Patent EP-1227473-A2 (EP)
Inventor: TANASE KENJI
IPC: G11B7/135
Filed: 1997-05-15
Abstract: An information recording and reproduction apparatus
for a magneto-optical medium includes a synchronizing
signal generation circuit (44) for generating a
synchronizing signal to provide a pulsed laser beam at the
time of reproduction according to an internal clock
obtained from a reproduction signal. The laser beam is
driven on/off according to the synchronizing signal at the
time of reproduction to have the laser spot on the signal
plane prevented from being enlarged, so that the
reproducible domain is smaller than the domain of when a
laser beam is continuously emitted. In reproduction, an
optical superresolution method is applied simultaneous to
provision of a pulsed laser beam to allow reproduction of
higher density. An external synchronizing signal
generation circuit (46) for generating an external
synchronizing signal according to a wobble on a surface of
a recording medium can be used instead of a synchronizing
signal generation circuit according to an internal clock.

Abstract: A remote care service system comprises the care center (attended by a care
worker), a first-aid center, and the plurality of home subsystems, each comprising a relay
terminal and at least one wireless care recipient monitoring terminal disguised as an
attachment-arousing and/or familiar article. The care and first-aid centers and the wireless
terminals are accessible to a communication network such as the Internet. The relay
terminal relays a communication between an associated wireless terminal and the center
equipment. The wireless terminal tries an interactive communication with the care
recipient by using a predetermined phrase to judge whether the care recipient is normal. If
not, then the wireless terminal sends an abnormality report to the first-aid center, which
responsively dispatches emergency men to the care recipient's home. Judgment the care
recipient's health condition interactively with the care recipient enhances the reliability of
the judgment.

Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus for and a method of reclaiming molding
sand capable of increasing a recycling efficiency of used molding
sand and of highly enhancing the purity of a reclaimed molding
sand. By crushing a lump of molding sand segregated from a molding
box, used molding sand can be formed. In order to remove coking
agents sticking on a surface of the used molding sand, an impeller
disposed in a rotatable grinding drum is rotated after charging
the used molding sand into a casing in which the rotatable grinding
drum is disposed. The coking agents sticking on the surface of
the used molding sand are removed due to collision and a mutual
frictional rolling contact between the used molding sand and the
rotatable grinding drum with the aid of rotational force of the
impeller after having accomplished charging the used molding sand
toward the impeller. Fine powders of the coking agents segregated
from the used molding sand are exhausted through a dust collecting
port together with external air introduced into the casing through
an inlet pipe of a rotational shaft disposed in operative association
with a motor at the center of the casing.

Abstract: A blower having a fan mounted perpendicularly relative to an airflow
discharge port. The fan is disposed within a volute formed in the housing at a rear
area of the housing. This places the volute slightly behind the user's leg or hip when
the blower is suspended or being held by a user along one side of the user's body.
This significantly increases the ergonomics, efficiency and comfort of the blower by
allowing the blower to rest more comfortably along the user's side without
interference from the volute portion of the housing. This also allows the motor to be
located directly underneath the handle of the housing to provide a better balance and
feel to the housing when the user is holding onto the blower via the handle.

Abstract: The patent discloses a signal processing technique for determining the fast
and slow shear wave polarizations, and their orientation, for acoustic waves in an
anisotropic earth formation. The signal processing method decomposes composite
received waveforms a number of times using a number of different strike angles.
The decomposed signals are used to create estimated source signals. The estimated
source signals are compared in some way to obtain an objective function. Locations
in a plot where the objective function reaches minimum values are indicative of the
acoustic velocity of the fast and slow polarizations within the formation.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for tracking signals in a wireless communication system. In one embodiment, a base station includes a rake antenna having multiple fingers. When any of the fingers goes out of lock, the base station waits a predetermined time period and then adjusts the lock detect filter. The adjustment is based on comparison of received signal energy to an adjusted energy threshold. The comparison may result in an increased energy level of the filter. In one embodiment, if a mobile station is in soft hand-off, the base station ignores the lock state of the fingers and transmits power control information based on the received signal energy. If the mobile station is not in soft hand-off a predetermined power control pattern is applied for gradual power adjustment.

Abstract: The invention relates to a resonance trap (8) for suppressing electromagnetic coupling phenomena for a line (1), which resonance trap includes a conductor (10) which extends parallel to and along a part of the length of the line (1). Conventional resonance traps (8) have the drawback that a direct connection exists between the RF line and the individual resonance traps (8). It is an object of the invention to provide a resonance trap (8) which enables a modular assembly on the line (1). The object is achieved by means of a resonance trap (8) of the kind set forth in which inner conductors (10) extend parallel to the line (1) and in which outer conductors (11) extend parallel to the inner conductors (10), said inner conductors (10) being arranged at a radial distance from the line (1) which is smaller than that at which the outer conductors (11) are arranged and the outer conductors (11) being arranged to cover at least partly the inner conductors (10) in the radial direction relative to the line (1). This offers the advantage that the connection between the resonance trap (8) and the line (1) is dispensed with.
