  • Mechanical safety device for an injection molding machine
    Patent number: 8192192
    Abstract: A mechanical safety device for an injection molding machine is provided with a laterally openable safety door on the flank of a mold opening/closing portion between a movable platen and a stationary platen. A rod is secured to the stationary platen or a base, and a rail, which ascends and descends as the safety door is closed and opened, is assembled to the rod. The rod is formed with a plurality of engaging step portions and tapered surfaces arranged alternately. On the other hand, a ratchet is rotatably supported on the movable platen. The rail ascends or descends to push up or down the ratchet, thereby locating the ratchet in a position where it engages with the engaging step portions of the rod or a position where it is disengaged from the engaging step portions.

  • SEMICONDUCTOR MEMORY DEVICE AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20120120739
    Abstract: An internal voltage generator when activated, generates an internal voltage to be supplied to an internal circuit. Operating the internal voltage generator consumes a predetermined amount of the power. In response to a control signal from the exterior, an entry circuit inactivates the internal voltage generator. When the internal voltage generator is inactivated, the internal voltage is not generated, thereby reducing the power consumption. By the control signal from the exterior, therefore, a chip can easily enter a low power consumption mode. The internal voltage generator is exemplified by a booster for generating the boost voltage of a word line connected with memory cells, a substrate voltage generator for generating a substrate voltage, or a precharging voltage generator for generating the precharging voltage of bit lines to be connected with the memory cells.
