Inventor: KUDO MOTOHIRO
IPC: B30B15/00
Filed: 2003-02-26
Abstract: A multi-optical-path photoelectric safety apparatus or a light curtain is placed in front of a pressing machine 11 or a folding machine 11. Optical paths are set as a floating blanking area B (some paths out of a large number of optical paths) in the light curtain. The operation of the pressing machine or folding machine is forcibly stopped when two contiguous optical paths are blocked in the floating blanking area B. On the other hand, the normal protection function serves in areas A and C between which area B is sandwiched. In these areas A and C, if any one optical path enters a light blocked state, the operation of the pressing machine or folding machine is immediately stopped.

Abstract: A translucent cover (9) is so provided as to cover a high pressure sodium lamp (11)
adapted to radiate at least visible light and rays of light in the wavelength range of 300 nm to
400 nm. A photocatalytic film (13) which is capable of preventing generation of interference
between visible light is formed on either one of or both the inner side and outer side of the
translucent cover (9). The photocatalytic film (13) contains as the principal component
titania (TiO 2 ) of which the peak wavelength for visible light transmittance is nearly the same
as the peak wavelength for visible light radiated from the high pressure sodium lamp (11).
Ultraviolet light radiated from the high pressure sodium lamp (11) enhances oxidation and
decomposition of substances performed by the photocatalytic film (13), thereby preventing
grime and contaminants from adhering to the translucent cover (9). Even if the thickness of
the photocatalytic film (13) is increased in order to make the photocatalytic function more
effective, visible light radiated from the high pressure sodium lamp (11) effectively passes
through the photocatalytic film (13) at the peak wavelength so that decrease in the
illuminating efficiency is prevented.

approaches the conical tapered portion (167) of the cylindrical wall (162) to
compensate for the saturation of magnetic flux through the fixed air gap.

Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for extending a microprocessor instruction set beyond its current capabilities to allow for extended size operands specifiable by programmable instructions in the microprocessor instruction set. The apparatus includes translation logic and extended execution logic. The translation logic translates an extended instruction into corresponding micro instructions for execution by the microprocessor. The extended instruction has an extended prefix and an extended prefix tag. The extended prefix specifies an extended operand size for an operand corresponding to a prescribed operation, where the extended operand size cannot be specified by an existing instruction set. The extended prefix tag indicates the extended prefix, where the extended prefix tag is an otherwise architecturally specified opcode within the existing instruction set. The extended execution logic is coupled to the translation logic. The extended execution logic receives the corresponding micro instructions and performs the prescribed operation using the operand.

Abstract: Novel methods are herein provided for high-throughput, dual analysis of DNA methylation and gene expression, and triple analysis of DNA methylation, gene expression and gene-associated histone acetylation in cancer cells using arrayed expressed CpG island sequence tags (ECISTs). ECISTs correspond to genomic DNA fragments comprising GC-rich segments along with promoter and/or exon (e.g., first exon) portions of genes. The GC-rich segments are useful for screening hypermethylated CpG sites in cancer cells, while the corresponding promoter and exon-containing portions are useful for determining corresponding transcript levels and assessing histone acetylation. Also provided are high-throughput methods for either confirming methylation-dependent gene silencing, or identifying therapeutically effective demethylating agents, using the ECIST array panels to identify hypermethylated loci, and measure expression levels thereof after cellular exposure to demethylating agents. Further provided are high-throughput methods for distinguishing between direct (primary) demethylation-dependent gene up-regulation, and indirect (secondary) demethylation-dependent up-regulation within apparent epigenetic cascades.
