According to the present invention, an optical output automatic control circuit includes an optical output cutoff control circuit outside its feedback loop, and sets an optical output setting voltage at the ground level to prevent overshoot of the optical output while an optical output cutoff signal is being input.

Shock-absorbing material made from a mixture of solid particles and viscous elastic material is arranged at the periphery of an information storage and retrieval device. When an external shock is applied to the device, the shock-absorbing material is greatly deformed and dissipates the shock energy by inner friction sufficiently to prevent damage to the inner mechanism of the device. The deformed shock-absorbing material can be restored to the original shape so that it is repeatedly usable. Furthermore, by comparing the deformed shape and the quick reference table provided with the device, the amount shock acceleration can be roughly determined. The device conforms to one of a series of dimensional standards for information storage and retrieval devices.

A solid state relay composed of a series connected pair of LDMOSFETs has a minimized output capacitance. Each LDMOSFET is configured to have a silicon layer of a first conductive type, a drain region of the first conductive type diffused in the top surface of the silicon layer, a well region of a second conductive type diffused in the silicon layer in a laterally spaced relation from the drain region, and a source region of the first conductive type diffused within the well region to define a channel extending between the source region and a confronting edge of the well region along the top surface of the silicon layer. Each LDMOSFET is of an SOI (Silicon-On-Insulator) structure composed of a silicon substrate placed on a supporting plate, a buried oxide layer on the silicon substrate, and the silicon layer on the buried oxide layer. The well region is diffused over the full depth of the silicon layer to have its bottom in contact with the buried oxide layer, so that the well region forms with the silicon layer a P-N interface only at a small area adjacent the channel. Because of this reduced P-N interface and also because of the buried oxide layer exhibiting a much lower inductive capacitance than the silicon layer, it is possible to greatly reduce a drain-source capacitance for minimizing the output capacitance of the relay in the non-conductive condition.

A battery charger which can safely charge a lithium ion battery. Battery charger having a power source which supplies electric power, a charging control circuit for charging a battery by controlling the current and voltage based on supplied electric power, a charging current detection circuit for detecting a current value for charging the battery, a charging voltage detection circuit for detecting a voltage value for charging the battery, and a controller for holding a first voltage value which is a fixed voltage value for constant voltage charging, a second voltage value smaller than the first voltage value, a first current value which is a fixed current value for constant current charging, and a second current value smaller than the first current value. The battery charger controls the charging control circuit so as to perform I) constant current charging at the first current value until the voltage value detected by the charging voltage detection circuit reaches the second voltage value, ii) constant voltage charging at the second voltage value when the voltage value detected by the charging voltage detection circuit reaches the second voltage value, iii) constant current charging at the first current value again when the current value detected by the charging current detection circuit drops to the second current value, and iv) constant voltage charging at the first voltage value when the voltage value detected by the charging voltage detection circuit reaches the first voltage value, thereby charging the lithium ion battery.

A multi-purpose adjustable doorjamb assembly includes at least three elongate members: a first side member, a second side member, and a cross member. Each elongate member has an inside longitudinal face opposite an outside longitudinal face. Each face has a longitudinal notch defined therein. The side members are attached to either ends of the cross member to form an open-sided rectangle. The assembly may also include at least three door stops. The jamb assembly may be used to accommodate swinging doors, bi-fold doors, or sliding doors. Finally, each elongate member may include a front longitudinal edge and a back longitudinal edge. Each edge has a longitudinal trim notch. The assembly further includes L-shaped trim members each having a mating leg for adjustably mating with the trim notch and a decorative leg. By using a trim member on both sides of an elongate member both narrow and wide walls can be accommodated.

A method for producing a porous body with high porosity is provided.An adhesive is coated on a synthetic resin foam having three-dimensional network structure, such as urethane foam, serving as a base material, to impart stickiness to the surface of the resin foam, and thereafter a powder such as copper oxide powder is applied thereto, followed by heating to remove the substrate and sinter the powder. Thus, a porous body to which the pattern of the base material has been transferred is produced.The powder may be appropriately selected to obtain porous bodies having a great strength, without limitations on materials.

An N-type source (or drain) region is formed in the surface area of a P-type silicon substrate. A first insulation film is formed on the silicon substrate and a gate electrode is formed on the first insulation film. A second insulation film is formed on the first insulation film and gate electrode. A through hole is formed in those portions of the second insulation film, gate electrode and first insulation film which lie on the source region. A gate oxide film is formed on the side wall of the through hole. A P-type silicon layer serving as a channel region is formed on that portion of the source region which lies inside the through hole by the selective epitaxial growth. An N-type drain (or source) region is formed in the upper portion of the silicon layer. A third insulation film is formed on the resultant structure. A first contact hole is formed in portions of the third, second and first insulation films which lie on the source region, a second contact hole is formed in portions of the third and second insulation films which lie on the gate electrode, and a third contact hole is formed in a portion of the third insulation film which lies on the drain region by use of the RIE method. Wiring layers are formed inside the first to third contact holes and on part of the third insulation film.
摘要:
A battery charging system which charges a battery in an electric appliance. The battery charging system includes circuitry to supply a charging current from a power supply circuit to the battery which is connected to a load appliance. Also included is a voltage detecting circuit which detects the battery terminal voltage to determine the completion of charging. When the load appliance is operated causing a change in the consumption of electric current, the control circuit suspends operation of the voltage detection circuit. As a result, the change of terminal voltage caused by the change of current consumption is not detected, and erroneous "full-charge" detection is prevented.

An automatic document feeder for an image processing machine. The document feeder includes a main frame to be pivotally mounted on the image processing machine, a paper feeding unit, a paper discharging unit, and a conveyer belt for conveying papers from the paper feeding unit, across the image processing machine for image processing, to the paper discharging unit for discharge. A document discharging tray is positioned above the conveyer belt for receipt and stacking of papers discharged from a discharge port of the paper discharging unit. In the direction of document discharge, the document discharging tray has an ascending inclination, followed by a descending inclination. The ascending inclination and the descending inclination define a vertex spaced from the discharge port in the document discharging direction by more than one-half the length of the maximum-length document to be processed by the image processing machine.

The conveying unit and either one of the paper feeding unit and the paper discharging unit are provided with a plurality of contact pieces that come in contact with the platen glass and with the housing at the closed position of the support frame or the ADF. The load of either the paper feeding unit or the paper discharging unit is supported by said contact pieces at the closed position of the ADF.
