Filed:

Aug 23, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/645016

Inventors:

Michael W. Brennan - Hidden Hills CA
William G. Read - La Canada CA
William S. Read - Glendale CA

Assignee:

Logical Imaging Solutions, Inc. - Santa Ana CA

International Classification:

B41J 204

US Classification:

347 55

Abstract:

A curved print head is used for generating charged particles at a number of apertures and emitting those charged particles from the apertures to a cylindrical drum. The print head has a radius of curvature larger than the radius of curvature of the drum. The difference in the radius of curvature of the print head and the radius of curvature of the drum is limited by the variation in electric field strength deposited on the drum across the width of the print head.

Appl. No.:

6/246853

Inventors:

William A. Read - Fremont CA

International Classification:

B60R 2508

US Classification:

180287

Abstract:

Electric disabling circuits and components are provided for preventing theft or unauthorized use of motor vehicles. An auxiliary electrical switch is mounted on the housing of the ignition or starter key cylinder, and is connected to a fuse in the main electrical circuit. When the key cylinder is removed and the ignition or starter switch is shorted, this auxiliary switch causes the fuse to blow out and disable the electrical system in the vehicle. The ignition or starter switch actuates a relay, which in turn is connected to a valve mechanism in the fuel line and the ignition coil or starter through independent circuits. Actuation of the relay causes electrical power to be delivered to the fuel valve and ignition coil or starter. When the relay is de-actuated, the ignition coil is grounded, and the vehicle cannot be started with a jumper wire. A further switch is provided for disabling the relay.
