Abstract: The anti-fuse circuit includes three sub-blocks: a multiplexer having inputs of control signals and addresses and yielding the activation of a programming signal and program addresses; a programming voltage generator consisting of an oscillator and a charge pump; and an anti-fuse unit circuits for the program/read of anti-fuse states. For an anti-fuse program at the special test mode, a program address generation circuit having inputs of control signals and addresses activates the programming voltage generator and makes a special or program address for selection of anti-fuse. In the normal mode, the program address generation circuit and an internal power generator remain at an inactive state. In anti-fuse unit circuit, the program address and the programming voltage signal from the programming voltage generator serve to switch the terminal of the anti-fuse up to a programming voltage level when the anti-fuse is selected for programming of anti-fuse elements.

Opened end portions of the weight body defining the engaging groove are caulked over the one end portion to form pawl portions. Thus, the one end of the engaging member is fixed to the engaging groove of the weight body.

Abstract: A method of flooring using butting panels fixed to a frame primarily of joists, joints transverse of the longitudinal axes of the joists being largely unnogged. To support such joints unsupported by a framing element reliance is placed on panel edge to panel edge adhesion. In a preferred form particle board panels each provided with an edge groove have the effect of ensuring both a sufficient availability of adhesive for an effective butt joint whilst, in addition, providing a keying or splining between the adjacent panels.

Abstract: An improved injection molding nozzle shows a high hardness and is chemically stable so that the inner surface thereof is not corroded nor the gas or the fluid forced to penetrate into the gap between the injection molding nozzle and the valve pin seize the valve pin regardless of the temperature and the pressure of the material to be injected. Additionally, the valve pin is not pliable and does not give rise to a collapse on the part of the valve pin. The injection molding nozzle to be used for resin and molten metal is characterized in that it is made of a ceramic material and at least part of the outer periphery is covered with metal.

Abstract: A prefabricated one-piece metal frame and funnel drain is constructed for curb and gutter use. The frame may be constructed in a number of styles, with a particular style selected to match the desired curb form. The funnel drain also includes a variety of styles in order to accommodate different drain pipe orientations and configurations. When welded together, the frame and funnel drain may be mounted within any standard curb and gutter form such that curb and gutter installation and drain pipe installation may be accomplished simultaneously, without any preparatory concrete work required for placement of the frame and funnel drain.

Abstract: An assay for the presence of an analyte or determining a biological or medical parameter comprising the steps of adding an assay component to a pH-sensitive material charged with magnetic particles, wherein the assay component causes a pH change which is a function of the analyte or parameter to be measured; subjecting the magnetic particles to an oscillating magnetic field; and measuring the effect of the magnetic field on the magnetic particles. The assay is an enzyme immunoassay. A kit for practicing the enzyme immunoassay is also described.

Abstract: A vehicle sun visor, provided with a radio absorptive conductor acting as a radio antenna, is disclosed. The vehicle sun visor, having a panel shape, is installed on the front portion of the interior ceiling within the passenger compartment of a car. The radio absorptive conductor, acting as a radio antenna, is installed on one surface of the sun visor while forming an arrangement suitable for effectively receiving radio waves. The above conductor is also electrically connected to the antenna terminal of an onboard radio system of the car. An input radio wave amplifying unit is mounted on the electric path between the conductor and the antenna terminal of the radio system. The above unit is used for filtering, amplifying and buffering the radio waves received by the conductor. In the present invention, the conductor may be formed by cutting a conductive thin plate into a desirably arranged line through a pressing process.

Abstract: A versatile motor boat having front and rear casting platforms and side platforms, a center console and oppositely facing, front and rear seat assemblies. Both seat assemblies can be opened to provide maximum seating when the boat is to be used for cruising. The front seat assembly may be collapsed to provide an extended front casting platform when it is desired to use the boat as a bay or striper boat. Both seat assemblies can be folded down to extend the front and rear casting platforms for use of the boat as a bass boat. When the seat assemblies are collapsed, supports are provided for a rigid back member forming part of each seat back and latches secure the seat backs in their collapsed position so that the rear surfaces of the rigid members provide stable extended casting platforms.
