Abstract:
A controller for a liquid discharging device generates a correction chart including a reference pattern and a correction part, using a liquid discharged from a liquid discharge head, the liquid discharge head having a plurality of nozzles that are arranged to form a nozzle array. The controller drives a predetermined number of the plurality of nozzles to form the reference pattern on the recording sheet along a direction of the nozzle array, the predetermined number being a number equal to or less than a total number of the plurality of nozzles of the nozzle array, and drives a number of the plurality of nozzles that is different than the predetermined number of nozzles driven in forming the reference pattern, to form the correction pattern on the recording sheet along the direction of the nozzle array.
Abstract:
An information system with an enhanced effect in reducing jitter with a short period. An input clock signal CLKi is output via a voltage-controlled delay circuit 14 as an output clock signal CLKo, and an amount of delay in the voltage-controlled delay circuit 14 is controlled based on the result of comparison of a phase of the input clock signal CLKi and that of the output clock signal CLKo. A phase correction circuit 21 receives the input clock signal CLKi and the output clock signal CLKo. If, after the DLL circuit has become locked, the input clock signal and the output clock signal are out of phase relative to each other, the phase correction circuit 21 corrects the phase of the input clock signal CLKi based on a phase of the output clock signal CLKo to output a signal to the variable delay circuit 14 (FIG. 1).
Abstract:
Jitter is stably reduced. An input clock signal (CLKi) is outputted as an output clock signal (CLKo) via a voltage controlled delay circuit (12), and in addition a delay amount in the voltage controlled delay circuit (12) is controlled based on a result of a phase comparison of the input clock signal (CLKi) and the output clock signal (CLKo). A phase comparison result judging circuit (15) adds up results of phase comparison of the input clock signal (CLKi) and the output clock signal (CLKo) over a prescribed time, and controls the delay amount based on a distribution of addition results.

Abstract:
A driven-side rotator is rotatable synchronously with a camshaft and is supported between a gear member and a sprocket member of the driving-side rotator in an axial direction. A stopper portion of the driven-side rotator is adapted to contact the driving-side rotator in a rotational direction to limit a change in a relative phase between the crankshaft and the camshaft. The stopper portion radially outwardly projects from a small diameter portion provided at one end part of the driven-side rotator. A large diameter portion is provided at the other end part of the driven-side rotator and has a radial size that is measured from a rotational axis to a radially outer peripheral surface of the large diameter portion and is equal to or larger than that of the stopper portion.
