IPC: G11B7/127
Filed: 2000-10-25
Abstract: A monolithic double-wavelength semiconductor laser diode
is provided in a DVD/CD compatible player to suppress
deterioration in the optical characteristics of a reading
light spot. A laser diode is a monolithic element which has
two light emitting points (21,22) on a single substrate for emitting
two different laser beams having different wavelengths with
each other. A central line of a main laser beam for use in
reproducing DVDs is positioned closer to the optical axis Y of
an optical system than a central line of a laser beam for use
in reproducing CDs. In another arrangement, the central line
of a main laser beam for use in reproducing DVDs is positioned
so as to be coincident with the optical axis Y of the optical
system.

Abstract: It is an object of the invention to prevent reduction in
output speed in the case where toner or the like adhered to a
transfer belt is transferred to a side of an image carrying body
and cleaning is performed by a cleaning device on a side of the
image carrying body. A toner image transfer apparatus (6) is
constituted by extending a transfer belt (63) between a first
transfer roller (61), which is brought into pressure contact
with a photoreceptor (2), and a second transfer roller (62)
disposed away from the photoreceptor and on a downstream side
in a sheet conveying direction, and a circumferential length
of the transfer belt (63) is set to be equal to or less than
a spacing between sheets conveyed (sheet spacing D) such that,
in the sheet spacing D, over which a sheet passes a transfer
position and which a subsequent sheet reaches, a cleaning
voltage is supplied to shift toner or the like, adhered to the
transfer belt (63), to the photoreceptor (2) to have the same
removed by a cleaning device (7) on a side of the photoreceptor
(2). An entire circumference of the transfer belt (63) enables
using the sheet spacing D to perform cleaning, thus ensuring
a favorable cleaning quality without reduction in output speed.

Abstract: An Adaptive Off-state (AO) control method (55) for use in conjunction with a
suspension system (10) including a controllable damper (22) interconnecting relatively
moveable members (12, 14) to reduce the transmission of vibrational forces
therebetween. Such suspension systems (10) are switchable between alternative on-and
an off-state in accordance with a primary control method (53) and/or a secondary
override control method (59). Sensors (48, 52) monitor the parameters of the
suspension system (10), such as the displacement, velocity, and acceleration of the
moveable members (12, 14). Damper command signals (107) are provided to the
damper (22) in the on-state (116) to adjust the damping characteristics thereof. In the
off-state, the damping signal in conventional systems is approximately zero or a
constant relatively low magnitude. According to the present adaptive off-state control
method (55), the off-state damping signal (109) to the controllable damper (22) is
modulated over time to make the off-state damping a function of the system inputs. In
a preferred embodiment, the modulation is a function of the real time or time-averaged
input disturbances to the system (10). In an alternative embodiment, the modulation is
derived from a user switch (57) that imparts a user variable Off-State Gain (OSG) to
the off-state damping signal (109) based on operator perceived ride characteristics.

Abstract: Apparatus, and associated method, provides for downloading an application with a selectable lifetime from an application database to a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal user's identification information and the selected lifetime for the application are stored in an application-license database. When the user seeks to download the same application on a subsequent occasion the user is able to download that application for a reduced fee if lifetime remains from when the application was first downloaded. In addition, the application may be configured to delete or uninstall itself from the mobile terminal when the selected lifetime for the application expires.

information is not required to be done and even when any
control signal packet from the originating-side local
unit arrives at the tandem unit, the packet is
transferred to the destination-side local unit without
undergoing termination of packet and concomitant call
processing control.

diameter of each coil is reversed at a predetermined
position on the longitudinal axis of the helical compression
spring, so as to provide the curved coil axis, such as the
coil axis curved in C-shape. For example, one section of
each coil having approximately a half of the circumference
of each coil, which is divided by a plane including the coil
axis, is increased in diameter, whereas the other one
section of approximately a half of the circumference of each
coil is decreased in diameter. The curved helical
compression spring may be mounted on a vehicle suspension.

Abstract: The curtain coating assembly (10), to coat the surface of a moving web substrate (U) with a paste or liquid coating (18) and especially a pigment suspension, has a jet unit (14) at the applicator (12) to deliver a coating curtain (18). At least one guide (22) is in the falling path of the coating curtain, which directs the coating over the whole curtain width over at least a part of its falling path. The web curtain coating assembly has a guide in the path of the falling coating curtain, which divides it into a path section (24) between the feed and the guide, and a second path section (26) between the guide and the moving substrate. The guide can be directly at the delivery jet. The variable length of the curtain coating which covers the guide is measured in the direction of its movement. The guide forms an included angle ( alpha ) of 5-30 degrees with the direction of the curtain coating free fall line. The surface (22a) of the guide, covered by the coating medium, forms an included angle ( beta ) with the end surface (22b) of the guide of 20-60 degrees . The guide can be a guide scraper against the substrate. The guide is pitched at an angle of 20-80 degrees in the required flow direction, and preferably 45-80 degrees . The end of the guide surface towards the moving substrate can be extended at an angle of 30-50 degrees . The guide can also cover the whole flow stretch for the coating medium, between the delivery jet and the moving substrate. The surface of the guide, towards the coating medium, has a hydrophobic character, or has a hydrophobic cladding of a treated glass fiber film. At least the end surface of the guide is free of hydrophobic cladding. The coating curtain flows over the upper surface of the guide, or along its under surface. At least one electrode can be at the guide, on the side away from the flowing coating. A suction box is at the moving substrate, in front of the contact line where the coating curtain strikes it, together with a scraper at the entry and/or exit side, with a scraping edge lying on the moving substrate. The scraper at the exit side can be formed by the coating guide. The coating curtain flows over the guide surface, in a length (l) of 1-200 mm and preferably 1-50 mm. The travel speed of the substrate is 1000-3000 m/min. for a paper web and 200-1000 m/min. for a cardboard web. The coating is applied in ready doses to the substrate surface. The delivery jet has a coating delivery rate of 2-200 l/min. per meter of the web width. The length (H) of the coating curtain is 5-400 mm and preferably 40-200 mm. The guide is of metal or plastics e.g. a plastics with reinforcement carbon or glass fibers. The guide has a thickness (D) of 0.2-1.0 mm. The guide is positioned at the applicator, at an angle to the moving substrate of 70 degrees , in either direction. The guide can have a convex or concave curvature, with a curved surface at a tangent to the free fall of the coating curtain, in either direction, at an angle of up to 70 degrees .
