Abstract: A telephone system and method allowing a user to set up landline calls
using a mobile telephone. A user initiates outgoing calls by inputting into the
mobile phone the phone numbers of a remote phone of a called party and a
local landline phone convenient for use by the user. A message containing
these phone numbers is sent by the mobile telephone to a remote telephone
call origination platform, which establishes a bridging connection between the
remote phone and the local phone. An incoming call is received by signaling
the user of an incoming call on the mobile phone. The user inputs the number
of a convenient landline phone into the mobile phone, which in turn signals the
remote telephone call origination platform to forward the incoming call to the
designated landline phone. The system and method are adaptable to PBX
systems. Advantages of both mobile and landline phones are combined, and
calling card-like billing/charging can be provided without the inconvenience of
inputting calling card numbers and identification codes.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a robot (10) that can
transfer workpieces, such as silicon wafers, at
increased speeds and accelerations and decelerations.
The robot has a robot wrist (50) associated with the
robot arm (42) for mechanically clamping a workpiece
(302) to a workpiece handling member (60) attached to
the arm. The wafer clamp selectively applies
sufficient force to hold the workpiece and prevent
slippage and damage to the workpiece during rapid
rotation and linear movement of the handling member.
In a particular embodiment, a clamp for securing
silicon wafers uses a flexure assembly (93) to
position and hold the wafer with minimal particle
generation and wafer damage. The clamp is designed so
that the wafers are normally clamped near full
extension of the workpiece handling member to deliver
or pick up a wafer. A particular embodiment uses a
pneumatic cylinder to actuate the flexure assembly so
that the flexure assembly moves outwardly and
rearwardly away from the wafer when actuated at or
near full extension of the workpiece handling member.

Abstract: A disturbance estimating observer is provided, which
estimates a load applied to a servomotor for driving an ejector
axis. When an ejector operates, the disturbance load torque
estimated by the observer is sampled for each specific period (0
to j), and the data DA (0, 0) to DA (i, j) of (i+1) ejector processes
are stored in a table TA in the form of cyclic storage. From
this table TA, average values DB (0) to DB (j) of estimated
disturbance load torques are determined in turn and they are
stored in a table TB. From these average values, upper limit
values DC (0) to DC (j) and lower limit values DD (0) to DD (j) of
a permissible range are stored in tables TC, TD. When the
determined estimated disturbance load torque has exceeded the
permissible range, an abnormal load signal is outputted.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des mutants de Hansenula polymorpha utilisables en tant que cellules hôtes par lesquelles diverses protéines peuvent être produites à grand rendement dans un état intact et un procédé de préparation de protéines recombinantes utilisant lesdites cellules hôtes. Par l'utilisation de divers vecteurs, l'Hansenula polymorpha devient un mutant dépourvu d'aptitude à assimiler du méthanol et incapable d'utiliser le méthanol en tant que source de carbone. Ledit mutant de l'Hansenula polymorpha est utilisé en tant que hôte à haut rendement dans la production de protéines recombinantes sans alimentation continue de méthanol, au moyen d'une cassette d'expression porteuse d'un promoteur capable d'induire l'expression à un faible niveau de concentration de méthanol. Par ailleurs, le mutant est aussi exempt d'activité de carboxypeptidase Y, de protéase Y et/ou de carboxypeptidase α, de sorte que la protéine recombinante d'intérêt n'est point dégénérée en sa terminale carboxyle lorsqu'elle est exprimée dans la cellule, permettant ainsi d'obtenir des protéines recombinantes intactes. L'invention concerne également un procédé d'éjection dans lequel on introduit une cassette d'expression dans un site de gène MOX du mutant d'où elle peut être éjectée, utilisant ainsi le mutant en tant que hôte d'utilisation générale dans la production de diverses protéines d'intérêt.
