Abstract: A plasma display device is driven by dividing a plurality of row electrodes into first and second row groups. A first row group of electrodes are divided into a plurality of first sub-groups, and a second row group of row electrodes are divided into a plurality of second sub-groups. During a first subfield of a first group of subfields, non-light emitting cells are selected from light emitting cells of a first sub-groups and light emitting cells of a second sub-groups are sustain-discharged during a first period. In addition, during the first subfield, the non-light emitting cells are selected from the second sub-group, and the light emitting cells of a first sub-group are sustain-discharged during a second period. With such an operation, a length of one subfield can be reduced because another row group is sustain-discharged while one row group is being selected as the non-emitting cells.

Abstract: The present invention enables to update a program in a storage control device (1) while processing access requests, without imposing any burden on a host (5). When execution of updating of a program is commanded from a management terminal (6), an update control unit (8) starts within the controller (2A) which is the object of updating. After a host I/F unit (2A1) has been connected to an access request processing unit (2B3) within another controller (2B) by a connection control unit (7), the update control unit (8) updates a program which is stored in a program memory (2A4) or a boot disk. When this updating is completed, the update control unit (8) reconnects the host I/F unit (2A1) to its access processing unit (2A3) by the connection control unit. Since the stored contents of data memories (2A5, 2B5) are synchronized, the other access request processing unit can continue processing access requests from the host in place one access request processing unit.

Abstract: The invention refers to a new material combination in a sandwich structure for the construction of a lightweight platform with good mechanical performance. Also the invention refers to the production method of this complex structure in such a way that very good structural performance is achieved even to local loads. In this invention metal sheets in the outer surface and light core (e.g. foam from thermoplastic or thermoset polymer) internally are combined for the first time. For the protection of the sidewalls and the decrease of buckling of the metal sheets the sheets are folded in order the upper and lower sheets almost cover the foam. These materials are bonded together with an epoxy or other type of strong low-viscosity adhesive in order to attain very good wetting of the common surfaces under compression and vacuum conditions.

Abstract: Exercise equipment includes a housing having a structural surface defining an arcuate path, multiple pairs of pulleys positioned along the arcuate path, each pair of pulleys having passed between them a cable the proximal end of which is located outside the curved path, the distal end of the cable being coupled to a source of resistance within the housing such that when the proximal end of the cable is pulled by a user, the resistance exerts a counterforce to the cable. Alternatively, a single cable may be provided which exits through a movable trolley which is fixable at different positions along the arcuate path. Further exercise equipment includes a cable means attached at its distal end to a resistance means cooperating with pulley means for switching between a 2:1 mechanical advantage and a 1:1 ratio.

Abstract: Beim Waschen und Entwässern von Wäschestücken fällt am Ende des Waschvorgangs Behandlungsflüssigkeit an, die noch unverbrauchte waschaktive Substanzen enthält. Diese werden bislang, gegebenenfalls nach einer Neutralisation, mit der Behandlungsflüssigkeit in den Abfluss geleitet. Diese bekannte Vorgehensweise wirkt sich ungünstig auf die Wirtschaftlichkeit des Waschvorgangs aus. 
     Die Erfindung sieht es vor, aus der nach dem Waschvorgang von den Wäschestücken abgetrennten Behandlungsflüssigkeit verbrauchte waschaktive Substanzen zu entfernen. Dies geschieht durch eine Präzisionsfiltration, bei der nur die durch Schmutzaufnahme aus dem Waschvorgang größeren verbrauchten waschaktiven Substanzen aus der Behandlungsflüssigkeit ausgefiltert werden, aber nicht die eine kleinere Partikelgröße aufweisenden unverbrauchten waschaktiven Substanzen. Diese können zusammen mit der Behandlungsflüssigkeit für einen nachfolgenden Waschvorgang wieder verwendet werden.
