Patent EP-1043630-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KURODA NOBORU
IPC: G03G9/087
Filed: 2000-04-07
Abstract: A toner containing toner particles has a particular
weight-average particle diameter, containing therein
toner particles with another particle diameter in a
predetermined number percentage of the number of the
toner particles. A releasing agent contained in the toner
particles has a particular endotherm ratio (Q/q), that is
measured, using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC),
wherein q is the endotherm (µV•min/mg) of the releasing
agent contained in predetermined classified and sampled
toner particles, assessed per unit amount of the sampled
toner particles, and Q is the endotherm (µV·min/mg) of
the releasing agent contained in the toner particles of
the toner in its entirety, assessed per unit amount of
the toner particles. A method of producing the toner, and
a method of forming images, using the toner, and a toner
container or cartridge containing therein the toner are
disclosed.

Abstract: A springless adjustable bread guard for a heating appliance requires no
springs for returning the guard to a desired position. The heating appliance includes a
fixed structure relative to the bread guard, and the bread guard includes a resilient
bread guard arm having a longitudinal axis and at least one cross member. Each cross
member is attached to the bread guard arm spaced apart from a first end of the cross
member and at a point along the longitudinal axis of the bread guard arm. The bread
guard arm is attached to the fixed structure to rotate about the longitudinal axis. The
bread guard operates responsive to a force applied to the arm to rotate a first direction
about the longitudinal axis so that one of the cross members contacts a portion of the
fixed structure and thereby applies a force to the cross member that causes the arm to
bow placing the bread guard in an inward position. The bread guard operates when
the applied force is removed to rotate a second direction about the longitudinal axis to
an outward position responsive solely to a return force generated by the bowed bread
guard arm.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a locking and unlocking mechanism of
a cable connector, consisting of a connector and a housing, and a method for
locking and unlocking the cable connector capable of providing a reliable
connection of a cable even when a cable connecting operation is carried out by
holding the cable. 
     The connector (10) is unlocked from the housing (30) by sliding the lock
release mechanism (13) from the set position to the release position when the
connector (10) is fitted in the housing (30). At the time of connecting the cable,
when the cable holding member is inserted into the housing while holding the
cable, the elastic beam portion (36) of the housing (30) is pushed to open by the
protrusion (25) of the lock release member (13), and the engaging hole (37) formed
in the elastic beam portion (36) is engaged with the engaging pawl (19) of the
cable holding member (12), and the connector is installed into the housing (30)
by moving the lock release member (13) to the set position by the elastic energy
of the lock release member from the elastic deformation caused by being

Abstract: There is provided a method for absorbing the moisture of
a composite material, which can absorb the moisture of the
composite material in a short period of time and which can provide
a moisture absorption distribution which is equal to that of a
composite material placed under actual environment. A time table,
which comprises a plurality of different environment conditions
for pressure, temperature and humidity, and periods of time
corresponding to the environment conditions, is previously
prepared. Then, a composite material is put in a pressure vessel,
and the environmental conditions in the pressure vessel are
changed on the basis of the time table. Thus, the moisture
absorption state of the composite material can be equal to that
after the elapse of predetermined years under actual environment.
In addition, it is possible to absorb the moisture of the composite
material in a short period of time by absorbing the moisture of
the composite material under an environment condition of high
pressure.

The back roller station includes a back roller for positioning the carcass relative to the saw as the cut is made. The  back roller is also movable in three directions, including horizontally in to contact the carcass, vertically down, and horizontally parallel to the carcass rail to match the motion of the saw. The back roller and saw are structurally independent, but are accurately driven to maintain the relative position of the saw and the back roller as the cut is made.

Chaque graphe de décision correspond à une conversation et inclut un certain nombre de noeuds dont chacun correspond à une portion de la conversation. Les noeuds incluent également au moins un contexte connectant les noeuds aux noeuds des enfants. Il en résulte que la sélection du contexte dirige la progression de la conversation. Les jouets sélectionnent un graphe de décision ou une conversation incluant la quasi-totalité des jouets comme participants. La conversation s'exécute alors au fur et à mesure que les jouets traversent le graphe de décision choisi. Au fur et à mesure qu'ils parcourent le graphe de décision, les jouets se retransmettent entre eux des messages via un dispositif d'émission et de réception. Les jouets restituent les parties de la conversation via un haut-parleur. Chacun des jouets inclut une architecture incluant une couche physique, qui inclut les circuits d'émission et de réception, et une couche application qui contient la forêt de graphes de décision ainsi qu'une liste de participants et une information d'identification destinée à un gestionnaire de conversation. Le gestionnaire de conversation diffuse des mises à jour à la liste des participants et au noeud de conversation.

Abstract: A current-limited low-impedance return path is provided between an isolated bus system and the primary supply that provides this isolated bus system. In a preferred embodiment, a voltage follower circuit with an input at ground potential supplies a controlled zero-voltage to a center-tap on the load side of an isolation transformer. This voltage follower circuit provides a low-impedance path for unbalanced communications signals, but is configured to present a high-impedance, or current-limited, path to short-circuit currents. In this manner, the common mode voltage changes that are caused by parasitic currents between the primary supply and the isolated bus system are minimized by providing the low-impedance path for these currents, and the isolation is maintained by providing the high-impedance path for short-circuit currents.
