Abstract: A liquid recording apparatus ejects droplets of liquid onto a recording medium. The apparatus has multiple liquid emitters (46) whose emissions are activated (51,66) by multiple power pulses. The power pulses are controlled to maximize the number of emitters which can be simultaneously energized while keeping the instantaneous power usage within prescribed boundaries. The multiple emitters are organized into banks of emitters (96) whose numbers are small enough that all emitters within a bank can receive a correct level of power simultaneously without exceeding capacity of a shared power source. A circuit (67) interleaves the power pulses to the emitters so that no bank of emitters are receiving power at the same instant of time. In this fashion, the recording apparatus can achieve maximum recording speed while employing the smallest capacity power source (66) which is practicable.

Abstract: A connector for a printed circuit board having a housing (20) defining a hollow. There is a plurality of slits (22) in the back wall (25) and a terminal (30) is inserted in each one. The terminal (30) includes a pressure piece (32) which is capable of flexing under the influence of the introduction of a retainer (40) so that it is spaced apart from the circuit board (10). The gap therebetween is greater than the thickness of the board (10). After the retainer (40) and circuit board (10) have been fully inserted, the pressing piece (32) returns to its rest position, in which the gap is equal to or less than the thickness of the circuit board (10). This provides a good electrical contact between the pressing piece (32) and the board (10). 
     The retainer, (40) which may be integral with the board (10), has a cavity (41b) which receives a portion of the circuit board (10). Attached thereto is a connecting member which enters the hollow and presses the terminal (30) into a flexed position separated from the board (10). In this way, the terminal (30) is out of contact with the circuit board (10) until the board (10) has been fully inserted. This not only prevents damage to the board (10) by abrasion, but also allows entry of a very flexible board (10) without any danger of crumpling, even if the assembly is carried out with one hand.

preventing function. 
     A movable member 30 movably provided in a male connector housing along
an engagement direction is biased by coil springs 40 toward a front end position
with respect to the engagement direction. When the engagement is stopped when
connector housings 10, 20 are partly engaged, the connector housings 10, 20 are
separated away from each other by the forces of the coil springs 40, thereby
informing an operator that the connector housings 10, 20 were partly engaged.
The movable member 30 is formed with an engaging hole 31 which extends in a
direction normal to its moving direction and is engageable with a lock arm 12
provided on the female connector housing 10. By providing an engaging portion
with the lock arm 12 in the movable member 30, the connector housing can have
a simpler construction and can be easily produced unlike a prior art male connector
housing which has a complicated construction because the engaging portion is
provided therein.

Abstract: An automatic gain control method and device capable of maintaining the gain within a predetermined range first amplifies (1) an input analog signal (IN) from a microphone or the like, then samples (4) the amplified analog signal while comparing the voltage thereof with a predetermined reference voltage. When the number of times that the voltage of the amplified analog signal is higher than the reference voltage exceeds a predetermined number, the gain of the amplified analog signal is varied stepwise in response to every excess beyond the predetermined number of times. Consequently, an input amplifier of a sufficient bandwidth and an A-D converter are no longer necessary, hence allowing manufacture of an improved device composed of a single-chip CMOS integrated circuit.

Abstract: A single pass ROS system provides a plurality of latent images which may subsequently be
developed in different colors. The ROS units (100) are initially aligned so that each color image (l 1 ,
l 2 , l 3 , l 4 , l n ) is precisely registered at the same relative position along the exposed area of a
photoreceptor belt (104). The alignment is accomplished by forming a pair of opposed alignment
apertures (140, 142) in the surface of the belt (104) and detecting coincidence or lack of coincidence
of signals generated by the beginning and end of each scan line. The correction is enabled by
rotating output window (134) in the ROS system, a transmissive optical component with no optical
power, subsequent to the ROS, to create the required rotation of the projected scan line. Once the
initial X- and Y-axis alignments are complete, subsequent alignment is maintained through
subsequent passes by checking the positions of the previously identified pixels as they advance past
additional lead edge apertures (140a, 140b, 140c) formed in the process direction along the belt
surface.

Abstract: A system is for detecting the passage of multiple
sheets along a feed path. The system includes a sensing
station (12) through which the feed path passes and which
has a light emitter (48) and an optical sensor (50) arranged
to sense light transmitted from the light emitter through an
item comprising a single or multiple sheet present at the
sensing station. The optical sensor (50) provides a voltage
output whose magnitude is dependent on the intensity of the
transmitted light received by the optical sensor. This
output is applied to the first input (58) of a log ratio
amplifier (60). A voltage representative of the output of
the optical sensor when no item is present at the sensing
station (10) is applied to the second input of the amplifier
(64). The output of the amplifier (60) is applied to data
processing means (52) which then determines whether a single
or multiple item is present at the sensing station. 
     This system can be used in place of more complicated
and expensive multiple sheet detect systems such as those
incorporating co-operating rollers.
