Patent EP-1161131-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KAWAI TAKAYOSHI
IPC: B25J9/10
Filed: 2001-06-01
Abstract: A method of mounting an electric component (94; 714) on a
circuit substrate (350; 704), including the steps of moving one of
a suction nozzle (90; 700; 866) and an electric-component
supplying device (122; 710, 712) toward the other of the nozzle
and the supplying device, so that the nozzle applies a suction to
the component supplied by the supplying device and thereby
receives the component, moving one of the nozzle and the
substrate toward the other of the nozzle and the substrate, so
that the nozzle mounts the component on the substrate, taking
an image of at least a portion of the component held by the nozzle,
as seen in a direction perpendicular to an axial direction of the
nozzle, in a state in which the nozzle takes a known position in
the axial direction, determining, based on image data
representing the taken image, a position of a mounted surface
(98) of the component that is opposite to a sucked surface (92) of
the component sucked by the nozzle, and controlling, based on
the determined position, a movement of the nozzle toward one or
each of the supplying device and the substrate, or vice versa.

Abstract: This invention pertains to a method of counteracting a malodor in a
solid or liquid, soap or detergent caused by a compound selected from the group
consisting of lower carboxylic acids, thiols, thiophenols, phenols, lower amines,
phosphines, arsines, lower alcohols, and lower ketones. The method comprises
introducing into the solid or liquid, soap or detergent an effective malodor
counteracting amount of a malodor counteracting compound selected from the
group consisting of 1-cyclohexyl-ethyl-butyrate, 1-cyclohexyl-ethyl-acetate, 1-cyclohexyl-ethanol,
4-isopropyl-cyclohexyl-propionate, and phenoxyacetic acid 2-hydroxy-ethyl
ester. The perceived total odor intensity in the solid or liquid, soap
or detergent is reduced and the perceived malodor intensity in the solid or liquid,
soap or detergent is substantially eliminated. The malodor counteractant
compositions may be used in a wide variety of solid or liquid, soaps or detergents.

Abstract: A solid-stranding method and apparatus for forming optical cables.
Solid-stranding combines buffering and stranding operations, as well as
performs the stranding operation while the flextubes (13 1 -13 n ) are still hot so
that they adhere together without additional binders. Optical fibers (12 1 -12 n )
and/or wires are supplied to an extruder (20) which forms flextubes around
individual ones or groups of the optical fibers and/or wires. A central element
(14) may be supplied to, and go through, the center of the extruder. A rotating
pulling device (30), such as a caterpillar, helically or in an SZ-manner solid-strands
the flextubes around the central element or solid-strands the
flextubes to themselves when no central element is present as the flextubes
cool down. That is, solid-stranding includes buffering and stranding
operations that are performed together without a water cooling stage
therebetween. Thus, the flextubes adhere together, and may adhere to the
central member, thereby forming a solid-stranded composite core. The solid-stranded
composite core then may be jacketed by passing through another
extruder, or may be used without a jacket, thereby forming a solid-stranded
flextube unit from which individual flextubes easily may be split.

Abstract: A method for enhancing vision of an eye includes a laser delivery system having a laser beam for ablating corneal material from the cornea of the eye. Measurements are made to determine an optical path difference between a plane wave and a wavefront emanating from the retina of the eye for a location at a surface of the cornea. An optical correction is provided to the laser delivery system for the location based on the optical path difference and refractive indices of media through which the wavefront passes. The optical correction includes dividing the optical path difference by a difference between an index of refraction of corneal material and an index of refraction of air. The laser beam is directed to the location on the surface of the cornea and corneal material ablated at the location in response to the optical correction to cause the wavefront to approximate the shape of the plane wave at that location.

Abstract: A manual knife sharpener (10) is provided with angle control
structure. The structure includes a guide member (20) having a guide
surface (18) which forms an angle with the abrasive surface (14) of the
sharpening member (12). When the blade (16) is inserted into the space
between the abrasive surface (14) and the guide surface (18) the blade
(16) presses against the guide surface (18) to displace the guide
surface (18) linearly in a direction perpendicular to the guide surface
(18) so that the movement is a lateral movement in the same plane
without any pivoting or twisting of the guide member (20). Thus, the
angle between the guide surface (18) and the abrasive surface (14)
remains constant regardless of the extent of displacement of the guide
member (20).

Abstract: A portable, interactive display device is disclosed. The device presents to a user
the graphical interface of a host computer. The host is separate from the display device
and sits in a fixed location. The invention allows a user to carry with him the user
interface capability of the host, limited only by the capabilities of a wireless
communications channel to the host. The host provides processing, storage, and access to
its own peripheral devices. The display device need only provide the amount of
processing necessary to communicate with the host, to run the client side of the hosting
software, and to provide security functions. The host provides a docking station that
accommodates the display device. When in the docking station, the display device
continues to operate but communicates with the host through the docking station rather
than through the wireless channel. This allows for a higher quality video connection.

phase applied to each one of the digital-to-analog converters
(120, 122, 124, 126) is delayed with respect to one another by
the oversampling period. An summer is coupled to each digital-to-analog
converter (120, 122, 124, 126) for summing each output
