Abstract: A molded laminated article is made from (a) a composite comprising a crosslinked polyolefin resin foam having an average gel proportion of 10 to 75% and an average expansion ratio of 5 to 40, in which the average expansion ratio in a portion having a thickness of 0.5 mm on the side of one surface of the foam is larger than the average expansion ratio in a portion having a thickness of 0.5 mm on the side of the other surface thereof and the difference between said average expansion ratios is from 2 to 20, and a skin material bonded to the surface having the larger average expansion ratio, and (b) a thermoplastic resin as a skeleton material, as follows. The composite is placed at a predetermined position intermediate between a pair of upper and lower mold halves so that the skin material side of the composite confronts or is in contact with the molding surface of one of the mold halves and the melt of the thermoplastic resin confronts or is in contact with the molding surface of the other of the mold halves; and the mold halves are clamped to effect compression molding. The molded laminated article is useful as an interior article for a vehicle.

Abstract: A position device and method which uses an electronic memory to retain a look up table for calibrated position indicia (19) on a scale (17). The position indicia (19) are preferably arranged along the scale so that at least two indicia are positioned at unique distances apart in each length segment (131, 133, 135, 137) of the scale (17). A reader (105, 119) electrically reads the at least two indicia (19) of a segment and the electronic memory look up table allows the at least two indicia to determine the segment, position within segment, and the position relationship between the position within the segment and the reader. Preferably the indicia are slits (19) in a scale bar (17) and the reader is a light source (119) and a charge-coupled device (105). The position of the slits (19) is preferably determined using more than one pixel of the charge-coupled device (105).

Abstract: Modified apparatus for testing the adhesive strength of the bond between the liner and medium in corrugated paperboard in which a clamp is used having a plate 24 abutting one liner and fingers or prongs 21 holding the medium and liner against the plate 24. The bond between the medium and the other liner is measured by applying a force to a strip bonded to the other liner and measuring the applied force which results in failure of the bond. The sample preparation required is simplified with this design which avoids the use of hooks penetrating the sample.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for detecting multiple DNA sequences simultaneously. The method involves amplification of multiple sequences simultaneously by annealing a plurality of paired oligonucleotide primers to single stranded DNA. One member of each pair is complimentary to the sense strand of a sequences and the other member is complimentary to a different segment of the anti-sense strand of the same sequence. The amplification occurs by alternately annealing and extending the primers. The invention also includes oligonucleotide primer sequences helpful in detecting genetic diseases and/or exogenous DNA sequences.

IPC: H04N1/50
Filed: 1989-10-23
Abstract: In a scanning and printing apparatus such as a copier or facsimile machine, the same driving system (11-­15) moves the scanning unit (21-23) and transports paper (35) through the printing unit (41-47). One edge of the paper (35) is held by a clamping mechanism (31) that is driven together with the scanning unit. In a copier, signals from the scanning unit can be sent directly to the printing unit for simultaneous scanning and printing which automatically synchronises the scanning and printing speeds. Alternatively, the signals can be temporarily stored, and scanning and printing can be performed in opposite directions of motion. For color scanning and printing, the scanning unit has filters (64) that spectrally match the inks in the printing unit. The apparatus is compact and economical because it has only a single driving mechanism and requires minimal signal interfacing.

Abstract: In a method for effectively producing ceramic manifolds for thermally insulating exhaust channels, an intermediate product is first formed by drain casting which includes a main ceramic pipe (1) having plural branch pipes (2) extending therefrom. The ends of the branch pipes (2) are connected together by elongated connections (3) in the form of thin plates or bars. The intermediate product is fired and the ends of the branch pipes are then cut off together with the connections. In this manner even ceramic pipes complicated in shape can be readily produced by preventing strains and deformations which may occur in firing.

IPC: G11C5/02
Filed: 1990-04-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a static memory having a plurality of hierarchical levels (H0...H3) and inserted pipeline registers. Good ways of accomplishing this are specified here, since the area requirement for the driving and reading circuits on the first hierarchical level (H1) is particularly critical. Memory cells which have separate write word lines and read word lines as well as separate write data lines and read data lines which continue to provide a strong cell signal, so that the read circuit is uncomplicated, are advantageously used for this. For the memory in question, a new clock pattern with an arrangement of pipeline registers is proposed, with which the power consumption is reduced and the area saving is increased by switching off the clock pulses on the lower hierarchical levels. …<IMAGE>…

Abstract: A printed-circuit board inspection apparatus for checking the condition of each circuit component (102) mounted by soldering on a printed-circuit board (101) is disclosed in which a luminance signal (105) obtained from the reflected light scattering from the printed-circuit board being illuminated is converted through a given threshold level to binary signals (114), then the binary signals (114) and mask data are processed to calculate the ratio of an area represented by the number of binary "1" signals to an area represented by the number of binary "0" signals, and the soldering condition of the component is judged based on the area ratio. With this arrangement, the inspection is not negatively influenced by the misalignment of the component with a mating soldering land, is capable of judging the amount of solder, and can be performed automatically and efficiently. The binary signals may be converted into code data by assigning a code "1" or "0" to each of a plurality of split masks set on each soldering land, depending on the largeness of the area in which the number of binary "1" signals "1" is larger than the number of binary "0" signals or vice versa. In this case, the judgment of the soldering condition is made by comparing the code data with code   patterns contained in a predetermined code table.

Abstract: A method and arrangement of locating cordless units in a wide area cordless telephone system is disclosed. A service area is previously divided into a plurality of small service zones and, a plurality of cordless units are provided for establishing communications with a system controller via a plurality of access stations. The system controller locates the cordless units and stores therein location data thereof. Each of the cordless units also stores the location data thereof applied from the system controller. A cordless unit issues a request signal by which a cordless unit location is performed. The request signal is received at an access station which in turn checks to determine if the request signal applied thereto is issued from a cordless unit whose location data indicates a service zone belonging to a predetermined service zone group. In the event that the cordless unit location data applied to the access station is found to fall within the predetermined service zone group, the access station relays the request signal applied thereto, together with a signal level of the request signal, to the system controller.
