Abstract: A multiport memory has a plurality of RAMs and a port expansion unit electrically connected to access ports of the RAMs. The port expansion unit includes an input circuit which allows access control information for activating the RAMs in parallel every memory cycles to be collectively inputted thereto by a plurality of memory cycles, a timing generator which generates internal clock signals capable of serially prescribing each memory cycle plural times during one cycle of a clock signal (ck), and a logic circuit capable of sequentially supplying the access control information inputted to the input circuit to the plurality of RAMs in parallel in parts every serial memory cycles synchronized with the internal clock signals. The port expansion unit allows access to the access ports with the plurality of RAMs as a single multiport memory apparently.

Abstract: An on-vehicle audio system reproducing bodily-sensible sounds is devised to rapidly eliminate masking of bodily-acoustic audio sounds caused by vibrations of a running vehicle and generate bodily-sensible sounds without giving an inharmonious feeling to the listener. The system has a low pass filter for extracting only low frequency band components of an input signal, an amplifier for amplifying the output of the low pass filter and delivering the amplified signal, a vibration unit disposed in a seat of the vehicle for converting the amplified signal to mechanical vibrations. To eliminate the masking, the system is provided with a vibration sensor for generating a vibration signal of a magnitude in accordance with vibrations of the vehicle, and a level adjusting unit for adjusting the level of the input signal in accordance with an average level of the vibration signal.

Abstract: A dispenser (10) and method for washing dishes and utensils in a dishwashing machine are disclosed. The dispenser (10) is comprised of a container (11) and lid (12), the dispenser containing a solid detergent composition (13). A slot (23) in a side wall (17) and baffle (26) allow for controlled drainage of the detergent solution. The lid (12) has a plurality of openings (18) through which water from the dishwashing machine enters, so as to dissolve the solid detergent (13). The dispenser (10) is positioned within the washing chamber (20) of a dishwashing machine (19).

Abstract: A carburetor assembly comprising an air intake tube having a venturi section therein, a hollow cylindrical body in which the air intake tube is inserted, a float chamber, a cover for the float chamber and a clamping device. These members are individually formed and assembled with each other. The assembled members are secured by means of the clamping device.
