Abstract: Disclosed is a pivotal movement control device for a boom-equipped working machine provided with a pivotal movement control responsive to the inclined angle of a control lever and a position detector for detecting the moved position of a boom in a lateral direction. The device includes a changeover switch for changing between an automatic mode and a manual mode, an automatic target position stop control for storing a signal from the position detector as a target stop position when the changeover switch is changed from the manual mode to the automatic mode and pivotally moving the boom to the target stop position and stopping it there while reading a positional signal from the position, when the boom is at a position other than the target stop position and the control lever is operated to the side of the target stop position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of recording on a rewritable recording medium using a laser beam capable of producing at least three discreet levels of power. The three levels of power used for writing to the recording medium is greater than the power required for reading. The present method is unique in that the power level of the laser beam is modulated between high, intermediate, and low levels over a time period so that at least three discreet power levels are radiated to the recording medium during recording. The increment of the radiation energy of the upward pulse from the intermediate level toward the high level is within the range of 0.8 to 1.2 times the decrement of the radiation energy of the downward pulse from the intermediate level to the low level. The present invention provides high density recording capability with minimum non-erasure areas even when the recording medium is formed from a high velocity crystallization (high speed erasure).

Abstract: A method of recording information by changing a recording medium through irradiation with an energy beam such as a light beam, electron beam or the like. A single pulse or a plurality of pulses are employed for forming recorded dots. The pulse has a pulse width shorter than a time required for the center of energy beam spot to move from one to other end of the dot upon recording thereof. By virtue of the possibility of reversible change even in a recording film susceptible to high rate speed of change, the rate of information transfer can be increased. Overwrite recording can also be accomplished with the single laser beam. An increased amount of information can be handled in the recording and reproduction.

Abstract: An optical information recording carrier which comprises an information recording film susceptible to a change in atomic arrangement upon exposure to a recording beam, a first transparent film for preventing diffusion of heat generated in the recording film upon exposure to the recording beam and provided on each side of the recording film, a second transparent film for diffusing the heat in the in-plane direction of the film and provided on at least one outside thereof, and an organic member further provided on at least one outside thereof, the recording beam being irradiated onto the recording film through the organic member has distinguished characteristics of repeated recordings and erasings.

Abstract: An information recording method and apparatus therefor utilizes an information recording medium having a recording film enabling reversible phase change. The information recording medium is irradiated with an energy beam while relatively moving the information recording medium and the energy beam so as to at least enable recording of information in accordance with phase state changes of the recording film caused by irradiation of the energy beam. The energy beam is modulated so that an intensity of the energy beam obtains a first level having a high power for one portion of coded data information to be recorded, obtains a second level different from the first level for a predetermined time for another portion of the coded data information, and then again obtains the first level to enable recording of the coded data information independently of a previous recording state on the information recording medium.

Abstract: In an information recording apparatus according to this invention, since it is not necessary to dispose any differential circuit, which was required heretofore, it is possible to fabricate it with a low cost and its error rate is also very small.Furthermore, since the mean reflectivity on the recording track does almost not vary by the fact that information is recorded there, no tracking off-set or focusing off-set is produced. Thus effects of this invention are remarkable.
