  • Patent number: 6229101
    Abstract: A substrate for mounting an electronic part and a method for producing the same, which allows a conductive pin to be inserted and secured in a through hole without exerting any damage thereto. The substrate for mounting an electronic part is formed of a through hole piercing an insulating substrate and a conductive pin with its head inserted into the through hole. The head of the conductive pin is provided with a plurality of projections to its side wall, each projecting radially in 4 or more directions. Those projections form a plurality of pairs, each of which is extending in an opposite direction from an axial center of the head. Those projection pairs include a primary projection pair having a largest length and a secondary projection pair having a second largest length. The length of the primary projection pair is equal to or more than an inside diameter of the through hole. The length of the secondary projection pair is less than the inside diameter of the through hole.

  • Patent number: 5255134
    Abstract: An auto-tracking system for a helical scan type magnetic recording/reproducing unit comprises a synchronizing signal separating circuit from video signals on a running magnetic tape reproduced by a rotary video head, a periodicity variation measuring and comparing circuit in the synchronizing signals separated in the synchronizing signal separating circuit, and a tracking control means which controls the running condition of the magnetic tape with reference to a phase difference between a reference signal in association with the rotary video head and a signal representing the running condition of the magnetic tape and changes tracking by a predetermined amount in response to the periodicity variation measured by the measuring and comparing circuit so as to minimize the periodicity variation measured by the same, thereby an optimum tracking position is obtained without being interfered by cross-talks between the adjacent tracks.

  • Patent number: 5057949
    Abstract: A magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus having a construction in which a digital signal including index signals recorded on a magnetic tape is reproduced and rotary magnetic heads are movable. The digital signal is reproduced by digital signal reproducing means including the rotary magnetic heads. A particular index signal among the index signals is detected by index signal detecting means. Further, the timing for reproducing the particular index signal is detected by timing detecting means. The rotary magnetic heads are moved and deviated in the direction of the rotary shaft of the rotary cylinder by rotary magnetic head position deviating means. Tape speed detecting means compares a reproduction clock with a reference clock and outputs a tape speed signal. First rotary magnetic head position deviation control means forms a control input for the rotary magnetic head position deviating means on the basis of the tape speed signal.

  • Patent number: 4912571
    Abstract: A memory controlling apparatus for a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus which records and reproduces a field image signal in each read or write cycle performed by a video head for reproducing the image signal from a magnetic tape, and by a video head position detector for detecting the position of the video head. A reference circuit obtains a signal defining a reference timing which is independent of the position of the video head and which is also used to determine the phase of the video head. A memory is provided having storage sufficient to store the field image signal, and a controller is provided for controlling the operation of reading and writing the image signal from and into the memory.

  • Patent number: 4774598
    Abstract: In a slow-motion device of a helical scan type video tape recorder, detection is effected to detect a noise in a reproduced signal which is caused when the magnetic tape is fed such that the magnetic heads which have reproduced a preceding still image at a track transfer to the succeeding track and thereafter the magnetic heads scan the succeeding track, and the position of the magnetic tape is controlled by a tape control system so that the noise is confined within a position at a noise bar due to the noise is prevented from being displayed on the reproduction screen.

  • Patent number: 4737864
    Abstract: A still picture reproducing system for a magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus is disclosed. The system sends one frame in order to shift a reproduction mode from ordinary reproduction to reproduction of a still picture by use of so-called "fine slow", sends one more frame if a noise is detected on a picture at this time, and stops if no noise is detected.

  • Patent number: 4543516
    Abstract: Disclosed is a speed and phase control system for a moving apparatus driven by an electric motor, or the like, and provided with a speed control system for controlling the moving apparatus to an initially set speed, a phase control system for synchronizing the phase of the moving apparatus with a reference signal, and an error correction device storing therein a target value of and for comparing an actual speed or a phase of the moving apparatus with the target value to detect an error therebetween to thereby correct the initially set value in accordance with the error, whereby control is made such that the moving apparatus is operated at the target value of speed and phase thereof. Further, the error correction device is cut off from the speed control system when the speed reaches a value near the target value and at the same time the operation of the phase control system is started.
