Publication number: 20020060483Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide a safety device for car seat which lies down instantaneously and converts a infant, a child, or an old person into a safe stance, reacting with an impact given in a front/rear collision, so as to protect the infant, child or old person safely against the impact in the front/rear collision. To achieve this object, the present invention comprises a seat for infant/child installed on a conventional car seat and lying down with reacting to the impact and sliding forward, a locking member maintaining a normal stance of the seat for infant/child, and a impact reaction member releasing a locking between the seat for infant/child and the locking member as the impact occurs. Therefore, by having the seat for infant/child lain down against the transmitted impact in the front/rear collision, the danger from the impact could be avoided, and thus the infant, child or old person could be protected more safely.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2001Publication date: May 23, 2002Inventors: Toshiya Yoshida, Toshihiko Yoshida

Patent number: 5886278Abstract: A tone waveform reproduction apparatus, for an electronic musical instrument employing a plurality of samples in consonance with tone ranges, that can reduce a change in a timbre so that it will not be noticeable, and that can provide a natural transition of musical tones. An address generator generates a read address for a waveform memory. In the waveform memory are stored waveform data that differ for each timbre and each specific pitch range. A digital filter has a low-pass property and is controlled by a cutoff controller to adjust a timber or a tone quality. The cutoff controller generates a cutoff control signal for compensating for a discontinuity, at a point where tone ranges are switched, of reproduced frequencies of tone signals extracted from the waveform memory, and outputs the cutoff control signal fcn.Type: GrantFiled: November 4, 1997Date of Patent: March 23, 1999Assignee: Kawai Musical Instruments Manufacturing Co., Ltd.Inventor: Toshiya Yoshida

Patent number: 5088030Abstract: In the conventional branch address calculator for an advance control processor, when a branch instruction reaches the execution step, a decision is first made as to whether the branch instruction is conditional or non-conditional, and then a target branch address (logical address) is calculated before the branch instruction is executed, so that the processing speed is slow. To increase the processing speed, a target branch address is previously calculated before a branch instruction reaches the execution step. Since the branch instruction can be executed immediately after the condition of the branch instruction has been decided, it is possible to eliminate the time required to calculate the target branch address after the instruction has reached the execution step.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 1989Date of Patent: February 11, 1992Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventor: Toshiya Yoshida
