In a memory module including a plurality of DRAM chips which transmit/receive a system data signal with a predetermined data width and at a transfer rate and which transmit/receive an internal data signal having a larger data width and a lower transfer rate as compared with the system data signal, it has become clear that there is a restriction on the transfer rate of the system data signal and that speeding-up cannot be expected. A current consumption in a plurality of DRAMs constituting the memory module is large, and this is also a factor for hindering the speeding-up. There is obtained a memory module in which a plurality of DRAM chips are stacked on an IO chip and in which each DRAM chip is connected to the IO chip by a through electrode and which comprises a constitution for mutually converting the system data signal and the internal data signal in each DRAM chip by the IO chip. In this constitution, a wiring between the DRAM chips can be shortened, and DLL having a large current consumption may be disposed only on the IO chip.

The locking hinge assembly has a plurality of locking holes for selective alignment with an angle securing hole in the support arm for locking the swing arm at a selected angle in relation to the support arm by placing an angle locking bar into the aligned holes.

A speed cooking ovens is disclosed comprising a cooking cavity, thermal heating source, air movement and directing means, air flow control means, an air delivery means, and a vent assembly. The speed cooking oven may additionally utilize air flow control mechanisms and be practiced as a single rack speed cooking oven or a multi rack speed cooking oven. Hot gas is circulated to and from the oven cavity via air delivery means, such that turbulently mixed glancing, conflicting and colliding air flows mix at and about the surfaces of the food product. The turbulently mixed air flows are spatially averaged over the surface area of the food product producing high heat transfer and moisture removal rates, thereby optimizing speed cooking of the food product.

An illumination device for a kitchen hood includes a light case made by high heat conductive material and a circuit board is connected to an inside of the light case. A terminal is connected to the circuit board and located outside of the light case. A light unit is connected to the circuit board and located in the light case. The light unit directly contacts the inside of the light case so as to conduct the heat from the light unit to the light case. The light case includes an open bottom with which a cover is engaged and a bulb shade is located between the light unit and the cover so as to focus or guide the light beam from the light unit.

An indoor or outdoor downdraft ventilator moves via an electronic controller through preferably a touch keypad. This provides precise control and an efficient way of removal of gases/fumes off a cook top. The electronically controlled telescoping downdraft creates a nearly infinite and selectable range of heights above a cook top from which to properly collect and draw in, filter, re-circulate, or expel exhaust. The downdraft incorporates a lighting system to illuminate the work surface and sensors to detect temperature, filter change requirements, speed, stop points, power, resistance, voltage, and program med operations.

A kitchen ventilation system includes a sensor for detecting a chemical composition over an active zone of a cooktop. The system also includes an air moving device for displacing air including the chemical composition and an air flow direction control device for directing air displaced by the air moving device between exhaust and recirculation flow paths. A control circuitry is coupled to the sensor, to the air moving device and to the air flow direction control device for regulating operation of the air moving device and a position of the air flow direction control device based upon signals from the sensor.

A portable heater adapted for use in a recreational enclosure or temporary work enclosure includes a housing having an air inlet on the lower front face. A gas supply is partially enclosed by the housing which provides propane to the mouth of a burner venturi located within the housing. Air is drawn through the air inlet and also enters the mouth of the burner venturi. The air and gas are mixed thoroughly as they travel upwardly through the burner venturi. A chimney effect increases fresh air flow velocity into the burner venturi and allows the heater to operate at a reduced fuel gas pressure. Upon exiting the burner venturi, the air/gas mixture is to a plenum and radiant surface where combustion takes place. Any conventional means may be provided to ignite the air/gas mixture in order to cause combustion. The combustion products deflect off a deflector, which is cooled on a rear face by air flow through the housing, which decreases the temperature of the combustion products before exiting an outlet. An oxygen depletion system (ODS) shuts off the portable heater when oxygen levels begin to drop and consequently carbon monoxide levels begin to rise.

A bleed gas clean-up system for a re-circulating oven.

A filter assembly for use in an air filtration unit, particularly for filtering cooking vapors. The assembly includes a filter disposed across an air flow and a grease pre-filter located upstream of the filter.
