Inventor: WATANABE KATSUYA
IPC: G11B7/004
Filed: 2006-06-16
Abstract: An optical disk drive according to the present invention has the ability to read data from multiple types of optical disks, each of which includes at least one information storage layer. The drive includes: a driving mechanism 120, which is loaded with a selected one of the optical disks of the multiple types and which rotates the optical disk 102; an optical pickup 30 for irradiating the optical disk 102, which has been loaded into the driving mechanism 120, with a converged light beam, thereby generating an electrical signal based on light that has been reflected from the optical disk 102; and a control section (ODC 50) for controlling operations of the driving mechanism 120 and the optical pickup 30. The control section 50 includes a right/wrong side determining section for determining, by reference to the electrical signal generated by the optical pickup 30, whether or not the optical disk 102 has been loaded into the driving mechanism 120 with the other surface opposed to the optical pickup 30.

Title: Techniques d'envoi d'impulsions sur une tete d'impression pour imprimantes couleur a impression directe, thermique, polychrome
Inventor: LIU CHIEN
IPC: B41J2/36
Filed: 2006-06-22
Abstract: Dans un aspect, l'invention concerne un système d'imagerie thermique polychrome dans lequel différents éléments chauffants sur une tête d'impression thermique peuvent imprimer sur différentes couches de formation de couleurs d'un élément d'imagerie thermique polychrome en un seul passage. Le temps d'impression par lignes (304a-b) est divisé en parties (308a, 308b, 308c, 308d), chacune étant divisée en une pluralité de sous-intervalles (a-z). L'ensemble des impulsions (306) dans les parties présentent la même énergie. Dans un mode de réalisation, chaque impulsion présente la même amplitude et durée. Différentes couleurs sont sélectionnées pour l'impression au cours des différentes parties (308a, 308b) par variation de la fraction de sous-intervalles (a-z) qui contiennent des impulsions. Ladite technique permet d'imprimer de multiples couleurs à l'aide d'une tête d'impression thermique à ligne de signal stroboscopique unique. Des motifs d'impulsion peuvent être choisis afin de réduire la coïncidence d'impulsions fournies à de multiples éléments de tête d'impression, réduisant ainsi les besoins en puissance de crête de la tête d'impression.

Abstract: In a semiconductor memory device 10, the maximum counter value in a carry-up unit 111 of an address counter 110 is set to 128 bits when an access request is for writing data to a memory array 100. On the other hand, in the semiconductor memory device 10, if the access request is for reading data from the memory array 100, the maximum counter value in the carry-up unit 111 of the address counter 110 is set to 256 bits. The result is that it is possible to reduce the circuit structure required for specifying the desired address in an EEPROM array 101 and a masked ROM array 102.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé pour recycler un plastique thermodurcissable durci. Le procédé implique l’utilisation d’une petite quantité de thermoplastique et son mélange avec un plastique thermodurcissable durci (environ 70 % (minimum) en poids de tous les ingrédients utilisés) en chauffant et sous pression. Un produit chimique, à savoir un polymère thermoplastique greffé avec un groupe fonctionnel, est ajouté pour créer la liaison entre le thermoplastique et le plastique thermodurcissable durci utilisé ; et des lubrifiants sont également ajoutés pour améliorer le procédé et pour augmenter la qualité du produit final. Bien que le produit final contienne du plastique thermodurcissable durci comme constituant principal, il se comporte comme un thermoplastique. Il peut subir une transformation physique réversible : à savoir, il peut modifier son état physique en passant de solide à fondu sous l’action de la chaleur ; et subir ensuite une réversion en solide lorsque l’on retire la source de chaleur. La transformation physique peut être répétée sans modification ou détérioration remarquable du produit final.

Abstract: Le procédé et le système évolués d'observance thérapeutique de l'invention préviennent des complications indésirables associées aux médicaments, grâce à des protocoles qui identifient uniquement le patient, le fournisseur de soins de santé, la médication et/ou le dispositif médical devant être utilisés avec une identification par radiofréquence (RFID). Les dispositifs RFID incorporent des verrous ou indicateurs à sécurité intégrée qui empêchent l'utilisation accidentelle ou non autorisée de la médication du dispositif médical ou des fournitures médicales. Le système corrèle le patient, le fournisseur de soins de santé, le dispositif médical et la manière dont il doit être utilisé, et autorise l'action à entreprendre, par le biais d'une interface d'assistant numérique PDA, par une voie de communication sans fil. Le système utilise un horodateur pour enregistrer également les complications dans un dispositif de type boîte noire médicale qui permet de tenir un registre de façon à améliorer davantage les soins prodigués au patient et permettre une analyse des actes médicaux. Le système comprend en outre des interfaces servant à la préparation et à l'élimination sûre des médicaments. On décrit également plusieurs dispositifs intelligents interagissant avec le système. Ces dispositifs intelligents comprennent des récipients médicaux, des pinces, des clapets, des seringues, des accouplements, des pipettes et un système hôte accueillant d'autres dispositifs de prestation de soins de santé.

Abstract: A frequency resolution for measuring transmission characteristics of a device under test is increased. With a measuring device 1 including a first terahertz light generator 18 that generates incident light, a second terahertz light generator 28 that generates reference light having an optical frequency f 1 - f 2 - f IF  different from an optical frequency f 1 -f 2  of the incident light by a constant difference frequency f IF , a terahertz light detector 44 which outputs an light detection signal having the difference frequency f IF  based on response light obtained by making the incident light incident to an optical fiber 2 and the reference light, and a network analyzer 50 that receives the light detection signal, thereby measuring characteristics of the optical fiber 2, a spectrum of the incident light (terahertz light) incident to the optical fiber 2 includes the carrier frequency (f 1 -f 2 ), but does not include sideband frequencies (f 1 -f 2 ±f IF ). It is thus possible to reduce the effective spectrum width of the incident light. As a result, the frequency resolution increases in the measurement of the transmission characteristics of the optical fiber 2.

Abstract: A sliding panel includes multiple connecting/adjacent carrier tracks such as two/three/four carrier tracks while connectors of each carrier track are disposed in opposite directions or at intervals. Thus the multiple connecting/adjacent carrier tracks slide in parallel under the same channel. Moreover, the positions of each connector on top surface of respective carrier track are in alternating arrangement so as to allow runners of multiple connecting/adjacent carrier tracks being mounted inside the same channel simultaneously. The runners of the connecting/adjacent carrier tracks move inside the channel of a rail at the same time and the connecting/adjacent carrier tracks slide in parallel under the same channel. Therefore, the number of channels of the rail is decreased and the amount of material used for producing the rail is reduced. Furthermore, the rail can be designed to have two-step inner and outer rails for adjusting length of the rail. Moreover, each rail is disposed only with one channel and then a plurality of rails such as one/two/three rails are arranged in parallel to form a rail set for easy assembling.
