Abstract: A method of reading document image data and transferring the image data to a data reception apparatus, includes setting memory areas for storing the image data in a data storage section and setting a reading condition, upon receipt of a scan start command; transmitting the scan start command for instructing the scanner apparatus to start operations; instructing the scanner apparatus to transmit the image data to a transfer data storage section; transferring the image data in the transfer data storage section to the data storage section in response to a data transferring request command; transmitting a document end signal to the data storage section; executing feeding of subsequent document sheets, without transmitting another scan start command; determining whether distance from a rear end is a predetermined length or more, and an available space is a predetermined amount or more; and controlling a feeding section based on determination results.

Abstract: A diaphragm is provided with a plurality of thick portions radially from an inner circumferential side to an outer circumferential side. The thick portions are composed of at least two kinds having different lengths in a radiation direction and formed to be gradually thinner in the radiation direction from the inner circumferential side to the outer circumferential side. With this configuration, separate vibrations in the diaphragm can be suppressed. Further, a speaker device provided with the diaphragm having the above-described configuration can reproduce sounds faithfully in accordance with input signals.

Abstract: An image reading system includes a scanner apparatus and a data reception apparatus. The data reception apparatus has a receiving section receiving image data transferred from the scanner apparatus, a received data storage section storing the image data received in the receiving section, and a driver program executing section executing a driver program for operating the scanner apparatus to transmit a scan start command. The scanner apparatus has a feeding section feeding an original document sheet to a predetermined reading position, a reading sensor reading an image of the original document sheet fed by the feeding section, a transfer data storage section storing image data from the reading sensor, a transfer section transferring the image data stored in the transfer data storage section to the data reception apparatus, and a scanner control section controlling the feeding section and the reading sensor.

Abstract: In a method of reading document image data scanned by a scanner apparatus, upon receipt of a scan start command from the data reception apparatus, memory areas are set for storing image data in a data storage section of the data reception apparatus to set a reading condition; a scan start command is transmitted to start reading operations; the scanner apparatus is instructed to transmit the image data, to receive and store the image data in the data storage section; the image data is transferred to the data reception apparatus in response to a data transferring request command from a host apparatus; a document end signal received from the scanner apparatus is transmitted to the data storage section; and subsequent original document sheets are fed based on available status of the data storage section, without transmitting another scan start command.

Abstract: A surface acoustic wave device includes a pair of reflectors and an interdigital transducer having a cross electrode having a interdigitated portion and a dummy portion and a dummy electrode. The dummy electrode has a length different from the length of the dummy portion of the cross electrode arranged adjacent to the dummy electrode.

Abstract: An acoustic wave device includes a ladder-type filter in which resonators are connected in a ladder configuration. In the acoustic wave device, series-connected resonators are connected in a parallel line in the ladder-type filter, and the resonators connected in the parallel line have mutually different resonance frequencies.

Abstract: It is an object of the invention to provide an image reading system enabling a plurality of image original document sheets to be consecutively read at high speed. A scanner apparatus has a feeding section that feeds an original document sheet to a predetermined reading position, a reading sensor that reads an image of the original document sheet fed by the feeding section, a transfer data storage section that stores image data from the reading sensor, a transfer section that transfers the image data stored in the transfer data storage section to the data reception apparatus, and a scanner control section that controls the feeding section and the reading sensor.

Abstract: A suspension with a plurality of roll sections each of which has a semi-cylindrical shape from a cross-section view. The roll sections are disposed side by side based on a straight line connecting two points on an inner periphery or an outer periphery. The roll sections form a closed loop in a manner that a roll section of the roll sections being disposed first adjoins a roll section of the roll sections being disposed last. Adjacent roll sections are coupled with each other through a boundary section forming a continuous three dimensional curved surface. A linearity of compliance improves, and generation of distortion or rolling is restricted using the suspension.

Abstract: A smaller-sized and acoustically excellent speaker diaphragm is inexpensively provided using the mixture of a specially surface-coated woody material and a mass-producible synthetic resin. The mixture is composed of a non-chlorinated synthetic resin and a powdery cellulose material whose particle size falls within a range of from 5 ?m to 500 ?m. The cellulose material has been subjected to a surface treatment to enhance its affinity to the non-chlorinated synthetic resin, and 30% to 70% by weight of the cellulose material is contained in the mixture.

Abstract: A smaller-sized speaker cabinet developed in this invention is made of a mixture that is composed of a woody cellulose powder of proper physical properties and a synthetic resin blended with this powder. The resin is a non-chlorinated resin, and the cellulose powder consists of particles whose diameters are included in a range from about 5 ?m to 500 ?m. The cellulose powder is surface-treated to increase affinity for the resin, so that efficient manufacture of the cabinets of improved acoustic performance is now possible.

The roll sections (1b) are disposed side by side based on a straight line connecting two points on an inner periphery or an outer periphery. The roll sections (1b) form a closed loop in a manner that a roll section (1b) of the roll sections (1b) being disposed first adjoins a roll section (1b) of the roll sections (1b) being disposed last. Adjacent roll sections (1b) are coupled with each other through a boundary section (2) forming a continuous three dimensional curved surface. A linearity of compliance improves, and generation of distortion or rolling is restricted using the suspension (1a).
