Abstract: An improved electric solenoid for providing linear mechanical actuation.
The outer polepiece of the solenoid is provided with an axial, self-lubricated,
non-magnetic bearing for closely supporting and centering an actuating shaft
extending coaxially from the solenoid armature. Preferably, the radial tolerance
between the diameters of the bearing inner bore and the shaft is as small as in
practically possible without inducing drag of the shaft in the bearing, permitting
reduction of the air gap between the armature and the polepieces to a minimal
thickness. Preferably, the armature is axially tapered to avoid contact of the
armature with the polepieces as a result of residual tolerances between the
bearing and shaft. A significant increase in actuating force is realized in
comparison with a prior art solenoid, and the improved solenoid may be used in
any desired orientation.

Abstract: An event clustering method uses foreground and background
segmentation for clustering images from a group into similar events. Initially,
each image is divided into a plurality of blocks, thereby providing block-based
images. Utilizing a block-by-block comparison, each block-based image is
segmented into a plurality of regions comprising at least a foreground and a
background. One or more luminosity, color, position or size features are
extracted from the regions and the extracted features are utilized to estimate and
compare the similarity of the regions comprising the foreground and background
in successive images in the group. Then, a measure of the total similarity between
successive images is computed, thereby providing image distance between
successive images, and event clusters are delimited from the image distances.

IPC: G11B7/09

Abstract: An optical pickup actuator provides coils for driving
an optical pickup in a focus direction, a track direction,
and a tilt direction, respectively. The coils are
arranged at two opposites sides of a bobbin, thereby
providing free space on the remaining sides of the bobbin.
A focus coil (FC) is also used as a tilt coil. The
optical pickup actuator is driven by arranging the focus
and tilt coils into sets (e.g. FC1 & 2, FC3 & 4), and
applying an input signal to each of the sets. Thus, since
driving in the focus direction and the tilt direction can
be controlled together by a single coil, the number of the
support member can be reduced and a defect ratio can be
lowered. Both three and four axes driving can be stably
implemented.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an ink jet printer
head fabricating method involving forming electrodes on
surfaces of plural grooves by an electroless plating method
using a wet process, the plural grooves being formed in a
laminate substrate constituted by a laminate of two
piezoelectric members, cutting off an end face of the
laminate substrate which end face is located on an open
side of the grooves, by means of a dicing saw, and
subsequently removing burrs of the electrodes by brushing
with a brushing device. Burrs of the electrodes formed on
the surfaces of the grooves are removed by the brushing
completely without chipping or cracking of the electrodes,
thereby preventing defects in ink ejection such as
misdirection, i.e., failure to make a straight flying of
ink droplets, and unstable flying of ink.

Inventor: WILLSON C GRANT
IPC: G03F7/26
Filed: 2002-05-16
Abstract: A high-throughput lithography process for creating high-resolution patterns in a polymerizable composition using carefully controlled electric fields followed by curing of the polymerizable composition is described. The process involves the use of a template that includes the desired patterns. This template is brought into close proximity to the polymerizable composition on the substrate. An external electric field is applied to the template-substrate interface while maintaining a uniform, carefully controlled gap between the template and substrate. This causes the polymerizable composition to be attracted to the raised portions of the template. By appropriately choosing the various process parameters such as the viscosity of the polymerizable composition, the magnitude of the electric field, and the distance between the template and substrate, the resolution of the structures formed in the liquid may be controlled to conform to that of the template.
