Filed: 1997-09-22
Abstract: OBJECT: To provide an operation control device for an in-cylinder injection type
two-cycle engine capable of avoiding the problem of poor combustion state due to
lower temperature in operating cylinders caused by lower temperature air flowing
from halted cylinders back into the operating cylinders when cylinder halt
operation is employed. 
SOLVING MEANS: An operation control device for an in-cylinder injection type
two-cycle engine wherein fuel is supplied by injection with an injection valve (49)
to a combustion chamber, ignited with an ignition plug (27), burned, and the burned
gas is exhausted to the atmosphere through exhaust passages, characterized in
that the device is provided with; an exhaust control valve (71) for variably
controlling the cross-sectional area of the exhaust passages and disposed so that the
exhaust gas from at least one cylinder is exhausted to the atmosphere after passing
through the exhaust control valve (71), and an ECU (50) which serves as cylinder halt
control means for halting the operation of at least one cylinder in a specified
operation range, and as an exhaust control valve opening control means for making
the opening of the exhaust control valve in a cylinder halt operation range smaller
than the opening for a non-cylinder halt operation range.

Abstract: Several different embodiments are disclosed of a
simple, compact or miniature bar code scanner which is
capable of scanning in any one of several modes. In a
preferred embodiment, the compact bar code scanner is used
in a small housing mounted on an index finger of an
operator such that the natural pointing direction of the
index finger aims the scanner. In one embodiment, a high
frequency flexural member, with a scanning mirror and
permanent magnet mounted thereon, is supported by a low
frequency flexural member. An x drive coil is positioned
by the permanent magnet, and with an applied high frequency
x drive signal, causes the high frequency flexural member,
with the permanent magnet means and scanning mirror mounted
thereon, to torsionally oscillate at the frequency of the x
drive signal. A y drive coil is also positioned by the
permanent magnet, and with an applied low frequency y drive
signal, causes the low frequency flexural member to
oscillate to cause low frequency y scanning of the scanning
mirror, thereby resulting in a raster scan pattern. With
an applied high frequency y drive signal, the y coil causes
the high frequency flexural member to oscillate at a high
frequency to cause high frequency y scanning of the mirror,
thereby resulting in an omnidirectional scan pattern. In
several disclosed embodiments, the present invention
provides a mirrorless beam scanning unit mounted in a
finger size ring wherein a light emitter such as a visible
light diode is moved back and forth.

Abstract: A method and system assign an image classification (WindowBit) to a multi-level grey scale
pixel value (V i ). The multi-level grey scale pixel value is modified based on an error (E FB ,
E FIFO )generated by previously processed pixels and the image classification of the multi-level grey scale
pixel and processed based on the assigned image classification to reduce the number of grey levels in
the multi-level grey scale pixel value. An error (E rr ) is generated based on the processing of the
modified multi-level grey scale pixel value and a portion of the error (E FB ) is diffused to a next pixel in a
fastscan direction and a remaining portion of the error (E FIFO ) is diffused to pixels in a slowscan
direction. The modified multi-level grey scale pixel value referred above includes an error from the
previously processed neighboring pixels if the current pixel is classified as being processed as an error
diffused pixel. The modified multi-level grey scale pixel value equals to the original pixel value if the
current pixel is classified as being processed as a non-error diffused pixel.

Abstract: A vehicle headlamp has a reflector (1) coupled to a lamp housing (2) via
a pivotal connection and two aiming mechanisms for tilting the reflector (1)
relative to the lamp housing (2) about horizontal and vertical axes intersecting
at the pivotal connection. One such aiming mechanism comprises an
aiming screw (17) rotatably mounted to the lamp housing (2), a socket member (24) affixed
to the back of the reflector (1), and a ball (21) with a tapped hole (23) extending
therethrough to fit over the aiming screw (17). The socket member (24)
has a hollow extending therethrough for receiving the aiming screw (17) with
clearance. Part of the hollow in the socket member (24) is formed into a
socket for rotatably receiving the ball (21) on the aiming screw (17). A lockpin (22)
on the ball (21) is engaged in a slot in the socket member (24) thereby locking
the ball (21) against rotation relative to the socket member (24) about the axis of
the hole therein. The bidirectional rotation of the aiming screw (17) is therefore
translated into the linear reciprocation of the ball (21) together with the
socket member (24), which member is additionally free to undergo angular displacement
relative to the ball (21) for smoother tilting of the reflector (1).

actual yaw rate is greater than the desired yaw rate,
thereby increasing understeer, decreasing yaw rate, and

Abstract: A supercharger thrust bearing (1) for use in a machine rotatable
at a high speed includes radial oil grooves (9) formed in a pad
surface (7). Gradients (11) are formed at the outward radial
ends of the oil supply grooves (9) such that the groove depth
sequentially diminishes as the outside in the radial direction
is approached. The machine rotatable at a high speed is, for
example, used in a boat or a ship. The lubricating oil inside the oil
supply grooves (9) is forced out by the gradients (11) and
creates a dam. The lubrication oil flowing in a circumferential
direction on the pad surface (7), which is heated on the pad
surface, is stopped by this dam and turned to a radially outward
direction. The heated oil is pushed out from the pad surface and
the new cold oil is caused to flow onto the pad surface (7) from
the radial grooves (9).

Abstract: A one-way adapter such as a cable modem is
initialized to allow a personal computer to receive
data from a computer network such as the Internet
via a broadcast channel, while transmitting data
upstream to the computer network via a telephone
line. First, a two-way adapter such as a phone
modem is initialized by establishing a telephone
link with a terminal server of an Internet Service
Provider telephone network. The terminal server
obtains an IP address from a phone network address
server, and assigns the IP address to the phone
modem stack. Next, the cable modem stack sends out
a request for session initialization to a cable
modem driver. The request is processed by a packet
processing relay agent (PPRA), and the IP address of
the phone modem is inserted into the packet. The IP
packet destination address is set to that of a cable
network address server. A cable network address
server receives the packet via an upstream telephone
line and responds with IP address and configuration
information for the relay agent address. The phone
modem receives the response and passes it to the
cable modem stack via the PPRA. The cable modem is
thus initialized with IP address and configuration
information and is ready to receive Internet data
via a one-way RF channel.
