IPC: B29C70/88
Filed: 1995-02-21
Granted: 1999-04-29
Abstract: A wire, generally made of steel and used to make composite elements of elastomeric material, is submitted to an electrodeposition process in an electrolytic bath for being coated with a zinc/cobalt alloy in which the average cobalt content is lower than 1%. In the coating thickness made of the zinc/cobalt alloy, different cobalt concentrations exist, that is a 2% to 3% concentration at the area close to the metal and a concentration as low as 0,5% maximum at the overlying area. Adhesion promoters for example consisting of cobalt neodecanate, added to the elastomeric material, promote the adhesion of said elastomeric material to the wire.

Title: A game machine and a memory cartridge
Inventor: OKADA SATORU
IPC: H04R3/12
Filed: 1993-06-10
Granted: 1995-09-28
Abstract: An electronic gaming device (10) (e.g., a so-called "videogame" type portable electronic game including a raster scanned liquid crystal display panel (14) and user controls (18)) includes a pseudo-stereo sound generator (58). Plural independent sound generating circuits (541-544) produce audio signals under microcomputer (22) control and the microcomputer (22) may route the outputs of the plural sound generating circuits (541-544) independently to one or the other (or both) of two independent audio channel outputs. Pseudo-stereo sound is thus produced when a stereo headset (64) is used to listen to the sounds produced. A selecting circuit (202) automatically mixes the two audio channel (SO1, SO2) outputs together and provides them in monaural form to an internal loudspeaker (62) when no such stereophonic headset (64) is connected. The microcomputer (22) controls generation of sounds and music in accordance with a musical pitch (frequency) data structure (312), a musical duration data structure (314) and a musical score data structure (316) stored in the interchangeable memory cartridge (16). The musical score data structure (316) specifies pitch and duration in terms of address offsets into the pitch and duration data structures (312, 314). Program control instructions (310) controlling sound generation thus need not explicitly specify the actual control data written to the sound generator (58) to produce musical notes of desired pitches, durations and other characteristics.
