Inventor: KOMATSU TAKAKO
IPC: G09B29/10
Filed: 1995-09-20
Abstract: A moving object navigation apparatus includes an input section, a map information memory section, a database, a coordinate retrieval section, a route calculation section, and an output section. The input section inputs institution names indicating the present location of a moving object and a destination by using a natural language. The map information memory section stores a map including information of roads and institutions. The database stores the relationship between the institution names on the map stored in the memory and position indexes. The coordinate retrieval section retrieves the institution names indicating the present location and the destination, which are input by the input section, from the database, and outputs corresponding position indexes. The route calculation section obtains the shortest route between the position indexes of the present location and the destination, which are output from the coordinate retrieval section, by referring to the map stored in the memory. The output section outputs route information obtained by the calculation section to the user of the moving object.

Abstract: The brake nave (4) circulates with a drive shaft and supports a wheel and the nut (3) fixing to the drive shaft is secured on the threaded end. A protective cap (6) circulating with the brake nave and the drive shaft acts as a cover for the nut and the threaded end. The protective cap is fixed by a securing plate (9,10) which engages over the outer contour of the nut. The securing plate extends over the open end of the protective cap and the length of the plate extension is greater than the distance from the outer face surface (8) of the brake nave to the upper edge of the wheel nut. The securing plate is of spring steel and in the fitted state locates with tension against the nut.

Abstract: A printing apparatus for printing by use of a printing head on a printing medium conveyed by means of an endless conveying member comprises two roller members to support an endless conveying member tensioned around them, a first displacing unit to displace the endless conveying member in the direction different from the traveling direction of the endless conveying member, this first displacing unit being arranged to displace the portion of the endless conveying member, which faces the printing head, and a second displacing unit to displace the endless conveying member on the side opposite to the endless conveying member displaced by the first displacing unit in accordance with the displacement of the endless conveying member made by the first displacing unit. With the structure thus arranged, it is possible to make the tension exerted on the conveying belt extremely small as a whole. Hence there is no need for the provision of any particular elements to cope with comparatively large changes in the tension acting on the conveying belt, that may otherwise result in making the apparatus larger. Also, the gap between the printing head and the conveying surface of the conveying member is maintained relaibly for the execution of printing in good condition.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of using an implement for spreading a material under the control of a microprocessor (2). In the microprocessor (2), a desired amount of material to be spread per unit of time (7) is defined on the basis of values introduced into the microprocessor (2). Furthermore, before spreading the material, a pre-determined adjustment factor (9) attuned to the type of material to be spread is introduced into the microprocessor (2) and used to adapt the defined value of the desired amount of material per unit of time (7). The adapted value is used for the control of a metering device (1) through the intermediary of a standard characteristic attuned to the type of implement and/or algorithm, both stored in the microprocessor (2). During the spreading of material, on account of signals produced by a weight measuring unit (32) and which represent the decrease in weight of the material, the value related to, and adapted to the desired amount of material per unit of time (10) is corrected if it deviates from the measured amount of material spread per unit of time.

Abstract: feeds back voltage from current measurement impedance to switch controller, components selected for required time constants the device has a series circuit contg. an inductance (3), a clock controlled (12) switch (4) and a current measurement impedance (5) between two connections (1,2) which can be subjected to a supply voltage. An input resistance (17) feeds a voltage at the current measurement impedance to the controller (12) input (18) to control the switch. A capacitor (19) is connected in parallel with the controller input. A diode (20) is connected in parallel with the input resistance. The diode and input resistance are dimensioned wrt. each other so that the diode only conducts when voltage at the current measurement impedance exceeds a defined threshold value. The Ohmic impedance of the diode together with the capacitor forms a smaller time constant than the input resistance and capacitor.

Abstract: A radio receiver for reception of medium wave broadcasts comprises a PLL-synthesizer-tuner, a CPU, a level detector, RAM, ROM and display. In order to receive broadcasts in these parts of the world where the interval between the broadcast frequencies is 9 kHz as well as those where this interval is 10 kHz, an automatic switching of the interval of received frequencies is used, based on the time difference between a reference time (e.g. GMT) and the local time. 
     A user has to enter the local time using a keypad on the receiver set; the receiver sets automatically the correct requency interval.

Abstract: Method for adapting the amount of messages with a number of various identities transferred between a transmitter (1) and a receiver (2). The transfer is accomplished in such a way that no essential information is lost even if the message rate (d1) from the transmitter exceeds the possible transfer rate (d2). According to the invention a data area is created in which each message with a certain identity is stored while awaiting to be transferred. When a new message with the same identity as an earlier stored message is supplied to the data area, the new message replaces the earlier stored message. The messages stored in the data area are scanned and are transferred to the receiver at a rate which is adapted to the rate possible for the transfer.

Abstract: A suturing instrument of suturing tissue comprises an elongated housing having opposite ends. A curved suturing needle having a pointed end and a second end to which a suture is attached and supported at one end of the housing for rotational motion about an axis. A driver mechanism in the housing rotates said needle about said axis through successive revolutions, and a suture tensioner in the housing applies tension to the suture to draw the suture toward the other end of said housing following each revolution of said needle. In its operation, the instrument thus emulates the actions of a surgeon suturing manually.

Abstract: An apparatus of forming non-agglomerated nanostructured ceramic (n-ceramic) powders from metalorganic precursors combines rapid thermal decomposition of a precursor/carrier gas stream in a hot tubular reactor with rapid condensation of the product particles on a cold substrate under a reduced inert gas pressure of 1-50 mbar. A wide variety of metalorganic precursors is available. The apparatus is particularly suitable for formation of n-SiCxNy powders from hexamethyl-disilizane or the formation of n-ZrOxCy powders from zirconium tertiary butoxide. The n-SiCxNy compounds can be further reacted to form SiC or Si3N4 whiskers, individually or in random-weave form, by heating in a hydrogen or ammonia atmosphere. The non-agglomerated n-ceramic powders form uniformly dense powder compacts by cold pressing which can be sintered to theoretical density at temperatures as low as 0.5 Tm. By appropriate choice of precursor compound and carrier gas, this apparatus can be used to produce nanoosized powders of almost any desired material, including metals, intermetallics, semiconductors, superconductors, ferro-electrics, optically active materials and magnetic materials, as well as their composites.
