Abstract: An implantable pacemaker provides three types of hysteresis for use in dual chamber and/or atrial tracking modes, such as VDI, VDD, DDI, DDD, VDIR, VDDR, DDIR or DDDR. The pacemaker defines a basic atrial escape interval (AEI) that defines the maximum time between a ventricular event and a subsequent atrial event, as well as an AV delay (AVD) that defines the maximum time between an atrial event and the next ventricular event. The sum of AEI plus AVD thus sets the rate at which stimulation pulses are generated in the absence of sensed natural cardiac activity. A first type of hysteresis, atrial escape rate hysteresis, causes the AEI to be extended upon sensing natural atrial beats (P-waves). The increased AEI remains in force so long as natural P-waves continue to be sensed during the AEI. Should a P-wave not be sensed during the AEI, a stimulation pulse is generated and the AEI reverts to its initial value. A second type of hysteresis, atrial-induced AV delay hysteresis, extends the next AVD and shortens the AEI in response to sensing a P-wave, thereby keeping the pacemaker's programmed rate the same. A third type of hysteresis, ventricular-induced AV delay hysteresis, extends the next AVD and shortens the AEI in response to sensing an R-wave. Any desired combination of the three types of hysteresis may be programmably selected for use within the pacemaker.

Abstract: The invention relates to a keyboard for piano-like instruments which is used for practice purposes or in high-quality electronic instruments. The intention is to simulate the impression of piano playing. The keyboard is to be capable of use in any desired position. To this end it is proposed that a tension spring (1) which is long in relation to the key (2,2') and is adjustable in its tensile force be arranged virtually parallel to the key (2), one end of the tension spring (1) being fixed to a spring suspension approximately in the middle of the key (2, 2') and the other end being fixed adjustably on the frame. An advantageous embodiment of the keyboard according to the invention envisages that magnets (MT, MG) be arranged in each case on the keys (2, 2') and on the frame (6) of the keyboard in a manner such that, when the keys (2, 2') are actuated, they move past each other at a short distance apart. The magnets (MT, MG) have the same polarity, so that repelling forces arise as they move past. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention relates to a method and apparatus for accessing customer meters (50) and for controlling devices (48) over a telephone line. A suppressed ringing connection is established over a customer line between a central office (21) and customer station equipment. The connection is between a data accessing device such as a meter reading controller and a customer premises device such as a meter interface unit (30). Signals are exchanged over the connection between these two units without alerting the customer via a ringing signal and without changing the supervisory state of the customer's station equipment from on-hook. The connection can also be used for controlling devices such as air conditioning units, in order, for example, to avoid overloads in a power distribution system. The voice switching network (23) of the central office is used for making the connection between the meter control unit and the meter interface unit. Advantageously, this arrangement can allow a large number of utility meters and controlling devices to be accessed remotely using existing telephone plant.

Abstract: The printing device includes a dye tank (11-13) for containing a powdered vaporizable dye (C,M,Y), an entrance section (14) for liquefying the powdered vaporizable dye and a vaporizing section (17-19) for radiating a laser light beam onto the liquefied dye transported to it by the entrance section (14) for vaporizing the liquefied dye for thermal transcription of the vaporized dye onto a photographic paper (21). In this manner, printing may be made without employing an ink ribbon or a thermal head and hence the saving in power and the reduction in size and costs of the printing device may be achieved. Besides, the printing time may be shortened, while the size of the printing paper may be set freely. 
     The photographic paper (2) includes a light absorbing layer (212) between a receptor layer (211) and a photographic paper base (214). Since the light absorbing layer is capable of absorbing the light efficiently for evolving heat efficiently, the receptor layer may be heated directly to assure a high quality of the printed picture.

Abstract: An intrusion of air (22) into the ink chambers (24) of a printhead substrate (50) is a symptom of either a depleted ink supply (26) or a deprimed printhead substrate (50). When the printer (20) attempts to print with a depleted ink supply (30) or a deprimed printhead substrate (50), the printhead substrate (50) must absorb all of the energy dissipated in the ink chambers (24) to eject the drops. This causes the printhead substrate (50) to reach high temperatures. The present invention detects a depleted ink supply (26) and a deprimed printhead (50) by monitoring the temperature of the printhead substrate (50) and comparing this temperature with a threshold (84, 90, 96). When this temperature exceeds the threshold (84, 90, 96) for more than an allotted amount of time, then corrective action is taken.

Abstract: A ground structure for a shield wire that can withstand a pulling force to a certain degree includes notches formed through a peripheral wall of a housing defining a tubular member. Spring pieces are mounted respectively in the notches and project from the inner and outer peripheral surfaces of the housing. The housing is received in a shield cap, which is connected to a metal casing. When a shield wire, having an exposed braided wire exposed, is passed through the bore of the housing, the spring pieces contact the shield wire at the inner periphery of the housing and the shield cap at the outer periphery of the housing. Therefore, the braided wire and the metal casing are electrically connected together. Also, the shield wire is movable in an axial direction, so that the shield wire will not be broken even if a pulling force acts on the shield wire.

Abstract: The vascular resistance to blood flow through the hand is increased in an essentially uniform manner by the application of pressure to the hand. The pressure is applied by means of an inflatable bladder mounted on an arm board or within a non-expandable sleeve, mitten or glove, which bladder covers at least the palm of the hand. Controlled inflation of the bladder conveys pressure to the hand tissue to a degree necessary to compress vascular structures and obstruct or restrict blood flow. By occluding blood flow through the hand, more accurate invasive blood pressure readings can be taken in clinical situations where decreased hand vascular resistance occurs.

Abstract: In a head-mount display apparatus with which an observer can observe images displayed on display units arranged in correspondence with the right and left eyes of the observer while wearing the apparatus on his or her head, first and second image display ranges are defined on each display unit. An angular velocity detection unit detects the displacement of the head of the observer, and changes the positions of the first and second image display ranges on the display units relative to each other on the basis of the detected displacement information of the head. As a result, a natural display corresponding to the movement of the head can be attained in real time even under the condition of a limited image memory capacity.
