Title: Trap for slugs
Inventor: KRUSSIG JOHANNES
IPC: A01M25/00
Filed: 1990-02-06
Abstract: The slug trap according to Claim 1 comprises:     1 receptacle part     1 roof     2 supports   The receptacle part rests on the ground and serves to hold the anti-slug agent and the slug corpses. The receptacle part is provided with a handle for swivelling it in and out. A groove is used here for insertion into one support, and a second groove arranged transversely to the first groove is used for engagement in the second support. The two supports are provided with gripping hollows and serve for the placing on of the roof, for fixing the receptacle part and for stable anchoring in the ground. The roof covers the receptacle part over a large area and determines the spacing of the supports for fixing the receptacle part. The parts of the slug trap are made of weather-resistant, stable, olive-green plastic. The slug trap offers the following advantages:  - spacious, fully utilisable base surface of the receptacle part - simple and relatively pleasant handling when filling and emptying by means of the removable receptacle part.  - stable anchoring in the ground - the flat construction makes the slug trap inconspicuous and prevents children and domestic animals coming into contact with the anti-slug agent. - protection of the anti-slug agent against the effects of the weather by covering with a roof, the active substances being preserved. - none of the poisonous constituents pass into the ground and it is thus possible to combat slugs even in the vicinity of bodies of water such as garden ponds. h

Abstract: A security module for a radio telephone prevents a KEY code stored in a non-volatile memory from being read out for illicit use. The security module deletes the KEY code stored in the memory when accessed from the outside. Hence, although a KEY code can be written to the memory or the operation of the memory can be tested from the outside, the KEY code is prevented from being read out by an unauthorized person.

Abstract: A method of producing grain oriented silicon steel sheets each having a low watt loss, at an inexpensive cost and a high operational efficiency, wherein surfaces of each silicon steel sheet are given a mirror surface is disclosed. After completion of a finish annealing, forsterite films on the surface of each grain oriented silicon steel sheet are removed therefrom, and thereafter, the silicon steel sheet is annealed within the temperature range of 1000°C or higher in an atmosphere composed of a mixture gas comprising 20 to 80% by volume of hydrogen gas and 0 to 80% by volume of an inert gas, whereby surfaces of the silicon steel sheet are given a mirror surface. Subsequently, tensile stress additive films are formed on the surfaces of the silicon steel sheet, and consequently, the resultant silicon steel sheet exhibits a remarkably reduced watt loss.

Abstract: A semiconductor laser comprises an optical wave guide layer (6) including an AlGaInP active layer (62) and AlGaInP optical confinement layers (61, 63) holding the active layer (62) therebetween. A well structure of an energy band is formed and a compressive stress is applied to the activation layer by the difference between the compositions of the activation layer and the optical confinement layers. 
     Since the compressive stress is applied to the activation layer, the oscillation threshold is lower than that of an un-strained device. Accordingly, the rise of the oscillation threshold due to the addition of Al is compensated and continuous oscillation at room temperature is attained and visible light having a wavelength of 0.67 µm or lower, which has been difficult to attain in the past, is produced. 
     The semiconductor laser having a multi-quantum well structure is manufactured by using AlGaInP or GaInP as a semiconductor material of the multi-quantum well structure and epitaxially growing by periodically changing a supply rate of only In. Through a very simple method of periodically changing the supply rate of only In, a well layer having a compressive stress applied thereto and a barrier layer having a tensile stress applied thereto are alternately grown and the activation layer having the desired strained multi-quantum well structure is produced.

The speed of this process can be improved by initiating (101) a concurrent second autonomous process (106') whereby a signal path is identified from a third subdevice (42) to the destination subdevice. If the first autonomous process arrives at the third subdevice (42), the first process can be terminated (at *) and its identified signal path appended to that identified by the second autonomous process.

Abstract: A square waveform voltage is supplied to a second output circuit of a switching power supply. The second output circuit utilizes a FET, and by controlling the width of a pulse chopped from the square waveform voltage, obtains a direct current output voltage having a set value. However, if there is a time delay in a control signal for driving the FET on/off, fast switching operations cannot be followed and controlled. Also, due to this delay in the control signal, the width of the pulse is limited, and it is difficult to obtain a high secondary output voltage. In the present invention, by providing an auxiliary power supply and a synchronizing signal generator for generating a synchronizing signal having a special waveform, a switching power supply can be realized in which the delay time of the control signal is reduced, and a high secondary output voltage can be obtained.
