Patent number: 9760222Abstract: Embodiments herein include a device, system, and method for periodically capturing sensing signals using one or more detection electrodes to generate data for detecting an object proximate to the detection electrodes. The sensing signals are captured during detection periods within periodic detection cycles where each of the detection cycles define a period of time between consecutive detection periods. In addition, the device, system and method set a duration of the detection cycle to 1/m (where m is appositive integer) of a duration of a display-scan cycle. The value of m is selected based on a periodic noise signal. Thus, the device, system, and method may prevent a periodic noise signal which has a cycle that is longer than the detection period from worsening the accuracy of touch detection.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2014Date of Patent: September 12, 2017Assignee: Synaptics Japan GKInventors: Tatsuya Ishii, Nobukazu Tanaka, Hiroshi Takeyama, Akihito Akai

Patent number: 5281374Abstract: An automatic purging method for an injection molding machine which is capable of injecting an arbitrary material among different kinds of materials into a mold without requiring a resin replacing block or a purging container and an additional material supply means for increasing the material supply pressure, and which has a nozzle valve in a nozzle unit. This method is used so as to enable the automatic purging to be done smoothly and speedily by operating the nozzle valve so that it behaves according to a predetermined program. This automatic purging method consists of the steps of supplying a fresh material from a hopper (7) into a screw cylinder (1), rotating a screw with a nozzle valve (4) closed, for a predetermined period of time or until the screw has been moved back a preset stroke, to plasticize the resin, and then purging the molten resin with the nozzle valve (4) set to a predetermined degree of opening.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 1989Date of Patent: January 25, 1994Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Komatsu SeisakushoInventors: Kazuo Matsuda, Nobuaki Inaba, Masashi Kaminishi, Tetsuji Funabashi, Nobukazu Tanaka
