Patent EP-1819202-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HONDA TATSUYA
IPC: H05B33/14
Filed: 2007-01-22
Abstract: To provide a structure of a light emitting element superior in light emission efficiency to a top surface. A structure where two electrodes are arranged in a surface parallel to a substrate with a light emitting layer interposed therebetween, is provided. An electrode is not disposed below the light emitting layer. Therefore, by providing a reflective film below the light emitting layer, light emission efficiency to a top surface can be improved. For example, a film with a reflective index lower than that of the light emitting layer is provided, and light toward the lower side of the light emitting layer is reflected at an interface of the stack where the refractive index has a gap; accordingly, light emission efficiency to the top surface can be improved. In addition, a metal film with a high reflectance (a reflective metal film with a fixed potential or in a floating state) can be disposed below the light emitting layer.

Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to provide an adhesive composition for an alginate impression material having excellent adhesive property to materials of various kinds of impression tray such as metal, plastic and the like, and having an effect to a paste type alginate impression material which does not conventionally have sufficient holding force to an impression tray. The adhesive composition for an alginate impression material, has the feature that 1-50 weight % of one or more kinds of compound selected from rosin, ester gum and polyamide resin are dissolved in an organic solvent. As the organic solvent, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl acetate, toluene and the like can be used. Although those can be independently used, the organic solvent obtained by combining isopropyl alcohol and ethyl acetate or isopropyl alcohol and toluene is preferable.

Abstract: The invention relates to producing data traffic where the time intervals between successive data frames follow a predetermined probability distribution. In the present invention, it is surprisingly discovered that a time interval of a desired length between successive data frames can be produced by setting a certain bit quantity of digital stuffing data, defined on the basis of the target length of the time interval target, in a buffer memory (101), where successive data frames are waiting to be transmitted. The digital stuffing data is set in the buffer memory (101), so that the stuffing data is, in the read-out order, located between successive data frames.

Abstract: An aerofoil 31, 43, 56 is provided by layers of material with at least one layer of the material being relatively stiff whilst other layers of material are less dense but are subject to less stress within the aerofoil. Thus, by judicious positioning of the stiffer layers of material an effective operational aerofoil is achieved, with the other layers of material having a lower stiffness but also lower mass so that the overall mass of the aerofoil is reduced. It will be understood by appropriate positioning of the layers of material it is possible to tune the aerofoil for deformation and vibrational response effects, particularly under impact loading from bird strikes etc.

Abstract: A radio receiver (10) can be tuned selectably in a first mode to radio stations broadcasting in the 87.5 to 108.0 MHz FM2 band and in a second mode to event radio broadcasts on preset frequencies at least one of which is outside that band. A pair of push buttons (20,22) can be operated to change the reception frequency to which the receiver is tuned. When the first mode is selected, the push-buttons can be used to tune the receiver to any desired frequency in the FM band and/or to the frequency of any desired signal being received in the FM band. When the second mode is selected, the push-buttons can be used to tune the receiver only to any one of the preset event radio frequencies. When the user wishes to change between listening to a broadcast in the FM band and listening to an event radio broadcast outside the first band, they therefore do not need to scan between the event radio frequency and the frequency of the other broadcast. Also, the user cannot tune the receiver to frequencies (which may be prohibited frequencies) between the event radio frequency and the FM2 band. The receiver is in a housing (12) that can be worn on the user's ear, and has a lanyard (118) that also forms an aerial and that is releasably connected to the housing (12).
