Abstract: While preparing a photographic emulsion a conductivity reading is continuously or periodically taken from the batch during creation. The conductivity of the batch is compared to a standard plot of conductivity versus time representing an ideal batch preparation process. When conductivity of the batch deviates from the standard plot by more than a pre-determined level, an operator can discard the batch, compensate for the deviations, identify the cause of the deviation for use in correcting existing processes and procedures or optimizing future procedures, or compensate for the deviations.

Abstract: The magnitude of an amount of correction of unbalance at each axially opposite end face of the rim-fitted tire and the position on a circumference of each of the rim end faces are measured by means of an unbalance measuring machine for simultaneously measuring an amount of correction of static unbalance and an amount of correction of dynamic unbalance. The magnitude of the amount of correction of static unbalance, the position of an amount of correction of static unbalance on a rim periphery for minimizing a magnitude of an amount of correction of residual dynamic unbalance, the magnitude of the amount of correction of residual dynamic unbalance, and the position of the amount of correction of residual dynamic unbalance on the circumference of each of the rim end faces are calculated on the basis of the magnitude of the amount of correction of unbalance and the position of the amount of correction of unbalance on the circumference of each of the rim end faces measured. Magnitudes and positions of two divided amounts of correction of static unbalance on the circumference of the opposite rim end faces are calculated, the provision of the divided amounts of correction of static unbalance being equivalent to a case in which a balance weight whose weight is equivalent to the magnitude of the amount of correction of static unbalance is fixed at a position on the circumference of the rim of the amount of correction of static unbalance. Balance weights of the weight equivalent to the magnitudes of the divided amounts of correction of static unbalance are respectively fixed at the positions on the circumference of the opposite rim end faces of the divided amounts of correction of static unbalance. Also, and a balance weight of a magnitude corresponding to the magnitude of the amount of correction of residual dynamic unbalance is fixed at the calculated position on the circumference of each of the rim end faces, thereby correcting weight unbalance of the rim-fitted tire.

Abstract: To enable the coupling of a connector with a small force and eliminate coupling failures such as partial coupling. 
     By providing a process of a contact member 18 moving over peaked slanting surfaces, a female connector housing 10 is pressed in to its proper coupling position if a movable member 24 is pressed in after the female connector housing 10 has been inserted to a predetermined position. Conversely, if the movable member 24 is pressed in when the female connector housing 10 is not yet inserted to the predetermined position, the female connector housing 10 is pressed out. This eliminates the possibility of partial coupling of the female and male connector housings 10 and 20, thus the coupling failure is easily noticeable.

Abstract: In accordance with the invention, the index of refraction of a glassy material is increased by treating the material with hydrogen and applying heat. Specifically, the glass is exposed to hydrogen or deuterium at pressure in the range 14-11,000 p.s.i. and a temperature in the range 21-150°C for a time sufficient for the hydrogen to diffuse into the glass. The glass is then subjected to heat in excess of about 500°C, as by application of a flame or infrared radiation. The duration of heating can be less than a second. The result is a substantial and long-lived increase in the normalized refractive index. For example, flame heating of H₂ loaded commercial GeO₂ doped optical fibers (AT&T Accutether single mode fiber) has produced normalized index changes Δn/n of 4x10⁻³. This process can be used to make and adjust a variety of optical waveguide devices.

Abstract: An image processing device comprises a picture element extraction circuit (4) for extracting picture signals in a matrix area composed of picture signals corresponding to density of pixels of an image, a first area determination circuit (5) for determining whether the image in the matrix area is in a photo area or a provisional character area, a second area determination circuit (6) for determining whether or not the image is a dot image, and a third area determination circuit (7). The first area determination circuit (5) determines whether the matrix area is a provisional character area or a photo area based on the maximum and minimum values of picture signals in the matrix area. The second area determination circuit (6) detects a continuous edge from picture signals of picture elements in the primary scanning direction and the secondary scanning direction in the matrix area. When the continuous edge is detected either in the primary or secondary scanning direction, the second area determination circuit determines the matrix area to be a character area. When it is not detected, the circuit determines the matrix area to an area other than the character area. The third area determination circuit (7) detects a plurality of the results of determination by the first and second area determination circuits, and determines finally whether the matrix area is a character area or another area based on the results of this determination.

Abstract: MSM-photodetectors are produced using implanted n-type Si and interdigitated electrodes (13, 14) deposited on the implanted surface (15). The implantation process decreases the carrier lifetime by several orders of magnitude. By implanting silicon with fluorine or oxygen, the bandwidth is increased relatively to unimplanted MSM photodetectors. Exemplary implanted photodetectors exhibited 3-dB bandwidths which were faster by an order of magnitude compared to their unimplanted counterparts. The detectors are thus compatible with multi-gigabit per second operation and monolithic integration with silicon electronics.

Abstract: A control system for an automatic transmission, comprising: a clutch for transmitting the rotation of an engine to the transmission mechanism of a speed change unit; a hydraulic servo for applying/releasing the clutch; starting state detecting means for detecting the vehicle starting condition in which at least one of the following conditions is dissatisfied: that the throttle opening is fully closed; that the brake pedal is depressed; and that the vehicle speed is substantially zero; throttle opening detecting means for detecting the throttle opening of the engine; applied/released state detecting means for detecting the applied/released state of the clutch; hydraulic control means for controlling the oil pressure to be fed to the hydraulic servo; and a control unit. When the starting state detecting means detects the vehicle starting state, the control unit detects the actual applied/released state of the clutch to determine the difference between the applied/released state and an ideal applied/released state read out from applied/released state characteristic storing means, thereby to set an oil pressure correction according to that difference. Next, an oil pressure for achieving the engaging characteristics of the clutch is read out from fed characteristic storing means. The oil pressure correction is added to the read oil pressure, and the sum is outputted to the hydraulic control means. As a result, even if an error occurs in the output of the control valve of the hydraulic control means or if an aging occurs in the clutch, the oil pressure is corrected by the oil pressure correction according to the difference between the actual applied/released state and the ideal applied/released state so that the engaging characteristics obtained can be approximate the ideal ones.
