Abstract: The use is described of rigid foam cores in panels, especially doors, of the kind comprising a foam core (22) between two molded skins (8,10). The weather-resistance, especially the resistance to thermally-induced bowing, of such panels is improved by forming the panel of at least one vacuum-formed thermoplastics skin (8,10) adhesively bonded to a substantially open-cell, rigid foam core (22). If the foam has frangible cell walls, it can be conformed to accommodate the depressed zones of a molded overlying door skin (8,10) by crumbling under compression, with fracture of the cell walls to accommodate the zones. A preferred open-cell rigid foam is a phenolic foam reinforced with finely divided particulate filler.

Abstract: A mechanism for projecting projection
images (40A to 40G) representing a model-extracting
region and an imaged region is
provided inside an imaging section (1) of an
image processor. A control section (2)
receives an image from the imaging section
(1), calculates a density deviation in the
model-extracting region, and outputs the
results of the calculation to a level display
section (27). The operator positions the
imaging section (1) so that the projection
images (40A, 40B, 40C) representing the
model-extracting region may be sharply
projected on a pattern to be registered and a
high level value may be displayed on the
level display section (27). When the operator
depresses a teach button switch (30), the
image data in the model-extracting region at
this time is registered as a model image.

Abstract: A method of forming a laterally-varying charge profile in a silicon carbide substrate includes the steps of forming a silicon nitride layer on a polysilicon layer formed on the silicon carbide substrate, and patterning the silicon nitride layer to provide a plurality of silicon nitride layer segments which are spaced apart in the lateral direction and which are provided with openings therebetween which are of varying widths. The polysilicon layer is oxidized using the layer segments as an oxidation mask to form a silicon dioxide layer of varying thickness from the polysilicon layer and to form a polysilicon layer portion therebeneath of varying thickness. The silicon dioxide layer and silicon nitride layer segments are removed, and a dopant is ion implanted into the silicon carbide substrate using the polysilicon layer portion of varying thickness as an implantation mask to form a laterally-varying charge profile in the silicon carbide substrate. This method provides an effective and commercially-feasible technique for forming various high-power lateral semiconductor devices, including MOSFET, JFET, diode and IGBT structures, with excellent high-temperature and high-power operating characteristics.

efficiency of encoding the image signals is low. 
     In the encoding apparatus, the image signals provided in units of frames, each
having a plurality of pixel data items, are divided into macro groups, and the pixel data
items in each macro group are combined, forming a group. The pixel data items of the
group are encoded on the basis of the level data representing the signal level of the
representative pixel data item in the group, the position data concerning all pixel data
items of the group and the data representing the number of the pixel data items
existing in the group.
