Patent EP-0866493-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SATO NOBUHIKO
IPC: H01L21/20
Filed: 1998-03-13
Abstract: In a semiconductor substrate comprising a silicon
substrate having a porous region, and a semiconductor
layer provided on the porous region, the semiconductor
layer comprises a single-crystal compound and is formed
on the surface of the porous region with its pores
having been sealed at the surface. This substrate can
be produced by a process comprising the steps of heat-treating
the silicon substrate having a porous region,
to seal pores at the surface of the porous region, and
forming a single-crystal compound-semiconductor layer
by heteroepitaxial growth on the porous region having
the pores sealed by the heat treatment. 
     Single-crystal compound-semiconductor films with
less crystal defects can be formed on large-area
silicon substrates in a high productivity, a high
uniformity, a high controllability and a great
economical advantage.

Abstract: A horizontal deflection circuit is provided in which
a large retrace pulse voltage applied to a horizontal
deflection yoke (4) can be taken to reduce the deflection
current and which is capable of easily performing
horizontal image size adjustment and distortion adjustment.

diode (12), and a resonance capacitor (13) is connected in
series to a parallel connection of another switching
element (21), another damper diode (22), and another
resonance capacitor (23), and power is supplied from the
connection point via a fly-back transformer (6). The
comparison value of the retrace pulse voltages applied
across both ends of the switching elements (11,21) is fed
back through a switching element control circuit (40) to
one of the switching elements (21) so that the deflection

Abstract: The present invention provides a squeak preventing shim for a disk
brake for an automobile. 
     In the shim construction there are formed a plurality
of grooves (11) or recesses (12) in rubber layers (2)
disposed on two surfaces of a metal plate (1) in a rubber coat metal. 
     Owing to these grooves (11) or recesses (12), the
apparent transversal elastic modulus of the rubber layers (2)
lowers and a squeak preventing effect due to vibration in a
parallel direction to the shim can be obtained, even if no
lubricant is used. Further, since the longitudinal elastic
modulus varies not so much, it is possible also to prevent
lowering of durability such as buckling, flow, etc.

Abstract: Le seigle d'hiver, après induction à froid ou acclimatation, produit une famille de protéines antigel qui sont similaires aux protéines apparentées aux pathogènes. On procède au clonage de deux de ces protéines, qui sont toutes les deux des protéines de type chitinase, en utilisant des techniques de biologie moléculaire et on les exprime dans des systèmes de bactéries et de levures (Pichia) et dans Arabidopsis thaliana. Les protéines ainsi recombinées ont produit à la fois une activité de chitinase et une activité antigel. Cette invention concerne l'ADN et les séquences de ces protéines antigel de type chitinase, les modification de ces séquences, l'expression de ces protéines et leur application dans l'agriculture, dans l'industrie alimentaire et dans le domaine médical.

Title: Valve ajustable et amortisseurs de vibrations utilisant cette valve
Inventor: JOLLY MARK R
IPC: F16F9/44
Filed: 1998-11-20
Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à une valve ajustable, qui comprend un passage, un fluide réagissant aux champs de forces s'écoulant dans ce passage, et un moyen d'ajustement de l'écoulement du fluide dans ledit passage. Cette valve est de préférence utilisée dans un amortisseur de vibrations. L'un des amortisseurs envisagé comprend un corps, un piston, une première et une seconde chambre, une valve d'amortissement, une tige de piston, une chambre auxiliaire, un passage établissant la communication avec la chambre auxiliaire, un fluide réagissant aux champs de forces, une valve pour le fluide réagissant aux champs de forces, servant à commander l'écoulement dudit fluide en direction de la chambre auxiliaire, et un moyen de pressurisation. On prévoit de préférence également une cloison de cavité comportant un fluide réagissant aux champs de forces d'un côté et un fluide ne réagissant pas aux champs de forces de l'autre côté. Cette configuration permet une réduction du fluide magnétorhéologique, ce qui permet l'utilisation de fluides hydrauliques moins coûteux et plus légers dans la valve d'amortissement du piston. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, l'amortisseur comprend un moyen d'ajustement mécanique servant à ajuster manuellement le niveau d'amortissement. L'ajustement est réalisé par un aimant permanent mobile, par une pièce polaire mobile, par un ensemble pôle et aimant mobile ou par une dérivation magnétique. L'ajustement manuel peut être réalisé sous la forme d'un bouton, d'un levier ou d'un actuateur à câble. Dans une variante, le flux magnétique est créé par un électro-aimant. Cette valve et cet amortisseur trouvent une application dans tous les systèmes de suspension où un corps d'amortisseur est fixé à un élément de châssis, tel qu'un cadre de bicyclette, et où la tige de piston est reliée à un élément de suspension, tel qu'un bras oscillant de bicyclette.

Abstract: A double-tone printer includes an image scanner
which inputs an image signal representing an original. The
image signal is converted into a density signal according
to a density correction curve for a light color and a
stencil master making signal for the light color is made by
binary-coding the density signal. Further the image signal
is converted into a density signal according to a density
correction curve for a dark color and a stencil master
making signal for the dark color is made by binary-coding
the density signal components. Images of the respective
stencil masters made on the basis of the stencil master
making signals for the light color and the dark color are
printed on a printing paper in light color ink and dark
color ink so that the printed images in the respective
color inks overlap each other. The density correction
curve for the light color gives a print density which
increases with increase in the value of the image signal in
a first range where the value of the image signal is lower
than a threshold value and is a fixed maximum print density
in a second range where the value of the image signal is
not lower than the threshold value, and the density
correction curve for the dark color gives a print density
which is a fixed minimum print density in the first range
and increases with increase in the value of the image
signal in the second range.
