Inventor: CHIN YUAN-CHENG
IPC: G06F3/03
Filed: 2002-05-06
Abstract: A wireless optic mouse includes a casing (2) inside which an optic
module (3), a wireless communication unit (4) and a built-in power
source (5) are arranged. The power source (5) powers the optic module
(3) and the wireless communication unit (4). The optic module includes
an infrared light emitting diode (31) capable to emit an infrared signal
of wavelength between 800-1,000nm and a sensor (32) for receiving the
infrared signal that is reflected by a desk surface. The sensor (32)
generates a signal in response to the infrared optic signal received and
applies the signal to the wireless communication unit that transmits
the signal to a host computer in a wireless manner. The operation of the
optic module is based on the infrared light that requires low power
consumption but provides a high precision. Thus the service life of the
power source is extended. The wireless communication between the mouse
and the host computer realizes excellent mobility of the mouse.

Abstract: The present invention provides an ink-jet printing
head, and an ink-jet printing apparatus and method which
enable high-gradation and high-quality images to be
printed using dots of different sizes. In an ink-jet
printing head according to the present invention, at least
one second nozzle (22, 22A, 22B, 22C) has its center
arranged on an imaginary line (L0) extending in a
main-scanning direction of the printing head (10) through
the center of a first nozzle (21). The volume of an ink
droplet ejected through the second nozzle (22, 22A, 22B,
22C) is smaller than that of an ink droplet ejected through
the first nozzle (21). Further, the number of second
nozzles (22, 22A, 22B, 22C) is larger than that of first
nozzles (21).

Abstract: A data reproduction apparatus comprises a data request unit
for requesting a server to transmit data; a reception buffer for
holding received data; a control unit for detecting the beginning
position of AV data, and instructing a decoding unit to start
decoding of the AV data when the amount of data stored in the
reception buffer has reached a set value after detection of the
beginning position position; a decoding unit for decoding the AV
data stored in the reception buffer; a clock circuit for
outputting a clock signal; and a display unit for displaying the
decoded data. Since the AV data of the size required for data
reproduction can be reliably pre-buffered when receiving the data,
stable data reproduction can be carried out.

