Abstract: A sealed nickel-metal hydride storage cell includes
a positive electrode containing nickel as a positive
electrode active material, a negative electrode containing
a hydrogen-absorbing alloy as a negative electrode active
material, a separator interposed between the positive
electrode and the negative electrode and an electrolyte
immersing therein the positive electrode and the negative
electrode. The negative electrode has a theoretical
capacity larger than a theoretical capacity of the positive
electrode so as to provide a charge reserve capacity when the
positive electrode is in a fully charged state and to provide
a discharge reserve capacity when the positive electrode is
in a fully discharged state. A ratio of the charge reserve
capacity to the discharge reserve capacity ranges from 1 :
0 to 1 : 0.5.

Abstract: A RAID-1 system achieves sparing by allocating 1/(2N-1) of each storage device as a
spare region, in a mirrored RAID-1 system having N pair of mated devices. The remaining
portion of each device is partitioned into (2N-2) data partitions. If a device fails, the contents
of its mate are copied into the spare regions of the other devices. This preserves fault tolerance
even if a second device subsequently fails.

Abstract: A gaming machine is described wherein a player first plays a primary game, such as the
spinning and stopping of mechanical or video reels displaying symbols. A plurality of
progressive jackpots is displayed to the player. Upon a jackpot-winning outcome of the
primary game, the number of different progressive jackpots paid to the player depends on the
number of credits bet by the player. In one embodiment, the jackpot above each column of
symbols gets incremented upon a special symbol, such as a credit value, being displayed in that
column. As the jackpots are won, other jackpots are shifted over the columns to replace the
won jackpots. In another embodiment, the determination of which jackpot is won depends on
the outcome of the primary game.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an optical
recording/reproducing apparatus capable of improving medium
usability through a laser power adjusting process while keeping
compatibility with a read only type medium. The optical
recording/reproducing apparatus adjusts laser power using a PCA
till the PCA is used up. After the PCA is used up, an additional
area is reserved at the outermost circumference position, thereafter
when the additional area is used up, a new additional area is reserved
at an inner circumference side of the used up additional area to
adjust laser power. The additional area is reserved at an outer
circumference than a lead-out area, and therefore format
compatibility with a read only type optical disc can be maintained.
The additional area is reserved only when the PCA is used up, thus
capacity compatibility with a read only type optical disc can be
maintained while laser power is adjusted with only the PCA.

Abstract: Content such as computer software, data representing audiovisual works, and electronic
documents can converted from a machine-bound state to user-bound state without
modification to the content data itself. Instead, keys used to access the content are converted
from the machine-bound state to the user-bound state. In particular, the keys are kept in a
passport data structure which can represent either a machine-binding or a user-binding. A
machine-bound passport can be upgraded to a user-bound passport without modifying the
bound content. The private key of the machine-bound passport, in cleartext form, is included
in the user-bound passport and encrypted using a user-supplied password to bind the private
key to the user. In addition, private user information is collected and verified and included in
the user-bound passport. Upgrading a machine-bound passport can be initiated automatically
upon detection that an attempt is made to play back machine-bound content on a machine
other than the one to which the content is bound.

Abstract: Pilot signal transmission sequences and methods are described for use in a multi-sector cell. Pilots in different sectors are transmitted at different known power levels. In adjacent sectors a pilot is transmitted while no pilot is transmitted in the adjoining sector. This represents transmission of a NULL pilot signal. A cell NULL is also supported in which NULL pilots are transmitted in each sector of a cell at the same time. Multiple pilot signal measurements are made. At least two channel quality indicator values are generated from measurements corresponding to at least two pilot signals of different power levels. The two values are transmitted back to the base station which uses both values to determine the transmit power required to achieve a desired SNR at the wireless terminal. The wireless terminal also reports information indicating its location to a sector boundary.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé pour former une anode comprenant du zinc pour une pile air/zinc. Ledit procédé comprend le mélange des particules avec des liants notamment de l'alcool polyvinylique, un tensioactif et de l'eau pour former une pâte humide. Ladite pâte est compactée et moulée sous une forme proche de celle de la cavité de l'anode de la pile, puis chauffée, ce qui permet l'évaporation de l'eau. Une masse de zinc poreuse et solide est formée, les particules de zinc étant maintenues ensemble à l'intérieur d'un réseau comprenant des interstices microscopiques entre les particules de zinc. La masse solide peut être insérée dans la cavité de l'anode de la pile et un électrolyte alcalin aqueux, de préférence, comprenant de l'hydroxyde de potassium, puis ajouté. La masse solide absorbe l'électrolyte aqueux et elle est expansée, de manière à remplir la cavité de l'anode, ceci permettant la formation de l'anode finale.

Filed: 2004-05-06
Abstract: L'invention a trait à une poche remplie de mousse et étanche à l'air, permettant de varier l'intensité d'un massage dans une chaise de massage, un matelas de massage ou un autre dispositif de massage. L'on peut comprimer la poche à partir d'une épaisseur par défaut ou de relâchement, en évacuant l'air de ladite poche. L'on peut réduire l'épaisseur de la poche remplie de mousse jusqu'à une épaisseur d'aplatissement, dans laquelle la mousse est comprimée à l'intérieur de la poche. En cours d'utilisation, la poche remplie de mousse est placée à proximité d'un mécanisme de massage fixe classique d'un dispositif de massage, tel que le dossier d'une chaise de massage. La régulation du volume d'air évacué de la poche permet de régler l'intensité du massage, et ce par la variation de la pression exercée sur l'utilisateur par le mécanisme de massage fixe. Dans le cas d'une chaise de massage, l'utilisateur peut avantageusement se reposer dans la chaise tout en restant confortable lorsqu'il ne souhaite pas de massage, et peut réguler l'intensité du massage procuré par la chaise. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, une pompe active peut être utilisée, afin de gonfler une ou plusieurs poches pouvant comprendre ou non une garniture de mousse. Le nombre, la taille et l'emplacement des poches peuvent varier dans chacun des modes de réalisation.
