  • Patent number: 5907317
    Abstract: A graph displaying device and method whereby when functional expression data for producing graphs and the conditions of displaying the graphs are set, graphs for functional expressions data input in accordance with the conditions are displayed in corresponding colors on a display. First, functional expression data and corresponding color data which designate display colors of the graphs are input in corresponding relationship. In addition, range data which display coordinates and color data designating display colors of coordinates involved in the range data are input together. In response to this operation, the graphs for the input functional expression data are produced with the range data to which the color data are designated, the last-mentioned color data corresponding to color data which correspond to the functional expression data. The produced graphs and the coordinates are displayed in the corresponding designated colors.

  • Patent number: 5587994
    Abstract: A cartridge provided with a case for housing an optical disk so that it can be driven and rotated. A recessed section is formed around the peripheral edge of the center hole of the optical disk. A hub, which is used for clamping the optical disk by the use of a magnetic force, is formed into a hat-shape, and it is placed at the recessed section. The height of the hub is set to be greater than the gap between the optical disk and the cartridge case. Without the necessity of fixing the hub to the disk, this arrangement makes it possible to prevent the hub from coming off from the recessed section. Thus, the arrangement eliminates the fixing process between the hub and the optical disk as well as maintaining the clamping function of the hub, thereby making it possible to reduce the manufacturing cost.

  • Patent number: 5539867
    Abstract: A graph display apparatus wherein a dynamic invention has the following arrangement. A dynamic graph key in a key input unit is operated by a user and a functional formula subjected to graph calculation and a change range and a change pitch of a coefficient value present in the functional formula input using numeric. symbol keys are stored in a formula register in a RAM (Random Access Memory). When an execution key is operated in a state wherein a coefficient change speed is stored in a register, the coefficient value of the functional formula is sequentially replaced within the change range at the change pitch.

  • Patent number: 5535317
    Abstract: A graph display apparatus includes a plurality of functional formulas to be displayed as graphs and their coordinate ranges are stored in a memory by operating numeric .multidot. symbol keys on a key input unit. The plurality of stored formulas are displayed on a display unit by operating a "list" key. When a plurality of arbitrary formulas are designated and a "synthesis" key is operated, the graphs of the designated formulas are calculated and displayed on a single coordinate system in accordance with coordinate ranges of the formula which is designated first. When the plurality of arbitrary formulas are designated and a "division" key is operated, the functional formulas are displayed on different coordinate systems in accordance with corresponding coordinate ranges. When the graphs of a plurality of input formulas are calculated and displayed, the individual graphs can be appropriately synthesized or divided and can be displayed in comparison with each other.
