Inventor: FURUKAWA ITARU
IPC: B41F33/10
Filed: 2002-07-24
Abstract: A printing machine provided allows even unskilled operators to perform ink and water supply control according to the contents of an image. While a reference image to be printed is segmented into a plurality of regions similar in contents, image data is obtained from printed matter and a color difference between the reference image and a print image is calculated. Ink and water (I/W) supplies are determined based on regional color difference data obtained by summing the color differences for each region. At this time, by adding correction of the regional color difference data based on the characteristics of each region and the contents of the image, and correction of the I/W supplies based on external factors and variables, even unskilled operators can perform rapid I/W supply control based on the contents of the image.

Abstract: An air-tight bailer is filled completely and closed at its open upper end with a flat
cap so that no ambient air is trapped in the bailer. A mounting member to which a rope is
secured for lowering and lifting the bailer is recessed with respect to the open upper end
of the bailer so that it does not interfere with the cap. A disc-shaped protuberance formed
on the bottom of the cap fills the recess. An annular groove around the recess receives the
rim of the open upper end to enhance an air-tight seal between the cap and the open upper
end. In a first embodiment, the bailer is emptied by piercing a thin membrane formed in
the cap with a spout device having a trailing end in fluid communication with a container.
A second embodiment eliminates the membrane and the spout device.

Abstract: An airbag module has an inflator (350) with at least one exit port (352) located on
one side of a body. Inflation gas exiting the exit port includes an axial component
of flow, which exits the exit port in an axial direction; and an airbag assembly

gas can substantially affect a trajectory of the inflating outer airbag. Inflation gas
flows within the inner airbag in at least the axial direction. The inner airbag has
first and second openings (306) to direct inflation gas into the inner bag with
components of gas flow exiting the second opening(s)at a skewed angle, while a

Inventor: TELLA RICHARD PAUL
IPC: G02B6/02
Filed: 2003-04-11
Abstract: The present invention involves the use of coupling fixtures (130) that permit
optical elements (140) to be aligned with planar waveguides (135c) of planar lightwave
circuits (115). In particular, alignment of the coupling fixtures (130) typically does not
require powering of the optical element (140) yet provides a degree of alignment that is
comparable to that obtained by active alignment techniques. The alignment process is
accompanied by an assembly process that may be performed at relatively high
temperatures. This typically makes it possible to use solder for attaching the optical
element (140) to the planar lightwave circuit (115) while retaining alignment accuracy.
This is advantageous since soldering typically is the preferred choice for assembling
components, such as single-mode devices, that require a relatively high degree of
alignment precision together with good mechanical rigidity.
