Abstract: A heat-sensitive recording material is described comprising a support having a recording layer provided thereon, said recording layer containing (1) at least one colorless or pale-colored basic dye, (2) hydroquinone monobenzyl ether, and (3) at least one compound selected from compounds represented by the formulae (I) to (IV): ##STR1## wherein X and Y are each a chlorine atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 7 carbon atoms, a phenyl group or a benzyl group; m and n are each an integer of 0 to 3; and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 7 carbon atoms, a phenyl group or a benzyl group, or R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 may jointly form a cyclohexane ring. The heat-sensitive recording material is suitable for use in high-speed recording, e.g., high-speed facsimiles.

Abstract: A main memory control system reconstructs the main memory following DP system failure to ensure continuous logical address to operative physical memory mapping so that the DP system can be restarted using a rescue type initial program load. An address converting table has word registers addressable by logical address for storing the respective preassigned physical unit memory addresses and corresponding flags to indicate whether the unit memories are operative. Prior to DP system restart, the words of the address converting table are shifted among the registers to reallocate the real addresses of nonfunctioning unit memories to the read address of functioning unit memories.

Abstract: A partition member divides the interior of the rear cylinder head into a low pressure chamber and a high pressure chamber on one side of the partition member facing the valve plate and into an oil separating chamber on the opposite side. Formed in the high pressure chamber at its peripheral portion are first and second oil collecting chambers which communicate with the drive shaft-fitted hole of the cylinder block, allowing lubricating oil therein to be fed to the hole. The oil separating chamber is provided with a guide wall for guiding suction fluid in a swirling manner. A third oil collecting chamber is defined between the guide wall and the inner peripheral wall of the rear cylinder head and communicates with the oil sump in the cylinder block, allowing lubricating oil therein to be returned to the oil sump.

Abstract: A process for treating a fibrous structure is provided. The fibrous structure comprises at least two components at least one of which is a polyester containing an SO.sub.3 M group wherein M represents hydrogen or an alkali metal. The process is characterized in that the fibrous structure is treated with an agent which deteriorates the polyester prior to the alkali treatment for the removal of the polyester component.

Abstract: A device responsive to an unusual temperature change in a refrigerant compressor using an electromagnetic clutch including a magnet coil as an actuating element of the clutch, comprising an overcurrent-responsive element such as a fuse connected in parallel with the magnet coil, a temperature-responsive switch operative to be open when the temperature in the compressor rises beyond a predetermined value, and a switching element such as a transistor which is non-conductive when the temperature-responsive switch is closed and which is made conductive to cause the fuse to melt when the temperature-responsive switch is made to open.

Abstract: In a heat-sensitive record material comprising a base sheet and a color developing layer formed thereon, a pigment having an oil absorption within the range of 80 to 800 ml/100 g is additionally included in the color developing layer.

Abstract: A multiprocessor initialization sequence provides diagnostic routines in each processor and interconnects the several processors only if the diagnostic routines indicate positive results. Apparatus external to the individual processors places the processors in an initialization mode during which time the diagnostic routines will be run. A host selection signal is sent to one of the plural processors and that processor in turn sends subprocessor selection signals to all of the other processors. The diagnostic routine for a given processor is initiated in response to either a host selection signal or a subprocessor selection signal. If a failure is detected in the diagnostic routine in the host processor, the failure is registered and sent to all subprocessors. If a failure is detected in a subprocessor, it is simply registered as a failure but not sent to the host processor.

Abstract: A float operated switch (21) is actuated when the level of refrigerant fluid in a reservoir (11) is below a predetermined value to produce an electrical signal. The signal is delayed by 10 to 30 seconds and applied to a switch circuit (54) to disengage an electromagnetic clutch (63) and thereby de-energize a compressor (64). The clutch (63) is also disengaged by the action of a thermal switch (61) when the temperature in a space which is being air conditioned drops below a predetermined value. The operation of the float operated switch (21) is inhibited when the sensed temperature is below the predetermined value and also when a motor which drives the compressor (64) is not operating to prevent erroneous de-energization of the compressor (64).

Abstract: In a heat-sensitive record material comprising a base sheet having a color developing layer which includes finely divided particles of chromogenic material and finely divided particles of acceptor, a heat fusible material having a relatively low melting point is included in said finely divided particles of chromogenic material and/or said finely divided particles of acceptor.

Abstract: The heat-sensitive record material comprises a base sheet and a color developing layer formed on at least one surface of said base sheet, said color developing layer comprising electron donating color forming material and acceptor reactive with said color forming material to develop a color, said color developing layer further including as a binder water soluble resinous material having carboxyl radicals, partly in the form of magnesium salt and partly in the form of another salt.

Abstract: In a heat-sensitive record material comprising a base sheet and a color developing layer formed thereon, a pigment having an oil absorption within the range of 80 to 800 ml/100 g is additionally included in the color developing layer.

Abstract: A rotor is operatively provided in a bore of a cylinder which is formed with an inlet and an outlet. The cylinder is enclosed by a housing with an annular chamber being defined between the cylinder and the housing. The housing has an inlet which is connected to the inlet of the cylinder. The outlet of the cylinder is provided at an upper portion thereof. An oil sump is defined by a lower portion of the annular chamber of the housing. A partition divides the interior of the housing into the annular chamber within which the cylinder is disposed and an outlet chamber which communicates with an outlet of the housing. The lower portion of the partition is cut away to communicate the annular chamber with the outlet chamber.
