Abstract: A control device for controlling the running behavior of a four
wheeled vehicle has a mathematical tire model of each wheel defining a
relationship between longitudinal and lateral forces vs. slip ratio,
synthesizes the mathematical tire model at zero slip and a control input from
an outside running behavior controller such as a spin controller or a driftout
controller to generate nominal values of longitudinal force, lateral force and
yaw moment of the vehicle body, and controls the slip ratio of the wheels
through cyclic adjustment so as to approach the differences between the
nominal values and the actual values in the longitudinal force, lateral force
and yaw moment of the vehicle body to the corresponding differences of those
parameters due to differentiation thereof by the slip ratio based upon the
mathematical tire model.

Abstract: A ring member (24) and ring members (58a, 58b) made of
metal are tightened and installed to the outer
circumferential surface of a body (12) made of a resin
material. Accordingly, the body (12) is prevented from
outward deformation. When a tube joint (10) is used in a
high temperature atmosphere, even if any force acts on a
fluid tube (102) in the direction to cause detachment from
the tube joint (10) due to any external force or the
pressure fluid flowing through the inside of the tube joint
(10), then the fluid tube (102) and a connecting member (14)
inserted into the body (12) are reliably prevented from
disengagement.

Abstract: The present invention discloses and claims a novel process for the formation of
high denier as-spun and heat-treated multilobal filaments of a thermotropic liquid
crystalline polymer. Preferred embodiments include process for the formation of as-spun
and heat treated octalobal monofilaments of a few wholly aromatic polyesters and
polyesteramides. The process involves (a) heating of a thermotropic liquid crystalline
polymer to above its melting transition temperature; (b) passing said molten polymer
through an extrusion chamber equipped with an extrusion capillary having a multilobal
cross-section to form a multilobal filament; and (c) winding the filament at a suitable
draw-down. The filaments so formed are of at least 50 denier per filament (dpf) and
feature essentially uniform molecular orientation across their cross-section. In a final
optional step, the filaments are heat treated in stages to form filaments exhibiting
excellent tensile properties. Both as-spun and heat-treated filaments feature
remarkably good tensile properties comparable to those of round filaments. Most
importantly, the multilobal filaments of this invention feature much superior adhesion
properties than the conventional round filaments.

Abstract: Temperature control of heaters 8a and 8b for heating a
printing original plate 2 is performed with an atmosphere
temperature sensor 11, etc., and stably generated heat is shielded
by controlling the rotation angles of reflecting plates 9a and
9b. The leading end of the printing original plate 2 is detected
by a position detection sensor 26 and the transport speed of the
printing original plate 2 is controlled. As the trailing end of
the printing original plate 2 is detected, the rotation angles
of the reflecting plates 9a and 9b are controlled and the heating
amount is controlled in response to the parts of the printing
original plate 2. Accordingly, it is possibly to heat the whole
printing original plate while preventing uneven heating, when the
printing original plate is heated and transported.

Abstract: A conventional, electrically driven, mixer is provided with a set of opposed handles that are clamped to the motor casing by a strap (8). The shape of these handles is such that they act as feet that allow the mixer to be placed on a surface without touching it. Principally the handle (9) is U-shaped so that the mixer lies horizontally as the U-plane sits on the surface. Alternatively the mixer points vertically upwards when the uppermost points of handles (9,10) sit on the surface. Both handles are formed from tubing and finished off with soft, polyurethane, grips. An electric lead passes conveniently through the tubing to a switch (40) in handle (10).

Abstract: An apparatus for limiting the pressure of
inflation fluid injected into one or more balloon of a
catheter device comprising a reservoir chamber having an
inlet port coupled in fluid communication with an
inflation/deflation device and a plurality of outlet ports
coupled in fluid communication with a plurality of
cylindrical housings. Each cylindrical housing includes a
pressure chamber and a valve chamber. The valve chamber
receives a piston moveable between a fully open position
and a closed position and spring biased toward the fully
open position. Each housing includes an outlet port
coupled in fluid communication with a separate balloon of a
catheter device. Each piston includes an internal flow
path which enables the flow of pressurized inflation fluid
from the reservoir chamber to the balloon catheter when the
pressure of the inflation fluid within the balloon is below
the desired cut-off pressure. As the pressure of the
inflation fluid within each balloon increases, the
associated piston is urged toward its closed position.
When the inflation fluid within the each balloon reaches 
the predetermined cut-off pressure level, the associated
piston moves to the closed position and cuts-off the flow
of inflation fluid from the reservoir chamber to the
respective balloon.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus which operates to display an image in real-time on a
finder has an image generating unit 10 for generating image data, and a resolution,
a CCD interface 21a thins out horizontal components of image converting means 21a
which operates to lower the resolution of the image data, by for example one-third,
and also effects inter alia gamma correction and sends the resulting image data to a
camera DSP 21c. The camera DSP 21c effects data conversion and resolution
conversion on the lower resolution image data to convert the data into Y, Cb and Cr
image data which is routed to a memory controller 22. The memory controller 22
writes the image data in the image memory 32 and reads out the data from the
memory controller 22 to route the read-out data over an image data bus 33 to an
NTSC/PAL encoder 23. The NTSC/PAL encoder 23 converts the image data in
resolution and further converts the image data into data of the NTSC or PAL system
to route the resulting data to the finder.
