Inventor: FUJI KOJIRO
IPC: C21B13/10
Filed: 1999-03-23
Abstract: Iron oxide agglomerates incorporated with the carbonaceous material having a grain size within a range of about 10 to 30 mm are prepared upon production of reduced iron agglomerates. Then, the iron oxide agglomerates incorporated with the carbonaceous material were laid thinly at a laying density of less than 1.4 kg/m 2 /mm or lower on a hearth of a moving hearth furnace. Subsequently, the iron oxide agglomerates are heated rapidly such that the surface temperature of the iron oxide agglomerates reaches 1200°C or higher within one-third of the retention period of time of the iron oxide agglomerates in the moving hearth furnace. Then, the iron oxide agglomerates are reduced till the metallization ratio thereof reaches 85% or higher to form reduced iron agglomerates and then the reduced iron agglomerates are discharged out of the moving hearth furnace. With the procedures, reduced iron agglomerates of a high average quality can be obtained at a high productivity.

Abstract: A two-sided flattening apparatus configured to be able
to continuously change the pressing force of an upper platen
to the workpiece and thereby able to prevent damage to the
workpiece at the time of contact and able to set the pressing
force of the upper platen on the workpiece to a desired
value, provided with a lower platen (1), an upper platen (2),
and an elevator mechanism (3). A main elevator (6) of the
elevator mechanism is formed by a cylinder (60), while a sub
elevator (5) of the elevator mechanism is formed by air
bags (70), hoses (71), and an air pump (72). The air
bags (70) are connected to a connecting meter from the upper
platen (2). By making the air bags (70) expand to make the
piston rods (62) of the cylinders (60) contract, the upper
platen (2) is made to descend to a position in close
proximity to the workpiece (w). Suitably thereafter, the air
bags (70) are made to contract to make the upper platen (2)
softly contact the workpiece (w). The air bags (70) are made
to further contract to make the pressing force of the upper
platen (2) on the workpiece (w) continuously increase.

Abstract: A pressure regulator (9) is used in a pipe line system (1) to adjust the rotation speed of an electrical compressor or motor that pumps fluid through the system. In order to maintain the pressure within the maximum and minimum values, as determined from a predetermined characteristic curve relating values of pressure to mass flow rate, an electrical signal with a value proportional to the mass flow rate is applied to the regulator. This uses the electrical signal to set the motor speed. Any deviation in pressure value from the theoretical value can be compensated by the regulator device, which adjusts the motor speed up or down as necessary.

IPC: G06K7/00
Filed: 1999-06-23
Abstract: A method is disclosed of radio-identifying a plurality of
objects, each provided with a passive transponder (3)
transmitting an individual code to a common reader (4), the
latter remote-powering the transponders and handling an
anti-collision protocol for code blocks issuing
simultaneously from the transponders. The simultaneous
transmission of the blocks is produced in a transcoding
step whereby the codes are associated in a biunique way
with the position of a pulse within a frame. For each pulse
read, the protocol creates a node associated with the
original code. Thereafter, the reader broadcasts a serial
information containing the position inside the extended
code and the contents of one of the blocks read. The
transponders compare these fields with a local pointer to
the read address of a memory word that contains the code
blocks, and with the pointed block. Only those transponders
for which a match is ascertained will transmit a subsequent
block. The aggregate of all these originate further nodes
which are joined to a previous one by an equal number of
branches of a search tree that discloses all of the
existing codes once it has been gone through.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for handling the refresh of
a DRAM array so that the refresh has no effect on the
external access. This allows an SRAM compatible memory
to be built from DRAM (or 1-Transistor) cells. By
utilizing the unused external access time, for
performing the infrequent memory refresh, there is no
penalty on the peak bandwidth requirement of the memory
array.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include an optical fiber laser system with a cascaded
Raman resonator (CRR) or other suitable Raman frequency shifting device having a length
of optical fiber with at least one input pump reflector, a series of Raman-Stokes order
reflectors and an output reflector therein. The reflectors are written to provide sufficient
conversion efficiency despite the use of the cascaded Raman resonator with differing pump
laser wavelengths. The reflectors are written not necessarily in correspondence with the
gain maxima of the intermediate Stokes orders , but instead are written to reflect with less
than maximum gain conversion intensity, yet in a manner that allows different pump laser
wavelengths to be converted thereby. When operating the cascaded Raman resonators at
sufficiently high pump powers, input pump reflectors are not necessary. Cascaded Raman
resonators designed in accordance with embodiments of the invention are useful with
different pump laser wavelengths. For example, 1480 nm cascaded Raman resonators,
which conventionally are used only with 1117 nm pump lasers, are useful according to
embodiments of the invention with 1100 nm pump lasers as well. Similarly, 1450 nm
cascaded Raman resonators, which conventionally are used only with 1100 nm pump lasers,
are useful according to embodiments of the invention with 1117 nm pump lasers as well.
Amplification devices according to embodiments of the invention are power scaleable in a
manner sufficient to provide optical fiber amplification at a desired output wavelength for a
given plurality of pump lasers having different operating wavelengths. Also, the devices
according to embodiments of the invention are less complex and less expensive than
conventional arrangements.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a class of molecules specified as novel multipurpose antibody derivatives. This class of molecules is created by heterodimerization of two constituting components. Heterodimerization is obtained by the specific heterotypic interaction of a chosen VH-CH1 combination of immunoglobulin domains, with a chosen VL-CL combination of immunoglobulin domains. The appropriate VH and VL domains in the VHCH1 and VLCL context, a binding specificity can be constitituted by the heterodimerization scaffold itself. One or both of the comprising VHCH1 and VLCL chains can thus be extended at either the N- or the C-terminus or both with other molecules, such as a toxin polypeptide, an enzyme, a hormone, a cytokine, a signaling molecule, or a single chain linked Fv fragment with the same or a different specificity.

mold clamping force adjustment mode, positions of the movement member
during movement in accordance with a predetermined position pattern and
a mold clamping force generated at each of the positions are stored in 
the memory means in a relational manner. In a mold clamping force
generation mode, positions of the movement member corresponding to the
mold clamping force pattern are read from the memory means, and the
drive means is driven on the basis of the read positions of the
movement member. Therefore, the movement member can be moved to a
precise position corresponding to a mold clamping force, resulting in
