    Abstract: A flashlight control apparatus having a device for emitting flashlight towards a subject and a device for receiving the light reflected from the subject through a photographing lens. An output is generated which corresponds to the received light which is time-integrated in order to calculate the amount of light received. An optimum integration level is calculated which is to be integrated. This optimum integration level corresponds to an optimum quantity of flashlight to be emitted by the emitting means, based on film speed information. A time limit is also calculated, which is shorter, by a predetermined length of time, than an optimum emission time of the emitting device. This optimum emission time is based on aperture value information and object distance information. The emitting device is controlled to stop emitting flashlight when the time limit elapses, in the case where a quantity of light received by the light receiving devices has reached an optimum quantity before the time limit elapses.

    Abstract: The present invention has as its object to detect the termination of ink reliably and highly accurately in an ink jet recording apparatus. An ink cartridge 2 has an opening 5 for connection to a recording head 1, and is comprised of a negative pressure generating member containing portion 14 containing a negative pressure generating member 13 and having an atmosphere communicating port 10, and an ink containing portion 16 which is adjacent to the negative pressure generating member containing portion 14 and communicates therewith at the bottom 11 of the ink cartridge. Ink detecting means 3 is provided below the ink containing portion 16. When the detecting means 3 detects a reduction in the remain in the ink containing portion 16, ink remains only in the negative pressure generating member containing portion 14 and the remainder can be substantially estimated. For the remaining ink, the amount of use is calculated by the counting of discharge pulses or the like and is compared, whereby the remain of the ink can be detected accurately and easily.

    Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for manufacturing a liquid container having an enclosed space within an inner wall of the liquid container, the enclosed space filled with a plurality of porous members. The plurality of porous members include a plurality of inner porous members and a plurality of outer porous members. The method includes the step of packing the porous members into the enclosed space so that the inner porous members only contact and press against other inner porous members and/or outer porous members, and the outer porous members contact and press against the inner porous members and the inner wall of the liquid container. The method also comprises a step of compressing the porous members. The apparatus has compressing means for compressing the porous members and packing means for packing the porous members into the liquid container. The invention aims to reduce an amount of non-dischargeable liquid contained by the liquid container by packing porous members into the liquid container with a desired compression distribution. The invention also aims to allow the same kind of porous members to be suitably packed into containers that store liquids having different surface tensions, or containers having different capacities or shapes.

    Abstract: A device for controlling a partial number of engine cylinders employs a geneva movement, intake-air-cutoff valves, an exhaust-gas-cutoff valve and a DC motor. The geneva movement divides the driving force of the DC motor into two: a force intermittently driving the intake-air-cutoff valves and a force driving the exhaust-gas-cutoff valve, so that the exhaust-gas-cutoff valve cannot open until the intake-air-cutoff valve has closed when the engine operation is changed over to a partial-cylinder-operation mode, and the intake-air-cutoff valve cannot open until the exhaust-gas-cutoff valve has closed when the engine operation is changed over to the full-cylinder-operation mode. As a result, time required for changeover of the engine operation between the full-cylinder operation and the partial-cylinder operation is minnimized and additional driving unit is omitted.

    Abstract: A camera and interchangeable lenses for such camera in which it is automatically detected whether or not the lens mounted on the camera has an automatic focusing capability. If it does, respective sets of electrical contacts provided on the lens and camera body are employed to transmit and receive a series of different data between the camera body and the lens. If it does not, the only a single datum is transmitted, for example, an open lens-stop value of the lens, is transmitted over the two sets of contacts. An automatic focusing actuation voltage applied from the camera body can be sensed to determine whether or not the lens has the automatic focusing capability.
