Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a plasma display panel, and more particularly, to an apparatus for energy recovery of a plasma display panel. According to an embodiment of the present invention, an apparatus for energy recovery of a plasma display panel, which includes front and rear substrates confronting each other, a pair of transparent electrodes provided to a confronting surface of the front substrate, metal electrodes provided to a pair of the transparent electrodes, respectively, a dielectric layer covering both of the transparent electrodes and the metal electrodes, a protective layer coated on the dielectric layer, an address electrode provided to a confronting surface of the rear substrate, a dielectric layer covering the address electrode, a barrier rib formed on the dielectric layer, a discharge cell partitioned by the barrier rib, and a fluorescent layer coated on an inside of the discharge cell, includes a panel, an energy recovery circuit charging the panel capacitor using energy charged within an inductor, the energy recovery circuit recovering the energy from the panel capacitor, the energy recovery circuit supplying the panel capacitor with a clamping voltage enabling a potential of the panel capacitor to be constantly maintained and a controller controlling the energy recovery circuit to supply the clamping voltage to the panel capacitor within a period taken to discharge a current of the inductor to a current level higher than zero from a maximum value. Therefore, the present invention advances the charging timing point of the panel capacitor prior to a timing point of discharging the current I L  of the inductor L down to zero or charging the panel capacitor Cp up to the sustain potential Vs, thereby enabling to reduce the charging time of the panel capacitor and to minimize the plasma discharge delay within the cell of PDP.

Abstract: Disclosed is an engine starting system for automatically stopping an engine which includes: fuel injection control means for controlling a fuel injection amount and a fuel injection timing in each of a plurality of fuel injection valves adapted to inject fuel directly into a corresponding plurality of cylinders; ignition control means for controlling each ignition timing of a plurality of spark plugs provided in the corresponding cylinders; alternator designed to be driven by the engine and operable to allow an output current therefrom to be a predetermined target output current; and the rotational speed detecting means for detecting an engine speed. The engine starting system comprises: automatic stop control means operable, upon satisfaction of a predetermined automatic engine stop condition, to control the fuel injection valves to interrupt the fuel injection for maintaining an operating state of the engine, so as to automatically stop the engine; and automatic engine start control means operable, upon satisfaction of a restart condition for restarting the automatically stopped engine, to allow the fuel injection valve of at least the cylinder in the state after being automatically stopped in an expansion stroke, to inject fuel into the cylinder, and allow the spark plug of the cylinder to ignite an air-fuel mixture and induce combustion in the cylinder, so as to automatically restart the engine. In the engine starting system, the automatic stop control means is operable, during the automatic engine stop control, to set the target output current of the alternator at a predetermined relatively large initial value and then determine a decrement from the initial value of the target output current depending on the level of lowering in engine speed occurring after the interruption of the fuel injection. The engine starting system of the present invention can stop a piston at an adequate position through the automatic engine stop control in a simplified structure to allow the stopped engine to be reliably restated.

Abstract: A building construction of wood is based on a framework of wooden battens which are arranged in several layers with mutually intersecting battens, and which are displaced from each other in such a manner that places at which there is through-going wood in the transverse direction do not generally arise at the intersecting areas. In corner areas between adjoining framework planes, the ends of the battens are adapted to form part of a labyrinth assembly. In places where a high filling with wooden parts in the transverse direction arises, the formation of cold conductors is, however, counteracted by the intersection of heat-insulation layers between two or more of the wooden parts.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of generating magnetic reference patterns on a disk or other magnetic media. This involves writing a first magnetic reference pattern to the disk with a servo writer. The disk may then be transferred to a hard disk drive. Control circuitry within the hard disk drive may recognize the first magnetic reference pattern and then position a RW head within the hard disk drive based on the first magnetic reference pattern. As the RW drive is accurately positioned based on the first magnetic reference pattern a second magnetic reference pattern may be written to the disk using the RW head. The RW head location is determined based on the velocity and phase between the read-write head and servo setter marks contained within the first magnetic reference pattern.

Abstract: A contact is formed of a tip end portion (11) approximately cylindrical as a whole in shape, having at one end a contact end to come into contact with a circuit under test, and a base portion (12) provided to be opposed to and kept apart from the other end that is opposite to the contact end of the tip end portion. By pressing the tip end portion into contact with a circuit under test (20), the tip end portion and the base portion are brought into contact with each other, and further pushing causes dislocation at the contact surfaces (14,15) so that the tip end portion is moved in a direction parallel to a surface of the circuit under test. Therefore, when the contact probe is pressed into contact with the circuit under test, the contact end of the contact probe is moved such that it scrapes off the surface of the circuit under test to break the insulating film on the surface, resulting in reliable contact with the circuit under test.
