Patent CA-2164244-A1 (CA)
Inventor: YANAGISAWA SHIGEKAZU
IPC: B41J2/355
Filed: 1995-12-01
Abstract: The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for driving and controlling a thermal head used in a printing device, such as a tape printer, in response to the temperature variations of the environment and the thermal head. According to the present invention, in the printing operation of the tape printer, measurements are made of the initial temperature T1 immediately after the power is switched on, the temperature prior to printing T2, and the ambient temperature of the thermal head each time the thermal head prints T3 (i). If the temperaturedifference between the initial temperature T1 and the temperature prior to printing T2 is small, the duration of the current signals provided to the thermal head iscontrolled in accordance with the temperature prior to printing T2. If the difference is large, the duration is controlled in accordance with the initial temperature T1 to reduce the duration. If the rate of the increase in temperature during printing T3(i) is large, the duration is controlled in accordance with the initial temperature T2 to reduce the duration. If the temperature during printing T3(i) exceeds a temperature which indicates overheating, the printing operation is aborted. Thus, the present invention allows for controlling the thermal head drive by means of the ambient temperature which is not affected by the heat generationof the thermal head and in accordance with the thermal state of the thermal head.

Title: Compression encoding apparatus and recording apparatus for compression encoded data
Inventor: TAKASHIMA MASATOSHI
IPC: H04N7/52
Filed: 1996-08-30
Abstract: In an encoding apparatus having a memory of diminished size for lowering the production cost, the memory stores input video signals made up of plural pictures including intra-pictures (I-pictures) and a scene change detector 101 detects change points of the input video signals.   An encoding unit 106 encodes pictures stored in the memory 102 by fixed length encoding for generating a bitstream.   A timing control unit 105 determines successive groups of pictures, each including at least an intra-picture, on the basis of the detection by the scene change detector 101, and controls the processing timing of fixed length encoding of each picture in the group of pictures by the encoding unit 106.  A rate control unit 107 sets a range from a picture next to an intra-picture to the next intra-picture as a range of the code generation rate in the encoding unit 106.  The rate control unit 107 controls the range of the code generation rate so that, if a scene change has been detected, the amount of the encoding information previously allocated to the intra-picture will be allocated to other pictures.
