Patent EP-0863518-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KOMURA YOSHIHIKO
IPC: H01F27/40
Filed: 1998-03-06
Abstract: In the vehicle-lamp lighting-on device (1), a body case
(2) has a connection opening (3) formed in the front end
thereof. A lighting-on transformer (30) is disposed within the
body case (2). The transformer (30) includes a core housing
(31) with an iron core (35) and a coil bobbin (40) with a
secondary coil (49) wound thereon. The connection opening (3)
of the body case (2) is shielded at the front end of the
lighting-on transformer (30). A socket (10) for receiving a
vehicle discharge lamp includes a high-voltage terminal (12)
and low-voltage terminals (13). When the socket (10) is
inserted into the connection opening (3) of the body case (2),
the high-voltage terminal (12) of the socket (10) is connected
to the high-voltage side terminal (70) of the lighting-on
transformer (30), and the low-voltage terminals (13) are
connected to the low-voltage side terminals (71). Since the
connection opening (3) of the body case (2) is shielded by the
front surface (made of insulating material) of the lighting-on
transformer (30). The vehicle-lamp lighting-on device (1) can
be completed by merely attaching the socket (10) to the
assembly of the lighting-on transformer and the body case.
Therefore, the device assembling is easy. Further, the height
of the vehicle-lamp lighting-on device is reduced as a whole
since there is no need of forming the wall corresponding to the
shielding member (58) in the body case (2).

Abstract: A process for forming a silicon oxide-filled shallow trench on the active surface of a silicon chip starts with forming a trench in the silicon chip that has an upper portion with vertical side walls and a lower portion with tapered side walls. Then oxygen is implanted selectively into the walls of the lower portion of the trench and the chip is heated to react the implanted oxygen with the silicon to form silicon oxide. The rest of the trench is then filled with deposited silicon oxide, typically by depositing a layer of silicon oxide over the surface and then planarizing the deposited silicon oxide essentially to the level of the top of the trench. The silicon-filled shallow trench serves to divide the surface portion of the chip into discrete regions, each for housing one or more circuit components of an integrated circuit.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of driving a liquid crystal display device having a chiral nematic liquid crystal
medium between two substrates. The liquid crystal medium has two metastable states differing from
an initial state. Within one frame of a difference signal appplied to each of a plurality of pixels includes a
selection period a nonselection period following thereafter, and a reset period set before said selection
period. A column electrode signal is set to data potentials that include a potential that is either an ON
potential or an OFF potential for each occurrence of said selection period corresponding to each of said
pixels on the same column electrode. Four types of potential for applying positive and negative ON
selection voltages and positive and negative OFF selection voltages are set as data potentials of said
column electrode signal. A row electrode signal is set to a reset potential during said reset period, a
selection potential during said selection period, and a nonselection potential during a nonselection period,
said reset potential being two types of potential for applying positive and negative reset voltages to said
liquid crystal during said reset period, said selection potential being two types of potential for applying
positive and negative selection voltages during said selection period, and said nonselection potential
being two types of potential for imposing a bias potential on said four types of data potential during said
nonselection period. Either two types of said selection potential or two potentials among said four types of
said data potential are set to be the same as said two types of said reset potential.

Abstract: The sensor (11) has a radar detector (14) for activating a target following tracker (12) when a potential target (13) approaches; e.g. a flying body carried and launched by a naval or land vehicle. The radar detector's transmitter radiates a narrow-band carrier expanded over a large frequency range and modulated with a pseudo noise code. The energy (20) reflected by the potential target is transformed into a narrow frequency range by a receiver (17), synchronised with the transmitter, and cross-correlated using the pseudo noise code to provide a switch-on signal (22) for the tracker.

(16) of the compound fitting is attachable to an end of the tubular
sheath (11) of the control and contains means (23) for anchoring the
ends of ball races (15) of the control. The other tube (25) of the
compound fitting houses a reciprocative end rod (28) connectable to an
end of the push-pull blade (12) that extends fully through the tube (16)
attached to the sheath (11) and through the swivel joint (26). A simple
but effective swivel joint (26) is formed by an outwardly flared end

Abstract: A steam cooling apparatus for gas turbine combustors, wherein a flow of cooling steam is controlled so that the steam is forcibly made
flow properly even when the quantity of the steam is liable to decrease due to a certain reason so as to raise the temperature of a combustor,
by opening a bypass valve to allow a cooling steam outlet side flow passage of the combustor to communicate with a condenser and increase
a difference between the pressure in a cooling steam inlet side flow passage of the combustor and that in the cooling steam outlet side flow
passage, so that the steam temperature in the cooling steam outlet side flow passage can be controlled to be on a planned level without
causing the same to rise excessively even when a gas turbine is started or even when a load varies. The bypass valve is opened by means of a
controller when a temperature detected by a sensor does not lower to a predetermined level with a temperature regulating valve in an opened
state, whereby the control operation is carried out with reference to the steam temperature in the steam outlet side flow passage in addition to
the level detected by a pressure sensor, whereby the reliability of the control operation is improved.
