Patent EP-0514681-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SCHIEBELHUTH HEINZ
IPC: A47J31/047
Filed: 1992-04-24
Abstract: In an electrically heated continuous-flow heater, a further electrical switching element (26), which has an open position and a closed position, is connected electrically in series with the thermostat (12), which electrical switching element (26) is always closed in the heating mode and, in the keeping-hot mode, can be opened and closed again by a control circuit (11). The control circuit (11) contains a temperature sensor (21) which is in good thermal contact with the hot drink. When the sensor temperature is above a definable switching temperature at the start of the keeping-hot mode, the control circuit (11) then holds the switching element (26) in its open position for as long as the sensor temperature remains higher than the switching temperature while the hot drink is in consequence cooling down. In the keeping-hot mode, the control circuit (11) always holds the switching element (26) in its closed position for a first time period (heating cycle) which can be defined, independently of the sensor temperatures occurring during the heating cycle, when the sensor temperature is less than or equal to the temperature of the switching element (26). In this case, the heating cycle is dimensioned to be so short that, at the same time, the temperature of the thermostat (12) always remains below its opening temperature. After the end of a heating cycle, the control circuit (11) opens the switching element (26) independently of the temperature measured by the temperature sensor (21) after the end of said cycle, and holds said switching element (26) open for a dead time which can be defined. This results, on the one hand, in the continuous-flow heater (1) emitting the full heating power during the heating mode and, on the other hand, controlling said heating power in the keeping-hot mode such that temperature fluctuations in the keeping-hot plate (10) and hence in the hot drink are kept as small as possible.

The compartmentalised box (4) has a fixed end wall (8), which leaves the bushing opening (7) free, on both sides of the wall opening (2), and, between the end walls (8), forms a receptacle (9) which is open towards the bushing opening (7). A compartmentalisation body (10), which contains the intumescent material (14), is guided in a moving manner in this receptacle (9). A retaining device (12) holds the compartmentalisation body (10) firmly in the receptacle (9) and does not allow it to move out of the receptacle (9) into the bushing opening (7) until there is a fire. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method is disclosed for measuring the performance of individual lasers in a multiple channel laser printer. A laser is first preheated and then a test cycle is begun as follows. The laser is first set to a point just below but substantially equal to its threshold value and then set to a test value by supplying it with a preselected current pulse within its operating range. The power output of the laser is then read a substantial number of times and the average value of the readings of laser power output is recorded. The test cycle is repeated for a substantial number of different test values with respectively different preselected current pulses within the laser's operating range.

Abstract: Disclosed are strained layer heteroepitaxial structures (e.g., GeSi/Si) that can have low threading dislocation density as well as a substantially planar surface. Furthermore, a large fraction (e.g.,>90%) of the total surface area of the structure can be available for device processing. These advantageous features are achieved through utilization of novel "dislocation sinks" (11) on or in the substrate whose height parameter h is less than or about equal to the thickness of the strained heteroepitaxial layer on the substrate. Exemplarily, h ≧ h c , where h c  is the critical thickness associated with misfit dislocation generation in the substrate/overlayer combination.

Abstract: A polysilicon gate (42) of an N-channel MOSFET (40) includes a P+ doped central portion (42a), and N+ doped lateral portions (42b,42c) which face an N-type source (24c) and drain (26c) respectively. An N-type dopant is implanted into the surface portion of a P-type channel region (18) to reduce the surface doping and adjust the transistor threshold voltage to approximately 0.8 volts. The lowered channel doping reduces the electric field at the drain (26c) and suppresses injection of hot electrons from the drain (26c) into the gate oxide (14), and also reduces the electric field across the gate oxide (14) and suppresses charging thereof by hot electrons. N-type and P-type graded strata (26a,26b) are formed between the drain (26c) and substrate (12) and create two reverse biased diode junctions which block flow of drain current from the channel region (18), thereby eliminating the creation of hot electrons and impact ionization in the bulk portion of the drain diode, and channel charge carriers through the surface portion of the channel region (18). The surface portions of the channel region (18), drain (26c) and graded strata (26a,26b) are shorted together to form a shorting surface channel through which the charge carriers are constrained to flow.

Abstract: An information reproducing apparatus has (1) a reference signal generating circuit for generating a first reference signal corresponding to reproduced signal of the main information; (2) a first switching circuit for selecting one of the reproduced signal and the first reference signal; and (3) a controller, which generates a selection instructing signal, for controlling such that the reproduced signal is selected during reproducing of the main information recorded area while the first reference signal is selected during reproducing of the main information unrecorded area. With the arrangement, when the main information unrecorded area is reproduced, the clock for carrying out the reproducing of main information is synchronized with the first reference signal which corresponds to the reproduced signal. So, when the reproducing area is changed from the main information unrecorded area to the main information recorded area, the synchronizing with the reproduced signal is carried out in a short time, thereby improving the reliability of the reproducing process.

Abstract: A synthesizer varies the receive frequency band so that a receiver can receive signals in the receive frequency band of the uplink incoming call channel of a portable telephone. A receiver demodulates, from a receive signal entered via an antenna, the incoming call response signal of a portable telephone connected by radio to a base station. A comparator detects, from the incoming call response signal, the portable telephone's own ID number or telephone number stored in a memory. The memory consists of an EEPROM. An alerting section, in response to the detection of the portable telephone's own ID number or telephone number, performs call operation. The alerting section is provided with a loudspeaker for emitting an alerting sound, an LED for intermittently emitting light and a vibrator for generating vibration. A call operation select button selects the setting or resetting of the loudspeaker, the LED and the vibrator. The call operation stop button stops call operation. The portable alerting unit may detect either the ID number or the telephone number of the portable telephone out of the incoming call signal from the base station.
