Patent EP-1191615-A2 (EP)
Inventor: OHMURA HITOSHI
IPC: H01M50/134
Filed: 1997-05-09
Abstract: A battery case which has a high quality and is suitable for continuous
forming and a surface-treated steel sheet which can be used suitably for
manufacturing the battery case. The battery case is manufactured by forming, by
the DI or DTR forming method, a surface-treated steel sheet obtained by plating
the external and internal surfaces of an original steel sheet with a nickel-iron
alloy. The nickel-iron alloy plated to both surfaces of the battery
case can reduce the punching load in a cupping process, because the powdering
property can be reduced remarkably. Therefore, the scratching of a die and a
punch caused by metallic contact can be suppressed and the service lives of the
die and the punch are prolonged, and then, the continuous productivity of the
battery case can be improved. In addition, the case has a good lubricant
retaining property, the removing property (stripping property) of the battery
case which is an important factor for the DI or DTR formability can be improved.

Abstract: A three-dimensional recreational card is formed from
a flat card body that is provided along a circumferential
edge with radially spaced slits and between inner ends
of any two adjacent slits with a folding line, so that
each folding line and two slits adjacent to the folding
line together define a flap on the card body. The flaps
are alternately bent upward and downward about the
folding lines to angularly locate above and below the
flat card body and thereby support a central portion
of the card body over a plane. When the central portion
of the card body is subjected to a pressure, the flaps
are partially deformed; and when the pressure is removed,
the deformed flaps generate a restoring elasticity to
bounce the whole recreational card off the plane. When
the recreational card rotates in a throwing game, the
flaps produce sound due to a wind shear effect.

Abstract: A NAND EEPROM having a shielded bit line architecture reduces supply voltage and
ground noise resulting from charging or discharging bit lines. The EEPROM has a PMOS pull-up
transistor and an NMOS pull down transistor connected to a virtual power node. A control
circuit for charging or discharging bit lines controls the gate voltage of the PMOS or NMOS
transistor to limit peak current when charging or discharging bit lines via the virtual power node.
In particular, the control circuit operates the PMOS or NMOS transistor in a non-saturation mode
to limit current. One such control circuit creates a current mirror or applies a reference voltage
to control gate voltages. A programming method sets up bit lines by pre-charging unselected bit
lines via the PMOS pull-up transistor having controlled gate voltage while latches in the
programming circuitry charge or discharge selected bit lines according to respective data bits
being stored. Another bit line setup includes two stages. A first stage pre-charges all bit lines
via PMOS pull-up, and the second stage uses the latches to discharge or leave charged the
selected bit lines depending on respective data bits being stored. The gate voltages of NMOS
transistors in the programming circuitry can be controlled to reduce noise caused by discharging
selected bit lines through the latches.

Abstract: A method and a system for simulating the minimally invasive medical procedure of urological endoscopy. The system is designed to simulate the actual medical procedure of urological endoscopy as closely as possible by providing both a simulated medical instrument, and tactile and visual feedback as the simulated procedure is performed on the simulated patient. Particularly preferred features include a multi-path solution for virtual navigation in a complex anatomy, the simulation of the effect of the beating heart on the urethra as it crosses the illiac vessel, and the simulated operation of a guidewire within the urethra. In addition, the system and method optionally and more preferably incorporate the effect of dynamic contrast injection of dye into the urethra for fluoroscopy. The injection of such dye, and the subsequent visualization of the urological organ system in the presence of the endoscope, must be accurately simulated in terms of accurate visual feedback. Thus, the system and method provide a complete solution to the complex and difficult problem of training students in urological endoscopy procedures.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un briquet pouvant être activé par un utilisateur suivant au moins deux modes de fonctionnement différents. Dans le premier mode, un élément de sollicitation élastique est positionné de manière à s'opposer à un déplacement d'un ensemble d'actionnement, afin que l'utilisateur provoque le dégagement de combustible et allume le briquet seulement quand une force d'activation élevée est appliquée sur l'actionneur. Dans ce premier mode, des utilisateurs non autorisés ne peuvent faire fonctionner le briquet car celui-ci nécessite un niveau prédéterminé de force de l'utilisateur aux fins d'activation du briquet. Dans le second mode, l'élément de sollicitation élastique est déplacé dans une autre position ne s'opposant pas au déplacement de l'ensemble d'actionnement de façon aussi importante que dans le premier mode, de manière que l'utilisateur puisse provoquer le dégagement de combustible et allumer le briquet quand une force d'application faible est appliqué sur l'actionneur. L'utilisateur doit, de préférence, avoir un niveau prédéterminé d'habiletés intellectuelles et/ou de caractéristiques physiques afin de déplacer l'élément de sollicitation élastique de la première vers la seconde position, empêchant ainsi des utilisateurs non autorisés de faire fonctionner le briquet.
