Patent EP-0389277-A2 (EP)
Inventor: LARSON BRENT D
IPC: G03B27/50
Filed: 1990-03-22
Abstract: An original document exposure device has means (12) for supporting an original (14). A slit exposure system illuminates a slit area on the original and includes a light source (16). Reflected exposure light from within a field of view of the original is directed toward a photosensitive medium (22). Relative motion is produced between the original and the exposure system to scan the exposure light and the field of view over the original. Reflector means (28) receive and diffusely reflect a portion of the exposure light. Adjustable positioning means position the diffuse reflector between the exposure system and the original to control the degree of bump exposure.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel polyol obtained by using a specified polyhydric alcohol, polyoxyalkylene polyol, aliphatic amine and/or alkamlamine as a raw material and adding an organic polycarboxylic acid or its anhydride and an alkylene oxide; a polyurethane resin prepared from said novel polyol and an organic polyisocyanate; a rigid polyurethane foam prepared by using a hydrochlorofluorocarbon or hydrofluorocarbon foaming agent which has very low public hazards; and a composite utilizing thereof. 
     The production of rigid polyurethane foam by using the polyol of the invention can be carried out in good operation efficiency and low public hazards. Additionally, properties of the foam thus obtained is equivalent to those of rigid polyurethane foams obtained by using conventional chlorofluorocarbons. Consequently, the rigid polyurethane foam of the invention is very useful for insulation materials and structural insulation materials.

Abstract: Processing apparatus has units (12,14,16) that receive fluid (18) for processing a strip or sheet (10) of photosensitive materials. A vessel (31,32,33) retains the fluid and a processing device (41,42,43) having an inlet (54) is submersed in the fluid in the vessel. The strip or sheet travels through a chamber (52) in the device. A pump (72) supplied the fluid to the vessel to a height so that a predetermined pressure is created at the inlet. The fluid flows from the vessel to the chamber to create a turbulent fluid flow in the chamber for processing the material as it travels through the chamber.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for permitting the consensual delegation of selected software command operations by one user to another user in a data processing system. An Affinity Activity Object (AAO) is established and associated with a selected user. A plurality of parameters are then listed within the Affinity Activity Object (AAO) and these parameters are then utilized to identify selected software command operations, an identification of those users for which the associated user consents to undertake those software command operations and a selected time frame during which such undertaking will be permitted. In response to a request for delegation of a software command operation, these listed parameters are then evaluated and only those selected software command operations satisfying the listed parameters are delegated to the associated user. By negotiating the establishment of an Affinity Activity Object (AAO) for both client and delegate users the delegation of software command operations may be efficiently controlled while allowing users to specify the degree and extent of an affinity relationship established thereby.

Abstract: When a mobile unit (21(p)) initiates a call for communication in a first cell of a first cell set identified in an overall service area of base stations or cell sites by a first area identifier and moves into a second cell of a second cell set identified by a second area identifier, the first area identifier is transferred (S3(n1)) from a first station (17(n1)) corresponding to the first cell to a second station (17(n2)) corresponding to the second cell. When the unit terminates the communication while present in the second cell, the second area identifier is transmitted (S3(n2)) to a central office (11) and to the unit if judged (S2(n2)) different from the first area identifier. Each station therefore comprises a transferring and a transmitting arrangement. Preferably, a channel disconnection signal (43) carries such a second area identifier. The communication can be terminated at a counterpart unit.

Filed: 1992-03-26
Abstract: There are provided an optical disk substrate formatted according to the zone formatted system, method for initialization thereof, and driving apparatus for initialization of the optical disk. The optical disk substrate is initialized while at least one track in the vicinity of the inner peripheral side and/or the outer peripheral side in the radial direction of the boundary between an optional zone and another zone situated on the outer peripheral side is left unused as a recording area. By virtue of this construction, at least one of the tracks having a high possibility of bringing about the pit shift or double transfer is left unused as a recording area. Accordingly, the information stored in a recording area can be read out without being influenced by the occurrence of the pit shift or double transfer, and thus it is possible to get rid of the occurrence of a burst error caused by such pit shift or double transfer.

Abstract: Color bleed (the invasion of one color into another on the surface of the print medium) using ink-jet inks is alleviated by employing zwitterionic surfactants (ph-sensitive or pH-insensitive) or ionic or non-ionic amphiphiles. The inks of the invention comprise a vehicle and a cationic dye. The vehicle typically comprises a low viscosity, high boiling point solvent, one or two amphiphiles at concentrations above their critical micelle concentration (cmc), while the dye typically comprises any of the dyes commonly employed in ink-jet printing. The amount of surfactant/amphiphile is described in terms of its critical micelle concentration (cmc), which is a unique value for each amphiphile. Above the cmc, micelles form, which attract the dye molecule and thus control the color bleed. Below the cmc, there is no micelle formation, and thus no control of the color bleed.
