Patent EP-0887867-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ERIGUCHI KOJI
IPC: B81B3/00
Filed: 1994-11-02
Abstract: On a silicon substrate is formed a silicon dioxide film and
then hemispherical grains made of silicon, each having an
extremely small diameter, are deposited thereon by LPCVD.
After annealing the hemispherical grains, the silicon dioxide
film is etched using the hemispherical grains as a first dotted
mask, thereby forming a second dotted mask composed of the
silicon dioxide film. The resulting second dotted mask is used
to etch the silicon substrate to a specified depth from the
surface thereof, thereby forming an aggregate of semiconductor
micro-needles. Since the diameter of each of the semiconductor
micro-needles is sufficiently small to cause the quantum size
effects as well as has only small size variations, remarkable
quantum size effects can be obtained. Therefore, it becomes
possible to constitute a semiconductor apparatus with a high
information-processing function by using the aggregate of
semiconductor micro-needles (quantized region).

Abstract: A process for removing creases from a film eliminates a problem in the quality of the heat seal for a patch bag (20) having at least a segment of one or more bag side edges (or the bag bottom edge)covered by one or more patches (24,26). The film creases are removed by inflating the film tubing which is later converted to a bag, heating regions containing the creases with a heating means to a temperature which, in combination with the pressure within the inflated tubing, causes the creases to relax. The heated crease-containing regions are then cooled and the inflated tubing is deflated and wound up in a new configuration in which at least one patch covers at least one side edge or the bottom edge. <IMAGE>

this time backward from the present brightness value; if
the difference between the two calculated values is
greater than a threshold value, a new brightness value is
calculated from the load ratio, and the brightness is set
to the newly calculated value. Thereafter, the
brightness is controlled based on measured power
consumption values.

Abstract: An electrical connection box containing at least one generally
planar base insulative plate having two flat surfaces. There is at
least one busbar on or adjacent the first surface which is capable
of electrical contact with a plurality of insulated wires. The
busbar has one or more pressure connection sections which include
a pair of blades which cut through the insulation on the wires and
make electrical contact therewith. The insulated wires are
straight, parallel to each other, and are located in the wire
concentration section which is on or adjacent the second surface of
the base insulative plate. The wire concentration section and the
pressure connection section are in register with each other and
openings are provided in the base insulative plate through which
the blades can project. Thus, when pressure is exerted on the
blades or on the insulated wires, the blades cut through the
insulation on the wires, forming an electrical contact between the
busbar and the wires in a single operation. It is unnecessary to
insert the wires one at a time. This provides increased ease of
assembly, reduces costs, and provides secure and reliable
connections.

Abstract: A vibrating member (31) connected to a frequency transmitter (41) produces relative movement between the injection cylinder (21) and the material conveying unit (22). The frequency can be varied within a range which sets up a resonance vibration in the cylinder and conveying unit. An Independent claim is made for a method for influencing the melt flow between the cylinder and conveying unit in which forces applied to the melt effect a transverse movement with a frequency in the ultrasonic range. Preferred Features: The vibrating member (31), which is a piezoelement, is located either between the material conveying unit (22) and power unit (51) or is connected to the injection cylinder (21) which with the injection nozzle is decoupled from the molding tool to prevent vibration transfer. The vibrating member can be located either in a housing (71) or clamped between two flanges. Vibration decoupling can be effected by a sliding ring or a damper. The material conveying unit (22) can be a screw (23) with a sliding contact (43) between the vibrator and frequency transmitter (41) or a screw with a frequency transmitter connected to a coil surrounding the drive rod (52) and magnetically coupled to another coil connected to the vibrator. The material conveying unit may also be a solid or tubular piston. A melt temperature sensor (81) is connected to the frequency transmitter which functions in an ultrasonic range, e.g. 10-40kHz.

Abstract: A method for designing a wireless telecommunications system having a plurality
of cells is provided. In one embodiment of such a method, a call demand per cell is
estimated, and a channel demand based thereon is determined on a cell-by-cell basis.
The cell-by-cell channel demand is used to provide a reasonably tight upper bound on
the number of communication channels required to satisfy the system-wide call
demand. It is implicit in the procedure for estimating the upper bound that no mutually
"interfering" base stations use the same channel ( i.e. , frequency). "Cliques" of
mutually-interfering base stations or cells are defined. A channel demand is determined
for each clique by adding up the channel demand for each cell in the clique. The
greatest channel demand of all cliques determines a "maximum clique demand" ω   d   .
The upper bound on the number of channels required to satisfy the system-wide call
demand is given by the expression: χ   d    ≤ 17/12 · ω   d    when mutually-interfering cells
are adjacent cells, and is given by the expression: χ   d    ≤ 2 · ω   d    -  d min    when mutually
interfering cells are adjacent cells and next-to-adjacent cells, wherein  d min    is a minimum
channel demand of all cells in the system. Having a reasonably-good estimate of the
upper bound on the system-wide channel requirement, a wireless service provider may
then seek to obtain or allot a commensurate amount of frequency spectrum to support
its system.

Abstract: A duplex printing apparatus is equipped with a
first image forming process unit (250), a second image
forming process unit (260), a fixing section (410,
420), a conveyance system (700), and a control section
(1100). In making a switch-over between printing
modes, the control section (1100) causes the fixing
section (410, 420) to fix on the medium (1) the unfixed
toner image formed during the printing mode in
operation before the switch-over, and then causes the
conveyance system (700) to convey the medium (1) to a
printing start position for operation of the printing
mode after the switch-over. With this, in making a
switch-over between printing modes, even when the
medium (1) is fed back to the start position, it is
less likely that the unfixed toner image formed on the
medium (1) will be disturbed. Therefore, printing
quality can be maintained and printing can be performed
on the medium (1) without waste.
