Abstract: Disclosed is a method of driving a power converter (I10)
which can simplify a charging sequence of a charge pump
capacitor (CP) to reduce the time required to design the
device without using a voltage protective circuit. A
charging pulse signal for a capacitor (CP) is provided as
an input signal from an external control device (EC)
substantially simultaneously as a control power source (PS)
is switched on to provide a predetermined control power
source voltage (V PS ). A driver circuit (DR20) outputs a
control signal (V D ) to turn on a transistor (Q2) in a
pulse-like manner, starting charging of the capacitor (CP).
The charging pulse signal continues to be provided after
completion of the charging of the capacitor (CP) and stops
being supplied immediately before a PWM signal is provided.

Abstract: A novel electrode structure for Schottky
electrodes and Ohmic electrodes and novel methods of
fabricating electrodes by freely controlling electric
characteristics of electrodes on semiconductors.
Interface states density of a semiconductor (11)
after deposition of an electrode metal (13, 14) is
decreased by flattening the surface of the
semiconductor on an atomic level to freely control
the Schottky barrier height. The method can realize
an ideal Ohmic electrode having a Schottky barrier
height of substantially zero. The Schottky barrier
height is varied freely by decreasing the interface
level density and selecting work function of the
electrode metal. The method can provide stable
Schottky and Ohmic electrodes (13, 14) without need
of heat treatment. Further, the method can provide
Ohmic electrodes without high concentration doping.

Abstract: A mobile crane has main and auxiliary counterweight assemblies (30, 32) 
and is arranged such that the spar (28) or mast on which the auxiliary 
counterweight assembly is mounted is of a two-piece construction such that, upon 
the imposition of a load on the main boom (26) of the crane which is sufficient to 
deflect the boom, the outer end or tip (68) of the spar pivots to lift the auxiliary 
counterweight assembly from the ground, thereby opposing the bending forces 
imposed on the boom and allowing the platform (24) to rotate about a vertical 
slewing axis without obstruction from the auxiliary counterweight assembly. The 
spar and thus the entire crane is compact, lightweight, easy to assemble and 
disassemble, and can operate in a relatively restricted space without interference 
from obstacles around its rear. In the case of a crane having a telescoping boom, 
parts of the load line can be used to create a pendant effect which takes some of 
the bending forces out of the boom in addition to lifting the auxiliary 
counterweight assembly, thereby obviating the need for external pendant pay-out 
systems required on most telescoping cranes.

Abstract: An improved controller for controlling fuel injection
in an internal combustion engine. The engine includes a
fuel injection valve (11) for directly injecting fuel into a
combustion chamber (5). A fuel pressure sensor (63) detects
the fuel pressure within the injection valve (11). An ECU
(30) computes opening time of the injection valve (11) and
closing time of the injection valve (11) based on a required
fuel injection amount. The ECU (30) computes a reference
time at which the pressure in the combustion chamber (5)
reaches the injection pressure of the injection valve (11)
based on the detected fuel pressure. If necessary, the ECU
(30) advances the computed opening time and the computed
closing time. As a result, the fuel injection from the
injection valve (11) is finished before the reference time.
This prevents matter inside the combustion chamber (5) from
entering the fuel injection valve (11), and it guarantees
that fuel will be able to exit the fuel injection valve (11)
during injection.
