Abstract: The invention discloses a reflective liquid
crystal display device comprising a polarizer, a
retardation film, a front scattering film layer, and
a liquid crystal cell having a mirror reflector, in
which the front scattering film layer includes at
least one film of which scattering angle range is
asymmetrical to the normal direction of film. In
other feature of the invention, plural front
scattering films of which scattering angle range is
asymmetrical to the film normal are laminated so that
the projection direction onto the film surface in the
central angle direction of the scattering angle range
may be different. 
     In a different feature of the invention, at
least one of the scattering films for composing the
scattering film layer is a front scattering film for
scattering more strongly the transmission light from
the second incident angle region not containing the
film normal direction than the transmission light
from the first incident angle region containing the
film normal direction. 
     By such anisotropy of scattering
characteristics of scattering films, the reflective
liquid crystal display device which is bright, high
in contrast and suppressed in blurry image is
presented.

Abstract: A furniture unit composed of two bedsprings (11,15) which,
in the folded position, acts as sofa or single bed; by
rotating the extra bed (11,47), which, in the folded
position, is arranged upside down below the sofa (15,46,54),
the lower bed is arranged above the sofa in a bunk-bed
configuration. The ladder (60) and the associated barrier
are folded up and hinged horizontally to the rear long side
of the second bed (11,47) when the second bed is not being
used; during conversion into a bunk bed, they rotate
together with the bed and are arranged on the outer side
thereon. The ladder (60), by rotating about two pivots, is
arranged vertically, acting as ladder and as support for the
open unit, and the safety barrier of the upper bed rises as
the ladder, to which it is articulated, rotates. By
performing the operations in reverse, the piece of furniture

Filed: 1998-11-06
Abstract: Dielectric parts 12 which become resonators are fitted in holes formed in a dielectric
substrate 11 and magnetic parts 13 for setting resonance frequencies of the dielectric parts
12 are also fitted in holes formed in the dielectric substrate 11. With such construction in
which the dielectric parts are fitted in the holes of the dielectric substrate, the physical
preciseness of a high frequency filter is improved. Further, by fitting not only the dielectric
parts 12 but also the magnetic parts 13 in the holes of the dielectric substrate 11, it is
possible to form the high frequency filter operating in a frequency band of several tens
GHz as a micro wave integrated circuit to thereby improve the uniformality and mass-producibility
of the high frequency filter.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing 5-methylene cyclic
carbamates either by cyclization of an alkynyl amine with carbon dioxide in the
presence of a copper catalyst or by forming an isocyanate from a substituted
acetoacetamide followed by hydrolysis. The 5-methylene cyclic carbamates by either
method are converted to 5-(chloromethylene) cyclic carbamates, using
trichloroisocyanuric acid, followed by hydrolysis to a chloroketoamine. 
     The chloroketoamine from the process of this invention additionally can be
reacted with an organic acid chloride to form an amide compound which is useful as
a fungicide.

Abstract: A transvenous lead designed for multi-chamber
electrical stimulation or sensing. The lead features one or
more electrodes (104,105) for communication with the right atrium
as well as one or more electrodes for communication with either
or both of the left chambers of the heart. The lead further
features structures to simultaneously bring the first electrode
into contact with a first chamber, such as the right atrial wall
and the second electrode into contact with a particular portion
of the coronary sinus wall, to electrically access the left
atrium or ventricle.
The distal section (200) of the lead body extends for
a distance between the distal most tip of the lead body and an
electrode for a distance of approximately 3cm
and has the greatest flexibility of any
of the remaining linear section. A middle lead
body portion (201) extends from the first electrode to a second
electrode for a distance of approximately
1.5 cm, and this section has the greatest flexibility
of any of the other remaining linear section of the lead body
(i.e. it is less flexible as compared to distal section). Next a
further section (202) of the lead features a tine (102) having an
electrode, this section is positioned from second electrode a
distance of approximately 5cm.
This section has the least flexibility of any of the sections of
the lead body.

Abstract: The seat post comprises an outer tube 11, for sliding into a bicycle frame
tube, and an inner seat support 19 that is slidably carried in the outer tube
on a spring 20. The outer tube has an annular flange in which are formed
four screw threaded cavities that communicate with the interior of the outer
tube. The four cavities are positioned at 90 degree increments around the
tube in a cross formation. Each cavity receives a grub screw, for example
28 and 30, that abuts against the support 19 to minimise lateral and twisting
movement of the support whilst still allowing it to slide vertically. Locking
grub screws, for example 32 and 34, are also provided to lock the grub
screws 28, 30 in position. To further prevent rotation, the support 19 may
comprise a non - circular section that slides in a correspondingly shaped
part of the outer tube or it may comprise a longitudinal slot which receives
a projection from the outer tube. The inner surface of the outer tube may be
tapered to accommodate the lateral expansion of the spring under axial
compression. A tie rod 23 extends through an axial cavity in the support
and the outer tube and is held in place by cirdips, for example 25, that locate
in annular grooves. The spring 20 may be replaced with a spring of different
rating to accommodate for users of different weight.

Abstract: Multiported register files used for storing coefficients in adaptive FIR are
improved upon by implementing a split memory architecture (103,104) that has the
ability to separately control the least significant bits and the most significant bits of
coefficient values that are stored in the filter. When the filter is operated to use so-called
"burst mode" updating, the updating circuitry of the filter can be disabled (by
WE,RE) and only the most significant bits of the coefficients are read out from the
multiported register file while the least significant bits remain unchanged. This
conserves power without sacrificing precision, since only certain ones of the bits of the
coefficients are used in the multiplication of the sample. In addition, when only the
most significant bits of the coefficients are being cycled through the register filter, any
changing bits are prevented from being supplied to the updating circuit, so that the
updating circuit performs no computation at all, rather than performing one that is
discarded. Advantageously, using such improved multiported register files, adaptive
FIR filters can be constructed which operate with lower power consumption.
