Abstract: Knives (1) are clamped in longitudinal grooves (201) of the rotary cutter rotor body (2) e.g. for granulation of extruded plastic, by screws (3). An area (502) of a plate (5) is inserted into the groove so that one side (103) of the blade presses against it. The area of the plate (501) above the groove is bent over to bear against the surface (202) of the rotor body between adjacent knife grooves to protect it from abrasive wear by the material being cut. Preferably, the area of the sheet in the groove is corrugated and the area exposed to wear is joined to it by e.g. welding, being a wear-resistant material or being coated with ceramic or hard metal.

Abstract: A system for aging an original date value to an aged date value. The
system includes a date conversion module which is located between an input
device and an application program. The date conversion module intercepts data
from the input device, identifies any original date values in the data and then
converts the original date value by aging, unless the original date value is an
exceptional value. If the original date value is an exceptional value, the date
value is not converted. The data, including any aged date values, are then passed
to an application program. The date conversion module can then reverse the
conversion for date values received from the application program. In addition, a
system is provided for converting an original currency value to another currency.
The monetary conversion module receives the original currency value, a
reference date for performing the conversion and a type of the original currency,
and the name of the currency to which the value should be converted. The
conversion is then performed according to an exchange rate formula. In addition,
the present invention could be used for other types of conversions, such as the
conversion of different types of units of measurement, or to determine the
presence or absence of a decimal point in a numerical value.

Abstract: A sheet feeding apparatus includes a carrier
portion, a suction belt, a servo motor, a blower, a
solenoid valve, a pressure sensor, a position sensor, a
belt hole sensor, and a controller. The carrier portion
feeds a plurality of sheets of different sizes in a
direction of their thickness in an upright state. The
suction belt has a belt hole for drawing each sheet fed
from the carrier portion by suction, so as to feed out
each sheet drawn by suction with the belt hole. The
servo motor drives the suction belt. The blower
generates a pressure for drawing the sheet by suction in
the belt hole. The solenoid valve enables/disconnects
supply of the negative pressure from the blower to the
belt hole. The pressure sensor measures a pressure in
the belt hole. The position sensor detects the sheet
fed out by the suction belt. The belt hole sensor
detects the belt hole after the sheet is fed out. The
controller controls operations of the solenoid valve and
the servo motor on the basis of detection outputs from
the pressure sensor, the position sensor, and the belt
hole sensor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a limiting-current type
hydrocarbon sensor comprising a solid-electrolytic layer
made of a Ba-Ce-based oxide, and provides a sensor capable
of stably detecting hydrocarbon at high sensitivity,
regardless of the concentration of oxygen in an atmosphere.
A material mainly containing Al is used for at least one of
two electrodes on the solid-electrolytic layer made of a
Ba-Ce-based oxide to block oxygen at the electrode, i.e.
cathode, whereby a hydrocarbon sensor being stable, high in
sensitivity, compact, easy to use and low in cost can be
provided. Furthermore, the other electrode, anode, of the
limiting-current type hydrocarbon sensor is made of a
material mainly containing Ag. The limiting-current type
hydrocarbon sensor comprises a thin sensor-use solid-electrolytic
layer capable of conducting protons and oxide
ions, a pair of sensor-use electrodes formed on both sides
of the solid-electrolytic layer, one electrode on each side,
and a gas diffusion rate determining layer formed on the
side of the cathode, one of the pair of electrodes. On the
sensor-use solid-electrolytic layer on the side of the
anode, a solid ion pump for transferring oxygen, hydrogen
or water vapor is provided between the anode and the
atmosphere under measurement.

Abstract: A dielectric filter includes a case (15), a substrate
(6) having microstrip lines formed thereon, and a dielectric
plate (3) having non-electrode parts (4a, 4b, 4c) serving as
dielectric resonators. The case (15) includes a supporting
part for supporting the lower surface of the dielectric
plate (3) and includes a side wall surrounding the side
faces of the dielectric plate (3) wherein the supporting
part and the side wall are formed in an integral fashion.
The substrate (6) is bonded to the case (15) and the
dielectric plate (3) is mounted on the supporting part of
the case. A metal cover (8) is then placed on the case (15)
such that the opening of the case is closed with the cover. 
     In the dielectric filter constructed in the above-described
manner, warping of the case (15) for supporting the
dielectric plate (3) is suppressed and thus the stress
exerted on the dielectric plate (3) is reduced. As a
result, the dielectric plate (3) is prevented from being
separated from the case (15) and also prevented from having
a crack. The above-described structure also allows the
dielectric filter to be formed into a small size. The
invention also provides a duplexer and a communication 
device using such a dielectric filter.

Abstract: When the radio circuit apparatus is transmitting, the
output signal of the first local oscillator 102 is inputted to
the transmitted frequency converter 112 as well as to the
frequency divider 104, and then the output signal of the
frequency divider 104 is inputted to the modulator 111. The
modulator 111 modulates the output signal of the frequency
divider 104 with a base band signal. The output signal of the
modulator 111 is inputted to the transmitted frequency converter
112, to be converted to the frequency of a transmitted signal
by the output signal of the first local oscillator 102. When
the radio circuit apparatus is receiving, the output signal of
the low noise amplifier 121 is inputted to the first frequency
converter 122 to be converted to the first intermediate frequency
by the output signal of the first local oscillator 102. The
output signal of the filter 123 is inputted to the second
frequency converter circuit 124 to be converted to the second
intermediate frequency by the output signal of the second local
oscillator 103. Thereby, unnecessary components for
transmission can be easily lowered to make it possible to
miniaturize the radio circuit apparatus.

to relay the command to another radio frequency transceiver (30)
located in the vehicle (15). In response to receiving the
command, a control circuit (15) in the vehicle activates a device
(20) that performs the function indicated by the command.

Inventor: AIZAWA MASAMI
IPC: H04B1/10

Abstract: When there is an interference by frequency
selective noise, the gain of a particular carrier drops,
but the amplitude of the carrier is returned to its
usual value by equalization. At this time, however,
the C/N value of the carrier degrades, and therefore
its dispersion value increases. Accordingly,
concerning dispersion values along the frequency axis,
it is understood that the carrier with a high
dispersion value is interrupted by frequency selective
noise. In light of this, the dispersion value of each
carrier is calculated from a corresponding demodulation
output of a noise detecting section (9), thereby
determining, from the dispersion value, the carrier
interrupted by frequency selective noise, then
weighting the demodulated signal of the carrier, and
performing error correction such as erasure decoding by
an error correcting section (8). As a result, even
when there is an interference by frequency selective
noise, effective error correction can be performed to
thereby enhance the characteristics of a receiving
system.
