  • Patent number: 4653601
    Abstract: In an electric power steering system, a d.c. motor is drivingly connected to a steering shaft with a steering for generating an assisting power to rotate the steering shaft. Independently of an alternator for charging a battery, a d.c. generator driven by a vehicle engine is dedicated for supplying an electric power to the d.c. motor. A control circuit is responsive to a signal representing a manual torque applied to the steering and reads out one of objective values from a memory. The control circuit is further responsive to a fed-back signal indicative of a load applied to the d.c. motor and controls electric current flowing across a field coil of the d.c. generator in such a manner that the difference between the read-out objective value and the fed-back signal becomes zero.

  • Patent number: 4611345
    Abstract: There has been proposed in prior art an identification device which identifies the denomination of a bank bill from the numerical figures thereon; however, it is of a simple type which recognizes the numerical figures by the variation of the light level reflected from the portion of a note having such numerical figures printed thereon by means of a sensor to thereby identify the denomination thereof. The device is detrimental in that a note is erroneously identified due to stains on the note. It is not quite practically usable as it is necessary to convey a note with one of the edges thereof placed under a strict control so that the numerical portion thereof should be surely passed through the sensoring position. According to this invention, one-dimensional image sensors are provided over the numerical portion on both sides of a note, signals output from the image sensors in time serial are encoded and characteristic signals for the numerical figures on the note are formed.

  • Patent number: 4525499
    Abstract: A non-aqueous dispersion type resin composition comprising (I) a non-polar or slightly polar aliphatic hydrocarbon solvent as a dispersion medium, and (II) particles stably dispersed in the dispersion medium, wherein each of said particles is composed of:(A) from 20 to 70% by weight of a disperse particle made of (a) a polyester-modified vinyl copolymer containing a hydroxyl group, (b) a vinyl copolymer containing a hydroxyl group or (c) a vinyl ester-modified vinyl copolymer containing a hydroxyl group, and(B) from 80 to 30% by weight of a vinyl resin dispersion stabilizer surrounding the disperse particle as a protective layer, which has a component compatible with the disperse particle or is chemically bonded thereto and which is solvated by the dispersion medium, said dispersion stabilizer being composed of (i) an N-alkoxymethylated monomer of an .alpha., .beta.-monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid amide and (ii) an .alpha., .beta.

  • Patent number: 4306260
    Abstract: A magnetic head for recording and reproducing signals by the cores incorporated in two sliders disposed on both sides of a flexible magnetic disc, wherein the two sliders are supported respectively on gimbal flexures having omnidirectional degrees of freedom, one of the two sliders is pressed against the flexible magnetic disc by means of a loading spring, and the other slider is fixed in the optimal position relative to the disc in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the disc.

  • Patent number: 4219587
    Abstract: Pigment-coated phosphors which may be used in the production of a cathode-ray tube of a high contrast for a color television receiver can be produced by adding a pigment and an anionic polymer emulsion to an aqueous suspension of a phosphor and then making the system neutral or weakly acidic or adding a cationic polymer emulsion or carrying out both of these steps so that the phosphor and the pigment may be coated with the polymer.
