Abstract: Cette invention concerne un mécanisme permettant de distribuer avec précision des quantités prédéterminées de médicament à partir d'une seringue. Ce mécanisme a un piston (17) qui peut tourner à l'intérieur d'un logement (13) et qui possède une surface de came (19) en contact avec un suiveur fixe (22) de telle sorte que la rotation du piston (17) éloigne celui-ci de la seringue. A l'intérieur du piston se trouve un certain nombre de crémaillères parallèles (40) qui, à leur tour, entrent toutes en contact avec une première roue dentée (47) lors de la rotation du piston. La première roue dentée (47) est reliée à une seconde roue dentée (48) qui se déplace sur une crémaillère fixe (49) intérieure au piston et parallèle à l'axe de celui-ci. La première roue dentée (47) est couplée à une tige de commande (44) destinée au piston de la seringue. Après présélection de la dose requise effectuée par rotation du piston (17), ce dernier est alors poussé vers la seringue, entraînant ainsi la rotation des première et seconde roues dentées (47 et 48). Ceci a pour effet de diriger la tige de commande vers l'intérieur de la seringue mais grâce à la sélection appropriée des diamètres des roues dentées et de leur pas dentaire, il est possible d'obtenir un rapport de vitesse favorable entre les mouvements du piston et de la tige de commande.

Abstract: An electrode substrate is produced through at least the following steps of: forming a plurality of first electrodes on a light-transmissive substrate while leaving a spacing between the first electrodes, filling a resin in the spacing, curing the filled resin, and forming a plurality of second electrodes on the first electrodes and the resin so as to be in contact with the associated first electrodes, respectively. In the electrode substrate, the first electrodes have a thickness h (nm) and an average surface roughness d (nm) and the resin has a curing shrinkage ratio α (%). The thickness h, the average surface roughness d and the curing shrinkage ratio α satisfies the following relationship: d ≥ α·h/1000. A liquid crystal device is produced by using the electrode substrate satisfying the above relationship, whereby a ripple-shaped shrinkage due to a shrinkage of the resin can be prevented in an effective optical modulation region to minimize a cell gap unevenness and provide a uniform alignment state to liquid crystal molecules, thus suppressing occurrences of an ununiform optical state, crosstalk and an irregularity in drive characteristics to improve display qualities.

Abstract: In a TDMA communication system having one master
station and a plurality of slave ststions, phase
synchronization of output frame phases between slave
stations is established with quite simple construction.
In the master station, a super frame consisted of a
plurality of standard frames is generated in the super
frame generating portion. In the master station, using a
timing position matching loop already existing between the
master station and the slave station, signal delay period
between the slave station and the master station is
derived. The delay period is transmitted superimposing on
the frame in the super frame period. In the slave station,
half period of the delay period defined by the delay
information is calculated. The super frame is delayed for
the corresponding period to out to the next stage service
area. By this, phase of the super frame is synchronized
between all of the slave stations.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for abating a compound in a substrate processing
system's effluent gases. The method of the present invention begins by
introducing ozone and the effluent gases into an abatement device's combustion
chamber. Energy is then applied to the effluent gas and ozone. The application of
energy, such as thermal or radio frequency energy, then causes a reaction in and
between the effluent gases and the ozone, thereby rendering the compound inert.
The resultant gases produced are then exhausted out of the combustion chamber.

Abstract: A system for automatically measuring and compensating for any
angle of misalignment of a forward-looking sensor (13) of a vehicle (10). The
sensor (13) provides data representing the azimuth angle and the range of a
target (11) such as another vehicle. For each angle and range reading of the
sensor (13), the location point of the target (11) is estimated; after a series of
such readings, the trajectory line of the target (11) is estimated. The angle of
misalignment is estimated from the angle between the trajectory line and the
path of travel of the host vehicle (10). In subsequent readings of the sensor
(13), the estimated angle of misalignment is subtracted from the measured
azimuth angle to produce an accurate azimuth angle of the target. The accurate
azimuth angle is provided for use by another unit (31) such as a collision
warning system and/or an intelligent cruise control.

Abstract: Methods of using an adiabatic Y-branch digital optical modulator provide a
substantially chirp-free modulator by changing the refractive index of only a first
output branch of the modulator in response to a modulating signal. A second
output branch of the modulator, where no refractive index change is induced, is
used as the modulator output. The frequency chirp in this Y-branch modulator is
negligible because the modulator output waveguide branch experiences little or
no refractive index change and, therefore, little or no phase shift in operation.
Substantially all of the phase shift occurs in the waveguide branch where the
refractive index change is induced. According to a further embodiment, one or
both of the output branches are comprised of one or more tapered waveguide
sections.
