Inventor: OKADA MITSUYA
IPC: G11B7/254
Filed: 1998-06-03
Abstract: An optical data recording medium utilizing reversible
inter-crystalline-amorphous phase changes for recording,
reproducing and erasing data as phase changes of a
recording film caused by laser beam irradiation is
disclosed. The medium is formed by a lamination of a
transparent substrate 1 having tracking guide grooves for
laser beam tracking, a base film 2 formed on the
substrate, a first protective film 3 formed on the base
film, a phase change type recording film 4 formed on the
first protective film, a second protective film 5 formed
on the recording film, and a reflecting film 6 formed on
the second protective film. The thus formed medium
improves the over-writing characteristics of phase change
type optical discs and permits high density recording.

Abstract: A printer and printing control method for improving
throughput by performing efficient smoothing processing.
The printer adopting the method monitors print data while
it is transmitted from a receiving buffer 25a to a print
buffer 25b, analyses the print data by a unit of one scanning
area of a printhead whether the print data causes printing
operation of the printhead, and, if no print data which causes
printing operation is included in the print data
corresponding to the one scanning area, controls to skip
execution of row-column conversion and/or smoothing
processing.

Filed: 1998-11-26
Abstract: An input moving picture signal is selectively coded by intra-picture
coding or inter-picture coding in unit of frame or field to
output a main bit stream. Specific frames or fields carried by the
input moving picture signal are coded by intra-picture coding to
output a subsidiary bit stream. The specific frames or fields are also
coded by the inter-picture coding. The main and subsidiary bit
streams are multiplexed so that the subsidiary bit streams are
periodically inserted in the main bit stream in the vicinity of a
predetermined number of the frames or fields coded by the inter-picture
coding, thus generating an output bit stream. In decoding, a
coding-type of the bit stream is detected and a coding-type signal is
generated. The main and the subsidiary bit streams are selectively
output in response to the coding-type signal in such a way that both
the main and the subsidiary bit streams are output when no
continuous decoding is being performed, while the main bit stream
only is output when continuous decoding is being performed. The
output bit stream is decoded to reproduce pictures carried by the
input bit stream.

Abstract: An attachment assembly for use in connection with the steering
wheel (10) of a vehicle. It consists of a fixed body (14), attached to the
steering column, and a movable body (13), rotatable with respect to the
fixed body (14) and affixed to the steering wheel (10). The movable body (13) and
fixed body (14) together define a toroidal (15) space in which a coiled flat
cable (16) is contained. The ends of the cable (16) carry connectors (16a,16b) from
the electrical system of the vehicle to (for example) an air bag
actuating mechanism. A cable reel (11), made up of the fixed and
movable bodies (13,14) and the flat cable (16), is inserted into a hollow space
in the switch body (12) and is affixed thereto. As a result, the switch
body (12) and its operating lever (20) can be maintained close to the
underside of the steering wheel (10), even if the height of the flat
cable (16) is substantially increased. This permits the operation of
the switches which are part of the switch body (12) while the driver's
hands remain on the rim of the steering wheel (10).

Abstract: A scroll-type variable-capacity compressor is
disclosed in which a single spool is moved to open or
close bypass ports and thereby change the capacity of
compression chambers. Especially, the capacity can be
controlled in satisfactory manner by opening the bypass
ports to a specific position. Specifically, a first
bypass port is arranged in the neighborhood of the
contact point between the inner surface of the spiral
wall of a fixed scroll and the outer surface of the
spiral wall of a movable scroll making up one of the
compression chambers with the capacity thereof reduced to
a predetermined level. A second bypass port is arranged
at a position on the side beyond a discharge port from
the first bypass port but where the discharge port is not
located on the line connecting the particular position
and the first bypass port. The opening of the second
bypass port is arranged at such a position as to be
closed by the spiral wall of the movable scroll defining
the other compression chamber in the state described
above.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for assigning unique addresses to
each generic "node" in a distributed control system that contains
a main controller (52) coupled to a plurality of generic nodes (54)
via a distributed communication bus (55). The main controller
(52) provides currents and/or voltages to the communication
bus (55) via a supply (58). In one embodiment, each node (54)
processes the current and voltages to store reference voltages
and distance voltages proportional to its distance along the
communication bus (55). In another embodiment, each node (54)
signals to the main controller (52) when the distance voltage
reaches a certain value relative to the reference voltage. The
main controller (52) processes the arrival times of these signals to
determine a relative distance to each node (54). This distance
information is used to assign a unique address to each generic
node (54) for identification during normal mode of operation.

corresponding power feed lines is continued. On the other hand, if the
terminal is judged to be a terminal other than the telephone terminal, the
power feeding is stopped.

Abstract: This is a halftone circuit which, in addition to the
usual counting and addressing mechanisms, has control over
the phase, angle and direction of the addressing circuitry
of the array in memory so that regular dots, mirror images
of dots and out-of-phase dots can be created from a single
array, thus saving memory hardware. The mirror images can
be made by counting rows in either direction, the angle can
be varied by varying the number of pixels shifted between
scans, and the phase can be varied by setting the starting
point to any row and column. In this way, a single array
(30) can be used to create a number of dots.
