Abstract: A confocal optical scanner which realizes optical scanning without bringing about nonuniformity in brightness at inside and outside periphery of pinhole disk (Nipkow disk) by arraying pinholes along spiral tracks in equal pitch (Pϑ, Pr), allows adjustment of decentering to be performed readily by disposing pinholes so that stripes are hardly developed even if decentering is large. It allows more incident light to be collected to the pinholes through a plurality of collector means (Fresnel lenses, mirrors, microlenses) by disposing the pinholes respectively at focal positions of the collector means and improves luminous utilization efficacy by reducing illumination area of light by adopting collector means that focus at outside of aperture pupil. It prevents drop of confocal resolution obtained from pinhole diameter by structuring so that return light from a sample will not enter a collector disk and reduces stray light from the pinhole disk by covering non-collector means portion of the collector disk by a shading film.

Abstract: composite vibration-damping materials having a resin layer sandwiched between two metal sheets can be produced by reacting prepolymers with low-molecular weight compounds having functional groups capable of reacting with the functional groups in said prepolymers to form covalent bonds and handling the resulting crosslinked resin in such a way that it is sandwiched between the two metal sheets. In accordance with the first embodiment of the invention, two low-molecular weight compounds having different numbers of functional groups per molecule are used ; in accordance with the second embodiment, two prepolymers having different numbers of functional groups per molecular chain are used ; and in accordance with the third embodiment, a mixture of a first prepolymer and a low-molecular weight compound is coated on at least one surface of two metal sheets and then a second prepolymer is dusted over the coated surface nonuniformly, followed by compressing the two metal sheets together. The thus produced composite vibration-damping materials not only exhibit satisfactory damping performance over a broad temperature range but also develop high adhesive force between the resin and metal sheets at both ordinary and elevated temperatures. In addition, good spot weldability can be imparted to the damping materials by incorporation of an electroconductive filler.

Abstract: A means and method of describing a complex color raster image as a collection of objects in a hierarchical and device independent format. The purpose of structured imaging (SI) is to expand the scope of a raster image to a collection of individually manipulable component objects. An SI is a hierarchical description of a single output image raster which may be used as one component of a page in a structured document. Objects contributing to the output raster may originate from text, graphics, other rasters or a combination thereof, and all maintain their heritage for selectability and modification. The SI describes not only the source data but also the image processing operations required for rendering the output raster. SI technology supports re-editability, customization and enhancement, automatic image assembly and high performance imaging. Thus, such a model has implications not only in an image editing and processing arena, but also in the filing and printing services used for image handling.