Abstract: In a procedure for continuously decorating packages (5) with curved surfaces, each package has a self-rotation superimposed on the transport path(4). The decoration is on a carrier path (7) moving with constant speed tangential to the transport path. The decoration is applied to the packages under pressure and with heat applied to the carrier path, the packages being subject to subsequent heat treatment from a stationary controlled source. <??>The transport and carrier path directions are opposed. The package spacing has the same ratio to the transport speed as the decoration spacing has to the carrier speed. The packages are accelerated in their self-rotation to match the carrier speed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for increasing the capacity of a
multiple-input and/or multiple-output system. Each sub-stream
(125-1, 125-2, 125-3, and 125-4) of a primary data
stream (115) is stratified to produce a processed sub-stream
(635-1, 635-1, 635-3, and 635-4) whose strata (632-11, 632-12,
632-13, 632-14, 632-21, 632-22, 632-23, 632-24, 632-31, 632-32,
632-33, and 632-34, 632-41, 632-42, 632-43, and 632-44)
can be separated out and decoded with an acceptable error rate.
A sub-stream (125-1, 125-2, 125-3, and 125-4) can be stratified
by dividing it into a plurality of sub-stream-components (625-11,
625-12, 625-13, 625-14, 625-21, 625-22, 625-23, 625-24, 625-31,
625-32, 625-33, 625-34, 625-41, 625-42, 625-43, and 625-44)
that are processed to obtain strata (632-11, 632-12, 632-13,
632-14, 632-21, 632-22, 632-23, 632-24, 632-31, 632-32, 632-33,
and 632-34, 632-41, 632-42, 632-43, and 632-44), with each
stratum (632-11, 632-12, 632-13, 632-14, 632-21, 632-22, 632-23,
632-24, 632-31, 632-32, 632-33, and 632-34, 632-41, 632-42,
632-43, and 632-44) representing one of the sub-stream-components
(625-11, 625-12, 625-13, 625-14, 625-21, 625-22,
625-23, 625-24, 625-31, 625-32, 625-33, 625-34, 625-41, 625-42,
625-43, and 625-44). The strata (632-11, 632-12, 632-13,
632-14, 632-21, 632-22, 632-23, 632-24, 632-31, 632-32, 632-33,
and 632-34, 632-41, 632-42, 632-43, and 632-44) are then
combined to obtain the processed sub-stream (635-1, 635-1, 
635-3, and 635-4). Stratifying allows a particular processed
sub-stream's strata (632-11, 632-12, 632-13, 632-14, 632-21,
632-22, 632-23, 632-24, 632-31, 632-32, 632-33, and 632-34,
632-41, 632-42, 632-43, and 632-44) to have different transmit
features from each other, such as different bit rates, or different
power levels, or both. This reduces the interference for some of
the strata (632-11, 632-12, 632-13, 632-14, 632-21, 632-22,
632-23, 632-24, 632-31, 632-32, 632-33, and 632-34, 632-41,
632-42, 632-43, and 632-44) of each processed sub-stream
since as stratum are separated out and decoded they are no
longer interference for the other strata. Thus, allowing for a
higher overall bit rate for the processed sub-streams (635-1,
635-1, 635-3, and 635-4).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for winding multi-pole cores
30 formed by a stack of ferromagnetic sheets with a
plurality of radial poles 32. A shroud 2 is arranged at a
pole extension 32, and an outer shield 20 having an
aperture 21 located at the pole extension is also arranged
that can be crossed by said shroud 2. When the shroud 2 and
the shield 20 are combined, the boundary of the aperture
and the external edges of the shroud define a frame-shaped
slot within which the wire 3 is forced at winding. Since
the wire is guided by the combined action of the shroud 2
and the shield 20 within the frame-shaped slot, there is no
discontinuity along the winding trajectory. The shroud 2
can be movable radially through said aperture 21 with
alternated movement towards/away from the core 30, for
overlapping to the respective pole 32 and carrying out the
winding step by the flier 1. This way there is an optimal
filling of the core even at high winding speed, increasing
productivity of the winding process.

Abstract: A felting procedure, in which a fibre structure (10) is advanced under a reciprocating felting head (24) with needles (28), has the instantaneous speed of advance decreasing in response to the penetration of the needles into the structure and increasing after the needles withdraw, so that the force applied to the needles by the structure is limited without completely interrupting the advance during the whole duration of the needles' presence in the structure. A felting procedure, in which a fibre structure (10) is advanced under a reciprocating felting head (24) with needles (28), has the instantaneous speed of advance decreasing in response to the penetration of the needles into the structure and increasing after the needles withdraw, so that the force applied to the needles by the structure is limited without completely interrupting the advance during the whole duration of the needles' presence in the structure. The advance of the fibre structure can be produced by a constant-speed motor and a transmission system with a belt, tensioner roller and a variable-pressure pneumatic damper. It has mechanical clearance able to absorb the decrease in the speed of advance created by a resistance exercised by the penetrating felting needles. The decrease in the speed of advance with the needles' penetration is compensated for by an acceleration after they have withdrawn.

Abstract: A document is printed with graphical symbols which encode information but are not human readable; the graphical symbols are formed into some or all of visible element printed on the document. The outline of this element is used for synchronising an automated process for scanning the document to extract the encoded information from the element. In prior art systems, synchronising an automated process for scanning the document to extract the encoded information from the element requires large scale arrangement of the graphical symbols (e.g. a horizontal line of glyphs which are all forward facing and which intersect a vertical line of glyphs which are all rearward facing). This considerably mars the appearance of a printed document. This negative impact on appearance has been one of the major causes inhibiting the uptake of graphical symbol technology for encoding information.
