Publication number: 20150145789Abstract: The present invention aims at reducing noise caused by driving of the display panel while reducing a drop in the output rate of coordinates representing an object to be drawn. A coordinate output device receives a horizontal synchronization signal of a display panel from a display panel control unit and starts to detect touch location on the touch panel after a prescribed length of time has passed from the initial rise of the horizontal synchronization signal. The coordinate output device detects coordinates representing touch location in accordance with a signal outputted from the touch panel and performs a generation process to generate coordinates based on three consecutive detected coordinates. The coordinate output device outputs coordinate data having the detected coordinates and the generated coordinates to a control unit as coordinates from a period when three of the generated coordinates were detected.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 23, 2013Publication date: May 28, 2015Applicant: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Osamu Nishida, Teruhisa Masui, Masayuki Fujisawa

Patent number: 6327892Abstract: The present invention provides a measuring apparatus and method for measuring the quantity of ventilation, whereby the quantity of ventilation correlates to the heating characteristics. [The present invention is also] able to measure the quantity of ventilation of a gas permeable packing material used in heating packets in a short period of time, regardless of the type or pore diameter of the packing material. The present invention provides heating packets displaying stable heating characteristics. In the present invention, one surface of a gas permeable packing material is exposed to the atmosphere, while the opposite surface is scavenged with a carrier gas which does not include oxygen. The present invention measures the oxygen diffusing capacity, [as the diffusion of oxygen] from the atmosphere through the gas permeable packing material, by measuring the concentration of oxygen in the carrier gas after scavenging.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 1999Date of Patent: December 11, 2001Assignee: Japan Pionics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yoshihiko Koiso, Naoto Wagatsuma, Yoshiki Matsumoto, Masayuki Fujisawa, Koichi Yata, Kohshi Ochi
