Patent EP-0989561-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HUNTER CHARLES L
IPC: G11B23/28
Filed: 1999-05-20
Abstract: The present invention is a device and method to install a
compact disk media write-protect ring (104). The device
(200) positions the write-protect ring (104) so that it is
aligned with the center hole of the disk (100). Aligning the
write-protect ring (104) with the center of the disk (100)
ensures that the ring is in the correct location, thereby
enabling the write protect function. The device (200)
includes a hub (202) upon which the center hole of the disk
(100) is pressed, thereby securing the disk to the device.
The device (200) also includes a support (206) that
surrounds the hub (202) and is connected to the hub so that
it may move axially along the hub. This support (206) serves
as a shelf for the write-protect ring (104) and a press to
assure good contact between the disk and the adhesive of the
write-protect ring. In operation the write-protect ring
(104) is positioned on the support (206) with the adhesive
exposed and facing upwards away from the support. The disk
(100) is then placed on the hub (202) with its data side
down. As the hole of the disk (100) is pressed down upon the
hub (202), the support (206) of the device (200) presses the
write-protect ring (104) against the disk, causing the
write-protect ring to adhere to the disk.

IPC: H04N3/15

Abstract: Outputs from an array of input signals are amplified by an amplification section, sampled and multiplexed onto an analog bus. Amplifiers in the amplification section are segregated into groups. When the amplifiers are in a first mode, as indicated by a binning signal, the amplifiers within each group are electrically isolated from another and function independently from one another to provide a high resolution output signal. When in a second mode, amplifiers within a group operate as a single unified amplifier that averages the inputs for that group to provide a single output. Thus, in this second mode of operation, readout speed may be improved while increasing the signal-to-noise ratio of each input signal relative to the first mode of operation.

Abstract: Four channel signals 3a to 3d are input into a transmitter unit 1. The
channel signal 3a includes ATM cell-base flow, and is input into a channel
identifier adding circuit 4, in which a HEC byte in PLOAM cell is inverted. As a
result, the channel signal 3a is turned into a reference channel signal 3x. The
reference channel signal 3x as well as the channel signals 3b to 3d is input into a
multiplexing circuit 5, in which the reference channel signal 3x is time-division
multiplexed in every bit. The thus multiplexed reference channel signal is
transmitted as a time-division multiplexed transmission signal 6 to a channel
identifying circuit 8 in a receiver unit 7, and then, is separated into channels.
The channel identifying circuit 8 detects the reference channel signal among the
four channel signals, based on the fact that HEC byte in PLOAM cell is inverted,
and identifies other channel signals, based on a difference in a phase between the
reference channel signal 3x and other channel signals. The thus identified
channel signals are transmitted from the channel identifying circuit 8.

Abstract: The bicycle saddle of the present invention is divided into at least two parts. A central part of the saddle contacted with sensitive parts of a human body is made of an elastic substance to be compressed more than the peripheral part or is adjusted to be lower than the peripheral part by adjusting the height proper to the body shape of a rider. Therefore, most of the weight of the rider is supported by the peripheral part of the saddle while the weight and oppression concentrated on the central part is released. Besides, an airway is formed in the middle of the upper and lower parts of the saddle. The present invention includes at least one variable saddle part, a peripheral saddle part which is installed at a saddle support attached to a bicycle frame for supporting the weight of a bicycle rider, a level adjuster which adjusts the height of the variable saddle part from the peripheral saddle part, and an airway in the space between the bottom of the central groove and the variable saddle part.
