Patent EP-1363276-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SUGIE NOBORU
IPC: G11B7/125
Filed: 2000-04-14
Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and apparatus for dynamically varying a linear
velocity of an optical drive during a write operation to an optical disc to reduce the likelihood of a buffer
under-run event. By reducing a linear velocity and writing speed while the optical drive writes on the
disc, an embodiment of the invention preserves the buffer and reduces a minimum data transfer rate
required to sustain writing to the disc for a sustained period of time. The basic components of one
embodiment of a CD-RW drive (100) in which the present invention may be implemented include a
controller (110), a microcontroller (112), a nonvolatile memory (114), which stores firmware (116)
executed by the microcontroller (112), a buffer (118), a spindle motor (120) and an optical pick-up (122).

Abstract: An arm assembly (21) on a chair (11) includes an
armrest (22) which adjacent one end is connected to an upper
end of a support column (23). The support column is axially
slidably supported within an elongate support tube (61)
which projects downwardly adjacent a side of the chair seat
(14). The support column and support tube have a
cooperating linear anti-friction bearing arrangement (71)
therebetween, the latter incorporating a resilient support
track (77) to eliminate circumferential clearance. A latch
member (82) is carried on the column and cooperates with a
plurality of latch-receiving slots (85) formed in the
support tube. The latch member is activated by a push rod
(91) which projects upwardly through the support column, and
at its upper end is activated by a lever (93) which
terminates in a button (96) adjacent the front of the
armrest. The latch member (82) has an inclined cam surface
(87) and the lower end of the push rod (91) has a cam roller
(88) which on downward movement of the push rod effects
sideways movement of the latch member and disengagement of
the latch member from the slots (85).

Abstract: A residual current detection circuit comprises a current transformer CT for detecting an imbalance current indicative of a residual current and a full wave restifier FWR for providing an output whose amplitude corresponds to the magnitude of the residual current. The FWR output is applied simultaneously to two channels. The first channel includes a first comparator COMP 1 to provide a first signal which persists during periods when the amplitude of the output exceeds a first level. The second channel includes a capacitor C 2 which acquires a charge corresponding to the output level and a second comparator COMP 2 for providing a second signal in response to the capacitor voltage exceeding a second level. An output is provided from the circuit only when the first signal is coincident with the second signal.

Abstract: As a tape recording format, tracks are formed by a
succession of block units, and a data unit called a group
is formed by data of size equivalent to a predetermined
plurality of tracks. Using this format, a base group number
indicating the group to which the current track physically
belongs is recorded in the ID information for a track, and
the lower four bits or similar of a group number indicating
the group to which the current block logically belongs is
recorded within a block. By this means, even if rewriting
is performed in block units and a recorded state results in
which the blocks of a plurality of groups are intermixed
within a track, the group to which each block belongs can
be correctly identified during reproduction.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for providing reconnection to a ferrule (1) of a service line via a bore (2) of the ferrule (1) from within a bore (3) of a lined host pipe (4) adapted to carry a fluid, comprising the steps of locally enlarging a bore (2 or 3) of a member of the ferrule/host pipe system (1, 4), lining the host pipe with a liner (5), locating the ferrule (11) from within the lined host pipe (4), forming a passage for fluid through the liner (5) to the ferrule (1), and forming a seal with the system whereby to obviate leakage of fluid between the liner and host pipe. The host pipe (4) can be a main such as a water, oil or gas main, and the service line can be a branch pipe to carry say water from the host pipe (4) into a building such as a dwelling. A standard-sized local enlargement in the ferrule/host pipe system can be formed. This thus ensures uniformity and where local enlargement of the bore of the ferrule is used, one operation can be used in whatever size of ferrule is inserted in the host pipe. Thus, it is often the case that different sizes of ferrule are used adjacent one another in a length of host pipe.
