A fire detector operating by the scattered radiation principle is described, having at least one radiation transmitter and at least one radiation receiver, whose beam paths form a scattering volume. The fire detector includes, in addition to at least one first radiation transmitter and one first radiation receiver, at least one second radiation transmitter and one second radiation receiver, whose beam paths form at least two spatially separated scattering volumes.

The semiconductor memory device includes: an inverter pair of a cross-coupled first and second inverters; a first transfer transistor including a front gate and a back gate connected to a first node to which an output terminal of the first inverter and an input terminal of the second inverter are connected; a second transfer transistor including a front gate and a back gate connected to a second node to which an output terminal of the second inverter and an input terminal of the first inverter are connected; a driver transistor whose gate is connected to the second node; and a read transistor including a front gate, a back gate connected to the second node, and a current path whose one end is connected to one end of a current path of the driver transistor.

A torque sensor is provided which consists of a magnet, an assembly of magnetic rings, and a magnetic sensor. The magnetic rings have claws arrayed thereround at regular intervals. Each of the claws of one of the rings is interposed between adjacent two of the claws of the other ring. Upon input of torque, the magnet is rotated relative to the ring assembly, thereby causing the density of magnetic flux to change as a function of the torque which is sensed by the magnetic sensor. Each of the claws is geometrically shaped so as to increase the density of magnetic flux flowing through the ring assembly, thereby improving the sensitivity of the sensor.

A quick connect closure for connecting first and second structural members, said quick connect closure comprising a female part adapted to be connected to said first structural member and comprising a pair of opposite spring legs, and a closure pin adapted to be mounted to said second structural member so as to be rotatable about an axis of said quick connect closure and comprising a drive portion, a shaft-like intermediate portion and a closure body, said closure pin being adapted to be axially inserted into said female part in order to provide for a locking connection between said closure pin and said female part when said female part and said closure pin are in at least one locking position with respect to each other, and said spring legs of said female part cooperating with said closure body of said closure pin such that the closure pin is automatically rotated into said at least one locking position when the closure pin is in a rotational position spaced from said at least one locking position at the time when the closure pin is inserted into said female part, the improvement being that said female part is made of plastic material and is formed as a circumferentially closed box-type body having a pair of wall portions comprising said spring legs which are radially inwardly offset with respect to the remaining box-type body and are resiliently connected thereto.

A spatial information detecting device is provided, which is capable of reducing the possibility that a saturation phenomenon is caused by the influence of an environmental light. This device includes a photoelectric converting portion for receiving a signal light from a target space to generate electric charges, a charge separating portion for separating electric charges corresponding to a constant amount of a bias component as undesired electric charges from the electric charges generated by the photoelectric converting portion, a charge accumulating portion for accumulating the remaining electric charges as effective electric charges reflecting a fluctuation component of the signal light, a barrier control electrode for forming a potential barrier between the charge separating portion and the charge accumulating portion, and a charge take-out portion for outputting the effective electric charges as an received-light output. By controlling a voltage applied to the barrier control electrode to change a height of the potential barrier, it is possible to adjust an amount of electric charges flowing from the charge separating portion into the charge accumulating portion over the potential barrier.

Disclosed is a multichip package or system-in package which the logic chip includes a selector circuit which, by transmitting a test mode select signal or a test mode select command to the logic chip, enables access from a logic signal pin connected to the logic chip, to a memory control signal to each of the “m” number of memory chips; and the memory control signal, when viewed from the logic chip, is connected using a one-for-one wiring scheme or a one-for-up-to-m branch wiring scheme, between the selector circuit and each of the “m” number of memory chips. This multichip package or system-in package is low in noise and high in operational reliability.
