rearward end. A front ESD shield is disposed about the
exterior of at least a substantial portion of the forward
mating end of the dielectric housing. A rear EMI shield
is disposed about the exterior of at least a substantial
portion of the rearward end of the dielectric housing.
The front ESD shield is electrically isolated from the
rear EMI shield by an outwardly projecting portion of the
dielectric housing physically separating the shields.
The shielded electrical connector is adapted for mating
with a complementary mating connector which includes a
peripheral metal shield. A latch arm is folded back from
a forward end of the peripheral metal shield of the
mating connector for engaging a latch member inside the
forward mating end of the dielectric housing of the
shielded electrical connector.

Abstract: A fixing unit is used for fixing an toner image on a
recording medium onto the recording medium. The fixing unit
includes a heater which generates heat when supplied with an
electric current. A control circuit selectively output a
signal so as to turning ON and OFF a transistor. When the
transistor is ON, the electric current is supplied to the
heater. The signal output from the control circuit includes
a pulse portion having pulses and a continues portion having
no pulse. When the pulse portion is output, the electric
current to the heater is intermittently disrupted. Because,
a rush current generated in the electric current is also
intermittently disrupted accordingly, flicker in lightning
which is sharing a power source with the fixing unit can be
prevented.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système de bibliothèque à chargeur de données à coût réduit, que l'on obtient en réduisant le nombre de certains composants particulièrement coûteux, nécessaires à l'exécution de certaines fonctions de la bibliothèque. Pour certaines fonctions, on obtient des composants à coût réduit en utilisant des composants de faible précision en association avec des composants qui compensent la faible précision tout en fournissant un composant à coût réduit par rapport à une fonction donnée. Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, on obtient un dispositif de saisie de chargeur de données qui (1) utilise un seul dispositif électromécanique pour les fonctions de saisie d'un chargeur, de retrait d'un chargeur saisi à partir d'un emplacement d'une unité de disque/stockage, d'introduction d'un chargeur saisi dans un emplacement unité de disque/stockage, et de dégagement d'un chargeur saisi une fois qu'il est placé dans un emplacement désiré. Ledit chargeur (2) peut également compenser des variations de positionnement du chargeur; (3) est doté d'un mécanisme de préhension qui se déplace de manière sinusoïdale; et (4) empêche l'usure associée au mouvement du mécanisme de préhension en position de retrait complet, qui ne porte pas de chargeur, vers une position dans laquelle on peut retirer un chargeur. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, un mécanisme élévateur permet de déplacer le dispositif de saisie de chargeur dans lequel la partie guidage est également intégrée à la partie du mécanisme qui déplace ledit dispositif de saisie du chargeur. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, on utilise une extension de plaque frontale qui facilite l'insertion d'un chargeur dans une unité de disque à l'aide d'un dispositif de transport de chargeur faible précision. Selon un autre, mode de réalisation on utilise un support de chargeur de données amovible qui (1) comprend une structure en forme de boîte pouvant contenir des chargeurs et un couvercle anti-poussière pouvant être placé sur l'ouverture de la structure en forme de boîte lorsque le support n'est pas en fonctionnement et lorsque le support est en fonctionnement, attaché à la partie en forme de boîte; (2) une structure d'orientation qui empêche l'insertion d'un chargeur de données dans le support en forme de boîte si le chargeur est improprement orienté; et (3) des organes de serrage pour empêcher le déplacement accidentel d'un chargeur de données situé dans la structure en forme de boîte .

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à une huile fluide non digestible possédant, dans une plage de températures comprise entre 20 °C et 40 °C, une consistance inférieure à environ 600 P.sec(n-1), de préférence inférieure à 400 P.sec(n-1). Cette huile fluide non digestible contient un polyester de polyol liquide doté d'un point de fusion totale inférieur à 37 °C, et un polyester de polyol solide doté d'un point de fusion totale supérieur ou égal à 37 °C environ. Le polyester de polyol solide peut être un polyester de polyol saturé solide, un polyester de polyol diversement estérifié, solide, un polymère polyester de polyol ou une combinaison de ces derniers, qui sont cristallisés, ou co-cristallisés, en particules cristallines non agglomérées, dotées généralement d'une dimension maximale inférieure à 10 microns. Le procédé de fabrication de cette huile fluide non digestible consiste à faire fondre totalement l'huile non digestible, à faire cristalliser le polyester de polyol solide tout en appliquant une force de cisaillement de façon à éviter la formation de groupes d'agrégats cristallisés qui peuvent nuire à la fluidité de la composition huileuse. Un équipement préféré de cristallisation du polyester de polyol solide, utilisé pour la fabrication de la composition fluide, est un échangeur thermique à parois raclées.

Abstract: A powder compaction method in which a powder p is
filled by air tapping or other suitable method into a mold
1, then while the mold 1 being filled with the powder, the
powder particles are bound with each other without
application of force from outside the mold to form a
compact C, and then the compact C is taken out from the
mold 1. This method produces a variety of shapes of the
compact far greater than in conventional methods, and net
shape manufacturing of products with complex shapes is made
possible by this method. Because this method uses far less
binder compared to MIM and PIM that are expected as methods
for producing products with complicated shapes, the time
needed for elimination of the binder is much shorter than
in MIM and PIM.

Abstract: In the direct current circuit interruption arrangements disclosed in the
specification, a solid state circuit interrupter interrupts the connection in a circuit path
between a power source and a load. The stored energy in the circuit is dissipated in a
resistive commutation circuit by using controllable power semiconductors such as
Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors to increase resistance between the terminals of the
circuit interruption arrangement. An in-line power semiconductor switch acts as the
circuit disconnecting device and is shunted by a resistive commutation circuit consisting
of a plurality of solid state commutation switches and resistors in various configurations
which act to dissipate the energy. In one embodiment the solid state switches in the
commutation circuit are connected to a common circuit interrupter terminal and to a
resistor through a series of taps on the resistor and the resistor is connected to the other
circuit interrupter terminal. In another embodiment, the commutation circuit consists of
parallel branches each having a solid state switch in series with a resistor and each branch
is shunted across the circuit interrupter. In a further embodiment, the circuit path
between the power source and the load consists of a plurality of parallel cables and each
cable has an in-line solid state switch with a shunted resistive commutation circuit. In
each of the embodiments the in-line solid state switches are opened and the solid state
commutation switches are closed simultaneously, introducing resistance into the circuit
path. The commutation switches are then sequentially opened to further increase the
circuit resistance and complete the circuit interruption without causing electric potentials
to exceed the device ratings for the circuit interrupter.
