Patent JP-3913435-B2 (JP)
IPC: B23K26/21
Filed: 2000-02-29
Granted: 2007-05-09
Abstract: A vehicular lamp in which bonding failure between a front lens and a lamp body is prevented while enhancing the bonding strength and improving the quality of the outer appearance around the bonded surface therebetween. An edge surface of a seal leg of the front lens and a receiving surface of a lamp body are bonded together by laser beam welding so as to improve the quality of the outer appearance of the portion around the bonded surfaces. The bonded surface is inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to a plane perpendicular to the bonding direction. Even if the edge surface of the seal leg or the receiving surface has a wave-like irregularity such that gaps are created in areas therebetween, the pressure in the bonding direction acting on the members to be bonded causes slippage between them, resulting in sealing the gaps. The beam spot diameter of a laser beam irradiated onto the receiving surface is increased in an amount corresponding to the angle of inclination of the bonded surface, thus increasing the bonding width and enhancing the bonding strength.

Abstract: Application method for a rotating continuous transmitter for digital pulses in a device of entertainment electronics. As a rule, such pulse transmitters (encoders) are utilised several times, that is to say functions are preselected for which the pulse sequences emitted by the transmitter have an adjusting function. These functions have hitherto been called up and selected by means of keys. It was the object of the invention to simplify the operation by rendering such keys unnecessary. The application method according to the invention provides a rotating transmitter which is coupled mechanically with a switch which is operated at the rotating transmitter operating button. Furthermore, the switching signals generated in accordance with the switch function are used, in accordance with the method, for calling up the rotating transmitter and in agreed sequence after completed rotation, for selecting functions for the subsequent inputting of the function by rotation. The pulse sequence emitted during this process is used as adjusting command for a function, for example volume, balance, tone or others. Via a microcomputer, which exists in any case, for example in devices of entertainment electronics, the switching signals and adjusting commands of the functions are processed and the selection, acknowledgment and leaving of the selection function and, if necessary the storage are effected.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a refrigerator having high cooling efficiency, internal volume efficiency and lighting efficiency and being excellent in storage qualities and usability, in regard to the refrigerator provided with a refrigerating chamber in the upper part and a freezing chamber in the lower. SOLUTION: The refrigerating chamber 37 is cooled down by providing a first evaporator 45 and a first blower 46 in a first cooling chamber 74 provided in the shape of a letter L practically in the ceiling part and the upper rear part inside the chamber. The freezing chamber 38 is cooled down by a second evaporator 61 and a second blower 62 and thereby cooling efficiency is enhanced, while internal volume efficiency is enhanced by a simple air passage. Besides, it is possible to miniaturize the second evaporator 61 and to lower the position of a heat insulating section wall 36, and thereby the usability of a storing sphere having high frequency of use is improved.  In the refrigerating chamber 37, drying of food is suppressed by the cooling by the first evaporator 45 of high evaporation temperature, while the nonuniformity of temperature in the front and the rear inside the chamber is eliminated by discharge of cooled air from the front of the first cooling chamber 74, thereby enhancing storage qualities. Besides, the inside of the refrigerating chamber 37 is lighted with easiness to see three-dimensionally by a pair of lighting units 75 provided in a bent part of a substantially L-shaped lighting chamber 50 provided in the first cooling chamber 74.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a mobile communication terminal that can obtain its own position with high accuracy without much increasing the power consumption and to provide its position detection method. SOLUTION: A base station signal processing section 14 detects its own position based on position information of base stations B1-B3 sent from the base stations B1-B3 and the arrival time of signals sent from the base stations B1-B3. Furthermore, a GPS signal processing section 22 detects its own position with high accuracy although the GPS signal processing section 22 requires higher power than that of the base station signal processing section 14 to find out its position. A control section 24 operates the GPS signal processing section 22 when detecting the movement of its own terminal (communication terminal 10) to obtain its own position with high accuracy.

Abstract: An aqueous solution of free hydroxylamine is prepared by treating a hydroxylammonium salt with ammonia by the countercurrent method in a stripping column by a process in which hydroxylamine is liberated and at the same time the solution obtained is separated by distillation into an aqueous hydroxylamine solution and a salt fraction. The novel process can be carried out in a simple and gentle manner and on a large scale. The danger of decomposition is minimized owing to the low thermal load, the low concentration of hydroxylamine and the short residence time in the process.

Abstract: A method of and an apparatus for encoding and decoding using transformation bases of a yet higher efficiency. In a method for encoding an object signal in compliance with a transformation rule, a signal correlating to the object signal is obtained, and a transformation base that forms the transformation rule is derived based on a characteristic of the obtained reference signal. The object signal is transformed and encoded in compliance with the transformation rule based on the derived transformation base. Accordingly, the object signal is transformed in compliance with the transformation rule based on the transformation base derived from the characteristic of the reference signal. Since the reference signal is correlated to the object signal, the transformation base derived from the characteristic matches the feature of the object signal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A capacitive-based apparatus for measuring the volume of a fluid drop passing through an intravenous drip chamber. The apparatus includes a capacitor comprising two parallel plates that are a fixed distance apart and are positioned such that the fluid flow path in the drip chamber is between them. The fluid drop moving through the drip chamber between the plates causes the capacitance of the plates to change. This change in capacitance is measured and from it, the volume of the drop is calculated. The volumes of a series of drops are integrated to provide a measured rate of flow through the drip chamber. This measured rate of flow is compared to the programmed rate of flow and the difference is used to adjust a flow control device to obtain the desired rate of flow. The measured flow rate is also displayed.
