  • Patent number: 6455606
    Abstract: A polyurethane foam which is obtained by reacting an addition-polymerizable active hydrogen component comprising a compound having a group containing active hydrogen and an addition-polymerizable functional group or comprising both this compound and a compound containing at least 2.5 groups (on the average) containing active hydrogen and not containing addition-polymerizable functional groups with an organic polyisocyanate in the presence or absence of at least one auxiliary selected from the group consisting of foaming agents and additives to polymerize the addition-polymerizable functional group and simultaneously form a polyurethane, and which has a structure in which the chains formed by the addition polymerization have been cross-linked to the polyurethane chains. The polyurethane foam is useful as a rigid polyurethane foam excellent in hardness, dimensional stability, etc. and usable as a heat insulator, shock-absorbing material, synthetic wood, etc.

  • Patent number: 5883476
    Abstract: A plurality of photo detectors are arranged outside the display screen of a projection display apparatus having a built-in digital convergence correction system and a function for adjusting data in the frame memory so as to coincide the photoelectric devices of the photo detectors with the adjustment patterns is provided. The adjusted data when the convergence on the entire screen of the display is adjusted and the adjusted data when the convergence is adjusted by the adjustment function before misconvergence is generated are memorized beforehand. When misconvergence is generated, the convergence is adjusted by the adjustment function again, and a corresponding correction value is obtained on the photo detector by calculating the adjusted data at this time and the prememorized adjusted data, and a correction value on the entire screen is obtained by executing an interpolation calculation from this correction value, and the misconvergence on the entire screen is corrected.

  • Patent number: 5384600
    Abstract: A television receiver which can display images in different displaying forms on a display screen with an aspect ratio of 16:9 by controlling the video chroma processing circuit by the micro computer by operating the remote controlled signal acceptor or the key switch has memories. The first memory stores video control data for each displaying form and the second memory stores appointed data for designating predetermined video control data. When the displaying form is changed by operating the remote controlled signal acceptor or the key switch, the micro computer reads the video control data corresponding to the displaying form which is newly set from the first memory according to the appointed data of the second memory and changes, for example, the contrast characteristic in the signal processing circuit according to the read data.

  • Patent number: 5181116
    Abstract: In a television receiver in which scanning for an incoming video signal is performed at a frequency n times as high as the input horizontal synchronous frequency by suitably controlling writing and reading on its video memory, the signals for writing and reading on the video memory unit are generated by a horizontal synchronization/deflection circuit. The horizontal synchronization/deflection circuit is arranged by having a clock generation/synchronous deflection circuit for generating reference signals to control the writing and reading on the video memory unit provided with a phase comparator such that a horizontal drive signal to drive a horizontal deflection circuit and a flyback pulse are brought in phase.

  • Patent number: 4924305
    Abstract: A motion detecting circuit is used for a motion-adapted scanning line interpolating circuit in a television system. The motion detecting circuit comprises an inter-frame correlation detecting circuit for detecting and outputting the value of correlation of video signals between adjacent frames, an inter-field correlation detecting circuit for detecting and outputting the value of correlation of signals of corresponding pixels between adjacent fields and an adjusting circuit for adjusting the output of the inter-frame correlation detecting circuit in accordance with the correlation value outputted from the inter-field correlation detecting circuit. An interlace/non-interlace signal converting circuit is also provided with the motion detecting circuit.
