Abstract:
The invention is directed to an engaging mechanism. The engaging mechanism comprises a cam element which moves upon modification of an engaging position, a cam follower abutted against a cam surface of the cam element, a detecting element for detecting a position of the cam follower, and a section to be detected provided on the cam follower, for giving at least three different kinds of output values to the detecting element.
Abstract:
A portable radio apparatus comprising a first housing body having at least a key operation pad with a plurality of keys, and a second housing body connected to the first housing body in such a manner that they are freely opened and closed with each other. The key operation pad of the first housing body is covered with the second housing body, when necessary. The second housing body is provided with an opening or a push button so that at least one key is operated in a state in which the first and second housing bodies are closed.
Abstract:
A portable radio apparatus includes a housing, a receiver unit, a transmitter unit, and a hinge member. The housing has a longitudinally elongated, thin, rectangular parallelepiped shape. The receiver unit is arranged on one surface side of an upper portion of the housing to be located inside the housing. The transmitter unit is arranged on the same surface side of a lower portion of the housing as that of the receiver unit to be located outside the housing. The hinge member pivotally supports an upper end portion of the transmitter unit with respect to the housing. When the transmitter unit is pivoted through a predetermined angle, a lower end portion of the transmitter unit is unfolded to form a mount gap between the lower end portion and the housing.
Abstract:
A magnetic reproducing device such as a VTR, DAT, or the like reproduces recorded information from inclined tracks on a magnetic tape, having auxiliary information, such as address information, recorded in areas in the inclined tracks, includes a rotary magnetic head rotatable for successively scanning the tracks on the magnetic tape to generate a reproduced signal representative of the auxiliary information. A pulse signal is generated having pulses in synchronism with each rotation of the rotary magnetic head through a predetermined angle. Window pulses used subsequently to extract the auxiliary information in the areas from the reproduced signal are generated based on the pulse signal.
Abstract:
A highly efficient coding apparatus is configured to divide a digital picture signal into picture blocks and, based on a signal from a coding circuit for performing variable-length coding of each picture block, generate an output signal in the form of serial sync blocks. By inserting the most significant bit of a coded output signal for each picture element in a predetermined position of each sync block, a reproduced picture is obtained in a picture search mode in which a magnetic head scans a video tape across a plurality of tracks.
