Title: Lighter
Inventor: SEGAWA TAKAAKI
IPC: F23D11/10
Filed: 1993-05-17
Abstract: A cigarrette gas lighter is disclosed which enables 
a selection between a substantially clear flame (burning 
gas) which is windshielded or presents an increased 
resistance to the wind effect and a red natural flame 
which can be visually easily recognized, wherein the 
selection is facilitated. A cylinder member (3, 30) has 
an air inlet port (30a) at its lower end while a mixing 
tube (8) is formed with an air suction port (8b) in its 
lateral surface. A flame switching tube (7) surrounds 
the outer periphery of the mixing tube (8), and when 
it is located at its first position, the flame switching 
tube (7) closes the air suction port (8b) while an 
open/close member (7g) leaves the air inlet opening (30a) 
open. When the flame switching tube (7) is driven to 
its second position, the flame switching tube (7) opens 
the air suction port (8b) while the open/close member (7g) 
closes the air inlet opening (30a).

Abstract: A column band pattern memory (10) stores six different column band patterns "SML, SLM, MSL, MLS, LSM, and LMS" obtained by re-arranging three different area modulation ranks (L, M, and S). A column band pattern generator (12) irregularly selects one of the column band patterns stored in the column band pattern memory (10) on the basis of a numerical value generated by a random number generator (11). The selected column band pattern is input to a dot area determination unit (13), and dot areas in units of columns are determined on the basis of the order of dot area modulation ranks (e.g., the order of S, M, and L) in the selected column band pattern. A pulse controller (14) performs pulse control to form dots in accordance with the dot areas determined by the dot area determination unit (13). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A hand-held scanning device (10) is disclosed in
which the scanning device housing window (152) is located
such that it does not come into contact with the object
being scanned (54) while a scan is being performed. This
location of the window (152) eliminates window damage
caused by contact with the object (54) being scanned.
This location also results in the window (152) being
located out of the focus area of the scanning device
optical system (40). Accordingly, any defects occurring
in the window (152) will be out of focus and, thus, less
detrimental to acquired image quality. A light source
lens (66) may be integrally formed in the same assembly
(150) as the window (152) and this assembly (150) may
provide support for the light source (62).

Abstract: The invention is a method and apparatus for embedding an implant of a special design in
bone tissue in a way that encourages bone tissue growth in and around the implant thereby achieving
greater attachment security over longer periods of time. The user employs a bone-fragment
collecting drill to form the bone-tissue hole and deliver the resulting bone fragments to a collecting
region. The user crumbles the bone fragments by placing them in the lower of two mating spoon-shaped
jaws of a pliers-like device and repeatedly opening and closing the jaws until the bone
fragments are crumbled. The surface of the implant is equipped with one or more embedded helical
channels and through-holes to permit bone growth into the implant. The installation of the implant
consists of partially filling the bone-tissue hole with bone crumbs, packing the helical channels and
through-holes with bone crumbs, and installing the implant in the bone-tissue hole. The interspace
between the implant and the bone tissue becomes filled with the patient's own bone tissue during the
installation process thereby greatly encouraging the growth of bone tissue in and around the implant.

Abstract: The composite oxide and the composite oxide carrier are
manufactured by the precursor forming step and firing step. The
precursor forming step includes high speed mixing means. The
composite oxide catalyst is obtained by preparing a composite of
catalytic components simultaneously with the formation of the
precursor of composite oxide in the step of forming the precursor of
composite oxide. The composite oxide and the composite oxide carrier
are composed of a composite oxide in which at least one of cerium and
zirconium, and aluminium disperse with extremely high homogeneity.
With this structure, the heat resistance of the carrier is improved
and consequently, enlargement of particles of the composite oxide
defining the carrier, and sintering of adjacent particles of the
composite oxide can be restrained, whereby the catalyst using the
composite oxide carrier in accordance with the present invention is
excellent in heat resistance. With the present invention, the
carrier is not limited to a general catalyst carrier. The carrier may
be interpreted to indicate general formed bodies. For example, the
carrier with the present invention can be also used as materials for
sensors and electrodes, optical materials, semiconductors and
structure materials. Furthermore, the carrier can be used for a
three-way catalyst, NOx catalyst or oxidation catalyst or a part
thereof, and a promoter.
