Patent EP-1154424-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SMITH MARK A
IPC: G11B17/28
Filed: 2001-04-23
Abstract: A cartridge positioning mechanism for securing and ejecting media cartridges contained
by a magazine (201) that is fixably mounted within the cavity of an autochanger (110) includes
a rocker arm (303) pivotally coupled to a rear portion of a magazine (201) and a control spring
(323), having a lift and logic component, controls the rocker arm (303) to secure a cartridge
received within the magazine (2012) and eject a cartridge that needs to be removed. This
magazine structure provides a "push to insert" and "push to eject" process for securing and
removing a cartridge from a hard to reach magazine being permanently attached within a
cavity of a conventional autochanger.

Title: Switching power supply apparatus with active voltage clamp circuit
Inventor: YASUMURA MASAYUKI
IPC: H02M3/28
Filed: 2001-04-25
Abstract: An active clamp circuit is provided on the primary
side of a complex resonance type switching converter
having a parallel resonant circuit on the primary side
and a parallel resonant circuit or a series resonant
circuit on the secondary side. The active clamp circuit
clamps a parallel resonance voltage pulse generated
across a primary-side parallel resonant capacitor to
thereby lower the level of the parallel resonance voltage
pulse. Thus, withstand voltage of components such as
switching devices and the primary-side parallel resonant
capacitor can be lowered.

Abstract: Inwardly-directed projecting portions (2, 3)
are formed in a bent manner respectively at distal
ends of a pair of clamping piece portions (4, 5) which
are continuous with each other, and form a wire
connection portion (7) of a terminal (1). A conductor
portion (9) of a wire (8) is located on the inner sides
of the pair of clamping piece portions (4, 5), and
the pair of clamping piece portions are pressed over
an entire periphery into a circular shape, and are
extended in a peripheral direction, thereby causing
projecting extension portions (2', 3'), including the
projecting portions (2, 3), to bite into the conductor
portion. Before the pressing operation, the pair of
clamping piece portions (4, 5) may be provisionally
pressed to be curved, thereby causing distal ends of
the projecting portions (2, 3) to bite slightly into
an outer peripheral surface of the conductor portion
(9).

Abstract: Disclosed is a driver circuit for producing a voltage output in highly precise fashion with little consumption of power. The driver circuit includes a first follower transistor (111) and a first switch (131) connected between an output terminal (T1) and a high-potential power supply(VDD); a first current source (113) and a second switch (132) connected serially between the output terminal (T2) and a low-potential power supply(VSS); a second follower transistor (121) and a third switch (141) connected between the output terminal (T2) and the low-potential power supply (VSS); a second current source (123) and a fourth switch (142) connected between the output terminal (T2) and the high-potential power supply(VDD); and first and second gate bias control means (11 and 12) for supplying the first and second transistor(111 and 121) with bias voltages based upon an input signal voltage. At one timing in a low-potential data output interval, the first switch(131) is turned on, thereby causing the first transistor (111) to perform a follower operation to drive output voltage to the vicinity of a certain voltage defined in conformity with the input signal voltage. The second switch (132) is turned on at a timing subsequent to the one timing, thereby controlling the drain current of the first transistor (111) and driving the output voltage to the certain voltage highly precisely in conformity with the input signal voltage. At one timing in a high-potential data output interval, the third switch (141) is turned on and then the fourth switch (142) is turned on subsequently.

Abstract: A system dynamically maps (and translates) codes and identifier values of any type to corresponding codes and identifiers of other entities. A method for determining a specific identifier code for an object associated with a plurality of identifier codes by a corresponding plurality of entities involves receiving a first message including at least a first identifier code identifying an object. The first identifier code is extracted (310) from the received first message and a second message is generated (315) incorporating the extracted first identifier code. The second message is used for initiating (325) a search of an identifier code database mapping an identifier code associated with a first entity to a corresponding identifier code associated with a second entity. A second identifier code corresponding to the first identifier code is received (335) in response to communicating the second message for initiating a search of the identifier code database. The second message initiates a remote procedure for mapping the first identifier code to a corresponding second identifier code.
