Abstract: A device for transferring a flow of disc-shaped objects, such as coins, from a reservoir to a delivery location at a higher level. This device is provided with a coin guiding passage that has its bottom positioned in an inclined plane, said passage being connected to the reservoir through a passage portion that has its longitudinal axis directed substantially horizontally and merging into a portion that rises towards said delivery location through a curved section of substantially 90°. To avoid hold up of the coin travel in the coin guiding passage, a number of control arms is provided within said curved section, said arms being adapted to rotate in the travel direction about an axis located adjacent the inside bend side wall of the curved section and extend substantially radially outwardly from said axis; in operation said arms extend between the successive coins in the coin guiding passage of the curved section, due to which the coins will 'round the curve' with more certainty.

Abstract: Disclosed is an imaging apparatus in which release time lag is
shortened by not performing focusing operation again, in the case that a
focused state is maintained after the focusing operation is performed once
and electric current is decreased to lengthen a battery life. 
     A CPU, according to the focusing instruction manipulation,
compares present image data which is obtained before the performance of
the focusing operation and immediately after the focusing instruction
manipulation and in which a focus lens is located at the last focal position
detected by the last focusing operation with last image data which is
obtained during the last focusing operation or immediately after the last
focusing operation is finished and in which the focus lens is located at the
last focal position, and decides whether or not a focused state since the last
focusing operation is maintained. When the focused state is not
maintained, the CPU does not drive the focus lens or narrows a driving
range of the focus lens.

Abstract: To provide a load sensor hardly causing error in weight measurement even when the
environmental temperature of the load sensor varies, portions of a flexible substrate (50),
on which strain gauges (54a'-54d') partially composing a sensor (50) are formed, are
folded and adhered to the back of the sensor plate (51) with adhesive. Therefore, the
strain gauges (54a'-54d') are disposed at portions of the back of the sensor plate (50)
corresponding to the strain gauges (54a-54d), respectively. When the sensor plate (51)
is subjected to a bending load, a variation in distortion, having a variation amount
substantially equal to that undistortion between the strain gauge (54a) and the strain
gauge (54c) and having an opposite sign, is generated between the strain gauge (54a')
and the strain gauge (54c'). The variation in resistance due to the variation in
temperature between the strain gauges (54a,54a') and between the strain gauges
(54c,54c') can be canceled by the bridge circuit, resulting in no or little
variation in output. An electromagnetic shielding is used with flexible substrate (50).
Used with a seat weight measuring apparatus to control seat belt devices and
airbag devices.

Abstract: Disclosed is a handoff processing method capable of restarting fast
communications. The handoff processing method stores in a handoff buffer
Host Control Interface data and transmission data upon communications
in a state where an Access Point is interlinked with an external device (S420).
Further, the method forwards the HCI data and the transmission data buffered
in the handoff buffer to a new Access Point transmitting a message
indicating setup completion of a connection if the message indicating setup
completion of a connection with the external device is transmitted from the
new AP after a handoff occurs as the external device moves (S460). Accordingly,
throughputs are not lowered despite handoff occurrences in poor wireless
channel environments, so that service quality can be enhanced.

Abstract: The device for synthesizing a frequency in the range (F1,F2) with a step (deltaF) compries a frequency synthesizer (10) with variable step of a frequency in the range (F3,F4), a divider (11) with variable rank (Nb), a block (12) for the control of output frequency, and a filter (13). The control block (12) delivers three control signals, that is for the control of the frequency of the synthesizer (10), for the control of the step of synthesis, and for the control of the division rank of the divider (11).  The frequency synthesizer (10) with variable step is a synthesizer with a phase-locked loop (PLL) with fractional step. The variable rank (Nb) of the divider (11) takes the values N1,N2,...,Np, which follow an arithmetical progression, and the maximum frequency of the synthesizer is given by F4 = N1.F2 where N1 is the lowest value of the sequence, and the frequency F3 is a function of N2. The value of the frequency F3 is substantially equal to (N1/N2).F4, or slightly below it. The division rank (Nb) takes values N1,N2,...,Np, which follow a progression which is non-arithmetic, and the frequency F3 is substantially equal to or below a.F4, where a is the lowest value obtained by dividing two consecutive elements of the sequence; the division rank (Nb) is chosen higher. The device also comprises a mixer receiving the output signal of the synthesizer and a mixing signal. The method (claimed) for the frequency synthesis with high spectral purity is implemented by the device (claimed). The modification of controls of the divider and the synthesizer with variable step is simultaneous. The ratio of the reference frequency of the synthesizer and the frequency step, that is Fref/(deltaF), is the PPCM of the sequence N1,N2,...,Np.
