Patent EP-0772066-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KITANI AKIRA
IPC: G02C7/02
Filed: 1996-04-18
Abstract: A progressive power multifocal lens designed by attaching importance to an intermediate vision and a near vision in such a manner as to ensure broad intermediate vision viewing portion and near vision viewing portion and to have a well-balanced viewing zone among the distance, near and middle portions, whereby a resultant image of an object is little varied or fluctuated, especially, in lateral directions. For example, a far vision power measuring position is located at a point which is 14 mm upwardly away from the geometrical center of the lens. Moreover, a near vision power measuring position is located at a point which is 17.5 mm downwardly away from the geometrical center and further is 2.5 mm inwardly to the nose of a wearer. Furthermore, an eye-point position, through which a visual line runs when the wearer looks to the front thereof, is located at the geometrical center. Additionally, assuming that the far vision power measuring position is selected as a center and that a direction, in which a horizontal half-line extends rightwardly from 
the far vision power measuring position, is determined as a reference direction whose azimuth angle is 0, a nearly sectorial domain corresponding to azimuth angles of 30 to 150 degrees is used as a far viewing distinct vision zone in which the astigmatism is not more than 0.5 diopters irrespective of the value of an addition. Further, a principal fixation line running through the far vision power measuring position, the eye-point position and the near vision power measuring position divides the surface of the lens into a nose-side part and an ear-side part in such a way that these parts are asymmetric in the horizontal or lateral direction.

Abstract: First cooling air (50) enters an engine room (1) through a cooling air inlet port (7a) from the exterior of the engine room (1), and is throttled by a suction tube (8a) after passing heat exchangers such as an intercooler (6a), an oil cooler (6b) and a radiator (6c), followed by entering a centrifugal fan (4). The first cooling air (50) is then blown off toward an outer circumference of the centrifugal fan (4). Second cooling air enters the engine room (1) through cooling air inlet ports (7b, 7b) from the exterior of the engine room (1), and flows around an engine (5), various electric equipments such as an alternator (10), and an oil pan (14) while cooling them. The second cooling air is then throttled by a suction tube (8b) before entering the centrifugal fan (4), and blown off toward the outer circumference of the centrifugal fan (4). Two streams of the first and second cooling air (50, 51) are discharged to the exterior through an exhaust port (9). This arrangement enhances the degree of sealing on the engine (5) side to reduce noise, and improves the effect of cooling the electric equipments (10) for higher reliability of the electric equipments (10).

Abstract: In the manufacture of a large-area electronic device, thin-film circuit elements such as TFTs are formed with separate islands (1a,1b) of a crystallised semiconductor film (1) on a device substrate (100,101). The method includes directing an energy beam (50) towards a grid (30) of masking stripes (32) and apertures (31) formed on the semiconductor film (1), to heat the semiconductor film (1) so as to crystallise it both at the apertures (31) and under the masking stripes (32). The masking stripes (32) are located over areas of the semiconductor film (1) where channel regions (11) of the TFT are to be formed. Each aperture (31) between the masking stripes (32) has a width ( S1 ) of less than the wavelength (λ) of the energy beam (50) of step (c). The length of the channel region (11) below each masking stripe (32) is crystallised by diffraction of the energy beam (50) at the apertures as well as by thermal diffusion from the areas heated by the energy beam (50). The method also includes implanting dopant ions (40) in the semiconductor film (1) at the apertures (31) while using the masking stripes (32) to mask underlying areas against implantation, thereby providing a dopant concentration for source and drain regions (12) and (13) and intermediate conductive regions (14) of the TFT. At least part of the grid (30) of masking stripes (32) on the insulating film 2 is retained as an insulated gate structure of the TFT. Such a method simplifies the manufacturing process by combining steps for crystallising the semiconductor film (1) and for forming the TFT structure, and the crystallising process is rendered more efficient by appropriate choice of the material and dimensions of the grid (30), its apertures (31) and masking stripes (32).

Abstract: A protein-containing feedstuff is produced by subjecting a material that contains vegetable
protein to a heat-treatment; washing the resultant material one or more times, and
preferably in a counter-current manner, with water, generally at pH of less than 7 and at a
temperature of from 5 to 50°C; and subjecting the washed material to a farther heat-treatment,
preferably a thermal drying step in which the protein-containing material may
be dried to a moisture content of 12% by weight or less. Antinutritional factors such as
mono-, di- and oligosaccharides may thereby be removed whilst retaining important
nutrients such as isoflavones. Phytase may be added to the washwater in order to reduce
the content of phytate in the product. Suitable starting materials include defatted soy flour,
soy meal and texturized soy products. The feedstuff is suitable for the feeding not only of
fish or crustaceans in aquaculture, but also of other livestock, for example piglets. The
product may also be used for human nutrition.
