Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FI98/00206 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 6, 1999 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 6, 1999 PCT Filed Mar. 6, 1998 PCT Pub. No. WO98/40304 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 17, 1998The invention relates to a procedure and an apparatus intended to be used in elevator installation to install the overspeed governor (28) for the time it takes to install the elevator. According to the invention, when the elevator is being installed, at least one suspension element (17) is fastened to the upper part of the elevator shaft (2), an element (30) supporting the overspeed governor (28) is fitted to the suspension element and the position of the overspeed governor (28) at least in the vertical direction is so adjusted that it corresponds to the final placement of the overspeed governor (28). After the elevator guide rails (56) have been installed, the overspeed governor is removed from the suspension element (17) and fixed to a guide rail.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of determining the channel impulse response (CIR) of a communication system, such as the CIR of radio channels of a digital mobile radio network (GSM network). In particular, the present invention relates to determining the CIR based on the reception of a known training sequence. The present invention is based on the realisation that the resolution and dynamic range of the technique based on simple correlation can be improved by using a newly developed "line removal" technique. This involves taking the CIR as determined in the simple correlation, and producing a refined CIR in which the refined CIR is determined by locating the true path delay represented by the peaks resultant from the simple correlation.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of producing an expanded
tobacco material. According to the method, a tobacco
material (TM) is fed into a pressure vessel, (11),
followed by pressurizing the interior of the pressure
vessel (11) with a carbon dioxide gas to a predetermined
impregnation pressure. Then, a liquid carbon
dioxide (21) is supplied from above the tobacco
material (TM) into the pressure vessel through a
sintered metal plate (13), etc., while maintaining the
impregnation pressure, thereby saturating the interior
of the pressure vessel (11) with a carbon dioxide gas
generated by vaporization of the supplied liquid carbon
dioxide, and cooling the tobacco material by the latent
heat of vaporization of the liquid carbon dioxide,
so as to impregnate the tobacco material with carbon
dioxide. The tobacco material impregnated with carbon
dioxide is brought into contact with a hot gaseous
stream within a gaseous stream dryer so as to expand
the tobacco material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a metal layer with open porosity and with a maximum thickness of 500  mu m, whereby the diameter of the through pores is at most a twelfth of the thickness of the layer. In order to produce a metal layer with open porosity, a suspension containing metal powder, dispersant as well as substances for adjusting the viscosity is deposited in layers on a support, dried and then sintered. The thickness of the suspension layer deposited on the support must be such that the thickness of the metal layer after sintering is at least three times the diameter of the metal powder.

Abstract: An excellent antibacterial property is afforded upon a metallic
article by simple steps of coating a dispersion liquid or a solution of fine
particles made of an antibacterial ingredient on the surface of the metallic
article and pressing the resulting coated surface of the metallic article under a
non-heated condition or rubbing the resulting coated surface of the metallic
article. In addition, a conventional rolling step or the like can be used itself
without any change in the above treatment, which is economically extremely
advantageous. Furthermore, since the antibacterial metallic article according
to the present invention is obtained under the non-heated condition, the
antibacterial ingredient is not deteriorated. Further, since the antibacterial
property is not lost through some abrasion, excellent antibacterial property
can be exhibited over an extended time period. Further, there is no fear that
surface characteristics of the metallic article, for example, a tone of color will
change.

Abstract: A method and system for providing non-sequential access to visual information that is being digitally encoded in a digital data stream is provided. The digital data stream includes a sequence of video frame data. Each video frame data in the sequence of video frame data corresponds to a video frame of the visual information. The digital data stream is generated with an encoder. The encoder generates tag data that indicates locations of the video frame data within the digital data stream. The digital data stream is stored at a location from which the digital data stream is delivered to a client. Tag data is stored at a location from which the tag data may be used to provide the client non-sequential access to the digital data stream. A selected set of video frames within the digital data stream is selected based on the tag data in response to a request for non-sequential access by the client. A second digital data stream that includes the video frame data that corresponds to each video frame of the selected set of video frames is constructed and transmitted to the client.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système logiciel qui est utilisé pour étendre les attributs de classification dans l'analyse de données de production. L'éditeur de formule (810) permet à l'utilisateur de créer un cadre de formule (820). La formule est appliquée au cadre de fichier (830) via les modules d'application (840), et à l'aide du cadre de l'interface utilisateur graphique (850), une page (860) est produite en format Windows. Le cadre de formule (820) assure également la fonction d'interface avec le service d'ordonnancement et d'événements (870), permettant de la sorte l'exécution et la publication automatiques des analyses des données de production à des moments déterminés dans le futur. Le logiciel fonctionne avec une plus grande souplesse dans un environnement Windows orienté objet car il permet à l'utilisateur d'ajouter des classifications de défauts par entraînement et largage à l'aide de la souris. Lors de l'exécution d'une classification typologique, une carte de production est filtrée de façon que les données non relatives aux défauts sont supprimées en fonction de la classification choisie, ce qui rend alors l'attribut de défaut facilement visible.

Abstract: A semiconductor processing method includes forming a conductively doped plug (28, 30) of semiconductive material within a first insulative layer (26). A barrier layer (25) to out diffusion of dopant material from the semiconductive material is formed over the doped plug (28, 30). Examples include undoped oxide, such as silicon dioxide, and Si3N4. A second insulative layer (32) is formed over the barrier layer (25). Conductive material (60) is formed through the second insulative layer (32) and into electrical connection with the doped plug (30). In another implementation, spaced first and second conductively doped regions (28, 30) of semiconductive material are formed. A barrier layer (25) to out diffusion of dopant material from the semiconductive material is formed over at least one of the first and second regions (28, 30), and preferably over both. Then, a capacitor having a capacitor dielectric layer (42) comprising Ta2O5 is formed over the other of the first and second regions.

Abstract: A box-shaped shielding cover is disposed at the surface of a
developing solution contained in a developing tank and the bottom wall of
the cover ensures that contact between the developing solution and the air is
kept to a minimum and that deterioration of the processing solution due to
carbon dioxide and evaporation of the water are controlled. Moreover, the
close contact between the top portion of the peripheral wall of the shielding
cover and the top cover covering the top portion of the PS plate processor
cuts off the flow of air over the developing tank (the air flowing from the
insertion aperture to the discharge aperture). Accordingly, the airtightness of
the seal in the developing section is enhanced, there is minimal deterioration
of the developing solution due to carbon dioxide, and the rate of
replenishment of the developing solution is reduced.
