Inventor: HARADA SHUHEI
IPC: B41J2/19
Filed: 2000-04-07
Abstract: A valve unit 36 is placed in an ink flow passage 35 between an ink
cartridge 8 and a recording head 7 and can be controlled in association with the
cleaning operation of the recording head 7. Under the control of a drive
controller, the valve unit 36 holds for a predetermined time a state in which
negative pressure produced by a suction pump is accumulated, and is opened
after the expiration of the predetermined time or is opened with the negative
pressure accumulated and driving the suction pump is continued. The air
bubbles remaining in a stuck state in the ink flow passage can be peeled from
the ink flow passage together with an instantaneous fast ink flow produced as
the valve unit 36 is opened, and the peeled air bubbles can be discharged
effectively from the ink flow passage following the subsequent ink flow.

Abstract: A process for the recovery of aroma components from coffee grounds.
Coffee grounds are placed in a mixer. The coffee grounds are wet, heated, and
exposed to decreased pressure to provide aroma containing gas containing aroma
components. From 40% to 95% of the aroma components in the coffee grounds
are collected from the aroma containing gas. The aroma components may be
added to concentrated coffee extract prior to the drying of the extract. The coffee
powder produced has much increased and improved aroma and flavour.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a magneto-optical
member (1) with which a great magneto-optical effect can be
obtained. A granular film (6) (granular magneto-optical thin
film) is provided between an (SiO 2 /Ta 2 O 5   )n  layer (4) and a
(Ta 2 O 5 /SiO 2 ) n  layer (5) to form a magneto-optical member (one-dimensional
photonic crystal) (1). The granular film (6) consists
of magnetic minute particles made of Co (7) and a matrix (8) which
is made of Sm 2 O 3  (a rare earth-oxide) and which surrounds the
magnetic minute particles. Co and Sm 2 O 3  are alternately
sputtered at a low temperature by utilizing two target
sputtering method to form the granular film (6). Thus, the
granular film (6) is formed at a low temperature, and hence the
disorder of the periodic structure of the (SiO 2 /Ta 2 O 5 ) n  layer
(4) and the (Ta 2 O 5 /SiO 2 ) n  layer (5) which may be caused during heat
treatment at a high temperature does not occur at all. As a
result, the magneto-optical member (1) is enabled to show an
intense localization of light for the light having a specific
wavelength, resulting in showing both a great magneto-optical
effect and a high transmissivity.

IPC: H03M13/35

Abstract: Unequal channel error protection is provided for a bit stream, e.g., a progressive
source coded bit stream, by puncturing of a channel code. The channel code has a specified
rate associated with a corresponding level of error protection, and is used to code a first
portion of the bit stream. The channel code is subsequently punctured for at least a second
portion of the bit stream so as to provide a rate higher than that of the designated rate.
Commencement of the puncturing is deliberately delayed by an amount determined based at
least in part on a memory of the channel code. Advantageously, the delay prevents
propagation of errors in a channel decoder used to decode the channel coded bit stream. The
progressive bit stream may be a progressive source coded video or audio bit stream, any other
type of progressive information bit stream, or a partitioned source coded bit stream.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système mémoire qui commande une mémoire devant être rafraîchie, telle qu'une DRAM, sans nécessiter une importante commande externe. Dans l'un des modes de réalisation, le système mémoire comprend un contrôleur mémoire et un bloc mémoire, couplés par un bus système. Le bloc mémoire comprend une matrice de cellules mémoire qui doit être périodiquement rafraîchie afin de pouvoir préserver la validité des données. Le bloc mémoire comprend également un circuit de rafraîchissement de mémoire, qui rafraîchit les cellules mémoire durant les cycles de repos de la matrice. Le contrôleur mémoire contrôle le nombre de cycles de repos sur le bus système durant un période de rafraîchissement prédéterminée. Si ledit nombre est inférieur au nombre de cycles de repos nécessaires prédéterminé, il impose le nombre de cycles de repos désiré sur le bus système. Le contrôleur mémoire assure ainsi qu'il y a toujours assez de cycles de repos durant lesquels la matrice de cellules mémoire peut être rafraîchie.

Abstract: A system for integrating components into a vehicle wherein the components comprise devices coupled to an in-car network. The network provides for easy re-configuration and upgrading of the vehicle, as well as improved communication of information between the vehicle's systems and integration of the vehicle network into external networks. The network may include one or more devices which are addressable using IP addresses or object terminology. The devices may include various servers and clients, such as microphones, cameras, GPS receivers, interfaces to on-board diagnostic systems, communication devices, displays, CD players, radios, speakers, security devices and LANs (local area networks). Devices may easily be connected or disconnected to upgrade or reconfigure the vehicle's systems, and software and services can easily be provided to the various devices through the network. The network can enable the interaction of various network devices to increase the capabilities or utility of devices which may otherwise be limited. The system therefore provides an easy and inexpensive means to improve or otherwise modify the functionality of the vehicle. In one embodiment, the in-vehicle network comprises an ethernet, although other embodiments can be implemented in any other type of network. Communication devices such as wireless modems and wireless ethernet allow communications with devices and networks external to the in-vehicle network so that data, software, services and other information can be downloaded from or uploaded to these external sources. The in-vehicle network can also be coupled to an external network through these communication devices so that it can function as a device (a sub-network) on the external network. Traditional vehicle components may be replaced by network devices, thereby providing extended functionality to the driver. For example, the vehicle's dashboard may be replaced by a monitor, which displays images of dashboard instruments, vehicle data and other information to the driver. Graphics generated by a server on the network may be designed to emulate digital or analog gauges which are normally found on a dashboard.

wall further includes a liquid which is added to the two dimensional honeycomb layer. The
liquid is jettisoned during the launch of the vehicle at a predetermined time when the
additional acoustic suppression provided by the mass of liquid is no longer needed. The
fairing may also include an energy absorbing blanket connected to the inner side of the
fairing to further suppress the energy generated by a launch vehicle.
