Abstract: An image formation apparatus comprises a cap to cover the discharge ports of a recording head for discharging ink for the formation of images; rinsing liquid supply means for supplying rinsing liquid for rinsing the cap; and a rinsing liquid receptacle arranged to surround the cap for receiving and retaining the rinsing liquid. With the structure thus arranged, the image formation apparatus is able to prevent ink from being dried in the recording head, and at the same time, to rinse out ink and other dust particles adhering to the discharge port surface of the recording head, and to the cap, a member constituting the device to recover the discharging condition of the apparatus, thus preventing the adhesion of extracted substance resulting from the evaporation of water content in ink for the maintenance of stable ink discharges.

Abstract: Magnetic cytometry in a bulk liquid entails directing the liquid across an interpolar magnetic gap so as to deposit magnetically susceptible cells adjacent the gap. A selected gas, e.g., air, is then directed across the deposited cells (preferably after rinsing) to drive off excess liquid. A suitable cytometry apparatus (10) includes a syringe pump (15) for forcing bulk liquid from a holding reservoir (28) into a flow chamber disposed perpendicularly across the interpolar gap of a magnet. A second syringe pump (15a), which contains the rinse liquid, is equipped with a holding reservoir filled only part-way with the bulk liquid; the remaining portion is filled with the selected gas, which is forced through the flow chamber immediately after the rinse liquid. Preparation of cells for cytometry entails binding monoclonal antibodies to antigens that characteristically appear on the surfaces of target cell populations, and magnetically labeling the antibodies with a magnetic agent, preferably ferritin, to render the cells magnetically susceptible.

Abstract: A high power laser source having a preselected broad bandwidth, including a master oscillator providing a single-mode laser beam, a resonant electro-optical modulator and a source of radio-frequency (rf) modulation voltage, to produce a modulator output beam having sidebands spaced on each side of the nominal frequency of the single-mode laser beam. The bandwidth and the number of modes may be varied by controlling the voltage applied to the modulator. At least one additional modulator in series with the first provides for the addition of other sidebands overlaying those generated with just one modulator. In another embodiment of the invention, the modulator is installed in a PC MOPA (phase conjugated master oscillator power amplifier) configuration to provide modulation only on the return path of the beam from a phase conjugation device having a stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) medium. Because the electro-optical modulator is sensitive to polarization direction, it can be oriented to be effective only for the return beam, which has a different direction of polarization from that of the single-mode laser beam, thus optimizing the performance of the SBS medium.

Abstract: A hydraulic brake apparatus maintains a sufficient amount of brake fluid in a master cylinder (12) when a failure occurs in a high pressure brake fluid source (34) which provides a high pressure brake fluid to a wheel cylinder (52). The hydraulic brake apparatus generates a wheel cylinder pressure provided to the wheel cylinder (52) by using a high pressure brake fluid provided by the high pressure brake fluid source (34). The wheel cylinder pressure is controlled in response to a master cylinder pressure generated by the master cylinder (12). A fluid pressure control valve (18), having a spool (58) movable in response to the master cylinder pressure, connects one of the high pressure brake fluid source (34) and a low pressure brake fluid source (22) to the wheel cylinder (52) so that the wheel cylinder pressure is controlled in response to the master cylinder pressure. A low pressure source passage (24) connects the low pressure brake fluid source (22) to the fluid pressure control valve (18) so as to supply a low pressure brake fluid to the fluid pressure control valve (18). A low pressure source passage control valve (28) closes the low pressure source passage (24) when the high pressure brake fluid is not provided to the fluid pressure control valve (18).

Abstract: A hammer drill has a mode change-over mechanism (60) including a change link (61) with a horizontally elongated slot, an eccentric pin projecting from a mode selector switch and penetrating the slot. The change link (61) is moved vertically by rotating the mode selector switch, which in turn vertically moves a pair of change keys (48) secured to a holder of the change link, thus either engaging or disengaging the change keys (48) with or from a sleeve provided in a rotation transmission mechanism for transmitting the rotation of a motor (9) to the tool holder (17). In the engagement position, the rotation of the motor of the hammer drill is transmitted to a tool holder (17) while in the disengagement position, the rotation of the motor (9) is not transmitted. Also, the eccentric pin is engaged with a square recess formed in a lock ring which is fitted around the tool holder and urged backward by a compression spring. The eccentric pin is horizontally moved by rotating the mode selector switch, which in turn moves the lock ring in the axial direction, thereby couple or de-couple the lock ring to or from the tool holder (17).

Abstract: A video game is played on a video game system by
moving objects successively introduced into a game field in
one direction on a display screen, determining whether a
leading object or a leading cluster of objects introduced
into the game field reach a predetermined position in the
display screen or a memory, and ending the video game if the
leading object or the leading cluster of objects introduced
into the game field reaches the predetermined position. It
is determined whether objects of one type are successively
connected in the game field or not. The objects of one type
are removed from the game field if they are successively
connected in the game field. An object present ahead of the
removed objects in the direction is moved in a direction
opposite to the direction. An object indicated by a cursor
is exchanged for an object present in the game field.

Abstract: A servo system (110) positions a tape read head (112) for
following a magnetic tape track (22) by determining position information from a
composite signal (SP24) read from the tape (10) by the read head (112). The
servo system (110) includes the read head (112), a discriminator circuit (111)
that provides a drive signal (144) in response to the composite signal (SP24),
and a head positioner (114) that moves the read head (112) in response to the
drive signal (144). One frame of the composite signal in one embodiment
includes four sync pulses (t12-t26) followed by four position pulses (t28-t42).
Sync pulses have a pulse width (t24-t26) less than the pulse width (t40-t42) of
position pulses. The discriminator circuit (111) includes range check circuits
(126,128) that validate sync and position pulses and includes an arithmetic
circuit (132,138) that determines a ratio of sync-to-position time (t26-t42)
divided by sync-to-sync time (t26-t60). The discriminator circuit (111) provides
the drive signal (144) in response to a moving average of such ratios.
