Inventor: KOMATSU FUMITO
IPC: F04B1/053
Filed: 2018-09-06
Abstract: Provided is a rotary cylinder device in which a piston body of a piston unit is shortened in the lengthwise direction to reduce the installation area and number of guide bearings is reduced to the required minimum so as to decrease number of parts, thereby promoting a reduction in size and improving the durability of the device. As a solution, a plurality of guide shafts (24) which are disposed parallel to an input/output shaft (a first input/output shaft (4a), a second input/output shaft (4b)) are assembled in a case body (3) which holds a cylinder (5) in which first and second piston sets (14), (15) move reciprocally. A first guide bearing (25), which abuts both side surfaces of a first piston body (14a) and receives only lateral pressure generated by the reciprocal movement, and a second guide bearing (26), which abuts both side surfaces of a second piston body (15a) and receives only lateral pressure generated by the reciprocal movement, are assembled coaxially and separated in an axial direction on each guide shaft (24).

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices related to techniques to access a self-selecting memory device are described. A self-selecting memory cell may store one or more bits of data represented by different threshold voltages of the self-selecting memory cell. A programming pulse may be varied to establish the different threshold voltages by modifying one or more time durations during which a fixed level of voltage or current is maintained across the self-selecting memory cell. The self-selecting memory cell may include a chalcogenide alloy. A non-uniform distribution of an element in the chalcogenide alloy may determine a particular threshold voltage of the self-selecting memory cell. The shape of the programming pulse may be configured to modify a distribution of the element in the chalcogenide alloy based on a desired logic state of the self-selecting memory cell.
