Abstract: An analogue to digital converter comprises a comparator,
an up/down counter and a pulse width modulator. The
analogue input to the comparator initially causes the
counter to count up. The counter output is the converted
digital word. The word is used to vary the modulation
duty cycle of the modulator output which is compared with
the analogue input to the comparator. When the modulator
output exceeds the analogue input, the comparator output
changes and the counter counts down, maintaining a
digital output from the counter at the value of the
converted analogue signal.

Abstract: A multiplex transmission system of this invention
includes a plurality of multiplex nodes(11-15)
interconnected by a common multiplex transmission
line(16). A frame of data is transmitted among the
multiplex nodes(11-15) through the multiplex
transmission line(16). When a data frame transmitted
from an air conditioner switch multiplex node
(subnode)(13) is received, an air conditioner unit
multiplex node (main node)(12), which is predetermined
as a destination node, detects the contents of each
data from an ID-a of the received data, performs a
calculation on SOM to DATA4 received, generates
collation data (CRC) in accordance with the result of
the calculation and transmits same. The subnode(13)
generates collation data (CRC), which is an error
check code, through a calculation on the transmitted
SOM to DATA4, and compares the thus-generated CRC with
the CRC received from the main node, to determine
whether or not the data transmission was properly
carried out. When the data transmission was carried
out properly, the subnode(13) returns a signal ACK3,
and when the data transmission failed, the data frame
is retransmitted, whereby the subnode(13) need not
have an ACK management function.

Abstract: Printer defining a reduced exterior envelope and method of
providing same. The printer (10) comprises a housing (90) having a top wall
(110). The printer also has a front side wall (120) with an aperture (150) for
receiving a dye-carrying cartridge therethrough. A printhead (200) is disposed in
the housing. A movable platen (230) is disposed in the housing in a first position
spaced-apart from the printhead. A movable arm (240) is attached to the platen
and engageable with the cartridge as the cartridge is received through the aperture.
The arm moves from a first location to a second location thereof as the arm
engages the cartridge and the platen moves from the first position to a second
position thereof adjacent the printhead as the arm moves from the first location to
the second location. In this manner, the printer defines a reduced exterior
envelope because the cartridge is loaded through the aperture in the front sidewall
rather than through the top wall of the printer. Also, when the platen is disposed
in the first position thereof, it avoids creating an interference with the cartridge as
the cartridge is inserted into the housing.

Abstract: Proposed is an improvement in a multi-stage solvent extraction
process of a metal value such as rare earth elements from an acidic
feed solution containing the metal value in the form of a water-soluble
salt by bringing the aqueous solution into contact with a water-immiscible
organic extractant solution containing an extractant compound
which releases an acid when combined with the metal ions.
While the concentration of the acid in the aqueous feed solution is increased
when contacted with the organic extractant solution containing
an extractant agent of the above mentioned type so as to cause a
shift of the extraction equilibrium unfavorably against further extraction
of the metal ions, the acid in the aqueous feed solution prior
to contacting with the organic extractant solution in a succeeding
stage of extraction is at least partly decreased, instead of the conventional
expensive way of neutralization by the addition of an alkaline
neutralizing agent to the aqueous solution, by ion exchange dialysis
with dialyzing water through an anion exchange membrane.
