The packing device having a supply frame on which a spring is provided. A cover member supply part, which is formed of a supply roll on which a cover member having a certain width, is wound and rotates, and a direction change roll for allowing a cover member to be supplied on an upper side of the spring, with the spring being placed on an upper side of the supply frame. A forming guide is provided and one end is extended at a tapered angle in a conical shape, while surrounding an upper surface of the cover member, as being closer to an end of the supply frame, and the other end surrounds the spring excluding the portion in which both sides of the cover member are overlapped. A pair of pressing rollers is provided for pressing and bonding the cover members and one driving roller for transferring the packed spring.

A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor element; a body bias controller configured to generate a standby mode body bias control signal in a standby mode; and a body bias voltage generator configured to receive the standby mode body bias control signal from the body bias controller, generate a standby mode body bias voltage, and apply the standby mode body bias voltage to a body of the semiconductor element. The semiconductor device is capable of retaining data stored in a semiconductor element and blocking leakage current in the standby mode by controlling a body bias voltage, thereby increasing the integration degree of the semiconductor device.

There is provided a method of processing an ultrasound spectrum image. According to such method, a spectrum image is formed based on ultrasound data and then the noise is removed from the spectrum image. The noise-removed spectrum image is matched with one or more spectrum models representing specific spectrum types. Then, whether or not the noise-removed spectrum image contains an aliasing is checked. If the noise-removed spectrum image contains the aliasing, then the aliasing is removed from the noise-removed spectrum image to provide a noise-removed spectrum image without the aliasing. Thereafter, contour tracing is performed on the noise-removed spectrum image without the aliasing to detect contour points. Further, peak tracing is performed on the noise-removed spectrum image without the aliasing to detect peaks.

A method and a system of automatically detecting a boundary of a target object by using an ultrasound diagnostic image. In accordance with the present invention, the boundary of the target object can be detected automatically and precisely. The ultrasound diagnostic method and system form an edge detection boundary candidate model by detecting an edge of the ultrasound diagnostic image, forming a simplification boundary candidate model by performing a simplification operation to the edge detection boundary candidate model, forming a sessionization boundary candidate model by performing a sessionization operation to the simplification boundary candidate model, and detecting the boundary of the target object of the ultrasound diagnostic image based on the edge detection boundary candidate model, the simplification boundary candidate model and the sessionization boundary candidate model. In accordance with the present invention, the boundary of the target object is automatically detected by using the ultrasound diagnostic image to reduce any inconvenience to the user and solve the problem in which the measured result may vary with each user, which was caused by a conventional method of manually detecting the boundary.

A color imaging display method and apparatus in a color doppler imaging system can display a high quality of a color image in which a flash artifact which is a kind of a clutter signal is removed. The method and apparatus determines whether the flash artifact exists, according to the result obtained by frequency-estimating a doppler signal where an ultrasonic signal is filtered and a clutter signal where the ultrasonic signal is not filtered, and mixing the information obtained through the frequency estimation, and determines whether or not a corresponding pixel is displayed in an ultrasonic color doppler image. Thus, the pixel which has been determined as the flash artifact is not displayed, to thereby obtain a high quality of a color image.
