Patent EP-1096120-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KASAI AKIHITO
IPC: F02N19/02
Filed: 2000-10-24
Abstract: Since the starting of an engine (2) at a lower temperature
is troublesome, the temperature of the engine (2) is measured
by a sensor. When the measured temperature is lower than
a reference temperature, the pump is first switched on for
circulating a thermal medium. This permits the thermal
medium to transfer heat of the hot water stored in a hot
water storage tank (17) to the engine, hence warming the
engine, decreasing the viscosity of the oil, and preventing
the generation of dew in the engine to ease the start up
of the engine.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus (10) comprises an imaging drum
(300) for holding print media (32) and donor material (36) in registration on the
imaging drum (300). A print head (500), driven by a lead screw (250) and stepper
motor, moves along a line parallel to a longitudinal axis (X) of the imaging drum
(300) as the imaging drum (300) rotates. The print head (500) is brought
repeatably to a mechanical registration position using sensors. For coarse
positioning, the print head (500) is moved to a first linear sensor position, with the
drive motor operated in full-step mode. For fine positioning, the drive motor is
then operated in microstepping mode, during which a second sensor detects
rotational orientation by detecting a rotational indicator mounted on the lead screw
(250). The rotational indicator permits straightforward adjustment for fine-tuning,
being adjustable to any one of a number of fixed positions relative to lead screw
rotation.

Abstract: A serial protocol which enables a printer control
unit (102) to communicate with a number of printheads
(104-110) over a clock wire (116) and a data wire (114).
In sync with pulses on the clock wire, the printer
control unit transmits the following bits over the data
wire: at least one read/write bit, at least one pen ID
(which identifies one or more of the printheads), at
least one address bit, and at least one data bit. The
printheads determine whether the transmitted pen ID
matches their own pen ID. If so, and the at least one
read/write bit transmitted by the printer control unit is
indicative of a read operation, a printhead will read
data from a register (404) which is determined by the at
least one address bit transmitted by the printer control
unit, and then output the read/write bit, the at least
one pen ID bit, the at least one address bit, and the
data read from its register to the printer control unit.
The bits will be output on the data wire, and will be
transmitted in sync with pulses on the clock wire. If
the pen ID transmitted by the printer control unit
matches a given prinhtead's pen ID, and the read/write
bit transmitted by the printer control unit is indicative
of a write operation, the printhead will write the data
it receives from the printer control unit to a register
which is addressed by the printer control unit. The
printhead will also output the read/write bit, the at
least one pen ID bit, and the at least one address bit to
the printer control unit. The printhead may also read
the data it has just written to one of its registers, and
output the read data to the printer control unit as a
form of write verification.
