Abstract: Eine Vorrichtung (1) dient zum Reinigen von Oberflächen zum Beispiel an Platten und hat ein Reinigungsgerät (2), welches endlos umläuft und ein Obertrum (3) und ein Untertrum (4) sowie dazwischen zwei Umlenkrollen (5,6) hat. Das eine Trum ist dabei das Reinigungstrum, welches durch eine Führung (8) gehalten und an die zu reinigende Fläche angedrückt wird. Der Trägerriemen (7) ist auf wenigstens einer Längsseite bereichsweise ausgenommen oder abgeflacht und somit gegenüber seinem übrigen Längenbereich schmaler. Zumindest ein in Vorschubrichtung des Reinigungstrums vorderer Teil (8a) der Führung (8) kann aus der Vorschubrichtung nach außen, dabei die Innenseite (7a) des Trägerriemens (7) beaufschlagend, auslenkbar oder biegsam sein und die Führung (8) hat einen im wesentlichen C-förmigen Querschnitt, der die gesamte Breite des Trägerriemens (7) in sich aufnimmt. Der demgegenüber schmalere Öffnungsschlitz (10) der Führung (8) hat eine Breite, die kleiner als die des Trägerriemens (7), aber gleich oder größer als der ausgenommene oder abgeflachte Bereich des Trägerriemens (7) ist, so daß bei Auslenkung des Teiles (8a) dieser ausgenommene Bereich des Trägerriemens (7) in die Führung (8) eintritt, so daß der nachfolgende weitere Bereich des Trägerriemens (7) eingefädelt wird. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A video game system for simulating a golf game displays three-dimensional image information indicative of the terrain profile of a golf course and image information of a golf ball on the display screen of a television monitor. The golf ball is moved on the display screen based on the image information indicative of the terrain profile and a command from a controller operated by the game player. A guide comprising a matrix of lines is displayed on the display screen, and the luminance and length of each of said lines are established based on the image information indicative of the terrain profile. The guide is three-dimensionally displayed over the three-dimensional image information indicative of the terrain profile on said display screen. The three-dimensionally displayed guide allows the game player to visually recognize heights and distances of various areas of the golf course in an intuitive fashion, and hence allows the game player to operate the controller in a manner to match terrain features of the golf course in the game space.

Abstract: A system and method for two-way wireless messaging is disclosed. A
plurality of messages are stored within a user agent of the two-way messaging network.
The messages correspond to those selected by a subscriber of a two-way messaging
service. The messages are encoded and include control information. An originating
message transfer code is transmitted from the two-way messaging device of the subscriber
to the two-way messaging network. The originating message transfer code includes,
among other things a message number and a modifier that specifies customizations that are
to be applied to a message. The originating message code is then expanded within the user
agent, and the expanded message is forwarded to desired destinations based on the content
of the originating message transfer code. In one aspect of the present invention, the
message can be encoded with at least one control tag and in another aspect of the
invention, the message can be encoded with paired control tags that delimit the beginning
and end portions of a message to which control should be applied.

Abstract: A digital TV receiver suffers from latency when a channel change is made to a program in an other than the currently accessed transport stream (TS). That is because the transport decoder (202) must first acquire and decode the Program Specific Information (PSI) from the transport stream, such as the Program Association Table and Program Map Table. In accordance with the invention, a pre-decoder (203) is successively coupled to the other transport streams through a cross bar switch (204) to extract the PSI from said other streams and create a map of channels.

Abstract: Integrating AFC/APC function with waveform equalization
function for and reducing the circuit size of a signal waveform
equalizer apparatus. A waveform equalization section is
divided into an FFE block as an anterior stage and a DFE
block as a posterior stage. An AFC/APC block is provided
therebetween. In the AFC/APC block, an AFC/APC coefficient
update section updates a coefficient used for removing frequency
and phase errors in accordance with an LMS algorithm,
and a tap multiplies a modulated signal by the updated coefficient.
Error data produced by an error estimation block is
used by not only FFE and DFE coefficient update sections but
also the AFC/APC coefficient update section for updating the
coefficients. That is to say, the waveform equalization section
and the AFC/APC block use the error estimation block in
common, thereby reducing the circuit size considerably.

Abstract: A deposition system (100) in a semiconductor
fabrication system provides at least one electron gun
(104) which injects energetic electrons into a
semiconductor fabrication chamber (102) to initiate
and sustain a relatively high density plasma at
extremely low pressures. In addition to ionizing atoms
of the the extremely low pressure gas, such as argon
gas at 100 microTorr, for example, the energetic
electrons are also believed to collide with target
material atoms sputtered from a target (110)
positioned above a substrate (112), thereby ionizing
the target material atoms and losing energy as a
result of the collisions. Preferably, the electrons
are injected substantially tangientially to the walls
of a chamber shield (106) surrounding the plasma (900)
in a magnetic field generally parallel to a central
axis of the semiconductor fabrication chamber (102)
connecting the target (110) to the substrate (112). As
the injected electrons lose energy ionizing the target
material atoms, the electrons spiral inwards toward a
central region of the semiconductor fabrication
chamber (102) surrounding the central axis, forming an
electron cloud in the central region. An arrangement
of electromagnets (1000,1010) may be positioned
adjacent the walls of the chamber shield (106)
surrounding the plasma (900) to generate the magnetic
field. It is believed that the configuration of
magnetic fields also keeps electrons from colliding
with the wall of the chamber shield (106) surrounding
the plasma (900).
