Inventor: UEKI YASUHIRO
IPC: G11B7/00
Filed: 1997-09-16
Abstract: The present invention measures first and second
detection signals respectively obtained at two focuses
during a focus search by means of an optical head 2. Then,
a type of a disk-shaped optical record medium is determined
by a microcomputer in a system controller 7, from a
comparison between characteristics of the first and second
measured detection signals. Moreover, the present invention
can measure an amplitude and a frequency of the
detection signal obtained at the focus during the focus
search to thereby determine the type of the disk by using
the measured result. After the parameters are set in
accordance with the determined result, the focus servo
control is turned on. The present invention comprises a
selecting means for suitably switching and selecting
between two types of tracking error signals, measures first
and second detection signals respectively obtained at two
focuses during a focus search, determine a type of a disk-shaped
optical record medium by using the first and second
measured detection signals and then controls the selecting
means in accordance with the determined disk type.
Moreover, the present invention measures an amplitude and
a frequency of the detection signal obtained at one focus
during the focus search, determines the disk type by using
the measured result and then controls a timing at which a
servo control is turned on in accordance with a conformity
of a lens to the disk.

Abstract: A wheelchair incorporates a tilt mechanism with a center of gravity
compensation by employing a rotary actuator (50). the actuator (50) is secured to the
underside of the seat (24) and has an arm (52) pivotally secured to the frame. A seat
pivot axis (34) is located on a movable member (38) that allows the axis (34) to shift
from a rear portion of the wheelchair toward a front portion as the seat is tilted from
an upright position to a tilted position. This ensures that the center of gravity of the
user is maintained within the wheelbase of the chair, i.e. compensates for center of
gravity.

Abstract: A scroll fluid machine having an orbiting scroll positioned at the center in
an axial direction of an eccentric shaft portion of a driving shaft for improving
abnormal wear of tip-seals or fluid leakage at the tip-seals due to uncontrollability
of clearances at the tips of spiral wraps caused by an unfixity of an orbiting scroll
on a driving shaft on a conventional scroll fluid machine. Axially rigid bearings
are engaged with the driving shaft at two places, one for a stationary scroll and the
other for the orbiting scroll so as to prevent the stationary scroll and the orbiting
scroll from moving on the driving shaft in the axial direction. Thus, a structure
improving the above abnormal wear of the tip-seals or fluid leakage at the tip-seals
by equalizing pressure on the tip-seals can be provided, thereby ensuring
smoother orbital movement of the orbiting scroll.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for successfully extruding
polymers that have relatively high Deborah numbers is
disclosed. Specifically, the invention is directed to an
extrusion die for manufacturing viscoelastic and similar
polymers while reducing or eliminating die swell. These
polymers typically exhibit Deborah numbers that are in the
range of 20 to 30 as compared to 1 to 5 of styrene
butadiene, as well as high elasticity or elastic modulus.
The method and apparatus can be used to manufacture
xerographic toner that has a relatively low melting
temperature, which can cause a reduction in the power
consumption of a printer or copier, and can increase the
life of some of the fuser components contained within the
machine. More importantly, use of toner particles created
using the present invention can reduce or eliminate the
phenomenon known as "vinyl off set," which causes the
transfer of a hard copy image onto a vinyl material.

Abstract: To set a consistent characteristic lateral profile in a paper web, the weight cross section profile is measured and adjusted by setting the sectional pulp density at the stock inlet. The lateral formation profile is then set by amending the specific pulp throughput at the delivery jet of the stock inlet. Simultaneously or subsequently, the dimensions of the delivery jet are increased or decreased at points where there is a raised pulp throughput. The change in the delivery jet is proportional to the change in the specific pulp throughput and, after setting, the flow is at the required lateral speed profile. At least one of the setting steps is effected by a control circuit. Additional chemicals are added pref. at the edge zone, to delay and/or increase the water extraction rate from the pulp. The variations in the specific pulp suspension flows are through sectional extraction or addition of a fluid in the Z-direction, together with filling materials where there are zones with a higher throughput. The technique is especially for a paper making machine with a double fourdrinier.
