Abstract: The invention relates to a window-bar hollow section made of metal, in particular aluminium, for an insulating glazing unit, having a longitudinal weld which is arranged invisibly in a section recess. The invention also relates to a method for producing the window-bar hollow section, a colour-plated or anodised strip, in particular of aluminium, preferably being used, in which the longitudinal edges of the strip are formed into a tube by being bent towards one another until they abut, whereupon the longitudinal edges are welded and the tube is further profiled to form the hollow section with predetermined cross-sectional form, and a section recess being formed into the tube in the region of the weld directly after the welding operation in such a way that the weld is situated at the bottom of the section recess so that it cannot be seen from the outside. The invention furthermore relates to a window-bar construction for mounting between two panes of glass, in particular window panes with window-bars consisting of a hollow section, in particular of window-bar hollow sections of the abovementioned type, at least one window-bar cross being formed by attaching to a main hollow section at a predetermined angle at least two mutually aligned transverse sections which surround the main profile in an overlapping manner. To make it possible for the window-bar construction under discussion to be built up on the basis of extremely thin hollow sections, the invention provides that a skeleton be used as connection elements for the particular hollow sections, on which skeleton the hollow sections are placed. Said skeleton comprises a pin which passes through the main section and is fixedly connected to connection elements which are firmly fitted into the transverse hollow sections, insertion openings for the pin being provided in the main section which are dimensioned in such a way that the pin is guided essentially without play in the plane of the window-bar cross but with play transversely with respect to said plane.

Abstract: Described herein is a reflector (3) which is formed of three or more of reflector modules (called stacks (2) hereinafter) arranged in arrays and bonded to each other the stacks (2) being arranged to average the distribution of thermal deformations thereof in terms of inhomogeneity among the stacks (2) in average coefficient of linear expansion, thereby suppressing deformation and deterioration of image-forming performance quality of the reflector (3) under varying temperature conditions. Since the stacks (2) are arranged in order of the magnitude of values of average coefficients of linear expansion possessed by the stacks (2) so that a thermal deformation pattern produced is a relatively simple pattern, there is provided a reflector device in which correction of thermal deformation can be made by a few actuators. In such a reflector device a correcting force is automatically calculated from a difference between a temperature of a reflector (3) and a reference temperature to drive an actuator (5) whereby an excellent image forming performance with respect to the change in temperature can be maintained. Therein, a surface deformation of a temperature (3) is developed into modes to automatically select modes so that a residual deformation is less a predesignated deformation amount, and after correction thereof, the deformation is corrected whereby the correction can be made efficiently with a small force.

Abstract: A method for calibrating a printer (10) to print data beginning at a specified distance from the reference edge (14a) of a document (14). Several test documents are moved through a printer and a test symbol (12a) is printed on each of them with a preselected set of heating elements (62) from a dot matrix thermal print member (56). The test documents (12a) are then processed through the same printer whereupon a sensor (64) detects the reference edge (14a) of the document (14) and the test symbol (12a). A master controller (66) then determines a test symbol distance between the reference edge and the midpoint of the test symbol for each test document. In order to calibrate the printer to account for the calibration distance so that the printer prints data beginning at substantially the specified distance from the reference edge of the document, the master controller (66) utilizes a stepping motor (22) to make coarse calibration adjustments by advancing the document in full and/or half steps. Fine calibration adjustments are made by selectively energizing heating elements (62) of the thermal print member (56).

Abstract: In a semiconductor pressure sensor (1), a dam (21) which prevents a sheathing resin (22) from flowing into a diaphragm portion during the molding of the sheathing resin is disposed on the outer periphery of piezoresistors and the diaphragm portion on the surface of a semiconductor pressure sensor chip. The volume of the base (4) and that of the semiconductor pressure sensor chip are adjusted so that a tensile force exerted upon the semiconductor pressure sensor chip by the base cancels a compressive force exerted upon the semiconductor pressure sensor by the sheathing resin (22) when the temperature of the semiconductor pressure sensor returns to an ordinary room temperature from a high temperature. As a result, strain is not caused in the semiconductor pressure sensor chip, and therefore measurements of pressure with a high degree of accuracy can be performed.

Abstract: Image data is hierarchically coded by a coder, and the coded data is stored in a database. A decoder hierarchically decodes the coded data stored in the database and the image data corresponding to each hierarchy is generated. The decoder generates the image data of a plurality of levels of resolutions from a low resolution to high resolution from the coded data stored in the database. The image data of the high resolution is original image data. The edit operation such as enlargement, reduction, transfer, and rotation by an operator is executed by using the image data of the low resolution obtained from the decoder. The content of the edit processing by the operator is stored in a memory. When the edit operation ends, CPU executes the edit processing to the original image data obtained from the decoder based on the content of the edit processing stored in the memory. The final editing is thus performed on the original image data.
