Patent EP-0833212-A3 (EP)
Inventor: NACMAN ARON
IPC: H04N1/407
Filed: 1997-09-22
Abstract: A method and apparatus for reproducing high quality images using an electrophotographic
printing machine is disclosed. 
     More specifically, the present invention is used to change the location, shape and size of a
process control patch. Process control patches may be used to improve the quality of an image prior
to printing. The intensity of light reflected from the control patch is measured, and the measurements
are used to change parameters such as magnitude of electrostatic charge, and toner concentration,
before the latent image developed. Adjusting these parameters at this time will allow the printing
apparatus to reproduce images having superior quality than previously available.

Abstract: A magneto-optical recording medium including at
least a recording layer, and an auxiliary recording
layer which achieves magnetostatic coupling with the
recording layer. The auxiliary recording layer is in
an in-plane magnetization state at temperatures lower
than a recording temperature, and in a perpendicular
magnetization state at temperatures not lower than the
recording temperature. It is therefore possible to
achieve a decrease in a recording magnetic field.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine having a cylinder head body (14) with a
pentroof-shaped combustion chamber (100) comprises a piston (16) including a
piston cavity (20) and a circular protrusion (22) provided around the piston
cavity, a fuel injector (12) for injecting fuel downward to the piston cavity and
a spark plug (18) provided in proximity to an intake valve (1). Fuel is injected
in a shape of a hollow cone (F) and collides against the piston cavity and is
diffused. The diffused fuel is carried on the tumble flow of intake air and
gathers around the electrode (18a) of the spark plug, this contributing to
securing a stable stratified charge combustion. Further, the configuration of
the circular protrusion prevents the sprayed fuel from scattering towards the
cylinder wall.

superposed on a first base plate (2), a second recording layer (4) superposed on
a second base plate (2), and a spacer (5) of adhesive disposed between the first

points of respective focusing error signal S curves, each S curve corresponding to a
respective recording layer, until the same number of zero cross points as an ordinal
number of the desired recording layer is detected. The correct selection of the
recording layer (3,4) is confirmed by reading an identification section (ID a ,
ID b ) thereof which stores its recording layer address.

Abstract: A vehicle headlamp having a light shield (18) that does not outgas under
normal lamp operation is disclosed. The vehicle headlamp uses a light shield (18) with a

the light absorption, and the roughness breaks up visible light images in any small
amount of reflected light. The ceramic material does not outgas or deteriorate so as to
leave a film on the other lamp elements.
