  • Patent number: 8813148
    Abstract: A PC (11) of the present invention comprises a one-segment broadcast tuner (16), a display output I/F (18) for transmitting, to a TV (21), data of a broadcast program received by the one-segment broadcast tuner (16), and a PC-side relay coordination control section (14) for transmitting a channel code for (i) causing the TV (21) to receive, via a digital tuner (26) or an analog tuner (27), a broadcast program containing same content as the broadcast program being received by the one-segment broadcast tuner (16), and (ii) causing the TV (21) to output data of the broadcast program. Therefore, in a case where an output of the TV (21) is switched from the broadcast program being received by the one-segment broadcast tuner (16) to the broadcast program being received by the digital tuner (26) or the analog tuner (27), a user of the PC (11) can continuously watch a broadcast program containing same content as before the output switching.

  • Patent number: 5122729
    Abstract: A power supply device has a primary coil, a detection coil and a controller. The detection coil detects and outputs as a change in induction voltage any load fluctuation resulting from change in distance between the primary coil and a secondary coil. The controller controls, based on the change in the induction voltage output by the detection coil, an output of an oscillation circuit to hold power supplied to the secondary coil to a constant level. Therefore, even if the distance between the primary coil and the secondary coil changes, power supplied to battery connected to the secondary coil is stable. In particular, when the distance between the primary coil and the secondary coil becomes far, the controller increases the output of the oscillation circuit.

  • Patent number: 5021892
    Abstract: An image processing device for controlling data transfer includes an image scanner, an image printer, a facsimile control unit, bus lines for data transfer, a bidirectional parallel interface unit, and a main CPU in a housing. The device is connected to an external data processing device through the parallel interface unit. In addition to the functions which are obtained independent from the external data processing device, the image processing device realizes various kinds of functions by controlling the image scanner, the image printer facsimile control unit and the interface unit by the main CPU in response to commands from the data processing device. As a result, various kinds of image processing functions are carried out.
