Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP90/01334 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 5, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 5, 1993 PCT Filed Aug. 14, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO91/03102 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 7, 1991.If previously stored transmitters allocated to certain program settings in an entertainment electronics appliance are reallocated to the usual program settings, e.g., because of a changed transmitter distribution arrangement due to a change of location, time consuming reprogramming becomes necessary. The present invention concerns obtaining a simple sequencing process for reallocating previously stored channels to the desired program setting number. A microprocessor receives a command, and within a time window determined by the command, reads previously programmed data concerning two selected program settings from a main memory into a first auxiliary memory, and from this auxiliary memory into a second auxiliary memory, interchanging the channel numbers, and from the second auxiliary memory into the main memory again, so as to keep the same program numbers.

Abstract: The current invention is a method, kit and reagents for detecting cobalamins in a sample. The method involves introducing into the sample a first conjugate of a latex or latex-like solid phase linked to affinity purified intrinsic factor with a first linking group at least three angstroms long. The first conjugate and the bound cobalamins in the sample are then exposed to a second conjugate of a cobalamin linked to a detectable enzyme to produce second conjugate bound to first conjugate and unbound second conjugate. The enzyme activity associated either with the solid phase first conjugate or the unbound second conjugate is then detected. By linking affinity purified intrinsic factor to a latex or latex-like solid phase with a first linking group at least three angstroms long, an enzyme assay can be performed which detects levels of cobalamins in patient samples within or below normal ranges found in such samples.

Abstract: The process for anchoring metallic coverings made of corrugated plate (2) to an underlying supporting structure (1) includes the steps of pre-arranging and rigidly fixing to the supporting structure (1) a plurality of under-corrugation supporting and anchoring elements (3) which each define a pair of sliding support sides (6), the laying of the plate (2) with the respective corrugation (7) arranged astride the supporting and anchoring element (3), and the lateral clamping, with permanent deformation (8), of the corrugation against and around the sides (6) of the supporting and anchoring element (3). The resulting covering structure comprises the plate (2) which is well anchored to the supporting structure (1) while allowing a mutual sliding between the plate (2) and the anchoring and supporting element (3) which is facilitated by the use of a plain bearing (73) interposed therebetween. An apparatus for performing the process includes two mutually articulated jaws (32,33) which, when arranged above and astride a corrugation (7) and actuated, force the corrugation to deform against and around the sides (6) of the anchoring and supporting element (3).

Abstract: An apparatus for forming and driving staples in a single stroke includes a former (4) for forming staples from pre-cut lengths of staple wires, a forming block around which each staple wire is bent by the former, and a driver (3) for driving each formed staple into a workpiece. The former (4) and driver (3) each comprise a substantially flat plate, with the driver slideable within a cut-out portion (33) of the former, and with both plates having their two major surfaces in sliding contact with parallel, spaced apart, guide plates (5, 6). A common driving member (7) is linked to the driver (3) and disengageably linked to the former (4) by means of a retractable link pin (38). The driving member (7) is arranged to initially drive the driver and former together to form a staple around the forming block. Once the staple has been formed, the forming block is withdrawn from within the formed staple. The driving member (7) is disengaged from the former (4) at a predetermined point during the driving stroke after which the driving member drives only the driver (3), so that the driver moves relative to the former to drive the formed staple into the workpiece.

Abstract: A magnetic disk device having a floating-type magnetic head (14), for use with a disk-shaped recording medium (11) having a sliding area (E) for the floating-type magnetic head (14) formed outside a recording area (D). The length in the disk radial direction of a suspension supporting the floating-type magnetic head is varied depending on individual magnetic disk devices. In another arrangement, a control means is provided for setting two reference values so that a radial position of the floating-type magnetic head detected by a detection section is compared with these reference values, and for alternating one of the preset reference values to the other reference value upon receiving a rotation stop signal. In still another arrangement, control means is provided, whereby a radial position for sliding of the floating-type magnetic head is randomly varied within the sliding area. According to these arrangements, since the radial position for sliding of the floating-type magnetic head is varied within the sliding area without being located at the same position, abrasion within the sliding area can be dispersed. As a result, it becomes possible to extend the longevities of the floating-type magnetic head and the recording medium.

Title: Contact for integrated circuits
Inventor: STARK DAVID MICHAEL
IPC: H01L21/768
Filed: 1991-11-11
Abstract: A method for forming a contact in a semiconductor integrated circuit includes the formation of a conformal oxide layer over the device followed by formation of a doped glass layer. The integrated circuit is heated to cause the glass layer to reflow, improving planarity of the circuit. A second conformal oxide layer is then formed, and contact vias are cut through the three part interlevel dielectric layer. Side walls are then formed in the via by depositing a third conformal layer, and anisotropically etching such layer. This isolates the doped reflowable glass layer from the via. Metal interconnect can then be deposited and defined, forming a contact in the via.
