid preferably pan coating exiting from the delivery passageway (18) or conduit into two streams. The cross sectional flow area of the first (36) and second conduit (38) means is smaller than the cross sectional flow area of the delivery conduit (18) so that the velocity of the pan coating increases upon entry into the first and second conduits located in the nozzle assembly. 
     Each conduit has a fluid outlet to the atmosphere. The first (36) and second conduits (38) in combination with said fluid outlets define a discharge axis. The first fluid conduit discharge axis intersects the second fluid discharge axis at an impingement angle (β) of from 10° to 170° preferably from 60° to 140° so that the pan coating exiting each outlet intersects at a point (48) exterior to the nozzle. As a result the pan coating exiting the first outlet collides with the pan coating exiting from the second outlet to break the pan coating into small droplets to form a wide angle mist for application to a cooking surface. The impingement angle (β) should be sufficiently high so that there is sufficient collision of the streams to form fine drops while at the same time preserving a sufficient forward velocity so that the pan coating can be sprayed on a cooking surface between 6 inches and 24 inches from the nozzle.

Abstract: A cassette ejecting mechanism of a tape player is so configured that a cassette holder is provided with a portion to be locked whereas a head drum withdrawal lever is provided with a lock portion, so that when the cassette holder has moved to a loading position, the lock portion of the head drum withdrawal lever prevents the cassette holder from moving toward an ejecting position and locks it at a loading position, but when the head drum withdrawal lever is retracted, the lock is released to permit the cassette holder to move to the ejecting position. At the same time, the portion to be locked of the cassette holder is located in front of the lock portion of the head drum withdrawal lever and prevents the head drum withdrawal lever from returning to a forward position; namely, the head drum is locked at the retracted position. Accordingly, locking and unlocking of the cassette holder in and from the loading position as well as locking of the head drum in the retracted position can be reliably carried out in a predetermined order only by means of the cassette holder and the intermediate lever.
