The invention relates to a method and a device for transmitting information symbols using a plurality of carriers, wherein a first transmission symbol is produced (52, 54) on the basis of an information symbol. A second transmission symbol is also produced (52, 54) on the basis of the same information symbol, wherein the second transmission symbol differs from the first transmission symbol. The first and second transmission symbols are modulated (56) on a carrier and transmitted (62) at different intervals. The invention further relates to a method and a device for receiving information symbols represented by the first and second information symbols, wherein both transmission symbols received are used in order to extract the information symbol contained in both transmission symbols.

A developer container includes a casing, a conveying member, a conveying-member accommodating unit, and a supporting member. The casing extends in a longitudinal direction and has a developer accommodating chamber and a waste-developer accommodating chamber and a first opening. The developer accommodating chamber accommodates developer therein. The waste-developer accommodating chamber accommodates waste developer therein. The first opening provides fluid communication between the developer accommodating chamber and outside of the casing. The casing has a first end and a second end opposite the first end in the longitudinal direction. The conveying member is configured to convey the waste developer in a conveying direction defined to be directed from the first end to the second end. The conveying-member accommodating unit is configured to accommodate the conveying member therein. The conveying-member accommodating unit has an upstream end portion and a downstream end portion in the conveying direction. The conveying-member accommodating unit has a second opening and a third opening. The second opening is provided in the upstream end portion and provides fluid communication between inside of the conveying-member accommodating unit and outside of the conveying-member accommodating unit. The third opening provides fluid communication between the inside of the conveying-member accommodating unit and the waste-developer accommodating chamber. The supporting member is provided on the casing. The supporting member supports the conveying-member accommodating unit such that the conveying-member accommodating unit is movable in directions perpendicular to the longitudinal direction relative to the casing.

A gas turbine combustion apparatus has a plurality of combustors provided in a circumferential direction within a turbine casing chamber formed by a casing, each combustor comprising a combustor inner tube and a combustor transition pipe, but lacks a turbine bypass mechanism for controlling the amount of compressed air discharged from a compressor into the turbine casing chamber. The combustion apparatus comprises an exhaust port member fitted into a manhole opening in the casing and communicating with the outside of the turbine casing chamber, bleeding pipes for uniformly bleeding compressed air discharged into the turbine casing chamber, a circular pipe for recovering compressed air bled by the bleeding pipes and discharging the compressed air to the exhaust port member, and an opening and closing valve for controlling the amount of exhaust which the circular pipe discharges to the outside of the turbine casing chamber via the exhaust port member, thereby possessing a turbine bypass mechanism.

A side window roller blind is provided. The roller blind includes a support rod having a free end connected to a tension bar. In order to prevent rattling noises, the ends of the tension bar are provided with rollers that contact the window pane such that the support rod is elastically bent during extension of the blind. In addition, the window blind is provided with aligning aids that prevent the tension bar from hitting on the slot edges during retraction of the blind, and from blocking additional retraction, due to vibrations about the longitudinal axis of the tension bar.

According to the invention, techniques for detecting and recovering from errors occurring in disk drive subsystems having a controller and drive units connected by a fibre channel loop. Specific embodiments can provide storage subsystems, methods and apparatus for use in information processing environments, for example. Embodiments can determine when each drive is disconnected from the loop in the external storage subsystem structured by using the FC Loop, and thereupon, the FC Loop can be controlled by bridging the communication path using the PBC so that the loop is not broken.

The inkjet recording apparatus comprises: a recording head including nozzles which discharge ink droplets onto a recording medium for printing; a computing device which computes a non-operational time period for one of the nozzles; a calculating device which calculates a predicted non-operational time period until a next operation of the one of the nozzles; and a preliminary discharge control device which performs control whereby preliminary discharge of the one of the nozzles is carried out if a total of the non-operational time period and the predicted non-operational time period exceeds a reference time period.
