Abstract: A semiconductor substrate is prepared which has a principal surface, an exposed pad made of conductive material being formed in a partial area of the principal surface, and the other area of the principal surface being covered with a first insulating film. A base conductive film is formed on the first insulating film and the pad. A photoresist film having a thickness of 50 &mgr;m or thicker is formed on the base conductive film. An opening is formed through the photoresist film in an area corresponding to the pad to expose a partial surface area of the base conductive film. A conductive bump electrode is deposited on the base conductive film exposed on a bottom of the opening. The photoresist film is removed. This method is suitable for making a fine pitch between bump electrodes.

Abstract: This invention relates to an etoposide preparation containing an etoposide composition comprising an etoposide, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and water-soluble cellulose ether derivative wherein the proportion of the respective components is about 0.25 to 2 parts by weight for polyvinylpyrrolidone and about 0.0028 to 0.2 parts by weight for the water-soluble cellulose ether derivative per 1 part by weight of the etoposide, and about 10 to 20% (w/w) for the etoposide in the whole amount of the composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to hard capsules of cytarabine ocfosfate which is useful as an anti-leukemia drug applicable to oral administration.By providing the cytarabine ocfosfate hard capsule comprising (1) cytarabine ocfosfate, (2) a high molecular compound functioning as a disintegrator and (3) an alkali, there can be provided pharmaceutical preparations having excellent disintegration property and stability. The cytarabine ocfosfate hard capsules are applicable to clinical use.

Abstract: This invention relates to etoposide solution preparations, which exhibit excellent absorbability in vivo, comprising a container and, enclosed therein, an etoposide solution composition containing etoposide and a water-soluble cellulose derivative or polyvinylpyrrolidone.

Abstract: A casing for an interior unit of a split type air conditioner including a one piece, molded fan casing housing an upper wall, a curved rear wall connected to the upper wall, side walls connected to each of upper wall and the curved wall and a separator including a flat portion generally parallel with the upper wall.

Abstract: A rubber-tired, outriggered vehicle for use as the mounting of a mobile crane is disclosed which has two pairs of telescopic outrigger beams on the opposite sides of the vehicle body, together with a lift cylinder coacting with each outrigger beam for raising and lowering the vehicle body, and an extend cylinder for extending and contracting each outrigger beam. The invention features a hydraulic circuit having two separate valves for independently actuating the two pairs of extend cylinders, in addition to another valve for the actuation of the lift cylinders, so that the vehicle can be crabbed by operating the three valves in a prescribed manner.

Abstract: An air conditioner comprises a device body having first and second air channels, an evaporator disposed in the first air channel for cooling the air passing therethrough, a first drain tray disposed below the evaporator for receiving dew drops formed on the evaporator and falling therefrom and thus for containing the drain, and a second drain tray disposed below the first drain tray for receiving dew drops formed on the first drain tray and falling therefrom and the drain overflowing the first drain tray. The second air channel is defined between the first and second drain trays.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing polyacrylic acid salt granules easily soluble in water characterized in that a water-soluble powder of polyacrylic acid salt is granulated according to fluidized bed granulation method while an aqueous solution of the polyacrylic acid salt of a viscosity of 50-700 c.p.s. is sprayed thereon.

Abstract: An interior unit of a split type air-conditioning apparatus which is usually mounted on a wall of a room to be cooled and is extremely thin. The unit consists of a cabinet structure including a front panel, a middle frame and a rear plate, said front panel having an air inlet opening and an air outlet opening. Also included is a centrifugal fan, preferably a turbo fan with a plurality of backward curved blades, specially designed to adapt to the unit. The means for driving said fan are designed to be partly accommodated in the body of the turbo fan for the purpose of decreasing the depth of the unit.

Abstract: An FM trap circuit in an amplifier mounted on a roof top antenna is made operable from inside the home by providing a switch on the amplifier which is responsive to the negative half cycle in an A.C. power signal to disable the trap circuit and a switch in the home for selectively sending a full cycle A.C. power signal or a half-wave rectified signal to the amplifier.
