Abstract: A tensioning frame (1) for stencils (9) formed of metal foils or plastic films, especially for stencil printing, provided at their margins (8) with perforations (10) for tensioning. The frame includes a tensioning device operated by a pressure medium for driving tensioning bars (5) that carry hooking pins (6) that engage the perforations of the stencil. The tensioning device is formed by an elastically deformable tensioning tube (4) disposed in a frame profile (2) and uniformly supplied with a pressure medium. The tensioning bars lie with the full length of their front sides in contact with the tensioning tube and with their back sides resting against fulcrum nubs (17) which in turn are supported against an extrusion (3) which closes the frame profile. The tensioning bars can be pivoted by inflating and expanding the tensioning tubes to stretch the stencil over a bridge (16) on the frame.

Abstract: This invention provides for duplex use of densitometers. An image
is produced on a substrate, that substrate is brought back through the
transfer station in a duplex fashion (that is, the substrate is inverted),
and a sensor senses the image on the substrate. Beneficially, the
sensor senses one or more parameters such as color registration,
color occlusion/interference, black separation in color REaD printing,
colorimetry, and the overall transfer and fusing process.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for
remedying soil containing a region polluted with a
pollutant which comprises a step of injecting into the
soil a liquid containing a microorganism having an
activity to decompose the pollutant or a liquid
containing the microorganism and an activation agent
for the microorganism decomposing the pollutant,

activation agent or water to pass through, and
replacing void water in the isolated region with said
liquid.

Abstract: Thrombin-based assays are disclosed for determining
antithrombin III (ATIII) present in a plasma sample. The
assays involve a heparin derivative which, like heparin,
effectively enhances the antithrombin activity of ATIII, but
which, unlike heparin, does not substantially enhance the
antithrombin activity of Heparin cofactor II (HCII). In the
present assay, HCII contributes about 15% or less to the
determined antithrombin activity. A lyophilized reagent
composition, useful in the ATIII assay and comprising thrombin
and a heparin derivative, or alternatively comprising thrombin
and heparin, is also disclosed. A high-calibrator plasma
reference useful in the ATIII assays and in assays for other
plasma constituents is also disclosed. Kits employing the
several aspects of the invention are disclosed as well.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a non-volatile semiconductor
storage device having a plurality of non-volatile memory
cells formed by cell transistors (CTr1) in which a first
voltage is applied to a word line (WL) through an address
selection circuit (11) and a second voltage lower than the
first voltage is applied to the transistors (STr1 and STr2)
through a selection line (SL) and/or a bit line (BL). The
voltage applied to the transistors (CTr1, STr1 and STr2) is
lower than that conventionally employed. Accordingly, a
withstand voltage of the transistor (CTr1, STr1 and STr2)
can be reduced to decrease the occupied area of the

Abstract: A bonus game for a slot machine operable in a basic mode and a bonus mode. The bonus
game is entered upon the occurrence of a special start-bonus game outcome in the basic
mode. In the bonus game, a player selects, one at a time, from an array of windows each
associated with a bonus game outcome. Credits are awarded based upon which ones of
the windows are selected. The bonus game ends upon selection of a window associated
with an end-bonus outcome but otherwise continues, allowing the player to make further
selections and accumulate further credits until encountering an end-bonus outcome. In
one embodiment, a bonus game resource obtained in the basic game may be exercised in
the bonus game to affect the bonus game outcome. In one embodiment, for example,
where the occurrence of an end-bonus outcome would otherwise end the bonus game, a
player having a bonus game resource may exercise the bonus game resource upon
encountering an end-bonus outcome to continue playing the bonus game.

cylindrical lens (4). The tilted ellipsoidal rotation surface
reflector (3) is formed of an ellipsoidal rotation surface emerging

axis (X) and assumed on a plane containing the light-source center
axis (X) and the oblique line (Y), is rotated around the light-source
center axis (X). The annular cylindrical lens (4) is obtained by rotating,

Abstract: Disclosed are an electron-beam lithography method
and system having precision in exposure improved by
correcting a beam drift even within the same column of
chips, and an electron-beam lithography system having the
frequency of correcting a beam drift minimized without
causing degradation of precision. In the electron-beam
lithography method and electron-beam lithography system,
a beam drift is measured frequently. When a beam drift
is measured during exposure of each column of chips, a
positional deviation is not corrected at the time but is
corrected, step by step, while a plurality of stripes is
defined. It is thus prevented that a misalignment
between adjoining stripes gets larger. Moreover, a beam
drift is measured a plurality of times in order to
measure a variation in beam drift. If a beam drift is
small, a measurement interval is extended. If a beam
drift is large, the measurement interval is shortened.
