An electronic thermometer includes a display device for displaying a temperature of an associated object under temperature measurement in a predetermined display digit number. A temperature measurement device generates a temperature measurement signal based on the temperature of the associated object. A computation device is provided for computing a temperature value of a digit number larger than the predetermined display digit number to be displayed on the display device on the basis of the temperature measurement signal. A control device controls the display device to display a first temperature value portion and a second temperature value portion. The first portion is displayed with a first set of predetermined digits and the second portion is displayed with a second set of predetermined digits, including any digit or digits other than the first predetermined digits.

When a tunnel magnetoresistive effect element having a multilayer film structure containing two ferromagnetic material layers (11, 12) and a barrier layer (13) is constructed, after one ferromagnetic material layer (11) had been deposited, a conductive layer (16), formed by adding a material of an element different from a metal material to said metal material serving as a principal component thereof, is deposited on the ferromagnetic material layer (11) and the barrier layer (13) is formed by oxidizing the conductive layer (16), whereafter the other ferromagnetic material layer (12) is deposited on the barrier layer (13). Thus, in the tunnel magnetoresistive effect type memory device, dispersion of resistance value between respective elements can be suppressed while a large TMR ratio can be obtained.

A braking mechanism which applies tension to an ink ribbon is provided. The braking mechanism comprises: a first friction member which is fitted to a supply shaft to rotate and support the ink ribbon and is rotated as one body together with the supply shaft; a second friction member which is fitted to the supply shaft in such a way that relative rotation can be realized and for which absolute rotation at least in one direction is restricted and relative axial movement to the supply shaft can be realized; an operation member which is screwed into a screwed section formed on the supply shaft; and an energizing member which is arranged between the operation member and the second friction member and which presses the second friction member for energizing the second friction member.

An EC panel drive unit for a rear-view mirror comprising a timer circuit 2 in which a drive signal is output for a fixed period of time when either a colored state switch SW1 or a colorless state switch SW2 is in the ON position; a D-type flip-flop circuit 9 that sends different output signals, depending on whether the colored state switch SW1 is in the ON position or the colorless state switch SW2 is in the ON position, and a colored/colorless state switching circuit 6 which switches the polarity of DC voltage that is output from a lithium battery based on the output from the D-type flip-flop circuit 9 and then applies the voltage to input terminals Ta and Tb of the EC panel 7. A contact SW2-3 is installed between the two input terminals, Ta and Tb, of the EC panel 7 for providing a short circuit between the two terminals when the colorless state switch SW2 is turned to the ON position. Switching between a colored state and a colorless state by a one-touch operation, and returning the EC panel 7 to the colorless state from the colored state by pressing and holding the colorless state switch SW3 in cases where trouble occurs such as a drop in output voltage from the lithium battery 1 so as to set the contact SW3-3 to a short-circuit state can be achieved.

A material-feeding device (14) includes a base (52), a material passage (54) formed on the base, at least one guide member (56, 58) provided in the material passage and having a material-guide surface (56a, 58a), a direction-correcting roller assembly (60) provided in the material passage, and a conveyor roll mechanism (62) disposed downstream of the direction-correcting roller assembly in relation to a material-feeding direction, for conveying a material along the material passage. The direction-correcting roller assembly (60) includes a pair of integrally rotatable polygonal rollers (76) having a common rotation axis oblique to the material-guide surface and a freely rotatable ball (78) opposed to the pair of polygonal rollers and elastically supported in an operative position closer to the polygonal rollers to define a gap between the ball and each of the polygonal rollers for allowing the material to be inserted into the gap when the ball is in the operative position. The direction-correcting roller assembly (60) holds the material between the pair of polygonal rollers (76) and the ball (78), and intermittently feeds the material toward the guide members (56, 58).

An endoscopic procedural device of the present invention comprises an insert section that has an inside hole extending along its axial direction, and which has flexibility to enable its insertion through a forceps-channel of an endoscope, at least one operating wire that is inserted in the inside hole of the insert section, and which is freely moved forward or backward along the axial direction of the insert section, an operating section which is used for moving an operating wire forward or backward, at least one procedural member that is mounted to a distal end of the procedural section holding member in a rotatable manner, and which has one through-hole at its proximal end side to which one of the operating wires is connected, wherein the one through-hole has a first opening end on one side of a procedural member at a position farther from the center axis of the insert section, and a second opening end on the other side of the procedural member at a position closer to the center axis of the insert section, and a distal end portion of an operating wire is not only inserted into the one through-hole toward the center axis side of the insert section from the first opening end, but protruded outside the one through-hole from the second opening end and the protruded distal end portion of the operating wire is positioned in the vicinity of the second opening end.
摘要:
A radiation thermometer which starts body temperature measuring operations when a temperature measurement switch is pressed, inserts a probe into an opening of a living being, receives an infrared ray from within the opening and computes a temperature, and displays a maximum value of measured temperature data as a body temperature, for the purpose of avoiding temperature measurement and displaying of a temperature executed by manipulation of the temperature measurement start switch after insertion of the probe into an opening of a living being, a careless manipulation of the switch after insertion into an external acoustic opening despite a previous normal manipulation of the switch before insertion, etc., comprises an operation judging means which determines whether the temperature measurement start switch is appropriately manipulated, such that the radiation thermometer issues a warning which is indicative of an erroneous operation or an erroneous operation does not influence normal temperature measuring operations.
