Inventor: SARUTA TOSHIHISA
IPC: B41J2/205
Filed: 1996-04-18
Abstract: A drive device for an ink jet type printing head is described which makes it possible to jet ink droplets having different sizes from the same nozzle (2), and with which the resultant image is high in picture quality and in gradation, and the printing operation is achieved at high speed. The drive device includes a drive signal generating circuit (23) which outputs within one printing period a first drive signal which is used to jet a relatively large ink droplet from the nozzle opening (2), and a second drive signal in succession to the first drive signal which is used to jet a relatively small ink droplet from the same nozzle opening (2). In response to a printing signal, one of the first and second drive signals is selected and applied to the piezo-electric elements (6) of the printing head. Thus, ink droplets having different sizes are jetted from the same ink nozzle.

Abstract: A system for supplying molten thermoplastic material to a dispenser through a supply hose comprises a hopper for storing the thermoplastic material. A heating grid associated with the hopper heats and melts the thermoplastic material. A reservoir block receives the melted material from the grid. The reservoir block includes a reservoir into which the melted material flows from the grid. A manifold assembly is supported below the reservoir block for receiving material from the reservoir. The manifold assembly includes a fitting for connection to the supply hose, a pump for pumping the material through the supply hose to the dispenser, a passageway system connecting the pump to the fitting for supplying a flow of material from the pump to the fitting, a filter connected to the passageway system for filtering impurities in the material after the material has been pumped, and a valving arrangement connected to the passageway system and separate from the filter which selectively directs a flow of the material in the passageway system through the filter to backflush the filter. The filter and the valving arrangement permit the filter to be backflushed without dislodging the contaminants in the filter. The backflushing capability allows the filter to be cleaned periodically without removal of the filter and without changing the position of the filter. When the filter is backflushed, the material flows through a drain valve assembly which opens automatically in response to pressure of the material from the pump.

temperature range  c  representing a normal level. The
calculating portion 9p executes an alarm control process for
making the alarm lamp 14 light up continuously when the
detected oil temperature is in the first oil temperature
range  a , making the alarm lamp 14 blink when it is in the
second oil temperature range  b , and making the alarm lamp 14
turn out when it is in the third oil temperature range  c .
This enables a front control system for a construction
machine to perform front control accurately and safely even
when the temperature of hydraulic oil is low.

Abstract: There are provided an ohmic electrode capable
of operating elements stably for a long period by making
contact specific resistance smaller and also
increasing thermal stability thereof and a method of
forming the same. An electrode layer is formed on a
p-type compound semiconductor layer composed of p-type
GaN and so on through a contact layer composed
of p-type GaN and so on. The contact layer is formed
by an MBE method, and the hole density is set higher
than that of the p-type compound semiconductor layer.
The electrode layer is formed by laminating a
transition metal layer composed of a transition metal
other than gold or platinum, a platinum layer and a
gold layer one after another and annealing the
laminated layers thereafter. With this, the platinum
layer is made to adhere closely to the p- type compound
semiconductor layer by the transition metal layer while
preventing gold from diffusing toward the p- type
compound semiconductor layer with the platinum layer.

Abstract: A self-propelled agricultural harvesting machine (1) is provided with a single channel network (300) for serial communication of digital data messages between programmable microprocessors (215, 218) in a multi-master configuration. The messages are encoded according to an advanced serial communications protocol and are available to all microprocessors (215, 218). The network comprises an optical transmission network with an active starpoint (230) and plastic optical fibres (231), which link the nodes which lay physically far away from each other. An RS232 socket, which is linked to the network (300), enables loading of data and programs to the microprocessors (215, 218). Thus is obtained a reliable and flexible control system for the machine settings, which comprise on-road and off-road (harvesting) parameters. The introduction of a wide range of automatic control routines simplifies to a large extent the tasks of the operator during operation. The sensors comprise a sensor for establishing the longitudinal inclination of the machine. Its signal can be used for adapting the speed of fan (25).

The control signal is dependent on the detected voltage deviation and provides a measure for a mean value of a nominal current. A third device controls the power unit to adjust an actual current on the output conductor to the mean value of the nominal current. A fourth device is provided between the third device and the power unit, which limits a more inclusive range of the third device to a limited window area in such way, that the power unit delivers always an output voltage which leads to a common output voltage on the common conductor for operating a connected instrument.

Abstract: An epitaxial material (71, 72, 73...) grown laterally in a trench (60)
allows for the fabrication of a trench-based semiconductor material that is
substantially low in dislocation density. Initiating the growth from a
sidewall (61) of a trench (60) minimizes the density of dislocations (54)
present in the lattice growth template, which minimizes the dislocation
density in the regrown material. Also, by allowing the regrowth to fill and
overflow the trench (60), the low dislocation density material (71, 72,
73...) can cover the entire surface of the substrate (52) upon which the low
dislocation density material is grown. Furthermore, with successive
iterations of the trench growth procedure, higher quality material can be
obtained. Devices that require a stable, high quality epitaxial material
can then be fabricated from the low dislocation density material.
