A first separating/combining birefringent element 10, first and second optical-path controlling birefringent elements 11, 12, and a second separating/combining birefringent element 13 are spaced apart. Between the first separating/combining birefringent element and the first optical-path controlling birefringent element, a first polarization rotating means 14 is arranged for changing a polarization direction from an orthogonal relationship to a parallel relationship, or from a parallel relationship to an orthogonal relationship. Also, between the second optical-path controlling birefringent element and the second separating/combining birefringent element, a second polarization rotating means 17 is arranged. The first and second optical-path controlling birefringent elements are oppositely arranged symmetrically on optical axis about an arrangement center thereof, between which is arranged a ½-wavelength plate for rotating a polarization direction of a light on a central optical path 90 degrees, thereby structuring an optical circulator. With a similar structure, an optical switch can be structured by using a ±45-degree variable Faraday rotator in the first and second polarization rotation switch means.

An optical disc apparatus including a system controller that receives a recording control command via an interface. A recording control block that receives a recording method command signal indicative of one of recording with verify and real time recording and recording data from the system controller. An optical head that modulates the power of laser beam using a recording pulse sent from the control block and records the recording data on an information recording medium. The recording data is recorded in the information recording medium according to the recording with verify and the real time recording using different recording power respectively, in which under the recording with verify, the recording power determined by recording compensation learning is used, and under the real time recording, the recording power higher than the recording power obtained by the recording compensation learning is used.

A giant magneto-resistive effect element includes a laminated layer film having a ferromagnetic film, a non-magnetic film and an anti-ferromagnetic film. A current is caused to flow in the direction perpendicular to the film plane of the laminated layer film by upper and lower electrodes. Hard magnetic films are directly connected to both sides in the width direction of the laminated layer film. Insulating films are formed above or under the hard magnetic films. A current path between the upper electrodes or the lower electrodes and the laminated layer film is restricted by an opening defined between the insulating layers at both sides. The hard magnetic films have a specific resistance substantially the same as or larger than that of the laminated layer film. Further, there are provided a magneto-resistive effect type head, a thin-film magnetic memory and a thin-film magnetic sensor including the above-mentioned giant magneto-resistive effect element.

The present invention relates to an information providing system. More particularly, this invention relates to an information management apparatus capable of reliable management of distributed information and an information providing system employing the same information management apparatus. The information management apparatus comprises a main information reproducing means for reproducing main information recorded in a given recording medium; and a reproduction management means for managing the main information reproducing means for reproducing the main information. The present invention provides a receiving means provided with a means for recording distributed information and control information limiting the number of main information reproducing cycles on a recording medium, and a main information reproducing means provided with a reproduction disabling means for limiting the reproduction of main information.

A seat cushion pad for automobiles, wherein at least a part of the seat surface portion comprises a high-resilience foam. The foam is selected such that a load ratio (3%ISR) between a load at which the thickness is 25% compressed when pressed with a pressure plate having a diameter of 60 mm (25%-strain load) and a load at which the thickness is 3% compressed when pressed with the same pressure plate (3%-strain load) is at least about 6. Alternatively, another ratio (5%ISR) between the load at which the thickness is 25% compressed when pressed with the above dimensioned pressure plate (25%-strain load) and a load at which the thickness is 5% compressed when pressed with the pressure plate (5%-strain load) is selected to be at least about 4. Such design provides comfortable seating and resistance against fatigue even during periods of extended driving, and can be prepared at a low cost with a large degree of design freedom.
摘要:
An information recording and reproduction apparatus for recording and reproducing the information supplied through the transmission line is capable of protecting the copyright by limiting the reproduction of the recorded information. A main information signal supplied through the transmission line and a deadline signal attached to the main information signal and representing the reproduction deadline of the main information signal are recorded and reproduced by a recording device and a reproduction device respectively. A temporal information signal representing the date and time is acquired. The deadline signal reproduced is compared with the temporal information signal acquired. The reproduction output of the main information signal is cut off in accordance with the comparison signal produced by the comparison. In the case where the temporal information has passed the deadline, the reproduction output of the main information signal is cut off.

An input terminal (240) for assigning at least one information to be requested and a control circuit (100) for controlling a recording operation, a tape stopping operation and a detecting operation of a head of recorded information of a recording and reproducing apparatus (80) are provided on the side of a subscriber terminal (FIG. 1) having the recording and reproducing apparatus and, after all of information (A, B, C) assigned by the input terminal and received from an information transmitting station (FIG. 2) are recorded, a head of the first recorded information is detected.
摘要:
A surface of an upper rotary drum of a video tape recorder is machines such that it has a surface roughness in a range from 1 .mu.m to 2 .mu.m so as to enable a releasing of air on the upper rotary drum surface uniformly whereby a thickness of an air film between a magnetic tape and a head is uniformly reduced without affecting the tape running. The surface may be grooved concurrently with the roughened surface. A window is formed in rotary drum for receiving at least one magnetic head.
