Abstract: The invention relates to an emergency switch for an exercise apparatus
having a housing, a safety plug and a microswitch. The safety plug passes
through an insertion slot of the housing and is inwardly inserted to the inside of
the housing for an electric connection by means of the contact of the distal end of
an extension part of the safety plug to a contact key of the microswitch.
Meanwhile, an electric disconnection is created when the safety plug is extracted.
In addition, a cut-off button with a push rod is interposed between the safety plug
and the microswitch. Besides, the cut-off button projects outwardly from the
housing. When the cut-off button is pressed down, the push rod makes use of its
slanting guide face to separate the safety plug from the contact key of the
microswitch into a disconnection state.

IPC: B01D53/94
Filed: 2004-07-13
Abstract: When rich spike control is executed in a diesel engine (1) equipped with a NOx
trapping catalytic converter (12), there are times when the amount of NOx desorbed is too
little or too much. The rich spike control start timing is determined based on the NOx
accumulation amount calculated during lean combustion operation and the rich spike
control end timing is determined based on the NOx accumulation amount and the NOx
desorption rate. Since the actual amount of NOx remaining in the NOx trapping catalytic
converter (12) can be estimated based on the NOx desorption rate during rich spike control,
the rich spike control can be ended when the amount of remaining NOx reaches a
prescribed target value.

Abstract: A therapeutic bed is arranged so that its inclination
is adjusted by a bed inclination adjusting device provided
to a rotation drive device disposed in a Y-direction moving
device. The bed inclination adjusting device supports the
therapeutic bed at three points by its three inclination
adjusters. Each of the inclination adjusters converts the
rotation of a motor into the rectilinear motion of a slider,
and varies the level of a universal joint provided to the
therapeutic bed by a support rod rotatably attached to the
slider. This allows the inclination angle of the
therapeutic bed to be varied. The provision of the bed
inclination adjusting device reduces the number of drive
devices for positioning the therapeutic bed, thereby
decreasing the cumulative value of errors in all drive
devices.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and system for offering a novel
mandatorily convertible securities (e.g., DECS) by using a third party entity (either a
corporate entity or a newly-formed independent trust) to: 1) issue and sell novel
DECS to market investors; 2) obtain from a first entity shares of common stock in a
second entity, or rights to receive such shares in the future, to satisfy the mandatory
conversion requirement of the DECS; 3) sell or retain the rights to any residual value
obtained after satisfying the obligation to DECS investors; and 4) use the proceeds
from such sale or retained value to fund a portion of the DECS coupon. As compared
to a traditional DECS, the use of the third party intermediary allows the first entity to:
1) recognize an accounting gain/loss on its underlying position in the second entity up
front on the day of sale of the novel DECS; 2) avoid the creation of debt on the
balance sheet of the first entity; 3) avoid any mark-to-market through the income
statement each fiscal quarter, which would produce income statement volatility.

Abstract: A floating gate pixel is described which is formed by forming an N well in a
P type silicon substrate. A P well is formed in the N well A gate is formed over a
thin gate oxide, about 25 Angstroms thickness, such that the gate is directly over
part of the P well and part of the N well. A P +  contact in the P well allows
connection to a reset voltage source, usually through a reset transistor, to reset
the pixel. The pixel is reset by setting the potential between the P well and the
substrate, which is usually held at ground potential. When the pixel is reset
tunneling current through the thin gate oxide sets the voltage of the floating gate.
During the charge integration cycle an input signal to the pixel, such as a light
signal, changes the potential of the pixel. After the charge integration cycle the
tunneling current through the gate oxide changes the potential of the floating gate
by an amount related to the input signal to the pixel. The potential of the floating
gate can then be read out to determine the input signal to the pixel. The pixel can
also be embodied using a P well formed in an N type substrate, an N well formed
in the P well, and an N +  contact formed in the N well.
