Patent EP-0779715-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SIITARI KIMMO
IPC: H01H13/702
Filed: 1996-12-04
Abstract: The invention relates to a keyboard structure (13) which is particularly suited to
film keyboards and where EMC protection can be realized by structural means,
with fewer auxiliary components than in the prior art. A metal bubble (7), which
is the switching member of the keys, is permanently coupled to ground, so that it
establishes an ESD protection. The row and column conductors (3a - 4d) are
coupled to voltage dividers (11, 12), so that a given row and a given column
correspond to a given pair of analog voltage values (V 14 , V 16 ). Each pair of values
unambiguously corresponds to a certain key. The analog voltage values are
converted to digital form in the A/D converters (19, 20) provided in the
microprocessor (8) or in a connected auxiliary circuit, such as a bus buffer.

Abstract: In a method of calculating a color correcting condition for a
color image composed of plural pixels each separated into
plural primary color density values, a statistic indicating a
relationship between a primary color density value and a
number of pixels showing the primary color density value is
made for each primary color; a specific density value
corresponding to a predetermined statistic value for each
primary color from the statistic is calculated; an extracting
condition for each primary color is determined based on the
obtained specific density value; specific pixels are extracted
from the plural pixels of the color image so as to satisfy the
extracting condition; and the color correcting condition is
determined based on the plural primary color density values of
the extracted specific pixels.

is connected to a power source through a switch and staples
a sheet stack (3) inserted into a throat (4). An actuator (7) is
adapted to abut against an edge of a sheet stack (3) at a
plurality of positions along the edge of the sheet stack (3)
and to be moved by the sheet stack (3) in response to insertion
thereof to an operative position where it operates the
switch (11) to actuate the stapling mechanism. A sub-actuator (20)
is positioned in front of the actuator (7) and is movable
between an erected position where it stands into the sheet
stack insertion passage to abut against a sheet stack (3) when
the sheet stack (3) is inserted into the throat (4) and a
horizontal position where it is retracted from the sheet
stack insertion passage not to abut against a sheet stack (3).
The sub-actuator (20) is adapted to abut against a pair of
adjacent edges (3b,3c) of a sheet stack forming a corner of the
sheet stack (3) when it is in the erected position and is
movable to drive the actuator (7) to said operative position
pushed by the sheet stack (3) as the sheet stack (3) is further

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of making or using an article
of manufacture in the form of a polishing pad (10) for polishing or planarizing a
surface of an electronic substrate, as well as a planarized semiconductor device made
thereby. The pad comprises an elastomeric, polymeric matrix (14) impregnated with a
plurality of hollow (22), flexible, polymeric microelements (16, 16'). The pad has a
work surface (18) and a subsurface (24) proximate to the work surface. One portion
(16') of the polymeric microelements is at the work surface and another portion (16) of
the polymeric microelements is embedded within the subsurface of the pad that is not
exposed to the working environment. The work surface of the pad is relatively softer
than the subsurface as a result of mechanically opening or chemically altering the shells
of at least some of the hollow, flexible, polymeric microelements located proximate the
work surface such that the open polymeric microelements are less rigid than the
polymeric microelements embedded in the subsurface, or by texturizing the work
surface, thereby causing the work surface to be softer than the subsurface.

Abstract: A method is provided for forming non-overlapping clock
signals 402 and 404 for an integrated circuit. A reference
clock 300 whose frequency is twice that of a desired operating
frequency for the integrated circuit is used. A master clock
signal is formed which has a high pulse width T9a which is
approximately the same as the high pulse width of the
reference clock, but the frequency of the master clock is one
half the frequency of the reference clock. Likewise, a slave
clock signal is formed which has a high pulse width T10a which
is approximately the same as the high pulse width of the
reference clock, but the frequency of the slave clock is also
one half the frequency of the reference clock. The high pulse
width of either or both the master clock signal and slave
clock signal is then widened by an analog delay means, but by
an amount T13 and T14 which is less than the low pulse width
of the reference clock, so that the master clock signal and
the slave clock signal do not overlap each other. As the
propagation time of circuit elements within the integrated
circuit varies due to changes in operating temperature or
voltage, the analog delay T13 and T14 is changed
proportionally to compensate for the changes in propagation
time of the circuit elements.

Abstract: A data control apparatus is structured to
execute complementary recording on one pixel array by
dividing the scans of a recording head into four. In a
nozzle context memory, the nozzle context data, which
can be updated, are stored as control data to determine
discharge or non-discharge of ink from discharge ports.
In an operational circuit, the nozzle context data and
image data are processed operationally, thus outputting
drive data for the recording head. The data that
indicates ink discharge in one pixel array are
sequentially assigned to recording data per scan
appropriately by use of the nozzle context data and the
operational circuit. With the structure thus arranged,
it is possible to implement making the capacity of
memory smaller for use of data to control recording or
non-recording, and also, to execute an intermittent
recording by controlling recording or non-recording as
required.

Abstract: Cards are fed to and held on a sorting table (10) which rotates between various analysis positions. Cards are fed to and held on a sorting table (10) which rotates between various analysis positions. Cards with contact functioning electronic chips are detected by passing test contacts; cards with contact functioning chips or magnetic strips are identified by optical examination of the card structure; cards based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) are detected by a Beilstein test involving pyrolysis and those based on acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) are identified by infrared inspection. An independent claim is made for an equipment for the automatic sorting process. Preferred Features: PVC based cards are identified by pyrolysing and by detecting light emission in the 500-530 nm range. ABS based cards are identified by the nitrile groups through measuring the absorption of the card in the infrared range with wave lengths of 4.2-4.6 microns. The sorting table (1) is circular and has rectangular, radially arranged card holders (11) in which cards are held by vacuum. Movement of the sorting table is incremental between identification, punching and ejection equipment (a-e) located opposite each segment of the sorting table. Chip-carrying telephone cards are identified by test heads passing over cards to sense contact faces. Optical investigation is by a light source directed at a specific onto the cards on the table and an optical sensor which distinguishes between cards with contacts and those with magnetic strips. Copper powder and binder in a solvent are applied before the pyrolysis which is effected by laser or by spark excitation using copper electrodes. Openings in the base of the sorting table allow for punching out chips. Remaining cards are ejected from the base of the card holders either mechanically or with compressed air.
