Abstract: An image-forming apparatus is provided with: a
photoconductor drum having a surface on which a toner image
is formed, a transfer drum for transferring the toner image
onto a copying material by allowing the copying material to
contact the photoconductor drum, and a ground roller for
electrostatically attracting the copying material onto the
transfer drum prior to transferring the toner image onto the
copying material. The transfer drum is constituted by a
semiconductive layer and a dielectric layer that are stacked
on a conductive layer. Supposing that the nip width between
the photoconductor drum and the transfer drum is L1, the
rotation speed of the two drums is Vp, and the time
constant, which is represented by a product of the
resistance and the capacitance between the two drums, is τ,
the relationship represented by L1/Vp < τ is satisfied. By
defining the time constant of the transfer drum as described
above, it becomes possible to stabilize an electric field
made by the transfer drum, and consequently to carry out a
desired transferring operation.

Abstract: A lightweight warp knitted textile fabric suitable for use as the loop component of a hook-and-loop fastener is formed of a set of ground yarns knitted in a relatively stretchable construction with a set of loop-forming yarns formed in a stitch pattern producing elongated underlap loops extending outwardly from the technical back of the fabric which can be readily interengaged with the hook elements of a mating hook component without any necessity for brushing, napping or mechanically raising the loops. In one embodiment, a second set of loop-forming yarns is formed in a stitch pattern producing elongated loops extending outwardly from the technical face of the fabric which can be adhered to a backing material such as a carpet backing. In another embodiment, filling yarn is inserted weftwise in every fabric course. The fabric is preferably finished with a starch application to improve handleability during subsequent processing and, in the case of the second embodiment, a fluorocarbon composition is applied when the fabric will be adhered to a foam carpet backing to restrict foam penetration into the fabric interstices.

Abstract: A method for inspecting without contact of the ends of
the cigarettes, or similar,in where the conformation of
at least one side of the ends of the cigarettes (S),
that is the side of the end of the filter and/or the
degree of filling with tobacco in correspondence to the
end on the opposite side are detected by illuminating
with a light source of preset intensity (306, 104) at
least one zone (I) of the end of each cigarette and
measuring the intensity of the light reflected (R1, R2,
204, 304, 406) by said illuminated zone (I). According
to the invention, the intensity (I1, I2) reflected (R1,
R2, 204, 304) by at least part of the illuminated zone
of the cigarette end is surveyed seperately by at least
two different angle shots. The measured value relative
to the conformation of the end side of the cigarette or
of the filter, that is at a distance of the zone (I) of
the end or filter illuminated by the incident ray of
the emitting source (104, 306) and/or by the surveying
sensors or by a preset plane is obtained thanks to the
elimination of the dependency on the colour of the tobacco
through combination of the two measurement signals
(I1, I2) proportional to the intensity.

Abstract: A method for spraying starting material particles
in a continuous hydrothermal reaction, comprising
spraying an aqueous fluid pressurized and heated in excess
of the saturated vapor temperature and a starting material
slurry pressurized at ordinary temperature. A starting
material slurry feed orifice is provided in a central
portion of an aqueous fluid spray orifice to spray and mix
the aqueous fluid and the starting material slurry. In
order to avoid entry of heat into the starting material
fluid from the aqueous fluid, a heat-insulating layer is
provided between feed paths for the respective two fluids.
According to the above method, the starting material slurry
is sprayed particularly under subcritical to
supercritical conditions beyond the saturated vapor
temperature to form fine particles without agglomeration
thereof, whereby a hydrothermal reaction can be
continuously and efficiently effected.

IPC: G06F13/42

Abstract: A prefetch operation greatly reduces the amount of delay between the transmission of a peripheral device request and the receipt of an I/O card acknowledge for peripheral read data, for example in a network printer environment where the amount of time required to transfer print data from an I/O card to a printer is reduced which, in turn, reduces the amount of time required for the printer to process a print job. The communication protocol between a peripheral device and an I/O card is typically based on a packet data structure, which consists of a header that contains the starting address of the buffer, the data length, and maximum data length of the packet buffer fields which are used for the information transfer between the I/O card and peripheral device; and a buffer for transferring data or messages between the peripheral device and the I/O card. The prefetch operation reduces the possibility of shared memory contention by prefetching the next requested data. The next data request is predictable because the packet resides sequentially in the shared memory. The prefetch operation also reduces memory access time for a peripheral device read request when the data are available from a prefetch buffer, such that the access time for a peripheral device read request from the prefetch buffer is relatively short compared to a read request from the shared memory.
