Abstract: Disclosed are a processing method and apparatus
for removing a native oxide film formed on a surface of
an object W. The surface of the object is exposed to
activated gases formed from a N 2  gas (52), a H 2  gas
(54) and a NF 3  (83) gas to bring about a reaction
between the native oxide film formed on the surface of
the object and the activated gases. As a result, a
reaction film is formed. The reaction film thus formed
is sublimated by heating (36) the object to a predetermined
temperature, thereby to remove the native oxide
film from the surface of the object. For forming the
activated gases, the N 2  gas (52) and H 2  gas (54) are
converted into a plasma and activated to form active
species, followed by adding the NF 3  gas (80) to the
active species to form an activated gas containing the
NF 3  gas.

Abstract: A color space is divided into a plurality of
blocks, and transformed values of coordinates of vertexes
of each block are calculated previously and recorded in a
transformed value table. In a factor table, vertexes,
which have weight factors other than 0, and the weight
factors of these vertexes are recorded with respect to each
of positions in a block. A transformed value of a picture
element value of each of picture elements, which constitute
a color image, is calculated with a simple interpolating
operation by utilizing only the vertexes, which have weight
factors other than 0, and in accordance with the transformed
values, which have been recorded in the transformed value
table, and the vertexes and their weight factors, which have
been recorded in the factor table. A direct mapping
technique is thus improved, and image transforming
processing is carried out quickly.

Abstract: To inhibit even under high moisture conditions a
short circuit occuring in a connection terminal of a
semiconductor device adopting an active matrix display
method, especially of LCD panel, due to interterminal
current leak caused by corrosion of a metal wire. 
     MEANS FOR SOLUTION 
     An interterminal anti-short-circuiting pattern is
formed in an upper metal wire included in a connection
terminal (3), for connecting to external driving LSI and
the like, located on the projected portion of a bottom
glass substrate (2). This interterminal anti-short-circuiting
pattern includes recess (4) and island (5). On
the island (5) a contact hole (12a) formed through a
protective insulating film is located. The protective
insulating film has high resistence to water penetration
and accordingly, is effective to inhibit infiltration
of water from outside. When corrosion occurs in the
island (5), spread of the corrosion can be shut off by
the recess surrounding the island and kept only in
the island (5). Namely, metal ions eluted from the island
never spread outside the island (5), and consequently,
short circuit occurrence due to interterminal current
leak can be inhibited.

Abstract: A fire alarm system comprises control panel 13, first and
second two-wire alarm circuits 17,18 extending from the control
panel 13 into respective zones, each alarm circuit comprising
a plurality of combined detector and sounder devices 10
connected in parallel across the wires 11,12 of the circuit.
Upon detection of smoke or heat in one of the zones, the
activated device 10 is arranged to draw a pulsed current from
the control panel 13, which can be detected to trigger an alarm
condition in the control panel 13, whereupon the control panel
13 applies an alarm signal circuit to the alarm circuits 17,18
of both zones, so as to energise the sounders of all devices
10. The pulsed current that is drawn by the devices 10 when
they are activated by heat or smoke means that any further
change in current that is caused when more devices 10 are
activated as the fire spreads will be detected by the control
panel 13, despite the heavy current being drawn by the
energised sounders.

Abstract: The invention relates to a powered reciprocating saw,
in particular to a pruning saw. To simplify use of the saw
a clamping mechanism is provided which holds an object in
position while it is sawn. The clamping mechanism is
mounted at the front portion 4 of the housing of the saw
near the saw blade 20. The clamping mechanism comprises: a
slide element 30 for sliding movement in cutting direction C
of the saw blade, a supporting member 30; and a clamping arm
40 being rotatably mounted on the slide element 30, by means
of a one way rotary clutch 42 such that the arm can freely
rotate in one direction only, in which direction the
clamping arm 40 moves towards the support member 30 to clamp
an object therebetween in a clamping position below the saw
blade for sawing it. When the saw is in use, it vibrates
due to its reciprocating parts. Since the clamping arm 40
has a moment of inertia with respect to this axis of
rotation of the one way rotary clutch 42, the oscillating
movement is transformed into a stepwise, progressive
rotational movement of the clamping arm which thereby closes
automatically to clamp an object to be sawn.

Abstract: An extended nip press having a concave shoe which is supported on
a hydraulic actuator which urges the shoe against a backing roll. A pair of
opposed profile control hydraulic actuators apply a pure couple about the
load support line formed by a bearing pin which transmits the support load
from the hydraulic actuator to the shoe. A leading hydraulic actuator is
positioned in front of the load support line and pulls up on the shoe. A
trailing hydraulic actuator is positioned behind the load support line and
pulls down on the shoe. The leading hydraulic actuator and trailing
hydraulic actuator are equally spaced from the load support line and have
equal hydraulic actuator area and are connected to the same hydraulic
reservoir. Thus the hydraulic actuators exactly balance each other out
except for the couple or torque which they apply about the load support
line.
