Patent EP-1102278-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ALLGEYER THOMAS
IPC: G11B33/08
Filed: 2000-11-20
Abstract: A disk drive mounting system for isolating a disk drive assembly from machine
vibration and shock. In one embodiment, the system includes a suspension frame and a
disk drive assembly mounted to the frame using biased vibration isolation members, such
as springs, which are each substantially aligned through the center of mass of the disk
drive assembly. Accordingly, vibrational forces can be transmitted through the center of
mass of the disk drive assembly. Preferably, the disk drive assembly includes a mounting
chassis which holds a hard disk drive and includes openings through which damping
bumpers can extend. In this embodiment, the bumpers each have a base portion and an
extension portion, the extension portion extending through the openings in the mounting
chassis to limit the transfer of shock to the disk drive. The bumpers can be attached to the
suspension frame and/or to a protective cover for the assembly. Preferably, a slide bracket
is provided to allow the system to be easily mounted to a machine tool system surface.

Patent EP-1111452-A3 (EP)
Inventor: BAUER CHARLES LEO
IPC: B41M5/50
Filed: 2000-12-04
Abstract: A viscosity-increasing agent, capable of increasing the viscosity of
a film-forming polymer in an image-functional layer, is preapplied in a first
solution onto a web through a coating and drying process. When a second
solution containing the film-forming polymer is then coated on the web, the
viscosity-increasing agent diffuses through the applied second solution. As the
viscosity-increasing agent interacts with the film-forming polymer during this
diffusion process, the viscosity of the solution increases. The invention can be
used to improve the manufacture of ink-jet media, photographic or
photothermographic elements, and other imaging and image-receiving media.

Abstract: An object system (E) for generating an output
signal of an O 2  sensor (4) from a target air-fuel ratio
is expressed as a model including a response delay
element and a dead time element. Data of identified
values of parameters of the model are sequentially
generated by an identifier (11). Data of an estimated
value of the output signal of the O 2  sensor after a dead
time of the object system is sequentially generated by
an estimator (12). The target air-fuel ratio is
generated according to an adaptive sliding mode control
process performed by a sliding mode controller (13)
using the data of the identified and estimated values.
The air-fuel ratio of an internal combustion engine is
manipulated on the basis of the target air-fuel ratio
according to a feed-forward control process.

Abstract: A structure of support leg member having a pair of reinforcing pieces formed laterally
thereof, which is used with a seat slide device provided in an automotive seat, wherein an
inclinable portion is defined in the upper securing portion of the support leg member on which a
guide rail of the seat slide device is securely amounted. The inclinable portion allows the guide
rail to be inclined by a great load applied thereto in excess of a tolerable amount, thereby
protecting the seat slide device against damage. The inclinable portion, for instance, may
comprise an upward protuberant bead formed in the upper securing portion so that a pair of
spadngs are defined between the guide rail and a base portion of that upper securing portion such
as to allow inclination of the guide towards the center of the automotive seat. Alternatively, the
inclinable portion may be embodied by bending one or both of the two reinforcing pieces outwardly
to render the support leg member so less rigid as to be buckled slantwise by the foregoing great
load, thereby allowing inclination of the guide rail towards the center of the automotive seat.

Abstract: A method increases the spatial resolution of a source image based on an
auxiliary, co-registered image of a higher spatial resolution. Each of the source
and auxiliary images includes a plurality of pixels with corresponding spectral
intensities and the method includes reducing, identifying, deriving, subdividing
and modifying steps. Multiple auxiliary images can be used with the method. 
     In the reducing step, a spatial resolution of the auxiliary image is reduced
to a common resolution with the source image. Then in the identifying step,
corresponding groups of pixels at the common resolution in the source and
auxiliary images are identified. Then in the deriving step, a mapping function is
derived which relates the rate of change of intensity of each group in the auxiliary
image and the corresponding rate of change of intensity in the corresponding
group in the source image to the intensity vector. This map can be conditioned on
any number of auxiliary image planes. 
     In the subdividing step, each source pixel is subdivided. Then in the
modifying step, the spectral intensity of each subdivided source pixel is
modifying based on the map and the local intensity variations of the auxiliary
image. This results in increasing the resolution of the source image.
