Patent EP-0884485-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NODA MITSUO
IPC: F15B15/22
Filed: 1998-06-10
Abstract: A rodless power cylinder includes a tube having an
oblong circular cross section bore and a slit extending
along the longitudinal axis of the bore and penetrating
the wall of the tube. The bore includes a slit-side
inner surface on which the slit opens and a counter-slit-side
inner surface which opposes the slit-side inner
surface. The slit-side inner surface of the bore is
formed as a flat plane or a curved plane having
substantially no curvature. Further, recesses are formed
on the slit side inner surface at both sides of the slit.
The surfaces of the recesses are formed as curved planes
having a curvature larger than the curvature of the slit-side
inner surface. An inner seal band made of a flat,
thin metal band is provided to seal the opening of the
slit. The seal band contacts the surface of the recess
at its transverse edges. Therefore, a good sealing
capability is achieved by the contacts between the
surfaces of the recesses and the edges of the seal band.

Abstract: A method for producing steel rolling bearing rings, starting from a hot-rolled tube, the structure of which is similar to a spheroidized structure and from which rings of the same continuous length are hot-cut while supplying a lubricant and, after cooling, are further processed. The hot-cutting takes place at a temperature below the transformation temperature of the rolling bearing steel used but above 720° C., with subsequent cooling in static air. From the blank ring a green or soft ring of a rolling bearing ring is produced with narrow tolerances of its shaped elements by an optimally timed multistage machining type of cold further processing operation, the main element of the cold further processing being a turning operation.

Abstract: In a receive base 3 forming a child seat 1, there is disposed
a set angle adjusting mechanism 5 which, in accordance with the
angle of a vehicle seat 2, extends a primary rotary plate or the
primary rotary plate and a secondary rotary plate simultaneously
in a rotating manner to thereby interpose the same between the
receive base 3 and vehicle seat 2. According to the present
structure, the angle of the receive base 3 can be freely set
regardless of the angle of the vehicle seat 2. Also, the set angle
adjusting mechanism 5 may be interposed between the receive base
3 and the seat main body of the child seat in such a manner that
it is able to adjust the angle of the seat main body. An angle
display device is disposed in either of the receive base or seat
main body, so that the above-mentioned angle can be confirmed while
setting the same. This can enhance the convenience and safety of
the child seat to a great extent.

Abstract: A decoder of an encoded video signal representing a video image
includes an apparatus for scrolling an on screen display of closed caption information
that is included in the encoded video signal. The apparatus decodes the closed caption
data from the encoded video signal as a sequence of lines of on screen display data.
An on screen display processor alternately stores successive groups of lines of the
sequence of lines in a first memory buffer and in a second memory buffer where each
successive group of lines is shifted by at least one line with respect to the previous
group of lines. A display processor alternately displays the on screen display data
from the first memory buffer and the second memory buffer synchronized with the
storage into the buffers whereby the most recently stored group of lines is displayed.
Rather than using first and second buffers, lines of on screen display data may be
stored in a linked list of memory storage regions. On screen display information
stored in the linked list is transferred to the display processor to produce the on screen
display. To scroll the on screen display, a memory region is added to one end of the
linked list and a memory region is dropped from the other end of the linked list where
the added memory region stores a successive line of on screen display data from the
sequence of lines of on screen display data.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for simultaneously characterizing the disturbance of a dynamical
system and the dynamic response of the system. The disturbance is characterized by a sum
of reference signals weighted by disturbance parameters. The dynamic response is similarly characterized
by a set of response parameters which model the relationship between a set of test signals
and the response to these test signals. 
     The disturbance parameters and the response parameters are jointly estimated to provide a characterization
of the dynamical system. This estimation is achieved by sensing the system at one
or more locations to obtain sensed signals, obtaining reference signals related to the disturbances,
synthesizing an estimate of the sensed signal from the reference signals, the test signals, the disturbance
parameters and the response parameters, and jointly adjusting the disturbance parameters
and the response parameters according to the difference between the synthesized signal and the
sensed signal. 
     The characterization may be incorporated in systems or methods for control or monitoring of
dynamical systems.

Abstract: Apparatus and method define colorimetrically equivalent
printmasks (228), and from among those select masks
(225) for use. Ordinarily, nonvolatile memory holds operating
instructions (Fig. 19). A print stage (16, 18, 24,
51-55, 62-64) applies selected masks to control marking on
a print medium (61). Typically this stage has a case; a
reciprocating pen carriage (17); an advance mechanism (62-64)
for orthogonal relative motion of medium and carriage;
and one or more pens (18) on the carriage making multiple
passes across each pixel, to eject ink (54) and so form
the marks (Figs. 1, 3, 4). One or more digital processors
(72, 272, 372, 472) coordinate operation. Preferably an
image-processing stage (73, 273, 373, 473) assigns inking
spatially among pixels; each mask (228 etc.) assigns the
spatially assigned inking among print passes. Preferably,
selected masks (87, 225 etc.) are used, for successive
pixels, in randomized sequence (Fig. 6, lower sequence;
Fig. 11, lower two). Preferably each mask covers a small
fraction of the image, preferably well under six millimeters
(one-quarter inch) in both width and height. Preferably
the image is defined as an array of input colorimetric
levels (Levels 0-3, Figs. 5, 7; Levels 0-4, Fig. 11);
each level may be selectably mapped (330) to any one of
colorimetrically equivalent masks (328). Preferably colorimetrically
equivalent levels (308; Levels 2A, 2B in
Fig. 6; Levels 2-6, Fig. 11) are defined, and then assigned
(through a substantially randomized procedure) independently
to particular masks. Preferably the image is
prepared using a pixel grid (71) coarser than the available
printer resolution, and the plural colorimetrically 
equivalent masks constructed by varying allocation (222,
226; 302, 316) of printer passes in the coarser grid.

waveguide, a width of which is slowly reduced in the horizontal direction from an
incident end of the waveguide to the light-emitting end thereof. A spot size of the
modulated laser light at a light-emitting end of the modulator-integrated laser is almost
the same as that of the single mode optical fibre, hence both can be directly connected
with a low coupling loss.
