IPC: G11B9/00

Abstract: The present invention relates to computer storage systems
which have a tip (24) directed close or in contact to the
storage medium (10) by which bit-writing and bit-reading is
enforced. It is proposed to use a magnetizable storage medium
(10), expose it to an artificial, external magnetic field H
coupled externally to the storage medium, and -during bit
writing - to concurrently apply heat very locally in bit size
dimension in order to let the external magnetic field become
locally larger than the (temperature-dependent) coercive field
at the location (32) where heat is applied. Further, a
two-dimensional array of cantilever tips (24) is advantageously
used in an inventional storage system each of which tips serves
as a heat source when it is activated by a current flowing
through a resistive path within said tip (24) and producing the
necessary temperature at the small storage medium location (32)
where the bit writing is intended in order to approach the Curie
temperature or the compensation temperature of the magnetic
material.

Abstract: An air bag body (1) is expanded by charging an air therein after being expanded
in a flat surface shape. Next, by gently gripping the air bag body (1) by upper and
lower blades (26, 25) radially arranged in a radial direction of the air bag body (1), a
height in a radial direction of the air bag body (1) is linearly restricted along the upper
and lower blades (26, 25). Next, a plurality of movable blocks (24) are forward moved
toward a center of the air bag body (1), and upper and lower panels (12, 11) of the air
bag body (1) are accumulated. At this time, the upper and lower panels (12, 11) of the
air bag body (1) are folded in a state of being apart from each other so as to form a wave
shape. Next, the air bag body (1) is rotated, a portion left in a tab shape is wound
around a periphery, and a center protruding portion of the air bag body (1) is pressed
from an upper side, whereby a front surface deploying portion (35) is formed. When
supplying gas to the folded air bag body (1), the front surface deploying portion (35)
rapidly deploys so as to break a cover (5) and the gas is smoothly supplied to a
peripheral edge portion (14), whereby it is possible to smoothly and rapidly deploy the
air bag body (1).

Abstract: The invention provides an antenna disposition structure
suitable for a motorcycle. 
     An antenna 27 is disposed in a front
cover 21 in such a manner as to be disposed over a
headlamp 26 and forwardly from a virtual slant line 44
connecting the center 42 of a handlebar 17 to an axle 43
of a front wheel. 
     A driver, who functions as a radio wave
absorbing body, acts to weaken radio waves. However,
since the antenna is disposed forwardly from the slant
line, it is possible to prevent the effect of absorption
of radio waves by a driver and to prevent reductions in
electromagnetic fields in the vertical and horizontal
directions.

Abstract: A feed gas stream containing hydrogen sulphide is subjected in a furnace 6 to
reactions in which part of the hydrogen sulphide is burned to form sulphur dioxide,
and is which the sulphur dioxide reacts with residual hydrogen sulphide to form
sulphur vapour. The sulphur vapour is condensed from the gas stream exiting the
furnace 6 in a sulphur condenser 16. Residual sulphur dioxide is reduced back to
hydrogen sulphide by hydrogen in a reactor 22. Water vapour is removed from the
reduced gas in a quench tower 28 to form a water vapour-depleted gas stream. One
part of the water vapour-depleted gas stream is sent to an adsorber vessel 30 in
which hydrogen sulphide is absorbed in an absorbent. The resulting hydrogen
sulphide ― depleted gas stream is vented from the vessel 30 as a purge stream.
Another part of the water vapour ― depleted gas stream and a hydrogen sulphide ― rich gas formed by desorbing hydrogen sulphide from the absorbent in a vessel 38
are returned as recycle streams to the furnace 6.

stops looking at the apparatus (14), continuing voice control can only be effected whilst the
user continues speaking without breaks longer than a predetermined duration. Detection of
whether the user is looking at the apparatus can be effected in a number of ways including
by the use of camera systems (20,24), by a head-mounted directional transmitter, and by
detecting the location and direction of facing of the user.
