Abstract: A vibration plate forms a part of a pressure chamber communicated with a nozzle orifice from which a liquid droplet is ejected. The pressure chamber is defined by first edges extending in a first direction with a first dimension and second edges extending in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction with a second dimension shorter than the first dimension. A piezoelectric vibrator is disposed on the vibration plate so as to oppose to the pressure chamber. The piezoelectric vibrator includes a drive electrode extending beyond one of the second edges, a first piezoelectric layer laminated on the drive electrode so as to extend beyond the second edges, and a first common electrode laminated on the first piezoelectric layer. A drive terminal is electrically connected to the drive electrode to supply a drive signal thereto.

Abstract: The present inventors found that a physiological effect of a particular DNA can be detected independently within mice into which a pool of various DNAs in various quantities has been introduced. This finding suggests that it is possible to identify a DNA having a particular physiological effect by successively fractionating a pool of various DNAs in various quantities using the particular physiological effect seen within a mammal as an index. Such a method of screening will have the advantage of saving much time and effort as required in conventional screenings such as those utilizing transgenic and knockout mice. Furthermore, the method of screening has the additional advantage of enabling the identification of a DNA having a physiological activity, for example, even when the cells producing a physiologically active substance cannot be maintained  in vitro  or in immunodeficient animals, or when the cells change their characteristics during passage and stop producing the physiologically active substance.

Every time the marking stamp is subjected to the action of the spring, the stamp receives an evenly high kinetic energy thereby causing an evenly high striking depth of the marking. The spring in association with the electric motor drive enables fast, precise and easily controllable execution of the individual working steps of the machine. The ensures a high marking repetition rate.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for controlling the same functions of a networked printer that can be manually selected from the front panel of the printer, but remotely through an interactive network board connectable to the printer via a bi-directional printer interface and connectable to a local area network via a local area network interface. A printer status request, for example, from an administrator's console, is issued on the local area network and directed to the interactive network board to cause the board to interrogate the printer over the printer interface for the status of the manually selectable functions, and to transfer the status of those manually selectable functions from the board onto the local area network. A command to alter the status of those manually selectable functions is issued on the local area network and directed to the interactive board, the command causing the board to transfer the altered status to the printer via the printer interface, whereupon the printer status for the manually selectable functions is altered. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A plane parallel plate 91 constituted with optical glass and disposed further frontward relative to an image-capturing element 10 is caused to swing and vibrate by alternately expanding and contracting piezoelectric elements 92a and 92c. As the plane parallel plate 91 becomes slanted relative to the image-capturing element 10, the angle of incidence of subject light 20 changes, causing the position of the subject image projected on the image-capturing element 10 to move from point A to point B. As a result, the image forming position vibrates parallel to the x-axis, thereby enabling the plane parallel plate 91 to function as a low pass filter for the spatial frequency manifesting along the x direction. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present methods and apparatus concern the detection and/or identification of target analytes using probe molecules. In various embodiments of the invention, the probes or analytes are attached to one or more cantilevers. Binding of a probe to an analyte results in deflection of the cantilever, detected by a detection unit. A counterbalancing force may be applied to restore the cantilever to its original position. The counterbalancing force may be magnetic, electrical or radiative. The detection unit and the mechanism generating the counterbalancing force may be operably coupled to an information processing and control unit, such as a computer. The computer may regulate a feedback loop that maintains the cantilever in a fixed position by balancing the deflecting force and the counterbalancing force. The concentration of analytes in a sample may be determined from the magnitude of the counterbalancing force required to maintain the cantilever in a fixed position.
