Abstract: A data recording/reproducing apparatus includes a first power source unit which generates necessary electric power signals from a commercial power source, and a second power source unit which generates a necessary electric power signal from the commercial power source. When a user issues an instruction to interrupt the operation of the power source of the apparatus, the generation of the electric power signal of the first power source unit is stopped, and the electric power is supplied to at least two of a control unit for controlling switching of operation states of the apparatus, a reception unit for receiving a manipulation instruction, and a display unit for displaying thereon data relating to the operation state from the second power source unit.

Abstract: An erasable image forming material includes a color former, a developer, and a binder resin, the color former containing Crystal Violet Lactone and a specific fluorane compound can enhance light fastness as well as heat decolorizing performance.

Abstract: A protective tape used for optical member comprising a plastic film base, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed on one side of the plastic film base and a treated layer formed on an opposite side of the plastic film base, wherein the treated layer has a structure in which a copolymer (A) including (a) an alkyl (meth)acrylate having an alkyl group with carbon numbers of 8 to 20; (b) (meth)acrylonitrile; and (c) a monomer having functional groups copolymerizable with the component (a) and the component (b), as copolymerization components, is cross-linked by a cross-linking agent. The protective tape used for optical member is enabled to direct print with an ink on the treated layer and have a low adhesive property with the pressure-sensitive adhesive applied to an optical film and have a solvent resistance.

Abstract: A signal recording/reproducing apparatus includes a first power source unit which generates necessary electric power signals from a commercial power source, a second power source unit which generates a necessary electric power signal from a battery, a recording signal processing unit, and a reproduced signal processing unit. The apparatus further includes time measuring instrument which is supplied with the electric power from the second power source unit, and a charging unit which charges the battery with the electric charges. Whenever the time measuring instrument measures a predetermined time, the generation of the electric power signals from the first power source unit is started, and the battery is charged with the electric charges by the charging unit.

Abstract: A decolorable image forming material contains a color former and a developer, that develop a colored state through interaction therebetween and can be decolored by heating or contact with a solvent, in which the developer contains two or more compounds whose deference in molecular weight is 15 or more.

Abstract: A mail server and mail terminals are connected through a radio communication network. The mail server makes viral infection decision of if e-mails are infected with computer virus without burdening the mail terminals having poor processing power. The mail terminals are constructed to serve as small-sized mail terminals. When an e-mail arrives at the mail server through the Internet, the mail server decides if the e-mail is infected with virus. The result of the viral infection decision is added as the whole or a part of inspection information within the header of the e-mail. The corresponding mail terminal can detect presence or absence of viral infection on the basis of the inspection information. When the e-mail is infected with virus, the mail terminal can inform a user of the contaminated e-mail by making tone of a buzzer or vibrator different from a normal e-mail.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system for performing procedures to request repair, without troubling the driver, when a car breaks down, as well as various onboard peripheral apparatuses and cellular phone used for this system. This system comprises an onboard peripheral apparatus having a failure detector, an onboard main controller for managing car information, a cellular phone which can make wireless connection to the onboard main controller, and a response center for receiving requests for car repairs and maintenance and making arrangements therefor. When a failure is detected, repair request is transmitted to the response center through wireless communication together with the user ID of the driver. Based on this request, the response center acquires remedy information from a car manufacturer and makes arrangements for repair and provides this remedy information to a repair shop.
