Abstract: The invention relates to cartridges for portable barrelless weapon for
self- defense. Said weapon can be used by civil persons for self-defense
by shooting with traumatic elements. The inventive cartridge
comprises a cartridge case, a powder charge, an ignition element
embodied in a form of an electrical ignition fuse and a gas generator
pressed into the cartridge case, in addition to a traumatic element
embodied in the form of a rubber bullet provided with a metallic core
which prevents the extraction of the bullet. The bullet is rolled inside
the body of the gas generator. The electrical ignition fuse and the
gas generator can be embodied in the form of a single part or be
embodied separately. The cartridge case can be made of a high
resistance aluminum alloy or reinforced plastic material. The inventive
traumatic element for a barrelless weapon is made of a flexible metal
and embodied in the form of a bullet provided with a metallic core
which prevents the extraction of the bullet. The bullet consists of two
parts, i.e. the head part and the tail part connected with each other
with the aid of a strap. The tail part of the bullet has an external
diameter which is less than the diameter of the head part. The bullet
can be made of rubber. The invention excludes the possibility of bad
wounding by the cartridge and the bullet at a distance equal to
greater than 1 meter and ensures a stopping effect at the distance
equal to or less than 10 meters.

Abstract: A battery effect causing asymmetry in liquid crystal responses can be
prevented, an offset voltage applied to a driving voltage can be reduced, and
high reliability is secured even during long term driving. A pixel electrode
is covered with a metal film (43) which has a standard electrode potential
with a sign opposite to that of a metallic material constituting the pixel
electrode. This prevents the battery effect between the opposing electrodes,
unlike conventional devices which do not have the metal film (43). Thereby,
the asymmetry in the liquid crystal responses can be prevented and reducing
the offset voltage which is required for the driving voltage can be
accomplished unlike the conventional ones. Moreover, a circuit for applying
the offset voltage is simplified or unnecessary, and improvement of long term
reliability during the driving can be accomplished.

Abstract: In a power converting apparatus including a capacitor
connected in series which serves to divide a DC voltage, and
a PWM inverter bridge for converting the DC voltage into an AC
phase voltage having three electric potentials of a positive
voltage, a negative voltage and an intermediate voltage in a
plurality of phases, a zero voltage period generator (11) is
switched by signal switching devices (5 to 10) when a load
current reaches a first overcurrent level based on the detection
of an overcurrent detector (12), and there is provided a zero
voltage period having an intermediate voltage in which output
phase voltages having all phases of the power converting
apparatus become the intermediate voltages, thereby carrying
out a current limitation. With an inexpensive structure,
consequently, a rapidly increased current in an inverter can
be instantaneously suppressed at time of the detection of an
overcurrent.

IPC: C30B25/18
Filed: 2002-08-05
Abstract: In a separation layer removing process α, temperature
in a reaction chamber (heat treatment temperature T x ) is
raised to about 1000°C and a separation layer A is evaporated
through thermal decomposition, to thereby separate about 10µm
in thickness of protection layer B from a base substrate side
(a sapphire substrate 101 comprising a buffer layer 102).
Because decomposition temperature of the separation layer A
is higher than growth temperature of the protection layer B
(about 650°C) and lower than growth temperature of the
semiconductor crystal C (about 1000°C), the separation layer
A vanishes (evaporates) by thermal decomposition, which
generates this separation process. Accordingly, a
semiconductor crystal having a cross sectional structure
shown in FIG. 2B is obtained. By employing the protection
layer B which is independent from the base substrate side as
another crystal growth substrate, dislocations and cracks may
not be generated by stress owing to difference of lattice
constants or difference of thermal expansion coefficients,
and a semiconductor crystal layer C (GaN single crystal) of
high quality can be obtained.

Abstract: A delay circuit is provided for use in a ring oscillator of a phase locked loop (PLL). The delay circuit includes a differential pair of NMOS transistors 102 and 103 with an NMOS transistor 101 providing the tail current for the differential pair. Complementary NMOS and PMOS load transistors 104,106 and 105, 107 provide loads for the differential transistor 102 and 103. Transistors 111-114 and 121-122 together with an amplifier 130 provide biasing for the delay device. The amplifier 130 has a non-inverting input set to VDD-VCLAMP. As configured, a constant output voltage swing from VDD to VDD-VCLAMP is provided at the outputs VOUT+ and VOUT- of the delay device, independent of a control voltage VCTL used to set the tail current. The NMOS load transistor 104, as opposed to the PMOS transistor 4 in FIG. 1, does not contribute to the gate parasitic capacitance enabling a high operation speed without consumption of more supply current. A wide frequency tuning range of a ring oscillator using the delay circuit of FIG. 2 is provided because the operating frequency for a ring oscillator will be directly proportional to the tail current through transistor 101.

Abstract: This invention is characterized by having filamentous
fungi act on a DL-alanine containing solution and
assimilate L-alanine without by-producing pyruvic acid.
The D-alanine can be produced efficiently because the

separated from the fermentation broth and the
fermentation broth contains no pyruvic acid. For the
purpose of isolating the D-alanine from the separating
solution, it suffices to treat the separating solution
by the use of an ion exchange resin. The filamentous
fungi effectively usable herein belong to at least one
member selected from the class consisting of genus
Aspergillus, genus Penicillium, genus Mucor, genus
Rhizopus, genus Circinella, genus Cladosporium, genus
Trichoderma, genus Eurotium, genus Chaetomium, genus
Aureobasidium, genus Geotrichum, and genus Paecilomyces
