Abstract: A multiple magnnication mode copying apparatus in- dudes a full and half-rate scanning mirror system (15, 41) and a lens (18) for forming an image of an object to be copied. The lens (18) may be shifted along its optical axis to any one of a plurality of predetermined positions to change the magnification mode of the apparatus, and at the same time shifted transversely of the optical axis by the appropriate amount for each of said predetermined positions in order to maintain one edge of the image adjacent one edge of the copy regardless of the magnification mode. The half rate mirror system (41) is also shifted so as to achieve the required conjugate lengths. The means for shifting the lens comprises a first cable and pulley system (81; 79, 80, 83, 84, 99), and the means for shifting the half rate mirror system comprises a second cable and pulley system (45; 50, 52, 53, 56), the two cable and pulley systems being driven by a single driving means (54). The single driving means drives the cable (81) of the first cable and pulley system, and the cable of the first cable and pulley system drives an interconnecting shaft (91). The cable (45) of the second cable and pulley system is driven, for shifting the half rate mirror system, by the interconnecting shaft (91).

Abstract: There is disclosed an apparatus and method for conjuncting and separating density differentiated components from a moving carrier liquid. The liquid to be treated flows through zigzagging separation passages 86 comprising cells 41 extending through a three-dimensional lattice 10 constructed of interconnected triangle pairs 12 each defining a cell 41 therebetween. The shear of the liquid is increased to induce component particle conjunctions by flowing the liquid through a narrow cell passage opening 42. The shear is then decreased as the liquid flows through the ever- widening cell 41 to a wide cell passage opening 43 to induce separation of the component particles. Heavy and light separated component particles are channeled to a lower side 60 and upper side 58, respectively, of the lattice 10 along zigzagging channels 95, 92, respectively.

Abstract: A recess of a predetermined thickness is formed in the bottom of a cylindrical vessel and a hole forthe liuqid-junction is formed at the center of the recess, to which is joined a resilient NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup> selective membrane. Since the NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup> selective membrane has a thickness larger by about 0.1 mm than the depth of the recess, the NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup> selective membrane is protruded out of the bottom of the vessel by so much. A polyester woven fabric on which urease is immobilized is attached to the vessel so as to cover the NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup> selective. membrane. Since the immobilized enzyme membrane is applied with an appropriate tension by the slightly protruded ion selective membrane, bondability between the two membranes can be improved.

Abstract: @ A non-evacuated photodiode for detecting far-uv radiation. The photocathode is a cylindrical element surrounded by an annular anode. The photocathode is constructed of a metal (e.g., nickel) that emits electrons only in response to far-uv radiation of 140 nanometer or shorter wavelengths. A window (e.g., magnesium fluoride) is positioned at the entrance to the photodiode, to filter out far-uv radiation with wavelengths shorter than about 100 nanometers. The window and photocathode material serve to make the photodiode sensitive to radiation in a wavelength range no greater than 100 to 140 nanometers. A high-temperature perfluoroethylene material is used as an insulating layer for spacing the window from the anode and for spacing the anode from the photocathode. The photodiode is used in a gas chromatography detector.

Abstract: The specification relates to an apparatus intended for panoramic X-ray photography of the area of the dentition and the jaws, the apparatus comprising a frame (1), a bearing part (2) which is linearly movable in relation to the frame part, and a support arm (10) which has been attached by means of bearings rotatably to the bearing part and which has at one end an X-ray film (11) and at the opposite end a source of X-radiation (12). The movements of the bearing part (2), the support arm (10) and the film (11) are mutually synchronized in such a way that an image of an area of the desired shape, for example an area the shape of the patient's dental arch, is obtained on the film during the movement. It is the object of the invention to provide the effect that the X-ray beam can be tilted to the desired angle in relation to the horizontal plane, whereby it is possible with greater sharpness than previously to photograph, for example, teeth slanted in relation to the vertical plane. In accordance with the invention, the support arm (10) is attached with bearings to the bearing part (2) so as to be tiltable about an axis perpendicular to the rotational axis of the support arm so that, when the rotational axis is vertical the straight line connecting the source of radiation (12) and the film (11) is oblique to the horizontal level.

Abstract: An apparatus for controlling steering angle of the rear wheels of a 4-wheel vehicle comprises a first member (102) and a second member (111) which both move in response to the operation of the steering wheel, the second member (111) moving in the counter direction to the first member (102), an output shaft (14) controlling the steering of the rear wheels, a resilient member (104, 108) disposed between the first member (102) and the output shaft (14), and a controlling means (112, 113, 114) disposed between the second member (111) and the output shaft (14). When the steering wheel is being operated at high speed force is transmitted from the second member to the output shaft (14) by causing the resilient member (104, 108) to be resiliently deformed and absorb the force exerted by the first member so that the output shaft (14) moves in the same direction as the second member. When the steering wheel is operated at low speed, the controlling means (112, 113, 114) damps the force from the second member (111) so that the force from the first member (102) is transmitted to the output shaft (14) through the resilient member (104, 108) and the output shaft (14) is moved in the same direction as the first member (102). The rear wheel steering angle is thus formed in a direction counter to the direction of the front wheel steering angle when the steering wheel is being operated at high speed, and when the steering wheel is being operated at low speed, the rear wheel steering angle is generated in the same direction as the steering angle of the front wheels.

Abstract: A resistor electrode type touch sensor having enhanced area of linear response by reducing the bow in perimeters of the sensor and the method of accomplishing the same. A resistive coating is applied to one surface of a substrate. Within this coating orthogonal electrical fields are produced to give coordinates of a selected position. Overlying, but spaced from, the resistive coating is a flexible pick-off sheet having a conductive layer facing the resistive layer which will contact the resistive coating when the pick-off sheet is touched at a selected position. A resistance element is positioned proximate, but insulated from, the perimeter of the resistive coating. Electrodes of a selected effective size and spacing are located along selected paths proximate the edges of the resistive coating. Each electrode is attached to the resistive coating and connected to selected positions along the resistance element to provide selected voltages to the resistive coating. The effective size and spacing of the electrodes, and the positions of connection to the resistance element, are selected to produce an effective voltage gradient at the electrodes that progressively decreases from corners of the sensor to the center line of each edge of the sensor to counteract any voltage drop along the resistance element when voltage are applied thereto so as to substantially eliminate the bow of electrical fields produced in the resistive coating.
