Abstract: An image recognition apparatus recognizes an input locus as a command, a figure and a character, respectively in gesture recognition mode, figure recognition mode and character recognition mode. Regarding each recognized result, similarity between the input image and the recognized shape is obtained. The similarities are compared with each other, and if the difference between the similarities is less than a predetermined value, the recognized results are displayed for selection by an operator. Then, selected one of the displayed shapes is determined as the final recognition result. This enables correct locus input even if there is a possibility that the locus is recognized, in different recognition modes, as similar shapes of different functions.

Patent EP-0800184-A2 (EP)
IPC: H01H47/32
Filed: 1993-01-14
Abstract: This invention relates to a load driving circuit having a fail-safe breaking mechanism for breaking a primary power source when a failure occurs. This invention also relates to a load driving circuit capable of saving electricity in driving an inductive load and reducing a delay in stopping the load. 
     The breaking mechanism for breaking the primary power source has no contact. The load driving circuit includes a power supply circuit involving a semiconductor switching element that turns ON and OFF the supply of power to the load. There is arranged a detector for detecting a failure in the semiconductor switching element. When detecting a failure, the detector provides an output signal to activate the breaking mechanism. 
     To drive the inductive load, the power supply circuit may have two power supply sources. In response to a load driving instruction signal, the two power supply sources together apply a high voltage to the load. After a predetermined period, one of the power supply sources is stopped, and during a steady-state operation of the load, the remaining power source applies a low voltage to the load. The load driving instruction signal may be used to provide a pulse width modulated output, which is used to supply power to the load through a transformer. During a steady-state operation of the load, this arrangement supplies a voltage lower than an operation start voltage to the load, to thereby reduce power consumption and a delay in stopping the load.

Abstract: According to the present invention, when an air-conditioning
clutch (27) of a compressor is set on, even if an
improvement of a heating capacity by a viscous heater (4) is
required, a viscous clutch (7) is turned off not to transmit a
rotational driving force of an engine (E) to a rotor (53) of
the viscous heater, and further the rotational driving force of
the engine is transmitted to the compressor. In this way, a
torque applied to the engine E and a V-belt (6) can be reduced,
so that a fuel consumption ratio of the engine lowers and a
fuel economical performance improves. Further, because an
operation of the compressor is intermitted, it is possible to
remove a fog of a front windshield, so that a safety of the
vehicle travelling can be prevented from being deteriorated.
