Patent EP-1074236-A3 (EP)
Inventor: LEIGHT HOWARD S
IPC: G07F11/44
Filed: 2000-05-26
Abstract: An earplug dispenser is provided, which is of simple construction and which
is easily operated by a person to dispense one or two earplugs with minimal
possibility of the earplug bouncing off the person's hand and onto a dirty floor. The
earplug dispenser includes a barrier (26) lying on a stand, a wheel (20) with
earplug-receiving holes (22) rotatably mounted above the barrier, and a handle
device (28) fixed to the wheel and lying below the barrier. As the handle device is
turned about a vertical axis (60), earplugs in the wheel holes move over a dispense
aperture (42) in the barrier and fall through it and through the handle device onto
the palm of a person who is turning the handle device. The handle device includes
a largely cylindrical handle (72) that encourages the handle to be held with the
palm (P) closely under the open lower end (44) of the handle and with the fingers
of the person extending up along vertical grooves (82) in the handle, so earplugs
fall into the person's palm. The stand (16) has a catch pad (75) at the bottom and
has an access opening (76) of less than 180° to further reduce the possibility of
loss of the earplug. The barrier is in the form of an upside-down cap with an
internal thread (106). A container (12) that holds numerous earplugs, has a lower
end with threads (102) that screw into the cap.

Abstract: An electronic camera comprising a frame memory (6), which
stores a digital picture data corresponding to a picture of one
frame, and a multiple exposure control circuit (5), which controls
multiple exposures. In response to a number of multiple exposures
"m", wherein "m" is an integer of being greater than or equal to (2),
the frame memory (6) has a memory capacity of "M" bits defined by
an equation:  M = (N + k × nPXL) , wherein "N" is a necessary
capacity in bit for a single exposure, "k" is an integer of satisfying
an inequality 2 k-1 <m≦2 k  and nPXL is a number of pixels in one
picture frame. The digital picture data is integrated by the
number of multiple exposures "m" with the multiple exposure
control circuit (5) and stored in the frame memory (6), and then a
value corresponding to each pixel of the picture data obtained by
the integration is decreased by a factor of 1/m and outputted.

Abstract: A method for generating a wrapper grammar for a file
having a structure of a particular format includes
providing (50) at least one sample file of the particular
format, where the particular format comprises a plurality
of string tokens. Each sample file includes a plurality of
tokens (data strings) which may be actual data from the
document, an HTML tag or some other grammatical separator.
The sample file of the particular format is then processed
by annotating attributable tokens (52) with a user-defined
attribute, such as Author, Title, etc. from a set of
attributes to form an annotated sample set. The annotated
sample set is then evaluated (54) to determine if wrapper
grammar generation is possible, and if it is possible, a
wrapper grammar for the files having a structure of the
particular format is generated (70). Preferably, the
annotated sample set is evaluated by determining if all
attributes in the annotated sample set are distinguishable
from one another.

IPC: G06F9/42
Filed: 2000-08-09
Abstract: A method lookup mechanism is disclosed which not only enforces accessibility
constraints imposed by modularity constructs but also enables transitive method
override. According to one embodiment, when a method m is invoked on a target
object, the method m in a resolved class is checked to determine whether it has been
declared as public/protected. If so, then standard method lookup may be used to
determine the proper implementation of method m to invoke. However, if the
resolved method is not declared as public/protected, then the class of the target object
is searched for an implementation of the method m. If no implementation is found,
then a superclass of the target object class is searched for an implementation. This
process repeats until an implementation is found or until the resolved class is reached.
If an implementation for method m is found in a class (referred to as the current class)
other than the resolved class, then a determination is made as to whether the current
class can access the method m in the resolved class. The current class can access
method m of the resolved class if the current class is in the same package P as the
resolved class, or if an intervening class has "publicized" the method m of the
resolved class. If either one of these conditions is met, then the implementation for
method m in the current class is invoked. In effect, the method m of the current class
is allowed to override the method m of the resolved class. Performing method lookup
in this manner makes it possible to both enforce accessibility constraints imposed by
modularity constructs and enable transitive method override.

Abstract: A seat member 10 of the present invention is provided with a belt
member 200 in the back side of each cushioning member, in which the belt
member is held by engaging with an appropriate portion of a back frame 30
at its one end and with an appropriate portion of a seat frame 40 at the other
end, is disposed in the vicinity of, at least, either right or left side of a sitting
person in a direction along the longitudinal cross-section, and is designed to
have the length in the overlapping area with the above-described cushioning
members shorter than the length along an expanded state of the cushioning
members in the same area and is designed to be made of a material having a
higher stiffness than those of respective cushioning members. By disposing
the belt member 200, when a person takes a seat, it becomes possible to
support the waist of sitting person since a portion corresponding to the belt
member is relatively bulged out. In addition, since a relatively bulged
position of the place corresponding to the belt member differs in response to
the physique (weight, etc.) of the sitting person, the waist-supporting function
can be exhibited in response to difference in the physique so that the feeling
of seating can be improved.

Abstract: A scan speed procedure determines a minimum radiation exposure period on an object by object basis for a transmission study. A transmission prescan for a predetermined duration is followed by a second transmission scan phase. A resultant count density (Cm) for the object is then generated and examined. The portion having the smallest count density is determined, and a value representing the minimum required number of counts for transmission study is given. From the above, a transmission period is determined and the second transmission scan phase is performed using a multi-pass scan phase. The transmission period represents the minimum exposure duration to collect transmission data to ensure that the count density distribution for the object will contain at least Cm count density over each portion of the object.

Abstract: The present invention provides a tape printing device (1)
for printing a desirable series of characters on a tape (T) and
cutting the tape to a label of a desirable length, and also a
tape cartridge (10) used in the tape printing device (1). The tape
cartridge (10) has a characteristic element readably storing specific
information on the tape (T) such as a width of the tape. The
tape printing device (1) reads the characteristic element to
control printing conditions according to the type of the tape
cartridge (10). More specifically, the tape printing device (1)
determines a variety of parameters including a number of
lines and character sizes of the character series printed on
the tape (T) as well as lengths of left and right margins. When
a tape (T) of a relatively large width is set in the tape
cartridge (10), the device increases a rotation torque of a platen
for feeding the tape. When a tape of a relatively small
width is set in the tape cartridge, on the contrary, the
device drives only specific dot elements in a range of the
tape width out of all dot elements arranged on a printing
head. The characteristic element of the tape cartridge (10)
stores the specific information expressed as depths of a
plurality of holes or electric data. This specific information
may be updated to identify a user or detect a residual amount
of the tape (T).
