Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a first insulating layer and a second insulating layer in a trench. The first insulating layer insulates two MOSFETs from each other, and the second insulating layer has a true stress opposite to a true stress of the first insulating layer. The second insulating layer includes two regions of different true stresses. This enables a drain current flow in each MOSFET to be independently controlled in a semiconductor device that employs a STI method for element isolation.

Abstract: A sunshade device is configured to block light coming through a front window of a vehicle. The front window of the vehicle extends to an area above at least one of a driver seat and a front passenger seat of the vehicle. The front window configures a portion of a front side of a ceiling of the vehicle. A light-blocking member is disposed below the front window. The light-blocking member includes a front side member and a rear side member. The front side member is movable in a front-and-rear direction separately from the rear side member.

Abstract: A winder is provided near a quarter window of a rear door. A shade member is drawably mounted about the winder. A connecting piece is connected to a drawing arm and mounted to the rear portion of the shade member. A shoe is mounted to a bottom end of the drawing arm. The shoe engages with a regulatory groove extending in a drawing direction of the shade member. A driving cable is connected to the shoe. The shade member can be drawn out across the window by the drawing arm via the sending out of the driving cable by an operating mechanism. Since the regulatory groove extends substantially in a circle, when the shoe moves through engagement with the regulatory groove, the connecting piece connected to the drawing arm pivots relative to the shoe.

Abstract: A predicted value of acid consumption during pickling with a pickling solution in each of a third tank 11c and a final tank 11d of a continuous pickling apparatus 10 is calculated by a pickling line control unit 24, and based on the calculated predicted value, the amount of acid solution to be supplied to each of the third tank 11c and the final tank 11d is determined, and acid solution is supplied from an acid solution supply system 12. The acid concentration of the pickling solution in each of the third tank 11c and the final tank 11d to which acid solution is supplied is continuously measured by continuous acid concentration measuring devices 13c and 13d, and based on the continuously measured value of the measured acid concentration, acid solution is supplied from the pickling solution supply system 12 to the third tank 11c and the final tank 11d so that the concentration of the pickling solution in each of the third tank 11c and the final tank 11d matches a target value.

Abstract: An exhaust manifold (7) of an engine (1) is connected to a three way (TW) catalyst (8a), and the TW catalyst (8a) is connected to an NH3 adsorbing and oxidizing (NH3-AO) catalyst (10a). The engine (1) performs the lean and the rich engine operations alternately and repeatedly. When the engine (1) performs the rich operation and thereby the exhaust gas air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas flowing into the TW catalyst (8a) is made rich, NOx in the inflowing exhaust gas is converted to NH3 in the TW catalyst (8a). The NH3 is then adsorbed in the NH3-AO catalyst (10a). Next, when the engine (1) performs the lean operation and thereby the exhaust gas air-fuel ratio of the exhaust gas flowing into the TW catalyst (8a) is made lean, NOx in the exhausted gas passes through the TW catalyst (8a), and flows into the NH3-AO catalyst (10a). At this time, NH3 adsorbed in the catalyst (10a) is desorbed therefrom, and reduces the inflowing NOx.

Abstract: An engine (1) has first and second cylinder groups (1a) and (1b). The first cylinder group (1a) is connected to a three way (TW) catalyst (8a). The second group (1b) and the TW catalyst (8a) are connected, via an interconnecting duct (13) to an NH.sub.3 adsorbing and oxidizing (NH.sub.3 -AO) catalyst (14a). The first group (1a) performs the rich operation, and the second group (1b) performs the lean operation. In the TW catalyst (8a), NO.sub.x exhausted from the first group (1a) is converted to NH.sub.3, and the NH.sub.3 reduces the NO.sub.x exhausted from the second group (1b) in the NH.sub.3 -AO catalyst (14a). A NO.sub.x occluding and reducing (NO.sub.x -OR) catalyst (11a) is arranged in the exhaust passage between the second group (1b) and the interconnecting duct (13), to thereby suppress the NO.sub.x amount flowing into the NH.sub.3 -AO catalyst (14a).

Abstract: In a translation apparatus, a desire phrase is input via a tablet by selecting an appropriate item from a menu or inputting of a desire sentence in a first language. A desire analyzer analyzes the desire phrase and, if a conversational situation cannot be specified, presents a query for narrowing the desire content. When the conversational situation is specified, the desire analyzer presents a query for further narrowing the desire content, thereby determining the phrase to be translated. An optimum conversational sentence selector selects a conversational sentence in a second language which expresses the determined desire content from a conversational sentence storage, and a display section displays the selected conversational sentence.
