  • Publication number: 20070134434
    Abstract: The present invention provides a method which enables to save the trouble to prepare alloys having required particular compositions responding to the purposes and to prepare solder ink made from the alloys, and which enables to produce various forms of solder pattern on the board by adjusting the composition freely at the point of printing. The method for forming a solder pattern on a board by ink jet printing comprises the step of injecting two or more kinds of respective metal pastes on a board independently, wherein a solder composition of a solder pattern to be formed is adjusted by the amount of injection of the respective metal pastes in the area that the metal pastes are injected thereto.

  • Patent number: 7187867
    Abstract: The present invention provides a bilateral communication network system, particularly, a optical wireless communication system communicating information frames via an optical node mounted on a mobile object and a plurality of optical repeaters connected to a wired network, which can prevent transfer performance from deteriorating without increasing frames to be transferred. The optical wireless communication system is constituted as follows. A plurality of the optical repeaters having functions to switch information frames are attached to a ceiling. The optical node bilaterally communicating with the optical repeaters are mounted on a moving object such as a robot, a vehicle or the like. Information frames including address information of the optical node are periodically transmitted from an information processor connected to the optical node via optical wireless communication.

  • Publication number: 20060079200
    Abstract: In a disaster system control method and apparatus transmitting disaster status information through a mobile communication network or a fixed communication network, in order to promptly transmit/receive disaster status information at a time of a disaster occurrence between a disaster monitoring person and afflicted people within a disaster occurrence area, a bandwidth control apparatus assigns a bandwidth for a packet call in preference to other calls, a mobile terminal installs an application for disaster thereon for transmitting/receiving disaster status information between a disaster system center and the mobile terminal itself, and the disaster system center provides the mobile terminal within a disaster occurrence area with an application for disaster startup mail to start up the application for disaster.
