An electro-optical element includes a core layer made of an electro-optical material, a clad structure disposed on each of opposite sides of the core layer and configured to form an optical waveguide together with the core layer, and a pair of electrode layers, one of which being disposed on one side of the clad structure and another being disposed on another side of the clad structure. The clad structure includes a first clad layer and a second layer. The second clad layer has a dielectric permittivity larger than that of the first clad layer, and the second clad layer has a thickness thicker than that of the first clad layer.

In attachment structure for motor assembly, accommodating portion with a bottom is formed in housing such that the motor assembly including commutator motor and brush holder unit is accommodated therein with the brush holder unit facing downward. Receiving portion for positioning the brush holder unit is formed in the accommodating portion. Abutment portion is formed on the brush holder unit for positioning between stator and the brush holder unit. The motor assembly is positioned within the accommodating portion such that the brush holder unit is in contact with the receiving portion and that the stator and the brush holder unit are brought into contact with each other through the abutment portion. Fixing member is inserted from an open side of the housing, brought into contact with the stator, and fixed to the housing, so that the motor assembly is interposed between the fixing member and the receiving portion.

A print data conversion area can be created to reflect that all printed slips are not the same size. A printer includes a conveyance unit that conveys checks with one edge following a guide extending in the conveyance direction, a length detection unit that detects the length of the conveyed check in the conveyance direction, and a conversion area formation unit that creates a print data conversion area to which print data for the entire image to be recorded on the check is written. The conversion area formation unit determines the range of the conversion area with reference to a position corresponding to a particular position on the check using the detected length of the check in the conveyance direction.

A multibeam deflector includes a plurality of optical deflection devices formed on a single substrate and an output optical system. Each of the optical deflection devices includes a slab optical waveguide formed by a material having an electro-optic effect. The output optical system is configured to separate beams output from the optical deflection devices from each other.

An image correction apparatus and method enable correcting an image so that the image is always discernible and at least text can be read regardless of user settings. A correction range that increases the gray level and a correction range that decreases the gray level are calculated for each image to calculate the correction range suitable for the particular image.

A color reduction processing apparatus and method that is simple to configure and adjust produces two-color print image data reflecting the impression of the original full-color image. Each pixel in a full-color image is converted to binarized principal and secondary color print data by principal and secondary color processors respectively using respective threshold value matrices. The threshold values of these matrices, which are calculated from a reference threshold value matrix stored in memory, can be adjusted, via adjustment values, to control the overall density of the principal and secondary colors. The adjustment values can be set in a matrix configuration unit. The binarized principal and secondary color print data can also be further corrected by correction and/or filtering operations performed by a correction processor.

A battery pack has a rechargeable battery, a pair of externally exposed charge/discharge terminals connected to the electrodes of the rechargeable battery, and an externally exposed battery pack signal terminal for identifying the type of the battery pack. The battery pack further has a battery pack communication portion connected to the battery pack signal terminal for receiving an authenticity signal transmitted from an electrical equipment unit through the battery pack signal terminal; a random number generating portion for generating a random number based on a predetermined condition; and a battery pack control portion for generating a detection signal based on the authenticity signal received by the battery pack communication portion and the random number generated by the random number generating portion, and for transmitting the detection signal from the battery pack communication portion to the electrical equipment unit side through the battery pack signal terminal.

A pipeline closing apparatus comprises a lid member attachable to a downstream end portion of a sluice valve, a first control shaft extending through the lid member, a second control shaft extending through the first control shaft, an elastic annular member disposed between pressing plates provided on inward end regions of the control shafts and elastically deformable to a diameter-increased position by being clamped and pressed, thereby to block between an inner peripheral surface of a branch pipe and the pressing plates, and a retaining device. The retaining device includes engaging link pairs flexing and bulging to a diameter-increased position in response to outward sliding movement of the second control shaft relative to the first control shaft. The apparatus further comprises a reversal preventing device F which contacts and limits the engaging link pairs to an outwardly bent position where flexing pivotal portions of the engaging link pairs project radially outward.

An optical control device includes a photonic crystal and a line-defect waveguide formed in the photonic crystal wherein the optical control device is capable of guiding, through the line-defect waveguide, a light having a wavenumber larger than a wavenumber corresponding to an anti-intersection of an even-mode band and an odd-mode band, the even-mode band and odd-mode band being a waveguide band of the line-defect waveguide, wherein the even-mode band of the line-defect waveguide includes two or more inflection points in a wavenumber region larger than a wavenumber corresponding to an intersection of the even-mode band and said odd-mode band, the optical control device guiding a light having a frequency in the vicinity of the inflection point.
