Abstract: A spiral bevel gear having right and left tooth flanks having such a small pitch angle that either right or left ones are not seen in plan from the apex side of cone is molded by a powder molding device so as not to interfere with a die of the device when removed from the die. The die has teeth for molding and is rotatably supported. A fixed guide mechanism for guiding the die is provided. Guide portions of the guide mechanism have a predetermined lead so that the die is rotated guided by the guide portions when the molded article is punched out of the die. Thus, the teeth formed on the molded article reliably disengage from the teeth for molding. This makes it possible to reliably punch the molded article out of the die.

Abstract: There is disclosed a musical sound signal generation apparatus for creating vacant channels by monaural sounding, in which a left/right balance is maintained and the total sound volume can be increased. When there is a key-on, and there is no vacant channel, a pair of channels for stereo sounding are selected, one channel of the pair of channels is released at a high rate, the panning coefficient of the other channel is changed, and a monaural sound is outputted from left and right output systems. Similarly, another pair of channels are selected, one channel of the pair of channels is released at the high rate, the panning coefficient of the other channel is changed, and the monaural sound is outputted from the left and right output systems. The L and R channels of the new key-on are assigned to two vacant channels.

Abstract: A spiral helical gear having right and left tooth flanks having such a small pitch angle that either right or left ones are not seen in plan from the apex side of cone is molded by a powder molding device so as not to interfere with a die of the device when removed from the die.

Abstract: A musical sound generating system which generates musical sounds having desired tone regardless of the variation of volume setting. In the musical sound generating system, the standard tone control touch curve TCstd, the maximum tone control touch curve Tcmax, and the minimum tone control touch curve TCmin when the amplification factor V is standard (a standard amplification factor Vstd), maximum, and minimum respectively are stored. If the amplification factor is higher than the standard amplification factor Vstd, an interpolation between the standard tone control touch curve TCstd and the maximum tone control touch curve TCmax is performed, and the tone control touch curve TC according to the amplification factor V is obtained. Based on the tone control touch curve, the cut-off frequency F corresponding to the velocity value Tv is determined, and then the tone of the musical sound is controlled by the low pass filter with the cut-off frequency F.

Abstract: A bevel gear in which the sizing can be easily effected without degrading the quality of the gear. In a sintered or forged gear having a toothed portion (1) formed on an axial end face thereof, a notched groove (4) is formed in and across an outer circumferential surface of the gear in an axial direction. The construction of the notched groove (4) is specified so that its quality is kept.

Abstract: A musical sound producing device in an electronic musical instrument of stereophonic sampling system, including: an oscillator using status memory for storing each order of right and left oscillators which are being used for sound production, in accordance with an order of the sound production; a number-of-produced-sound memory register for storing each number of stereophonic sounds and a monophonic sound which are being produced at the same time by the oscillators memorized in the oscillator using status memory; and an oscillator assigning section for performing calculation in accordance with the numbers of the stereophonic sounds and the monophonic sound stored in the number-of-produced-sound memory register, switching at least one stereophonic sounds being produced over to monophonic sound, by damping an oscillator, when a musical sound is newly keyed on under a condition that the number of oscillators which are being used reaches a total number of oscillators, and assigning an oscillator damped by switchi

Abstract: An apparatus for attaching and detaching bearings comprises a stand which is arranged in a position where the bearing for the printing cylinder is attached to and detached from the hole on a frame in a printing press, and which is, also, arranged movably on the side face of the frame of the printing unit. To this stand, there are connected an actuator for extracting the bearing, and a member for extracting the bearing, which engages with the bearing. An apparatus is arranged in a printing press for horizontally holding the printing cylinder which is supported by the other bearing in a cantilever fashion when either one of the bearings supporting the shafts on both sides of the printing cylinder is removed. For this apparatus, a device is arranged for thirsting up the shaft of the printing cylinder, and two bearings are mounted in the bearing on the side where the printing cylinder is held in a cantilever fashion, and then, the interval between these bearings is widened.

Abstract: An apparatus for interlocking eccentric bearings for a printing cylinder in a printing press, wherein a connecting shaft is penetratingly arranged in the cylinder of the printing cylinder which is rotatively supported through a pair of eccentric side bearings mounted on a pair of side frames respectively, and each of the eccentric bearings is connected to the connecting shaft.

Abstract: In the sound source system, the waveform sampled from the sounds of keys pressed down with two or more kinds of intensity are synthesized in a specified rate, thereby forming the waveform of the sounds of keys pressed down with the other kind of intensity. Thus, almost the actual instrumental deep sounds can be reproduced. The sound waveform sampled from weak key presses is passed through a low pass filter, and the filtered waveform composed only of low order harmonic components is transformed to weak press data in the pulse code modulation system for the storage. Similarly, the sound waveform sampled from strong key presses are passed through a high pass filter, thereby removing the low order harmonic components. The filtered waveform composed only of the high order harmonic components are transformed to strong press data in the pulse code modulation system for the storage. The high pass filter can remove the frequency components which pass through the low pass filter.

Abstract: A bracket is secured to a wall member of a luggage compartment to define therebetween an enclosed space within which a swingable plate is disposed. A keeper bar secured to the swingable plate is projectable beyond the bracket into the compartment when the swingable plate is swung to a first predetermined position and is retractable into the enclosed space when the swingable plate is swung to a second predetermined position. A spring is arranged to bias the swingable plate to swing toward the first predetermined position holding the keeper bar to project into the compartment. If the keeper bar having been projected is pushed against the force of the spring, it is retracted into the space.
