Patent EP-1186788-A2 (EP)
Inventor: AKEMA T
IPC: F16B19/10
Filed: 2001-08-21
Abstract: A clip (1) comprises a pin (7) including a flange (10) and a shank (11), and a bush (9)
including a flange (13) and a shank (14) and having a hollow configuration to receive the
pin shank (11). The bush shank is inserted into holes of a plurality of attachment
members including panels to be connected with each other. Then, the pin shank is
inserted into the hollow bush shank to enlarge the diameter of the bush shank so as to
connect the attachment members each other by the enlarged bush shank and the bush
flange. The bush shank (14) includes a plurality of longitudinally extending legs (31)
which are divided in the circumferential direction of the bush shank. Each of the legs
(31) includes a thin wall portion, which extends longitudinally from the root portion of
the leg adjacent to the bush flange to the intermediate portion (34) of the leg. The thin
wall potion has a thickness less than that of the other leg portion extending
longitudinally from the intermediate portion (34) to the end of the leg. Each of the legs
(31) is formed with a slit (37) extending from the root portion to substantially the
intermediate portion and having a length greater than the maximum thickness of the
attachment members.

Abstract: The invention is directed to an SVO electrochemical
cell having high rate capability. The cathode is
produced by coating a mixture of an active material,
conductive additives, a mixed binder, and an aluminum
foil current collector. The mixed binder consists of a
mixture of heat treated polyamic acid with PVDF. The
use of heat treated polyamic acid maintains adhesion to
the conductive current collector while the PVDF portion
of the binder gives flexibility. A particularly
preferred couple is of a lithium/silver vanadium oxide
(Li/SVO) chemistry and the binder mixture enables an
active slurry of SVO to be coated onto a current
collector without delamination.

Abstract: A twin MONOS memory erase is achieved by applying a positive bias to
the bit diffusion and a negative bias to the control gate. The other word gate and
substrate terminals are grounded. But the voltage of word gate channel adjacent
to the control gate can dramatically influence erase characteristics and speed,
due to the short control gate channel length, which is a few times of the carrier
escape length. A negative voltage application onto the word gate enhances
erase speed, whereas a positive channel potential under the word gate reduces
erase speed. By effective biasing of the memory array, word line or even single
memory cell level erase is possible without area penalty, as compared to erase
blocking by triple well or physical block separations of prior art. Near F-N channel
erase without substrate bias application and program disturb protection by word
line voltage are also included.

Abstract: The invention shows how powder injection molding may be used to form a
continuous body having multiple parts (21,23), each of which has different physical
properties such as magnetic characteristics or hardness. This is accomplished
through careful control of the relative shrinkage rates of these various pads.
Additionally, care is taken to ensure that only certain selected physical properties
are allowed to differ between the parts while others may be altered through
relatively small changes in the composition of the feedstocks used. An additional
application of the present invention is a process for forming, in a single integrated
operation, an object that is contained within an enclosure while not being attached
to said enclosure. This is accomplished by causing the shrinkage rate of the
object to be substantially greater than that of the enclosure. As a result, after
sintering, the object is found to have detached itself from the enclosure and is free
to move around therein.

Abstract: One shedding motion mechanism comprises a guide
frame (5,12), a heald frame (2,11) and linear motors (1,16). A
loom is composed of a plurality of such shedding motion
mechanisms, which are arrayed in series. The narrower
the pitch between adjacent heald frames (2,11) is, the better
it is taking into consideration the magnitude of the
vertical movement of the heald frames (2,11) located further
from the front of the loom. However, since the linear
motors (1,16) have to possess sufficient propulsive force to
drive the heald frames (2,11), such miniaturization has its
limits. Thus, the mounting positions of the linear
motors (1,16) of adjacent shedding motion mechanisms are
shifted so that the linear motors (1,16) may not interfere
with each other. According to an embodiment of this
invention, this can be implemented by vertically
shifting the positions of the shedding motion
mechanisms with respect to each other. Or the
positions of the linear motors (1,16) can be prevented from
overlapping by using heald frame (2,11) with different
horizontal lengths.

Abstract: The present invention provides an optical fiber which has a hollow
portion extending along the axis and which reduces degradation of the optical
characteristics, and a production method thereof. An optical fiber includes a
hollow core portion, and a cladding portion which surrounds the hollow core
portion. The refractive index of the hollow core portion is lower than that of
the cladding portion. The hollow core portion is closed at both ends of the
optical fiber so as to form sealed portions. The sealed portions are formed by,
for example, heating the optical fiber and softening the cladding portion. This
prevents foreign material and the like from entering the hollow core portion.
Ferrules of optical connectors are attached to both end faces of the optical fiber.
