Abstract: A copy machine comprises a fluorescent lamp
inverter circuit for supplying a voltage necessary to
light on a fluorescent lamp for exposing an original,
an inverter control circuit for outputting an inverter
drive signal of a first frequency to control the
fluorescent lamp inverter circuit, a light modulation
control circuit for outputting a light modulation drive
signal of a second frequency to control a current
flowing in the fluorescent lamp, and a synchronization
means for synchronizing the inverter drive signal and
the light modulation drive signal with each other by
using a clock division circuit and a phase-locked loop
(PLL) circuit. Thus, unevenness in exposing of the
original is eliminated, thereby improving image
quality.

Abstract: A drive preserves a default input password. When
there is no password input from the user, the default
input password is regarded as a user input password and
is compared and collated with a password for access
protection, thereby controlling the access protection.
In this instance, if the default input password and the
password for access protection have the same value, a
collation coincidence is obtained. The drive permits
the access without needing a password input of the
user.

Abstract: Single crystal silicon is a conventionally used substrate material for multi-chip
modules, especially for high frequency use. We have found that substitution of
polycrystalline silicon of resistivity greater than 2000 ohm · cm for the conventional
single crystal silicon can result in significant performance improvement as well as in cost
reduction. For instance, such substitution can result in significant improvement of the
quality factor of an inductor disposed on the substrate, or in transmission lines of lower
loss.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un détecteur à indice de réfraction interférométrique, dont la plage de fonctionnement est presque illimitée comparativement à un réfractomètre interférométrique classique dit de polarisation, dont la plage dynamique est limitée à une plage relativement étroite d'indices de réfraction. La mesure de la différence d'indice de réfraction entre un échantillon et une cellule de référence est effectuée par mesure de l'angle selon lequel le plan de polarisation d'un faisceau combiné a pivoté. Dans le dispositif classique, l'angle est limité à environ π radians, ce qui correspond à un décalage d'une demi-longueur d'ondes entre les composants de référence et d'échantillon dudit faisceau associé. Le dispositif à plage étendue permet de suivre et de mesurer, de manière précise, cet angle sur plusieurs rotations. Le suivi de la rotation est effectué par l'un des trois modes de réalisation, le mode de réalisation préféré impliquant l'utilisation d'un retardateur à cristaux liquides. Selon les trois modes de réalisation, il est possible de mesurer le sinus et le cosinus de l'angle de rotation et, de ce fait, il est possible de calculer une tangente inverse à quatre quadrants de façon à réaliser directement l'angle de rotation.

The POS data can be obtained using input text data defining the text, such as by POS tagging. The POS data can be used to obtain group data indicating groups of tokens of the text, such as verb groups and noun groups. The group data can also indicate, within each group, any tokens that meet a POS based removal criterion. The group data can be used to obtain summarized text data by removing tokens that meet the removal criterion. The original text may be obtained via scanner or video camera from a user's document, and may be recognized to obtain input text data. The summarized text may output as text or as audio pronunciation using a speech synthesizer.

Abstract: The drive system for a sewing machine, and especially an industrial sewing machine where each needle shaft (1) has a direct electromagnetic drive, has a number of magnets (2) fitted to the needle shaft (1). The successive magnets have an opposing magnetism. A number of coils (9) are separated from the magnets by air gaps, with the pole gaps matching the magnet (2) intervals. In the drive system for a sewing machine the energizing of the coils (9) is controlled to give the needle shaft (1) a reciprocating up and down movement according to the required speed and acceleration profile. The durations of the needle shaft movements match the movements of the looper, with an angular synchronization where the thread is caught. The energizing of the coils (9) is controlled to give the needle shaft (1) an increased kinetic energy on piercing and penetrating the fabric work piece. The lower shaft is driven by an induction motor. At the direction change points of the needle shaft movements, the braking energy is stored in an intermediate circuit, and especially an intermediate condenser, to be converted into kinetic energy on the new movement direction. The needle shaft (1) is at least partially supported by a magnet mounting. The upper magnet mounting is formed by a linear drive (15) with a mechanical holding brake which grips the needle shaft (1) when the power supply is disconnected, and releases it when the power is restored. The linear motor is divided into an upper and lower section.
