Filed: 1998-05-21
Abstract: A bus control apparatus is provided for use with a
bus having a hierarchical structure including an upper
hierarchical bus (16) and a lower hierarchical bus
(18). A priority decision circuit (26) decides
priorities of a plurality of slots (20-1,...,20-4) on
the basis of access frequencies or the like. In
conformity with these priorities, a bus mapping circuit
(24-1,24-2) performs mapping allowing a slot having a
higher priority to be connected to the upper
hierarchical bus (16) whereas it performs mapping
allowing a slot having a lower priority to be connected
to the lower hierarchical bus (18).

Abstract: An exchange (12) has a cross-point switch that is arranged to couple data
transmission between subscriber terminals (16, 18), each having a dedicated
modem (34), and at least one assignable modem (148) located in the
exchange (12). The exchange (12) comprises fewer assignable modems than
a combined number of dedicated modems within the subscriber terminals (16,
18) and, since the cross-point switch (106) is responsive to the data
transmission sent via the modems of the subscriber terminals, the cross-point
switch (106) thereby acts to concentrate a ratio of dedicated modems to
assignable modems.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method to handle dummy blocks without
real data in a file management system. More specifically, block allocation m eans
30 is provided with a function of counting the number of dummy blocks without real
data when there is a request to write new data at a file offset address one or
more blocks away from the last file offset On in a specific file, and the
unoccupied block management means 40 is additionally given a function of managing
the number of unoccupied blocks subtracting the number of dummy blocks from the
number of unoccupied blocks. That always leaves the number of unoccupied blocks
with the number of the necessary blocks subtracted therefrom. The blocks
necessary for later writing can be secured.

Abstract: Tool feed speed Fa (mm/min) is calculated for each tool feed step on the
basis of a tool feed speed F (mm/rev) specified in advance and the actual
rotational speed Sact of the spindle (rev/min). The tool feed speed Fa
(mm/min) and the tool feed speed Fold of the previous cycle (initially, a value
based on the maximum rotational speed S of the spindle as a tentative feed
speed Fold) are compared, and if a change has been detected, a tool feed
speed Fb (mm/min) for the subsequent tool feed step is calculated based on
the relation between the tool feed speed Fc (mm/min) based on the
subsequent maximum rotational speed S of the spindle (rev/min), the
maximum rotational speed S of the spindle (rev/min), and the rotational
speed Sact of the spindle (rev/min); and the tool feed speed undergoes
pre-interpolation acceleration/deceleration control on the bass of the
subsequent tool feed speed Fb (mm/min) and the tool feed speed Fa (mm/min).

Abstract: An asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switch (20) has plural switch ports (24) connected by respective bidirectional links (27, 28) to a switch core (22). Connected to each switch port is a corresponding row column unit (40), each row column unit managing the writing of service cells to one row of cross point units (32) and the reading of service cells from one column of cross point units. The bidirectional links between each switch port and its corresponding row column unit of the switch core carry both service cells and control cells. Cells of differing sizes are carried on the bidirectional links between the switch core and the switch ports. Service cells have a differing cell size than the control cells, and the cell size of the service cells need not necessarily be uniform. Differing types of control cells -- link connection control (LCC) cells and link synhronization control (LSC) cells are provided. The link connection control cells (LCC) are used e.g., to read and write control data into and from control registers of the switch core. The link connection control cells (LCC) include cells of two formats -- a bitmapped format (for reading/writing with respect to bitmapped control registers) and a 'coded' format (used for input/output operations for some bitmapped as well as non-bitmapped registers).

Abstract: A laser satellite communication system which avoids atmospheric, wind and turbulence effects. A satellite or high altitude platform communication system includes an earth-orbiting satellite or high altitude platform carrying a laser communications receiver and an acknowledgement transmitter. A ground terminal having a laser communications transmitter which is caused to continuously transmit large data block signals. When one block of data signals is received at the satellite or platform, an acknowledgement signal is sent to earth from the satellite or platform. The ground terminal receives the acknowledgement signal and causes the ground terminal laser communication transmitter to continuously transmit the next succeeding large block data signals. This process is repeated until all of the data has been received by the earth-orbiting satellite or high altitude platform, whereby all of the large data block signals are received by the laser communication receiver through scintillation windows in the atmosphere.

Abstract: A fixing device control system controls multiple heating elements (301, 302,
401, 402, 501, 502) included in the fuser (300, 400, 500) so that the duty
cycle of the power applied to the multiple heating elements (301, 302, 401,
402, 501, 502) results in an optimal temperature profile over the length of the
fuser (300, 400, 500). Multiple thermistors are used in a feedback control
circuit to regulate the temperature profile of the fuser (300, 400, 500). A
formatter (24) uses print data from a host to generate data defining the size and
location of a printing area on the print media (12). Using the data defining the
size and location of the printing area, the formatter (24) generates a command
to send to a controller (26). The controller (26) applies power to the multiple
heating elements (301, 302, 401, 402, 501, 502) in order to generate the fuser
temperature profile corresponding to the command. In a first embodiment of the
fixing device control system, the formatter (24) generates the command by
using the data defining the size and location of the printing area to access
information stored in a table. In a second embodiment of the fixing device
control system, the formatter (24) computes the command from the data
defining the printing area.

Abstract: Upon depression of a depression surface (7) of an
operating knob (6) of a switch assembly (1), a depression
working surface (10) pushes down the head portion of a
rubber contact (5), and a switching operation is
performed. The operating knob (6) is pushed up by the
return elastic force of the rubber contact and returned
to its original position. Then the upper face of the
depression portion (9) abuts against the correction
member (4). As the correction member (4) is positioned
directly above the rubber contact (5), the moment
generated by the return elastic force of the rubber
contact is offset and the operating knob is straightened
and maintained to be in a horizontal position.
Therefore, the side surfaces of the head portion (8)
projecting from the operation hole (3) of the switch case
barely rub against the side edges of the operation hole
(3) in a depressed state owing to inclination of the
operating knob.

Abstract: The recovery of solid components of a suspension comprises the use of a moving band made of absorbent material, which forms part of the final product, that is dried after its pass through the suspension, gathered and eventually shredded. The solid components of a suspension are collected on a band (2), unreeled, passed horizontally through the suspension and then through a drier (11) from where it is reeled. The material of the band is absorbent and comprises recycled paper or various fibers. This band is eventually shredded to provide the final product, e.g. building plaster, so that the material of the band forms part of the product. The rate at which the band passes through the bath determines the amount of deposit and this can be regulated automatically by measuring the band thickness at a sensor (8). The band rises vertically out of the bath so that surplus fluid can drop back into it. The drier is heated by gas, oil or electricity, in the latter case preferably by microwave radiation. A temperature range of 60-80 degrees C is possible in the drier, i.e. low enough to prevent glazing of material such as plaster. Pre-drying squeeze rollers may be present. The suspension is maintained by a stirrer (14). The bath may be heated to prevent premature crystallization.
