In a spark plug (100), the resistor composition constituting a resistor (15) contains semiconductive ceramic particles, offering a superior load life characteristic. Also, the value of (.alpha.2-.alpha.1)/.alpha.1 >=-0.30, where a value of electric resistance between a terminal (13) and a center electrode (3) is .alpha.1 at 20.degree. C. and .alpha.2 at 150.degree. C., so that deterioration of the radio frequency noise prevention performance at high temperatures can be effectively suppressed. The resistor composition contains semiconductive ceramic particles whose temperature coefficient of electric resistance shows a positive value, or a negative value of relatively small absolute value, (e.g., TiO.sub.2 particles having a rutile type crystalline structure, titanate or zirconate of alkali earth metal elements, titanium suboxide, etc.), or titanium metal. Thus, the invention provides a resistor-incorporated spark plug which is enabled to offer a stable load life characteristic even when a high load acts thereon, and which is unlikely to deteriorate in the radio frequency noise prevention performance even under high temperatures.

A memory control device having a plurality of data transfer paths including a storage device group comprising a plurality of storage devices for storing data and a buffer memory group comprising multiple buffer memories for storing transferred data, dividing files into multiple blocks for storing blocks in multiple storage devices on different data transfer paths, and executing control to read data from the storage device to be output with a request from a connected terminal to the buffer memory wherein storage devices on different paths create multiple virtual storage device groups, and buffer memories create virtual buffer memory groups. The memory control device comprises a data output control for executing control in a first cycle, the data being temporarily dividedly stored in a prescribed virtual storage device group. In a second cycle the device outputs data stored in the virtual buffer memory group and by alternately repeating first and second cycles, data read from the plural virtual buffer memories group is switched.

A packet recording/reproducing system is provided which records or reproduces packets on or from tracks formed in time sequence on a magnetic tape. In a recording operation, the packet recording/reproducing system adds to input packets time stamps whose values are synchronous with packet arrival time control clocks produced by the system. The timing with which the packets are recorded on the magnetic tape is controlled by the arrival time control clocks so that a given number of the packets inputted at high data rate are recorded within a one-track area, a two-track area, or a one-track over area defined across at least two of the tracks, thereby minimizing the loss of capacity of the magnetic tape.

A spinning ring structure for use on a spinning frame comprises a stationary ring fixedly held in place, a rotary ring fitted in the stationary ring coaxially with the stationary ring so as to rotate about its center axis and provided with an annular flange at its upper end, a traveler put on the flange of the rotary ring for traveling along the flange to guide a yarn to a bobbin disposed coaxially with the rotary ring. Openings are formed through a neck portion of the rotary ring, whereby flies produced during the spinning operation by friction between the yarn and the traveler are discharged outside the spinning ring structure through the openings due to centrifugal force.
摘要:
In order to reduce radio interference jamming in the same channel exerting from an adjacent broadcasting area when a digitized image signal of, for example, high-definition television utilizing an idle channel in ground broadcasting of television is transmitted, a digital string such as a binary coded image signal is thinned out every predetermined digital period so as to be divided into two groups. Continuous digital strings of two series are formed by converting clock rates of the respective groups and converted into multi-value digits. Intermediate carriers are then modulated with the digital signals of the two series having their requisite bands compressed through quadrature modulation to form modulated carriers, and the modulated carriers are transmitted in bands of two divisional channels which escape from adjacent video and voice carriers, the power of which is responsible for the radio interference in the same channel. The carriers are subsequently received for reconstruction.

An image processor for performing trace processing for tracing the line image has an image memory for storing image data, a data memory for storing graphic data, a display unit for displaying the image data and the graphic data, an input unit for entering trace designation, a semi-automatic image trace processing section for performing the trace processing for tracing the line image of the image data in a semi-automatic way, and a tracing-rule description processing section for designating a trace method for tracing the line image. The line width of the line image is detected by designating a point in the vicinity of a pixel line as a start point for detecting the line width of the line image as an object of tracing the image data, retrieving a change point for changing pixels on a contour of the line image from the start point, and detecting the line width by detecting the number of the pixels in a continuous pixel line arranged in the line-width direction of the line image from the change point.

An image processing device has an image memory for storing image data, a semi-automatically trace processing for tracing line images of the image data by entering a trace starting point of the image data and an instruction to start tracing, and a display input unit for giving an instruction to enter on a display screen, thereby starting tracing the line images of the image data from the trace starting point thereof. In the method for entering the trace starting points, the image of the image data to be traced is displayed on the display screen through the display input unit, a line segment for specifying the trace starting points thereof is entered so as to intersect the line image displayed on the display screen, an intersecting point at which the line segment therefor intersects the line image is determined, and the resulting intersecting point is entered as a trace starting point, together with an instruction to start tracing.

A graphics processing device has an image data storing unit for storing image data, a graphic data storing unit for storing graphic data, a coordinate inputting unit for inputting coordinates, a display unit for displaying the image data and the graphic data, and a graphic operation processing unit for processing the image data and the graphic data. The graphic data are processed with reference to the image data displayed on the display unit by designating a control point. The designation of the control point is made to allow its image characteristic point recognizing section to set a predetermined region in the neighborhood of an input point inputted for the graphic operation, to recognize a shape of an image in the predetermined region, decide a characteristic point of the image corresponding to the shape of the image recognized, and to deliver the characteristic point of the image as the control point to a control point inputting unit.
