Abstract: A molded wood composite article man-made from wood fibers or wood particles on at least an upper, molded surface of the article, and a method of manufacturing the article to include a relatively uniform density, detailed design contours and textured aesthetics on one or more molded depression-interior inclined surfaces, while preventing embrittlement, softness and blistering of the article along the depression-interior inclined surfaces. These attributes are achieved by molding one or more depressions (20) into an initially planar layer of cellulosic material, wherein the molded depressions have one or more inclined walls (60) that have upper surfaces (62), along essentially an entire inclined span, that include detailed design contours, including adjacent curved and planar portions (64,66,) e.g. bead and cove. In one embodiment the angle of inclination of inclined upper wall surface (62) is 38° or less, e.g. about 25° to 38°. In another, the thickness of the inclined wall varies 20% or less in relation to the mean thickness which in turn is preferably about 2 to 15% thinner than the adjacent planar walls (46,72). The ends (68,70) of the inclined wall are preferably e.g. 1 to 12% less thick than the mean thickness of the wall between the ends.

Abstract: In the light emitting element comprising an n-type semiconductor substrate, a lower electrode formed on the lower surface of the substrate, and a light emitting part having a pn junction, which is composed of an InGaAlP compound semiconductor material, a p-type current diffusing layer and an upper electrode which are laminated on the upper surface of the substrate in that order from the substrate side, the improvement wherein a carrier concentration of the current diffusing layer is lower on a light emitting part side thereof than that on an upper electrode side thereof, and at least the upper electrode side of the current diffusing layer is composed of GaP. By employing such structure, diffusion of the dopant to a light emitting part can be suppressed even when the carrier concentration of the upper part of the current diffusing layer is set to be higher, thereby affording a lower resistance of the current diffusing layer as a whole. The GaP being a compound semiconductor without Al, the amount of the dopant necesssary for affording the superior effects of suppressing the diffusion of the dopant to the light emitting part can be less. Consequently, the luminous efficiency can be improved as compared with conventional ones, and a light emitting element having a long service life and superior reliability can be obtained.

Abstract: A valve (10) for controlling flow of hydraulic fluid. The valve (10) includes first and second valve members (80, 82), each having a plurality of lands and grooves. The valve members (80, 82) are relatively movable from a neutral position to a displaced position in which surface segments (202, 226, 208, 218) of respective pairs of lands overlap to form flow gaps (232, 234) for restricting flow of fluid between respective pairs of grooves. At least one (234) of the flow gaps is divergent by having a cross-sectional flow area which increases along a direction of fluid flow therethrough and at least one (232) of the flow gaps is convergent by having a cross-sectional flow area which decreases along a direction of fluid flow therethrough. The flow gaps (232, 234) have minimum cross-sectional flow areas (A, B) defined by the surface segments. The flow gaps (232, 234) are sized such that the minimum cross-sectional area (A) of the convergent flow gap (232) is larger than the minimum cross-sectional area (B) of the divergent flow gap (234) at a first rotational position, and are sized such that the minimum cross-sectional area (A) of the convergent flow gap (232) is smaller than the minimum cross-sectional area (B) of the divergent flow gap (234) at a second rotational position for suppressing valve noise.

Abstract: An improved ceramic feedthrough capacitor design which results in distinct advantages in EMI (electromagnetic interference) filtering and therapeutic waveform management for implantable defibrillators and pacemakers and the like. The invention provides ceramic capacitor electrode plate designs which provide both low impedance decoupling for EMI suppression, and, at the same time provide an isolated common ground point through a separate coupling capacitor for electrical isolation of the filtered circuit from the metal case (usually titanium) of the defibrillator or the like. Such an arrangement allows the defibrillator HV (high voltage) output pulse to the heart to be referenced lead to lead (including reverse polarity), or from either lead to a common floating ground point or to the titanium case. The primary application of the invention is directed to implantable defibrillators where the output pulse to the heart is typically high voltage (up to 750 volts) and of short duration (typically in the 10 X 10 -3  seconds or 10 millisecond range). The invention is equally applicable to implantable pacemakers. The invention is particularly suited for a combination defibrillator (tachycardia) and pacemaker (bradycardia) unit where there are sense (heart monitoring), low voltage (pacing) and high voltage (defibrillator) output leads.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for correcting printing characteristics of a full-line printhead, and producing a high-printing quality printhead at high manufacturing yield, a corrected printhead by this apparatus, and a printer employing this printhead. According to this method, an image is printed on a printing medium by using double pulses obtained based on fluctuation of resistance of each printing unit of a printhead, and a reference OD value is determined from an OD value histogram of the printed image. A preheating pulse width is selected, based on OD values of n printed images obtained by changing the preheating pulse width n times and the reference OD value, such that an OD value on each printing element is equal or close to the reference OD value. For example, assuming that the reference value is 0.43, a preheating pulse width on printing element No. 3 is 0.875 µ sec.

Title: An electronic price label (EPL) system

Filed: 1996-05-24
Abstract: The invention relates to an electronic price label system and in particular to a system and method which determines a number of electronic price label (EPL) data message transmission attempts to an EPL (18). A transmitter (12,10) transmits a data message to the EPL (18). A receiver (12,16) receives a return signal from the EPL (18). A storage system (28) stores a status flag representing a first number of times the data message is transmitted by the transmitter to the EPL (18), the status flag being based upon an established signal to noise (S/N) ratio. A communication base station (CBS) (10) determines a new S/N ratio from the return signal. A runtime analyzer program (26) determines whether the new S/N ratio is below a range of S/N ratios that includes the established S/N ratio, and if it is, provides a new status flag representing a second number of transmission times greater than the first number of transmission times. The transmitter (12,16) transmits a subsequent data message the second number of times.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device and method at speech synthesis. A speech is registered and polyphones are stored. In connection with registration of the polyphones also the movement pattern in a face is registered. The registration of the movement pattern in the face is made by that a number of measuring points in the face are registered at the same time as the polyphones are registered. In connection with translation of a person's speech from one language into another, the polyphones and corresponding movement patterns in the face are linked up to a movement model in the face. The face of the real person is after that pasted over the model, at which one to the language corresponding movement pattern is obtained. The invention consequently gives the impression that the person really speaks the language in question.
