Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention provide a magnetic head and a magnetic disk drive using the same, which is capable of increasing efficiency in changing the flying height of an element portion by heat generation of a heater in the magnetic head using the heater as well as capable of suppressing the change of the flying height of the element portion at the time of recording. In a magnetic head according to one embodiment of the invention, when a portion is defined as a “heater immobility line”, in which a position of the positive pressure generation surface does not vary when the electricity is distributed to a heater, and a portion is defined as a “write immobility line”, in which a position of the positive pressure generation surface does not vary at the time of recording, the area of the raised region surrounded by the heater immobility line is smaller than the area of the raised region surrounded by the write immobility line.

A micromilling device includes a milling chamber, a sorter located in the milling chamber for sorting solid material, nozzles for injecting a stream of solid particles to be milled into the chamber in a predetermined path, and impact elements positioned in the path for impacting the stream of solid material.
Abstract:
In an ophthalmological measurement method and apparatus, a laser beam of predetermined diameter is projected to the eye fundus and movement of a speckle pattern formed by light scattered by blood cells in blood vessel is detected by a photosensor as fluctuation in speckle light intensity to produce a speckle signal. The speckle light intensity will fluctuate more rapidly with a smaller output from the photosensor when cell velocities are high, while a low cell travel speed will decrease the lowering of the output therefrom. The speckle signal thus mirrors the travel speed of the blood cells in the eye tissues. The differences in the speckle signal are used to identify the blood vessel for automatic tracking of the blood vessel or for measurement of its diameter.
Abstract:
An ink-jet printing apparatus comprises a thermal printing head having heating elements, and a film nozzle member having a plurality of holes for holding an ink and a plurality of connecting grooves for connecting same of the plurality of holes, said plurality of connecting grooves being formed in a surface thereof opposing the heating elements of the thermal printing head. While the heating elements are selectively heated, bubbles are formed in the heated ink filled in the plurality of holes in the film nozzle member as it passes over the heating elements, said bubbles being formed adjacently to the heating elements, and the ink ejected from the plurality of holes by the pressure created by the bubbles is attached to a printing member conveyed near the film nozzle member in the vicinity of the thermal printing head, thereby performing printing.
Abstract:
Carbon dioxide can be obtained in high recovery with high purity from a gas mixture containing 10% or more of carbon dioxide by a pressure-swing adsorption method wherein moisture in the gas mixture is removed with cooling and heating prior to the adsorption of the carbon dioxide on an adsorbent.
Abstract:
A beam direct converter recovers the energy of incoming ion particles intermingled with neutral particles. An angular cylindrical collector of the direct converter has its lengthwise side substantially aligned with the flowing direction of a beam of neutral particles. Angular cylindrical suppressors are provided upstream and downstream of the collector as viewed from the flowing direction of the beam of neutral particles. The collector is set at a positive potential to decelerate ion particles taken into the collector. Suppressors set at a negative potential prevent electrons produced outside of the direct converter from being carried into the collector. A plurality of conductive pipes are embedded in the suppressor. When the conductive pipes are supplied with current running in the same direction, a magnetic field acting in parallel with the plane of the suppressor envelops it. When, therefore, ion particles enter the suppressor with the emission of secondary electrons, it is possible to confine the secondary electrons in the magnetic field, thereby preventing them from being carried into the collector.
