Abstract:
An information processing apparatus is connected to a sound output device for outputting sound based on digital audio data. The information processing apparatus includes the following elements. A first receiver receives setting data for setting a volume of sound output from the sound output device, the volume being set by a function implemented by a first computer executing a first program. A second receiver receives a setting signal for setting a volume of sound output from the sound output device, the volume being supplied from a setting unit provided for the sound output device. A calculator calculates first volume control data that controls the volume of sound output from the sound output device based on the setting data and the setting signal, the volume being controlled by a second computer executing a second program. A first output unit outputs the first volume control data to the sound output device.

A printed wiring board having a conductor circuit comprising a copper layer adjacent to an insulating layer and an electroless gold plating, wherein the insulating layer has ten-point mean surface roughness (Rz) of 2.0 μm or less is provided. According to the present invention, there is no such a defect that gold plating is deposited on a resin, and fine wiring formation with accuracy is realized.
Abstract:
A universal joint comprises a cavity formed in a joint case, a planar plate fitted in the cavity, a spherical member arranged in the cavity so that it is held by a spherical surface receiving seat and a portion of the planar plate, and pressure screw for pressing the planar plate toward the spherical surface receiving seat.
Abstract:
An agitator comprises a main body for supporting rotatably a rotary shaft, a chuck for connecting detachably an agitating rod with the rotary shaft, starting means for starting the rotation of the rotary shaft when the chuck is covered with a chuck cover, and locking means for locking rotary shaft when the chuck is not covered with the chuck cover. The chuck cover is removed from the main body when an external force larger than a predetermined value is applied to the chuck cover. The starting means comprises a permanent magnet provided on the outer periphery of a disk hub and a magnetic sensor provided on the main body so that an output is generated to start the driving source only when the chuck cover is moved to cover the chuck. The locking means comprises a hole formed in the rotary shaft, an eccentric cam to be rotated by the chuck cover, and a lock pin which is moved by the eccentric cam so as to be inserted into the hole of the rotary shaft when the chuck is not covered with the chuck cover. A universal joint comprises a cavity formed in a joint case, a planar plate fitted in the cavity, a spherical member arranged in the cavity so that it is held by a spherical surface receiving seat and a portion of the planar plate, and pressure means for pressing the planar plate toward the spherical surface receiving seat.
Abstract:
A timing-control circuit device, which uses a synchronous mirror delay circuit, for keeping the synchronization between clock signals in phase even at a load change. A reference clock signal (clkin 11) is entered to a timing-control circuit (SMDF 14) and used to generate an internal clock (dclk 12), then generates an external clock (clkout 13) through a buffer (BUF 15). The external clock signal is fed back to the timing-control circuit (SMDF 14) and used to generate an internal clock signal so as to synchronize the external clock signal in phase with the reference clock signal. The timing-control circuit is provided with a circuit (FDA 21, MCC 22) for detecting a phase difference between the internal clock signal and the external clock signal, as well as a delay circuit (DCL 24) for controlling a delay time, so that the delay circuit (DCL 24) can change the delay time according to the detected phase difference.
Abstract:
A magnetic head unit is provided in which the distance between a surface of the gimbal plate put touching the pressing member and a surface of the magnetic head facing the first or second disc-shaped recording medium is set to fall in a range of 0.3 to 0.8 mm and thus the coil winding concavity can be formed in the intermediate portion of the magnetic head in the direction of the head thickness and the magnetic heads can be kept stably in place in relation to the disc-shaped recording medium. Also, a recording and/or reproducing apparatus using the magnetic head unit is provided.
Abstract:
An inspection apparatus is disclosed which is adapted to accurately detect an irradiated position on a target board which is irradiated with a beam, to thereby inspect deformation of a pipe such as a sewer or the like. A laser beam emitting unit (3) is arranged on one end side of a sewer (1). The laser beam emitting unit (3) is so adjusted that a laser beam (15) is impinged on a target board (11) of a target vehicle (9) traveling from the other end side of the pipe toward the laser beam emitting unit (3). The target board (11) is provided thereon with a plurality of phototransistors (13), whereby the irradiated position is detected depending on electric signals generated by the phototransistors.
Abstract:
The sample stage is scanned in a grid pattern with a feed pitch finer than the width of the primary beams, and with X-ray intensities at each point as values, primary and secondary mapping data are prepared. In order to convert the shape and size of the primary beam into a size of each of the mapping data, a beam template is prepared in which portions irradiated with primary beam being"1" and portions not irradiated being "0". The background intensity is determined as a threshold value, and at the positions where the value of the primary mapping data is below the threshold value, beam template is overlaid on the secondary mapping data. Those values in the secondary mapping data corresponding to "1" portions of the beam template are replaced with "0", and this is performed over all the measured points, thereby data closely approximating the actual boundary of the element concerned is obtained on the secondary mapping data.
Abstract:
A sheet film feeder according to the present invention is incorporated in an X-ray photographing apparatus and feeds a sheet film from an unphotographed film housing magazine to a sheet film holder at a waiting position. A suction mechanism for sucking an unphotographed film is provided to the sheet film feeder. In addition, the feeder has a transportation apparatus for transporting the suction mechanism from the unphotographed film housing magazine to the sheet film holder, and a rotation apparatus for rotating the suction mechanism through approximately 90.degree. when the suction mechanism is transported from the unphotographed film housing magazine to the sheet film holder. Therefore, the suction mechanism is rotated approximately 90.degree. and transported from the magazine to the holder. For this reason, the unphotographed film is rotated from the vertical to horizontal state and fed to the holder without damage.
