Abstract: An access control device inhibits data transfers on a bus between unauthorized initiator-target pairs. A permission-matrix is maintained that identifies the access permission of each initiator relative to each target. The access device monitors the bus and determines the identification of the initiator and the intended target. If the initiator has the appropriate access rights to the target, the bus communication is permitted to occur, otherwise the communication is blocked, and an error signal is asserted. To provide further security, the identifier of initiators thatare local to the access control device are communicated to the access control device via a direct wired connection to each initiator.

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To inspect not only existence of a lubricant but also an application position of the lubricant on a rolling bearing.  <P>SOLUTION: Inspection processing of the application state of the lubricant on a retainer of the rolling bearing (bearing) is performed by using an inspection device. The bearing is irradiated with visible light, and a transmission image is imaged by a camera, and the imaged image is transferred to an image processing device. Since the retainer is projected as a transmission domain in the imaged image, and the lubricant is projected as a non-transmission domain, the retainer is distinguished easily from the lubricant by a color difference in the imaged image. In the image processing device, binarization processing is applied to the imaged image, and the non-transmission domain (black domain) in a specific domain on the retainer, namely, a domain of the lubricant, is detected. The application state of the lubricant (for example, a large, small, or proper amount of lubricant, or no lubricant) on the retainer is determined based on the detected area of the black domain (domain of the lubricant).  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT

Abstract: A liquid ejection apparatus includes: a liquid ejection head which includes a nozzle ejecting liquid, a pressure chamber connected to the nozzle and arranged in a liquid ejection surface of the liquid ejection head, and a pressure application device applying pressure to the liquid inside the pressure chamber; an internal pressure adjustment device which adjusts an internal pressure of the liquid ejection head; and a pressure control device which controls the internal pressure adjustment device and the pressure application device so as to spread the liquid over the liquid ejection surface of the liquid ejection head. The internal pressure adjustment device adjusts the internal pressure of the liquid ejection head to a positive pressure so as to still hold the liquid on the nozzle while protruding the liquid from the liquid ejection surface. The pressure application device then applies the pressure to the liquid inside the pressure chamber for a pressure application duration so as not to cause the liquid to be ejected from the nozzle but to flow out the liquid from the nozzle onto the liquid ejection surface, while the internal pressure adjustment device is adjusting the internal pressure to the positive pressure. The pressure application device then stops applying the pressure to the liquid inside the pressure chamber after the pressure application duration, while the internal pressure adjustment device is adjusting the internal pressure to the positive pressure.
