Abstract:
A television receiving apparatus 100 includes a television receiver 20, and a smart antenna 10 having directivity capable of being electrically changed so as to match radio waves to be received. A handle 50 is provided with a mechanism holding the smart antenna 10 therein, fixed to the television receiver 20 and capable of changing the distance between the smart antenna 10 and the television receiver 20 as an antenna holding box. The antenna having directivity capable of being electrically changed so as to match with radio waves to be received is disposed so that the aesthetic appearance can be improved and the signal receiving sensitivity of the antenna can be enhanced.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a display device, comprising: a display with deviated directivity in an orientation angle offering good viewability, a casing that holds the display and is placed at a plurality of angles, a direction sensor detecting a direction of placement of the casing, a video processing circuit for outputting a video to the display, and a switching circuit for switching an angle of the video output from the video processing circuit based on the direction of the placement detected by the direction sensor.
Abstract:
A holding part 50 fixedly holds a shaft 17 included in a smart antenna 10 on a television receiver 20. The smart antenna 10 is held fixedly by the holding part 50. The shaft 17 of the smart antenna 10 is provided with an opening 17a in a part thereof distant from a part thereof held by the holding part 50. A wiring 15a is extended outside from the shaft 17 through the opening 17a and is connected to the television receiver 20.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an antenna system, including: an antenna which can switch directivity thereof when receiving an analog television broadcasting signal; a switching section to switch the directivity of the antenna; a measurement section to measure radio wave quality of the analog television broadcasting signal received by the antenna by analyzing the analog television broadcasting signal when the directivity of the antenna is switched by the switching section; a storage section to store data of radio wave quality in different directions measured by the measurement section for each channel; and a control section to control the switching section to switch the directivity of the antenna to one direction having a highest radio wave quality among the different directions corresponding to a desired channel when the desired channel is designated.
Abstract:
A cold accumulation type refrigerating machine having a high refrigeration efficiency. Rotation output of a stepping motor is converted to a reciprocative motion of a displacement member carrying a cold accumulator and disposed within a cylinder in which first and second closed chambers are defined above and below the displacement member, respectively. A compressed gas discharged from a compressor is introduced into the second closed chamber through the cold accumulator upon opening of a suction valve and undergoes expansion within the second closed chamber, the gas being then fed back to the compressor through the cold accumulator upon opening of an discharge valve, whereupon one cycle of refrigerating operation is completed. Rotation speed of the stepping motor is varied during every one cycle of operation by means of a pulse oscillation controller such that a time taken for the displacement member to reach a top dead center position from a time point at which the discharge valve is opened is increased while the remaining period of the one cycle is correspondingly shortened.
Abstract:
The present invention pertains to an information recording medium for recording audio information, visual information, data information and so on and also to information recording and reproducing methods for recording and reproducing information on and from the information recording medium for the purpose of improving the recording density. In the present invention, information can be recorded in high density by recording, on the information recording medium comprising a base (1) and an information recording layer (10) formed on the base (1) and made of high temperature superconductive material, information in the form of a fine pattern of high temperature superconductive regions (12) and normal electroconductive regions (11). The recording of the information is carried out by radiating an oxygen ion beam to the information recording layer and controlling the amount of oxygen, contained in the high temperature superconductive material, to a predetermined value. The reproduction is carried out by, for example, creating a difference in amount of magnetic fluxes in a pick-up coil depending on the presence or absence of the superconductive region in the information recording layer.
