A brake lining of a vehicular brake device is produced by a friction material which has a characteristic that a friction coefficient of the friction material decreases according to an increase of a sliding speed between the brake lining and a rotational member when the sliding speed is greater than or equal to a predetermined speed during the braking operation, and the friction coefficient is substantially constant when the sliding speed is smaller than the predetermined speed.

An information transmission/reception system includes a radio paging data transmitter equipped with a data segmentation block which segments transmission data into transmission data segmentation units to obtain data segments, and an information identification number addition block which adds a plurality of pieces of identification information to each data segment in order to identify the transmission data. A sequence information addition block adds sequence information to each data segment in the sequence in which it is segmented, and a transmission processing block which performs transmission processing so that data segments to which different identification information is added are assigned within a single data transmission cycle. A radio paging data receiver of the information transmission/reception system is equipped with an information identification number discrimination block which performs the discrimination of data segments from the information identification number. The receiver further includes a data restoration block which restores the data segments for each identification information number stored in a memory based on the sequence information.
摘要:
Texture data containing pixel data indicating the color of a plurality of pixels arrayed in matrix fashion are stored in a texture buffer of a DRAM, and the multiple pixel data stored in the texture buffer is simultaneously accessed using a two-dimensional address (U, V) corresponding to the two-dimensional array of the plurality of pixels. The texture buffer stipulates unit blocks containing multiple pixel data to be simultaneously accessed, and stores a plurality of unit blocks making up texture data so as to be continuously positioned within a one-dimensional address space. Accordingly, the storage area of the texture buffer can be used efficiently, and further, simultaneous processing of image data of multiple pixels can be realized.

Texture data which is two-dimensional image data indicating color data of multiple pixels positioned in a matrix form is stored in a texture buffer of a DRAM, a texture engine circuit combines the bit data making up the U address of a two-dimensional address (U, V) represented by n bits (wherein n is an integer of 1 or greater) and the bit data making up the V address of the two-dimensional address (U, V) represented by m bits (wherein m is an integer of 1 or greater), thereby generating an (n+m)-bit one-dimensional address, and the generated one-dimensional address is used to access the storage circuit. Accordingly, the storage area of the texture buffer can be used efficiently with a small circuit configuration.

A semiconductor angular velocity sensor has a frame-shaped base portion, a detection oscillator connected to the base portion through a detection beam portion, and a drive oscillator connected to the detection oscillator through a drive beam portion. Each of the beam portions has a pair of beams each generally having a U shape and connected to each other through a bridge portion. Accordingly, the beam portions can have large rotational rigidity not to prevent oscillations of the oscillators.
摘要:
An internal combustion engine that is comprised of a combustion chamber formed by a cylinder bore closed at one end by a cylinder head and by a piston reciprocating in the cylinder bore. At least one intake passage serves the combustion chamber through an intake port valved by an intake valve. A throttle valve is provided in the intake passage upstream of the intake port and is movable between an opened, full throttle position and a closed, idle position for controlling the flow through the intake passage into the combustion chamber. At least one exhaust passage serves the combustion chamber through an exhaust port. An exhaust valve controls the flow through the exhaust port. Valve actuating means are provided for operating the intake valve and the exhaust valve between their open and closed positions. The portion of the intake passage between the throttle valve and the intake port (intake passage volume) and the maximum volume of the combustion chamber when the piston is at its bottom dead center position (exhaust gas volume) are set to a predetermined ratio. The described constructions permit a very compact construction that permits the intake passage volume to be kept small to achieve the desired ratio.
摘要:
A number of embodiments of induction systems for multiple valve internal combustion engines wherein the performance of the engine is improved throughout the engine speed and load ranges by providing variable effective areas for the induction passages. The embodiments disclosed all relate to three intake valve engines and show a number of different variations in intake passages. In all embodiments an EGR system is employed for improving exhaust emission control.

摘要:
A liquid precursor containing a metal is applied to a substrate, RTP baked, and annealed to form a layered superlattice material. Special polyoxyalkylated precursor solutions are designed to optimize polarizability of the corresponding metal oxide materials by adding dopants including stoichiometric excess amounts of bismuth and tantalum. The RTP baking process is especially beneficial in optimizing the polarizability of the resultant metal oxide.
