摘要:
An electrophotographic marking machine is described including a first set of data with a plurality of parameters corresponding to a plurality of prior electrophotographic markings or frames. The electrophotographic marking machine further includes a second set of data selected from the first set of data based upon a predetermined set of criteria. In addition, the electrophotographic marking machine has a volatile storage device for storing the first set of data, and a non-volatile storage device for storing the second set of data. A method for assessing operability of an electrophotographic marking machine is also described. The method includes the steps of recording a first set of data including a plurality of parameters corresponding to a plurality of prior electrophotographic markings, storing the first set of data in a volatile storage device, selecting a second set of data from the first set of data based upon a predetermined set of criteria, and storing the second set of data in a non-volatile storage device.

摘要:
Fire alarm device disposed within a booth having a door, the fire alarm device being operable only when the door of the booth is closed by the person operating the device. Upon the actuation of the fire alarm, the door of the booth is locked for a predetermined length of time, and a signal light visible outside the booth is actuated so as to alert passers-by and/or policemen to the fact that the fire alarm has been pulled. The time delay period during which the person operating the alarm is confined in the booth is sufficient to prevent his making an immediate get-away. This increases the chances of his being caught, should the alarm be a false one, after the door has again been permitted to open to release him from the booth. It also encourages the alarm operator to remain in the vicinity of the alarm box, when the alarm is legitimate, so that he may direct the fire apparatus to the fire.
摘要:
A pin hole type star globe of a planetarium is provided with star identifying means for intermittently interrupting light projected through a pin hole of the star globe to form a star image on a viewing screen, thereby causing a perceptible, identifying blinking of said star image. The star identifying means includes an occluding arm which may be caused to swing back and forth into and out of interference with reference to the projected light; such swinging being caused by electrical, radio frequency means, controlled by step operating switching means.
