Patent EP-0945779-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BIGI MICHAEL J
IPC: G06F3/12
Filed: 1998-07-29
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for selecting staple positions for printed documents are
disclosed. A system and method for printing documents is disclosed which provide a user
with extended staple position options. A user of a printer may specify where he wishes
staples to be put into his document. The user is provided with a view of a sheet of paper on
his computer screen, and can select with his mouse where he wants the staples to be put. By
knowing the paper size, feed orientation and image orientation, the printer driver can then
map the user's selected staple positions to the physical capabilities of the printer. The printer
driver instructs the printer controller of the stapling position for the job, and how much
rotation (if any) the controller should apply to the image before printing.

Abstract: The present invention provides a magnets containing-type motor
that minimizes a cogging torque without lowering its output. In a magnets
containing-type motor where permanent magnets are set in magnetic pole
elements of a rotor, the dimensions of each magnetic pole element are
determined to satisfy predetermined relations according to a variety of
numerical elements of the motor. In accordance with a concrete
arrangement, the dimensions of each magnetic pole element are determined,
so as to enable either one of a magnetic pole element opening angle L2 and
an equivalent magnetic pole element opening angle L3 to be expressed as
 (n+z)·Pp + x·(g/R) + y·(gp/R) , based on a predetermined relation between a
parameter (t2-t1)/g and a predetermined threshold value. In this equation,
gp denotes a length of a space between adjoining teeth; Pp denotes a central
angular pitch of teeth; R denotes a radius of an inner face of a stator; g
denotes an interval between the stator and the rotor; t2 denotes a thickness
of a magnetic pole circumferential portion; t1 denotes a thickness of a
magnetic pole element side portion; n denotes an arbitrary natural number;
and x, y, and z are real numbers that satisfy -0.6 ≤ x ≤ 0.6, 0.3 ≤ y ≤ 0.5, and
-0.06 ≤ z ≤ -0.04.

Abstract: Lower resolution source data (122) is synthesized (126) to a higher
resolution format for subsequent rendering (134) on a lower resolution output
device (10). Synthesis occurs by selecting or generating and using a synthesis
template (126) that represents a configuration of a plurality of pixel data in the
higher resolution format into which the lower resolution source data is to be
synthesized. A working or active pixel (130) is identified from the lower
resolution source data, a synthesis template (126) is selected, and then the
synthesis template pixel data is substituted for the working pixel for rendering
on the output device. The synthesized higher resolution data is rendered in a
manner such that dots represented by the synthesized data are formed
interstitially (160) relative to scan lines (142, 144) of the given lower
raster/resolution capability of the output device (10). The working pixel is
identified in the lower resolution data by recognizing a configuration of a
plurality of pixel data (124) adjacent the working pixel. The synthesis template
(126) comprises at least a two by two cell matrix for pixel placement in the
higher resolution format. The synthesis template pixel placement is formed to
provide an apparent merge of the pixel data in the higher resolution format with
the adjacent pixel data of the lower resolution format data.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to draw contour lines
according to specified display coordinates and display the
lines immediately. In order to achieve this object, a display
rectangular coordinate system and an input rectangular
coordinate system that correspond to each other are set up for
a display face of a liquid crystal display unit (2) and for an
input face of a tablet (6). If an input coordinate is specified
on the input face using a predetermined directing device,
therefore, a tablet control unit (7) outputs hand-written input
coordinate data (step a2) and corresponding display coordinates
are specified. Then, a central control unit (15) creates
contour data representing contour lines which enclose the
figure composed of the specified coordinate data, on the basis
of the data according to control of programs (9 to 13) read from
a floppy disk (23) and stored in a ROM (8). In other words,
the central control unit (15) generates first figure data
composed of specified coordinate data (steps a3, a4), then
generates second figure data including the first figure data
and representing contour lines which enclose the figure
composed of the data (steps a5, a6) thereby to create contour
data obtained by removing the first figure data from the second
figure data (steps b1 to b4). The created contour data is then
displayed on the liquid crystal display unit (2) (step b5).

L'invention concerne également, d'une part un système d'extincteur mettant en oeuvre ce procédé, et d'autre part un extincteur convenant notamment dans un tel système. Le procédé consiste à introduire au coeur du feu un aérosol anti-flamme, ou à appliquer sur l'élément au coeur du feu un agent refroidissant présentant des propriétés endothermiques, puis à maintenir la température au coeur de la combustion à un niveau inférieur à la température de reprise des réactions en chaîne de la flamme au coeur de la combustion. Le procédé consiste ensuite à introduire au coeur de la combustion un complément d'agent de refroidissement, et ce jusqu'à ce que la température intrinsèque du coeur de la combustion descende en dessous de la température de reprise des réactions en chaîne de la flamme au coeur de la combustion. Cela permet d'anéantir le feu couvant dans les produits combustibles et d'éteindre le feu dans sa totalité.

Abstract: The system has a hand transmitter (11) for transmitting encoded signals and a receiver (12) for the transmitted signals in the vehicle. A signal, preferably an electromagnetic signal, is transmitted by manually operating the hand transmitter. The receiver decodes the signal to drive the control unit. The hand transmitter has at least two different operating modes, i.e. a standard mode for standard signals and at least one special mode for special signals. In the special mode the transmitter increases the transmission power and/or changes the transmission frequency and/or modulation type. The transmitter only changes to special mode if the same operation is repeated within a time window.

Abstract: A network adapter includes a bypass buffer with sufficient capacity to store a
packet from an upstream neighboring adapter and to store at least one additional
incoming packet as a local packet is sent. The adapter also includes control logic which
monitors the bypass buffer to determine whether the adapter may send local data
packets. A network may be formed of such network adapters linked through counter-rotating
rings. If the control logic determines that the bypass buffer has sufficient
storage available to avoid overflow while the adapter sends the local packet, the
adapter sends the local packet. The control logic may choose to send a local packet
only if there is sufficient room available within the bypass buffer to store a packet the
same size as the local packet which is to be sent, thereby insuring that the bypass
buffer does not overflow before the adapter can resume transmitting data from the
bypass buffer. If there is not sufficient room within the adapter's bypass buffer, the
adapter requests a pause in transmissions from its upstream neighbor which pause will
permit the adapter to empty its bypass buffer and to then send a local packet. If the
upstream neighbor cannot accommodate the pause request, it, in turn, requests a
pause from its own upstream neighboring adapter, and so on, until a pause is effected
and the original pause-requesting adapter can empty its bypass buffer and transmit its
local packet.
