Abstract: A digital image forming apparatus equipped with an optical scanner unit which is detachable from a main body includes in its upper an image reading section and in its lower part an image forming section. The apparatus is arranged such that the optical scanner unit can be installed and removed in and from the apparatus in a vertical direction, and can be removed through an opening provided for removing therethrough the image forming section. According to the described arrangement, during the installation and removal of the optical scanner unit, removal of the image reading section and a special opening for the optical scanner unit are not required, thereby reducing the restriction on structural design of the apparatus and permitting easy installation and removal of the optical scanner unit. As a result, the maintenance of the apparatus can be performed with an improved efficiency.

Abstract: The method comprises the steps of receiving call charge data in a mobile phone from a central station and storing the value in a first section (S1) of a memory (SP). The memory has a second section (S2) which contains pre-programmed call type charge classification data such as price per unit considering a basic fee, cheaper rates etc. A controller (ST) reads the call type charge classification data, relates it to the call charge data received from the central station and calculates the actual amount which corresponds to the call. The amount is added to previous call charges and displayed on a screen (A) of the mobile phone. The memory is erasable to enable resetting of the call charges, and can be implemented by a removable chipcard (SIM).

Abstract: A non-volatile memory cell (10) is provided employing two transistors (11, 12) connected in series. A floating gate structure (13), formed with a single polysilicon deposition, is shared by each transistor (11, 12) to store the logic condition of the memory cell (10). To program and erase the memory cell (10), a voltage potential is placed on the floating gate (13) which modulates the transistors (11, 12) so only one is conducting during read operations. The gate capacitance of the transistors (11, 12) is used to direct the movement of electrons on or off the floating gate structure (13) to place or remove the stored voltage potential. The two transistor memory cell (10) couples one of two voltage potentials as the output voltage so no sense amp or buffer circuitry is required. The memory cell (10) can be constructed using traditional CMOS processing methods since no additional process steps or device elements are required.

Abstract: An intraluminal stent includes a continuous helix of zig-zag wire and loops which connect adjacent apices of the wire. The stent is compressible and self-expandable substantially to a pre-compressed configuration. A method of forming the stent includes bending a length of wire into a zig-zag configuration and a helix and connecting adjacent apices of the wire. A method implanting this stent includes compressing the stent radially, implanting it in a predetermined location of a body vessel, and allowing it to recoil to the configuration it had before compression.

Abstract: A control arrangement for a multilevel convertor employs an AC reference signal which is locked to the AC system frequency and is compared with a number of DC threshold levels. Intersections of the reference signal and threshold levels triggers the firing and turning-off of GTOs within the convertor to produce the desired multilevel voltage output. Normal changes in system voltage, for example, are compensated by variation of the phase relationship of the reference signal with respect to the system voltage, and/or of the voltage values of the threshold levels. Sudden and drastic changes, especially reductions, in system voltage level are sensed and used to alter the amplitude of the reference signal so as to reduce the difference between the convertor multilevel voltage and the system voltage, thereby reducing the stress on the GTOs during faults.

proteinases, including stromelysins, collagenases, and gelatinases. These MMP enzymes
are capable of degrading the proteinaceous components of connective tissue and appear to
be involved in tissue remodeling, i.e., wound healing and connective tissue turnover.

carbon have been found to be at least 4 times more potent than the analogous (R)-alcohols
both  in vitro  and  in vivo  in inhibiting the MMP enzyme..

Abstract: A method of forming a DRAM storage cell with a trench capacitor in an SOI
substrate involves forming a field effect transistor (FET) consisting of a source,
drain, channel regions in a device layer, a gate oxide layer on the surface of the
device layer and a gate electrode over the channel region. The trench capacitor is
formed by the following steps: 1) forming a masking layer over the device layer and
patterning an opening corresponding to the trench in the masking layer, 2)
anisotropically etching a first trench corresponding to the opening in the masking
layer to a first depth, through the SC device layer and the buried oxide layer,
extending slightly into the substrate body, 3) forming a diffusion barrier collar along
the sides of the first trench to the first depth, 4) forming a second trench by
anisotropically etching the substrate body exposed by the first trench to a second
depth, so that the silicon of substrate body exposed by the second trench becomes a
first electrode of the trench capacitor, 5) forming a node dielectric layer on surface of
the substrate body exposed by the first trench, 6) forming a doped polysilicon plug in
the first and second trench so as to form a second electrode of the trench capacitor,
said plug further making contact to the drain region of the FET. A separate substrate
contact to the substrate body is formed through the front or backside so as to contact
to the first electrode of the capacitor. Oxide isolation regions between adjacent
transistors are formed to complete the SOI-DRAM.

Abstract: The invention provides a preignition detection device that is capable of detecting a preignition condition (PI) in an incipient stage. Engine vibration is detected by a vibration sensor 113 and read into a controller 12. When the length of a period during which abnormal vibration of a magnitude greater than a predetermined level occurs in succession has exceeded a predetermined length of period, or when the frequency of occurrence of abnormal vibration during a predetermined period is greater than a predetermined value and the cumulative sum of the frequencies of occurrence of abnormal vibration has exceeded a predetermined value, then it is determined that preignition has occurred. Here, a determination value, based on which the occurrence of preignition is determined, can be varied to prevent erroneous decisions and to improve responsiveness.
