Combined keypad and protective cover

Abstract: A mechanical keypad is attached to the outside of a protective cover. A switch allows a personal intelligent communicator to be operated either with the user interface of a mobile telephone handset or with a graphical user interface. When the cover is closed, the mechanical keypad serves for dialing telephone numbers. When the cover is open, the mechanical keypad is disabled, and the graphical user interface is revealed. The microphone and speaker of the personal intelligent communicator together operate as a speaker phone when the cover is open, and as a mobile telephone handset when the cover is closed. By use of an override switch, the personal intelligent communicator can also operate as a speaker phone when the cover is open.

Picture input device

Abstract: PURPOSE: To enable a user to use a device without the anxiety about his privacy by validating a function with only user's direct mechanical operation and giving such structure that the function invalidating operation is automatically performed after the end of work. CONSTITUTION: When starting the use, the user grasps a cover knob part 6 to slide a cover part 2 upward. When the cover part 2 is fully pulled up, an iron plate 5 is attracted to an electromagnet 4, and the cover part 2 is kept open. A picture input part 1 is validated by this operation, and the user can start photographing a picture. When he will terminate the use of the picture input device, he grasps the cover knob part 6 to pull down the cover part 2 or the operation of the electromagnet 4 is stopped based on the support signal from a host computer. Thus, the electromagnet 4 loses the attraction, and the cover part 2 falls downward by its own weight and is moved to the position to shield the picture input part 1. The direct mechanical force is required to open the cover, and the start of operation without user's knowledge doesn't occur.

In the Active Voice

Abstract: By now, you've noticed the Journal's new cover. It lists all of the articles contained in this issue instead of a selected few, and, as promised, the “old blue” is gone—each month the Journal will be a different color so that readers can differentiate issues at a glance. In many ways, the cover epitomizes what we are trying to achieve through redesign and reconfiguration of content and through renewed commitment to our vision. What is that vision? We want the Journal to be accessible and reader friendly and to offer high-quality articles dealing with all aspects of physical therapy. Credibility and readability are not mutually exclusive. They enhance each other. Our cover should reflect who and what we are. But the cover is only the packaging.…
