Patent number: 7929687Abstract: A facsimile apparatus can notify a user of the fact that facsimile data being received is sent from a specific party. A communication control part receives facsimile data and party information from a remote facsimile apparatus, the party information identifying the remote facsimile apparatus. A melody output part stores and outputs a call-notification-melody so as to output the reproduced call-notification-melody through a speaker. A specific party discrimination part stores specific party information regarding a specific party for which the call-notification-melody is output. A system control part cases the melody output part to reproduce and output the call-notification-melody stored when the party information which the communication control part acquired matches the specific party information stored in the specific party discrimination part at a time of reception of a call.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2007Date of Patent: April 19, 2011Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventor: Nobuhiro Itoh

Patent number: 5560236Abstract: In a rolling and cutting method for an endless hot-rolled steel strip comprising continuous hot rolling and joining rough-rolled slabs to each other with a joint having a boundary between slabs, subjecting the joined rough-rolled strip continuously to hot finish rolling to obtain an endless hot-rolled steel strip with a joint having a boundary between strips, cutting the endless hot-rolled steel strip immediately before coiling, and coiling each cut strip into a coil, the endless hot-rolled steel strip being cut such that the boundary between two successive slabs or sheets is positioned on the radially outermost face of the coil; the target cut point is set relative to the boundary by applying the tracking error of the boundary and the cutting control error for ensuring that the target cut point is accurately positioned on the radially outermost surface of the coil; the strip is kept from breaking at the boundary when coiled, and the coil as a final product can be produced with minimum scrap.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 1994Date of Patent: October 1, 1996Assignee: Kawasaki Steel CorporationInventors: Soichiro Onda, Nobuhiro Itoh, Toshio Imazeki, Toshisada Takechi

Patent number: 4833390Abstract: A charge completion detector comprises a thermoelectric detecting element outputting a thermally generated electromotive force in correspondence with the rise of temperature incidental to the completion of charging a secondary cell, and detecting means electrically connected to the thermoelectric detecting element for detecting the thermally generated electromotive force generated in the thermoelectric detecting element. The thermoelectric detecting element comprises a base material of semiconductive ceramics and a plurality of pairs of electrodes formed spaced apart from each other by a prescribed distance on the base material for forming hot junctions and cold junctions. A heat radiating member is thermally coupled to the cold junctions of the base material. The temperature of the hot junction side thermally coupled to the secondary cell will be approximately the same as that of the secondary cell while the temperature of the cold junction side is kept at an environmental temperature.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 1988Date of Patent: May 23, 1989Assignee: Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd.Inventors: Akira Kumada, Michihiro Murata, Nobuhiro Itoh, Norimitsu Kitoh
