IPC: G09G3/20
Filed: 2000-12-05
Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a
plasma display device that enables high-luminosity display
while keeping consumption of power low. After causing
reset discharge to form a wall charge in the dielectric
layer of all discharge cells of a plasma display panel,
pixel data are written by causing selective erasure
discharge to erase, in accordance to pixel data
corresponding to an input video signal the wall charge
formed in each discharge cell, and sustaining pulses, with
a voltage value of at least 200 volts, are applied
alternately to each row electrode of each row electrode
pair of the plasma display panel to repeatedly cause
sustained discharge to occur only in discharge cells having
residual wall charge.

Abstract: In a nailing machine capable of feeding not only
wire-connected nails but also nails connected by a plastic
sheet into the nail ejecting opening of a nose portion, the
nail shank of one of the wire-connected nails is supplied
with shifting the nail shank toward the welded portion of
the wire-connected nail with respect to the center of the
nail ejecting opening. Further, depressions for containing
cutoff pieces of the wire-connected nails are formed in the
shifted side of the nail shank, and discharging opening for
sheet leaves of the nails connected by the plastic sheet is
shifted so that the front end of a driver is prevented from
hammering the connecting sheet leaf by guiding the
connecting sheet leaf in a direction opposite to the
direction of shifting the nail shank of the wire-connected
nail.

Abstract: Methods for producing ruthenium perovskite
represented by a chemical formula LaRuO 3 , wherein La is
lanthanum to which twelve oxygen ions are coordinated, Ru
is ruthenium to which six oxygen ions are coordinated,
and O is oxygen, which comprises reacting an aqueous
mixed metal ion solution containing metal ions of La and
Ru with a precipitate-forming liquid in a reaction
container to co-precipitate hydroxides of La and Ru, and
subjecting the precipitate to a heat treatment.
Alternatively, the co-precipitated mass is deposited on a
suitable carrier and subsequently heated to form
supported LaRuO 3 . The co-precipitated La and Ru
hydroxides can also be directly formed on a carrier by
precipitation from a homogenous solution containing La,
Ru and urea. This provides a uniform dispersion of co-precipitated
hydroxides on a carrier, subsequent heating
of which results in formation of supported LaRuO 3 . The
materials thus obtained are to be used as efficient
catalysts for certain reactions of environmental
importance. These synthesis methods can also be used for
the improved synthesis of LaRuO 3  for other applications.

Abstract: Dyeable and dyed filaments have a core and a sheath which entirely
surrounds the core. The core is formed of a core polymer
which is susceptible to dyeing by a dye bath chemical, while the
sheath is formed of a sheath polymer which is resistant to dyeing
by the dye bath chemical. When the filament is brought into contact
with a dye bath containing the dye chemical, the dye
chemical in the dye bath will physically diffuse or migrate
through the sheath polymer to cause the core polymer to be dyed a
color of the dye bath chemical, while the sheath polymer is substantially
undyed thereby.

lines, and display elements that are driven by scanning signals and data signals; a scanning line
drive circuit that simultaneously selects multiple scanning lines from among said scanning lines and
applies scanning voltage possessing a specified selection voltage pattern; and a data line drive
circuit that determines the voltage to be applied to said data lines based on the comparison between
said selection voltage pattern and the display data which indicates ON/OFF of the display elements
of said matrix panel, and that applies the determined voltage to said data lines. When the number of
scanning lines to be simultaneously selected is h and the total number of scanning lines is n, the
data line drive circuit possesses n/h shift registers for storing the data that specifies the scanning
line to be selected. The device further has a decoder for generating the signal that indicates the
scanning line to be driven and the drive voltage level by decoding both the data that specifies the
voltage level to be applied to the scanning line and the data that is output from said n/h shift
registers.

Abstract: When an air excess rate is controlled to be reduced based upon an early activation
demand of an exhaust gas purification apparatus or a regeneration demand of NOx trap
catalyst at a state immediately after an engine has started from at a cold condition, a
fuel injection state (injection timing of a main injection, a pilot injection quantity, an

Abstract: An ultra-wideband (UWB) communications system combines the techniques
of a transmitted reference (TR) and a multiple access scheme called delay
hopping (DH). Combining these two techniques using UWB signaling using a
continuous noise transmitted waveform avoids the synchronization difficulties
associated with conventional approaches. This TR technique is combined
with the DH multiple access technique to create a UWB communications
scheme that has a greater multiple access capacity than does the UWB TR
technique by itself.

Abstract: A material to reduce the effects of trauma received from the impact of a projectile. One embodiment is a needle-punched, non-woven material including at least one type of ballistic fibers selected and oriented to provide a cushioning effect and maintain a high compressive restitution constant. A percentage of the fibers are oriented with at least their ends lying approximately perpendicular to the fabric plane and/or oriented to lie in a waveform generally along or parallel to the fabric plane. This enables the ends of the fibers lying perpendicular to the fabric plane to cushion the impact from the projectile by dissipating energy through compressional resistance, and the fibers along the fabric plane to reduce energy through dispersal along fiber lines, thereby reducing the trauma resulting from an impact.
