Abstract: A data broadcast content generation system stores body data for displaying a body page, a plurality of sets of part data each being composed of display element data for determining a display element and attached data for displaying an attached page, and schedule information which associates each broadcast data slot with a set of part data. For each broadcast time slot, the body data, display element data of the set of part data, and attached data of the set of part data are related to each other, so that a display element determined by the display element data will be displayed in the body page and a link destination of the display element will be an attached page displayed using the attached data. The body data, the display element data, and the attached data are then set as carousel data to be transmitted during the broadcast time slot.

Abstract: Disclosed is a data broadcast content preview system for easily and promptly reproducing, for a preview purpose, an accumulation content by linking from a data broadcast content. The system includes a transmitting apparatus and a receiving apparatus. The transmitting apparatus transmits the accumulation content to the receiving apparatus where it is accumulated in a recording medium. The transmission is done without assembling the accumulation content into a transport stream (TS). Next, the transmitting apparatus transmits to the receiving apparatus the broadcast content after assembling into TS. With reference to link information shown by the received data broadcast information, the receiving apparatus specifies the linked destination in the recording medium at which the accumulation content is recorded, and reproduces the accumulation content.

Abstract: An electric compressor includes a compression mechanism, an electric motor and a housing. The compression mechanism draws, compresses and discharges refrigerant gas. The electric motor drives the compression mechanism. The housing accommodates the compression mechanism and the electric motor. A heat sink extends from the housing. An inverter is located in the housing. The inverter powers the electric motor. A heat sink cools the inverter. The heat sink is cooled by refrigerant gas. The heat generated by the inverter is therefore effectively reduced.

Abstract: An electric noise absorber for preventing looseness of magnetic body parts in a closed housing, without increasing the number of parts or decreasing the strength of the housing. The housing comprises a pair of case halves which house ferrite core halves, respectively, and are hinged to each other. The bottom wall of each case half is formed with a curved shape convex toward the space housing the ferrite core half. When the case halves are closed with the ferrite cores therein, the ferrite cores press each other toward respective bottom walls and resiliently deform the walls. The resilience of the deformed bottom walls urges abutting surfaces of the ferrite cores into close contact.

Abstract: A gray scaled data generation device which generates characters and figures of a size which is a fixed number of pixels as gray scaled data, based on outline data which includes outline information which expresses outlines of strokes included in characters and figures and stroke information which shows positions of horizontal and vertical strokes, wherein the gray scaled data generation device has optimizing means for optimizing a position of a stroke, said position being in a coordinate system in which the position is expressed in terms of fine pixels given by dividing every pixel of said size in both a horizontal and a vertical direction, by moving a position of every stroke expressed in the stroke information to a position which satisfies certain criteria related to distances from a border of each pixel; outline generation means for generating outlines in said coordinate system from the outline information, for each stroke which has had its position optimized; and gray scaled data generation means for gene

Abstract: A hollow and cylindrical laminated molded product which is constituted by mutually overlapped joining of edge sides in a longitudinal direction of at least one or more elongated laminated articles formed by layered lamination of fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin plates containing reinforcing fibers of not less than 30% and not more than 85% in volume content, and a method of producing the above-mentioned laminated molded product using a simple molding tool.

Abstract: A process for making a laminated sheet by cutting a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin sheet into a plurality of cut sheets. The cut sheets are feed to a butting apparatus to bring adjacent end faces of the cut sheets against each other. The abutted cut sheets are joined to a continuous sheet, which is a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin sheet, by melt welding using a heated roller where the cut sheets and the continuous sheet cling to the heated roller. Cooling of the joined cut sheets and continuous sheet occurs by causing such to cling to a cooling roller. A correcting roller is moved along the cooling roller, where the joined cut sheets and continuous sheet are between the cooling roller and the correcting roller, so that the amount of contact arc between the joined cut sheets and continuous sheet is changed to adjust the amount of warp in the joined cut sheets and continuous sheet.

Abstract: The present invention enables application of the bold process to thicken the data or the outline process to hollow the inside of the data to leave the contour thereof to the gray scale data representing the gray scale font data or image data. Using the gray scale modified data as a result of modification process can make sentences visually appealing. The gray scale modified data comprises an area judging means, a background color area processing means, and a non-background color area processing means. The area judging means judges whether each pixel on the gray scale data to be processed has the background color level. The background color area processing means sets a value calculated by the values of the neighboring pixels of each pixel on the background color area to the value of the mapping pixel on the modified data.

Abstract: A cord clamp has relatively rotatable annular members locatable in at least three relative orientations. Therefore, the mounting angle of the annular members, for example, onto the inside of a cabinet can be adjusted in a wide range, thus increasing work efficiency and improving usage. In addition the cord clamp has a retainer for releasably locking the annular members together and preventing the annular members from being released unexpectedly. Thus, the cord clamp secure the holding or gripping of a cord.
