Abstract: An improved method is provided for programming a non-volatile memory cell formed at a face of a layer of semiconductor 12 of a first conductivity type and having a source region 14 in a drain 16 of a second conductivity type spaced by a channel 18. A floating gate 22 is disposed insulatively adjacent channel 18 and a control gate 24 is disposed insulatively adjacent floating gate 22. The source region 14 is grounded while a first voltage is applied to the drain region 16. A time varying voltage pulse is applied to the control gate such that the potential of floating gate 22 remains substantially constant as electrons are accumulated on floating gate 22.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a recording/reproducing method for an optical recording medium comprising a step of heating a recording layer containing a photochromic material and a polymer which are so combined with each other that a photostationary state attained upon irradiation with light of a specific wavelength is varied with temperatures, and a step of applying the light of a specific wavelength to the heated recording layer for bringing the same into a photostationary state and recording information. In order to reproduce the information, a portion of the recording layer which is in a photostationary state is selectively heated, and reproducing light is applied to reproduce recorded and unrecorded states.

Abstract: The two-part injection mould 1 is connected by means of a fixed moulding plate 6 to the cylinder housing 2, whilst the travelling piston 4, which can be extended out of the cylinder housing 2, engages with an adjustable mounting plate 7. A hollow-cylindrical recess in the travelling piston 4 forms a pressure chamber 42, into which the piston rod 34 of a pressure piston disposed below in the cylinder housing 2 is immersed. The injection mould 1 is moved into the clamping position using pressure fluid, which is introduced into the pressure chamber 42 via a control valve 45 through a longitudinal bore 39 in the pressure piston 3, external air being sucked through a radial bore 24 into the opening annular chamber 9 of the cylinder housing 2. With the supply of pressure fluid below the pressure piston 3, the piston surface of said pressure piston acts as a pressure transformer with respect to the piston rod 34, and, via the pressure increase in the pressure chamber 42, reinforces the force for locking the mould 1. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A rewritable disk (10), in which the length of the edit gap (18) is reduced to thereby achieve higher-density recording, as well as an apparatus for such disk, is disclosed. 
     An area for recording a preformated encoding pattern (22) is provided on a rewritable disk (10) in order to obtain information of an eccentricity produced when the disk (10) is chucked. The information of the eccentricity produced at the time of disk chucking is detected, while the disk (10) is being driven, from a reference pulse (RP) obtained by reproduction of the encoding pattern and, on the basis of the eccentricity information, the frequency of the clock (WCK/RCK) for writing data or reading data is modulated according to eccentric positions. 
     By so doing, it can be achieved to properly write data in sectors (16) even when the disk (10) is chucked with a certain eccentricity. Accordingly, it becomes so that only a length corresponding to several clocks is required for the edit gap (18). Thus, the ration between the area occupied by the edit gaps (18) and the area of the entire disk (10) can be reduced and thereby higher-density recording becomes achievable.

Abstract: A gas lighter (1) with a safety device which is composed of a lock lever (7) and a resilient leaf (12). The resilient leaf (12) is defined, on the upper portion of a lighter body (2) and on the path of a depressible actuating means (5), by a pair of slits (11a-11b) formed parallel to each other and longitudinally. The resilient leaf (12), which is slidably surrounded with the lock lever (7), is at the upper end thereof incurved towards the lighter body. When the lock lever (7) is positioned at the lowermost end of the slits, i.e., a locked position, the incurved portion of the resilient leaf is engaged with a recess (6a) at the lowermost end of the actuating means, thereby preventing the depression of the actuating means. When the lock lever (7) is thrust uppermost along the slits, i.e., up to an unlocked position, the incurved end of the resilient leaf is forcibly straightened, whereby the disengaged actuating means can be depressed.

Abstract: An automatic molten metal supplying device and supplying method capable of promoting discharge of molten metal (2) retained in a ladle (3) during pouring into an injection sleeve of a die-casting machine, and capable of preventing a residual molten metal from being suspended from the intake/discharge port (3C). A ladle is selectively communicatable with an atmosphere by the opening/closing unit (4). The opening/closing unit (4) is connected to a molten metal pressurizing mechanism (20) and a residual molten metal removing mechanism (30) through pipes (40). At the time of pouring, small volume or low pressure fluid is introduced into the ladle (3) by means of the molten metal pressurizing mechanism through the opening/closing unit. After completion of the pouring, large volume or high pressure fluid is introduced into the ladle by the residual molten metal removing mechanism. Since low volume or low pressure fluid is applied into the ladle during pouring, the molten metal can be smoothly discharged from the ladle. After the pouring, since large volume or high pressure fluid is applied into the ladle, residual molten metal in the ladle can be discharged therefrom, and no molten metal suspension from the intake-discharge port occurs. Thus, casting period can be reduced, and clean working condition can be provided.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for attaching a belt-shaped member (15) to a forming drum (14). A belt-shaped member is transferred to the forming drum to pressure-join the front end of the belt-shaped member to the forming drum and the position of the rear end of the belt-shaped member is measured to obtain an excess or a shortage in length of the member. The rear end of the belt-shaped member is grasped by means of a grasping unit (68). Thereafter, the grasping unit is moved toward the forming drum (14), while the forming drum is rotating at a circumferential speed which is different from the moving speed of the grasping unit dependently upon the excess or the shortage of the member, thereby attaching the belt-shaped member to the forming drum and joining the front and rear ends of the member with each other. As an alternative, the grasping unit (68) is moved toward and away from the forming drum (14) dependently upon the excess or the shortage of the member (15) to make zero the excess or the shortage, while the grasping unit is moved at a speed of a constant ratio to the circumferential speed of the forming drum.

Abstract: An improved concurrency control system for application to a distributed concurrent transaction and query processing system using multi-version database records to overcome delays arising from lock conflicts. Read-only queries are afforded a consistent "stable state" of the database during the life of the query. Updating transactions requiring locks can proceed without waiting for the termination of long queries. At least two database versions are necessary, although availability of more versions permits long read-only queries to phase-out over time without forcing new queries to use aged "stable-state" data and without roll-back. Read-only queries can be terminated and converted to locking transactions to permit an update of the "stable state" database version before the queries would normally terminate. A novel record key structure having a plurality of substructures corresponding to the several database versions is used to access database records. Rapid selection of proper record version and efficient version tracking and updating is effected using several bit-mapped transaction index tables.
