Abstract: A serial printer for performing a record through a recording means while synchronizing with a movement of a carriage (1) reciprocated on an apparatus body and mounted with the recording means. A position of a linear encoder (501) is detected by a detecting portion (102,103). A detecting signal from this detecting portion is compared with a reference voltage, and a pulse output as a synchronous signal is generated. A duty of this pulse output is adjusted to obtain a well-recorded result.

Abstract: An optical scanner including a semiconductor laser device, aperture, collimator, cylindrical lens, polygonal mirror and one fϑ lens element molded from plastics. The first surface of the fϑ lens in a deflecting plane (or the plane formed by the principal rays of light as deflected by the polygonal mirror) is aspheric whereas the second lens surface is toric. When taken in the deflecting plane, the first lens surface has a positive value of the near-axis radius of curvature and, hence, it is convex toward the polygonal mirror. Taken in a plane crossing the deflecting plane at right angles, the first lens surface forms an arc of a circle having a negative value of the radius of curvature and, hence, it is concave toward the polygonal mirror. When taken in the deflecting plane, the second lens surface forms an arc of a circle having a negative value of the radius of curvature and, hence, it is convex toward the scanning surface.

IPC: F02P3/02
Filed: 1994-11-07
Abstract: A method for detecting misfire in the combustion cylinder of a spark ignition internal combustion engine. The method includes the steps of charging an ignition transformer to a maximum ignition charge and initiating an ignition discharge between electrodes of the spark plug. The ignition transformer is then charged to a predetermined diagnostic charge which is less than said maximum ignition charge. If combustion is occurring within the cylinder, the temperature and pressure near the spark plug will be sufficient to allow the diagnostic charge to discharge. If the diagnostic charge does not discharge, the charge will be reflected back into the ignition transformer where it will be detected by a circuit as an indicia of misfire. Further also detection of autoginition, preignition and engine load. Use is made of special CPP ignition transformers which are able to refire at short intervals. Multispark ignition applied during hard engine operating conditions e.g. cold starting.

Abstract: Debiting antennas (50) disposed on a first gantry (44) are used to communicate with an in-vehicle unit (IU; 62) mounted on the vehicle (48) for debiting. The passages of the vehicles (48) are detected by the loop coils (60) or line scanners (58), and the license plates, etc., of the vehicles (48) are photographed by enforcement cameras (52). Debiting confirmation antennas (56) on second gantry (46) are used to communicate with the IU (62) for the confirmation of debiting. When the normal debiting is confirmed, a local controller (66) informs a system central controller (68) of the fact, whereas when abnormal debiting is confirmed, images of the license plate, etc., of the illegal vehicle are transmitted to the system central controller (68) as illegal vehicle images (48).

Abstract: The present invention provides compound laser system for generating beams of high brightness and high power density by constructive phase coherent combination of the beams generated by a number of individual sources of coherent radiation. In one preferred embodiment, it provides a system for the delivery of high powered output from a set of inexpensive, comparatively low-powered diode lasers and comprises three subsystems: a diode laser subsystem which is the source of power for the system; a combiner subsystem which combines the output of the diode lasers; and, an optional delivery subsystem which may be needed to deliver the combined output to its desired destination for industrial or medical applications. 
     The combiner subsystem may be implemented in its entirety as an Integrated Optical Combiner, a single component, performing all the combiner subsystem's functions. Different preferred embodiments of Phase Coherent Integrated Optical Combiners are proposed. One of them employs an optical fiber having a shaped core to provide efficient matching to the geometry of typical laser diodes. Each diode laser's output of a diode laser array is captured by a single optical fiber with a core whose cross-sectional shape is contoured so that major and minor axes of a laser diode's output shape are not larger than major and minor axes of a optical waveguide and whose numerical apertures are closely matched to the numerical apertures in the directions of corresponding axes.
