摘要:
This invention relates to the emulation processing method of a storage device and the storage device for accessing storage medium from a host that has a different sector size, and where alternate processing is performed in the sector unit of storage medium even when there is a writing error when updating the disk. In a system where a second sector size of a host is smaller than a first sector size of the storage medium, data that are staged in a buffer according to a request from the host is rewritten using write data, and then staged sector data or the rewritten sector data are saved in an alternate area and the storage medium is updated with the rewritten sector data. Since the sector data before updating is saved beforehand, it is possible to perform alternate processing using the sector unit of the storage medium.

A vehicle light apparatus which serves to change a lighting range of a lamp L for illuminating a forward part of the vehicle corresponding to a steering angle of the vehicle comprises lighting range control means for turning the lighting range into an opposite direction to a current steering direction when steering is returned into a straight running direction. When a steering angular velocity is greater than a predetermined value, a lighting range for illuminating an opposite side is increased following the return of the steering into the straight running direction. A next curve or the course of an intersection road can be illuminated prior to the steering operation in a running condition on an S-shaped road or an intersection road in which right and left turns continue. Thus, the vehicle light apparatus is very effective for maintaining the safe running of the vehicle on a curved road and an intersection road.

A vehicle light apparatus comprises a controller 10 for changing a lighting range of a lamp L for illuminating a forward part of a vehicle corresponding to a steering angle of the vehicle and for controlling the lighting range of lighting means corresponding to a steering angular velocity of the vehicle. Alternatively, there is provided lighting range control means for changing a lighting range of lighting means for illuminating a forward part of the vehicle corresponding to a steering angle of the vehicle and for controlling the lighting range of the lighting means based on an operation of a turn signal lamp of the vehicle. It is possible to decide a running condition of the vehicle from the steering angular velocity or the operation state of the turning signal lamp and a vehicle speed, thereby rapidly controlling a change in the lighting direction or the lighting area of the lamp L in a running direction. Consequently, it is possible to carry out an illumination in the running direction prior to a steering operation. Thus, it is effective for maintaining the safe running of the vehicle on a curved road and an intersection road.

The lighting directions of a plurality of lamps RL and LL are controlled independently or integrally corresponding to a running condition. When a vehicle changes a running direction, the direction of the optical axis of one of the lamps is deflected earlier in the running direction and the direction of the optical axis of the other lamp is maintained in a straight running direction in a running condition in which other cars or obstacles might be present in the straight running direction of the vehicle, and the direction of the optical axis of the other lamp is deflected with a delay upon receipt of a further steering operation. It is possible to carry out an illumination in the running direction and the straight running direction of the vehicle. In particular, the invention is very effective for maintaining the safety running of the vehicle on an intersection road or at time of a lane change.

A vehicle lighting system includes a plurality of lamps having their own inherent respective light distribution characteristics. The plurality of lamps includes a first lamp to irradiate an area excluding a nearest field area just in front of a vehicle, and a second lamp which irradiates only the nearest field area. The plurality of lamps are operable to be simultaneously or selectively lit, and are operable so that irradiation lights of the lamps are combined so as to obtain a particular light distribution characteristic in accordance with various driving conditions of a vehicle.

A lamp unit including mirror member 18 having an upward reflecting surface 18a, which reflects part of reflected light from a reflector 16 upward and is disposed between the reflector 16 and a projection lens 12. The mirror member 18 can be moved in the direction of an optical axis Ax and can take a reference position, where the front end edge 18a1 of the upward reflecting surface 18a is located at the rear focal point F of the projection lens 12, and a front movement position, which is located forward a predetermined distance from the reference position. When the mirror member is moved to the front movement position, part of the reflected light from the reflector 16 passes through a space behind the mirror member 18 so as to be incident on the lower region of the projection lens 12.

There is disclosed an information reproducing apparatus and an information recording apparatus in which information transfer is possible by an information amount unit different from a sector unit, so that a burden on a host apparatus is lightened, waste of transfer time is avoided, and information protection level is raised. In a magnetooptic disk drive 10 which serves as both the information reproducing apparatus and the information recording apparatus, non-sector unit information is designated as reproducing information, information for the integer number of sectors including the non-sector unit information is reproduced from a magnetooptic disk 20, and only the non-sector unit information is outputted to a host computer 30. Moreover, the non-sector unit information is received as recording information from the host computer 30, the information for the integer number of sectors is reproduced from the integer number of sectors including an area in which the non-sector unit information is to be recorded, a part of the information for the integer number of sectors is replaced with the non-sector unit information, and the partially replaced information for the integer number of sectors is recorded in the magnetooptic disk 20.

摘要:
A vehicle lighting system comprising an additional illumination lamp for additionally illuminating ahead of a vehicle and a control means for controlling turn-on and turn-off of the additional illumination lamp so as to follow a steering angle at which the vehicle is steered. The control means sets a turn-on reference steering angle θ2 for turning on the additional illumination lamp based on the steering angle, a primary turn-off reference steering angle θ1 for turning off the additional illumination lamp at a steering angle which is smaller than the turn-on reference steering angle θ2 and a secondary turn-off reference steering angle θ3 for turning off the additional illumination lamp at a steering angle which is larger than the primary turn-off reference steering angle θ1 when the vehicle is steered to a predetermined steering angle which is larger than the turn-on reference steering angle θ2.
摘要:
Lamp units for radiating a beam ahead of a vehicle in a light distribution pattern are housed in a lamp body. Illumination of the auxiliary lamp units is controlled based on driving conditions. Illumination control means extinguish light through dimming by gradually decreasing voltage applied to the light sources. When the applied voltage has dropped to a threshold value, the applied voltage is controlled to zero immediately. Compared to when the lamps remaining in an illuminated state are suddenly extinguished, a change in quantity of light is mild, and no uncertainty arises. Below a threshold value where the applied voltage gradually drops to the threshold value and a change may arise in the filament crystalline structure due to annealing at a transition temperature, the applied voltage approaches zero. Hence, the filament does not pass from the transition temperature while being rapidly cooled, thus avoiding filament crystalline structure change.
