Patent EP-1043086-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SUZUKI TETSUO
IPC: B21D43/00
Filed: 2000-03-31
Abstract: A strip guiding device (1) for guiding a
strip (W) longitudinally along a feed path has a
limiting mechanism (4) for limiting the strip
transversely at opposite side edges thereof to cause
the strip to pass through a predetermined position in
the feed path. The limiting mechanism (4) has a pair
of abutment members (5,6) having respective abutment
surfaces (10) for abutting against the side edges of
the strip (W) along the feed path. The abutment
members (5,6) are movable in first directions toward
and away from the side edges of the strip, and normally
urged by a spring assembly (12) to move away from the
strip. The limiting mechanism also has a pair of
pressing members (7,8) having respective slanted
surfaces (16) held in sliding contact with respective
sliding surfaces (11) of the abutment members (5,6)
remote from the abutment surfaces. The pressing
members (7,8) are movable in second directions
transverse to the first directions. The pressing
members (7,8) press the abutment members (5,6) toward
the strip (W) against the urging means (12) by sliding
contact of the slanted surfaces (16) with the sliding
surfaces (11) in response to movement of the pressing 
members (7,8) in one of the second directions. The
limiting mechanism further includes a displacing
mechanism (22) for displacing the pressing members in
the second directions to move the abutment members in
the first directions.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for making an enzyme-modified
cheese flavoring in which treatment of a composition containing dairy proteins that
include whey proteins with a proteolytic enzyme occurs prior to any heating step, and
in which the treatment is of short duration. The process includes incubating a dairy
mixture containing the dairy proteins at a temperature and for a period of time that are
sufficient to partially hydrolyze the proteins. The invention additionally provides an
enzyme-modified cheese including partially proteolyzed dairy proteins wherein the
partially proteolyzed dairy proteins contain partially proteolyzed whey proteins. The
enzyme-modified cheese originates from any of a broad range of dairy liquids that
contain dairy proteins. In important embodiments, the enzyme-modified cheese is
made by the process of the invention.

Abstract: A method for rapidly dechucking a wafer (114) from a chuck (106) by applying a
voltage between the wafer and the electrode that uses a sequence of resonant discharge
events such that residual charge is removed. The voltage is a sequence of decaying
oscillating waveforms passively produced from a resonant circuit that provides a
decaying electric field at the wafer to chuck surface interface. The form of this field at
this interface is very important to achieving rapid dechucking of less than 200 Ms.

Abstract: A method of making a resist pattern is provided, which
decreases or eliminates the fluctuation of deformation of original
openings of a resist layer which is induced by the change of their
density (i.e., the count of the original openings within a unit
area) or by their location in the reflowing process. The method
comprises the steps of (a) forming a resist layer on a target layer;
(b) patterning the resist layer to form original openings and at
least one slit in the resist layer; the slit surrounding the original
openings and having a specific width; and (c) reflowing the resist
layer patterned in the step (b) under heat to cause deformation
in the original openings and the at least one slit, thereby
contracting the original openings and eliminating the at least one
slit; the original openings thus contracted serving as resultant
openings for forming desired contact/via holes in the target layer;
the resist layer having the resultant openings constituting a resist
pattern. Preferably, first to  n -th sets of the original openings
are located at first to  n -th densities in first to  n -th regions
of the resist layer, respectively, where  n  is an integer greater
than unity. At least two of the first to  n -th densities are
different from each other. The at least one slit is formed to
surround each of the first to n-th regions of the resist layer.

Abstract: A cryptographic communication system. The system, which employs a
novel combination of public and private key cryptography, allows two parties, who
share only a relatively insecure password, to bootstrap a computationally secure
cryptographic system over an insecure network. The system is secure against active
and passive attacks, and has the property that the password is protected against offline
"dictionary" attacks. If  Alice  and  Bob  are two parties who share the password  P 
one embodiment of the system involves the following steps: (1)  Alice  generates a
random public key  E,  encrypts it with  P  and sends  P(E)  to  Bob;  (2)  Bob  decrypts to
get  E,  encrypts a random secret key  R  with    E    and sends  E(R)  to  Alice; (3) Alice 
decrypts to get  R , generates a random challenge  C A    and sends  R ( C A   ) to  Bob;  (4)
 Bob  decrypts to get  C A   , generates a random challenge  C B    and sends  R( C A ,C B  )  to
 Alice ; (5) Alice decrypts to get  (C A ,C B ),  compares the first against the challenge
and sends  R(C B )  to  Bob  if they are equal;  (6) Bob  decrypts and compares with the
earlier challenge; and (7)  Alice  and  Bob  can use  R  as a shared secret key to protect
the session.

Abstract: Device for cooling a symmetrical component of a turbine system exposed to non-uniform high temperatures around its periphery comprises a ring (5) connected to the component which protrudes into the stream of cooling air and is provided with slits (7) or other openings for the passage of the cooling air. The cross-section of the slits in the sections of the ring which are adjacent to the heavily stressed regions of the component is larger than the cross-section of the slits in the sections of the ring which are adjacent to the less stressed regions of the component. Preferred Features: The slits are distributed non-uniformly around the periphery of the ring and the distance between the slits is smaller in the sections of the ring which are adjacent to the heavily stressed regions of the component. The slits have different widths and the widths are larger in the sections of the ring which are adjacent to the heavily stressed regions of the component.

Abstract: An FPGA is comprised of a number of cells which perform logical functions on input signals. Programmable intraconnections provide connectability between each output of a cell belonging to a logical cluster to at least one input of each of the other cells belonging to that logical cluster. A set of programmable block connectors are used to provide connectability between logical clusters of cells and accessibility to the hierarchical routing network. A uniformly distributed first layer of routing network lines is sued to provide connections amongst sets of block connectors. A uniformly distributed second layer of routing network lines is implemented to provide connectability between different first layers of routing network lines. Switching networks are used to provide connectability between the block connectors and routing network lines corresponding to the first layer. Other switching networks provide connectability between the routing network lines corresponding to the first layer to routing network lines corresponding to the second layer. Additional uniformly distributed layers of routing network lines are implemented to provide connectability between different prior layers of routing network lines.

Abstract: The invention relates to a control system for a direct
fuel injection engine employing a valve varying mechanism,
which can suppress mixing of burned gas and fresh air to
maintain the combustion stability, can accelerate vaporization
of sprayed fuel at the beginning of fuel injection to
reduce the emission rate of HC, and can realize a reduction
of NOx based on the effect of exhaust return. The control
system for the direct fuel injection engine comprises a fuel
injector (17) for directly injecting fuel into a combustion
chamber (12), and valve varying drivers for variably controlling
the opening/closing timing of each of an intake
valve (15a) and/or an exhaust valve (16). A control unit (7)
controls the valve varying mechanism unit to introduce burned
gas from an exhaust port (14) into the combustion chamber
(12) and to inject the fuel during a compression stroke for
effectuating stratified charge combustion. The control unit
(7) controls the valve varying drivers to provide a phase
difference in the opening timing of two left and right valves
constituting the intake valve (15a) and/or the exhaust valve
(16), thereby generating a flow of the burned gas along a
cylinder wall.
