  • Patent number: 9992329
    Abstract: A communication apparatus, which captures a line in response to an off-hook operation, includes a first adjustment unit, a detection unit, and a second adjustment unit. The first adjustment unit performs first impedance adjustment according to detection of the off-hook operation. The detection unit detects a line current and a dial tone signal. The second adjustment unit performs second impedance adjustment based on the line current according to a result of detection of the dial tone signal by the detection unit after the first impedance adjustment is performed by the first adjustment unit.

  • Patent number: 8782455
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus, which is capable of preventing increase in power consumption and operating normally in a first electric power mode even when returning to the first electric power mode from a second electric power mode by an unknown return factor. A storage unit stores a destination setting of the image processing apparatus. A shift unit shifts the apparatus from the second electric power mode to the first electric power mode, when a shift factor is detected in the second electric power mode. A set unit sets a re-shift time for re-shifting the apparatus from the first electric power mode to the second electric power mode, according to the destination setting. A re-shift unit re-shifts the apparatus from the first electric power mode to the second electric power mode, when a predetermined event does not occur in the re-shift time in the first electric power mode.

  • Publication number: 20090148520
    Abstract: The present invention can inhibit the occurrence of defective products without increasing the hardness of a tablet even if stress is applied to the tablet on transporting it or packing it by an automatic dispensing machine or when taking it out of the PTP and besides can be put into practice easily and inexpensively to result in facilitating the improvement of the productivity. A tablet according to the present invention comprises a body portion (2) and cap portions (3) projecting from an upper and a lower surfaces (4) from the body portion (2) each in a convex shape. The cap portion (3) has a peripheral edge portion (7) a surface of which is provided with an upright angle (?) of 35 to 50 degrees with respect to the upper and lower surfaces (4) of the body portion (2) and is formed in a convex curved surface which becomes arcuate in vertical section.

  • Publication number: 20080076253
    Abstract: In the polishing head of a CMP device, the diaphragm which includes an elastic body film is fixed to a carrier plate with the diaphragm stop ring which includes a metallic material. The screw stop of the retaining ring which includes a resin material is done to this diaphragm stop ring with a screw from a lower part. A groove is formed in the under surface of a retaining ring, and the screw hole for doing the screw stop of the retaining ring is formed in the groove. By pressurizing the space sealed by a diaphragm, membrane, etc., a semiconductor wafer is pushed against a polishing pad via membrane, and CMP treatment of the semiconductor wafer is done.

  • Publication number: 20020080415
    Abstract: In the case of forwarding data received via a circuit by electronic mail, it is possible to forward it to a plurality of forwarding destinations. In that case, it is possible to register a format on forwarding for each forwarding destination. For instance, when attaching received images to the electronic mail, whether to attach all the images or just one page, and an image format for the sake of attachment can be registered. In addition, it is possible, in the case where the data is received based on the ITU-T T. 37 recommendation, to register whether to delete an attachment file received and transmit only the text, transmit only the attachment file or transmit both the text and the attachment file. Moreover, a forwarding method in the case where the forwarding destination is a mobile terminal can also be registered.
