Abstract:
An eccentric groove 10 is formed in an outer peripheral surface of an outer ring 5 and an outer peripheral surface of an eccentric ring 1a shaped like a segmentary ring is engaged with an inner peripheral surface of a housing 3 by friction. An elastic deformation part having a predetermined length dimension in the circumferential direction is formed in a part of the eccentric ring 1a. The elastic deformation part projects between a bottom face 11 of the eccentric groove 10 and the inner peripheral surface of the housing 3 in the mounting state in the housing 3. Resultantly, the rotation prevention effect of the outer ring 5 with respect to the housing 3 is improved.
Abstract:
An information storage device randomly accesses data items in a sequential access storage medium. A controller, upon loading of the sequential access storage medium, causes the blocks of data items in the sequential access storage medium to be copied to corresponding blocks on the random access storage medium whose correspondence is established by the table. A table establishes the correspondence between blocks of data items in the random access storage medium and blocks of data items in the sequential access storage medium. Upon receiving an instruction from a host computer, the controller further performs a series of read/write operations on the blocks of data items in the random access storage medium. The overwritten blocks of data items on the random access storage medium are updated to the corresponding blocks on the sequential access storage medium.

Abstract:
Disclosed are a method of detecting the presence or absence of a single nucleotide polymorphism of a gene, for prediction of the risk of developing drug-induced lung injury, or for improving a therapeutic method, and a kit for carrying out the detection method. The detection method is characterized by comparing an ABCB1 gene in a biological sample with a wild-type ABCB1 gene to detect the presence or absence of a single nucleotide polymorphism in the ABCB1 gene in the biological sample, in particular, by determining the nucleotide at position 3751 of the CDS of the ABCB1 gene. The kit comprises an oligonucleotide probe which specifically binds to a single nucleotide polymorphism in an ABCB1 gene under selective binding conditions, or an oligonucleotide primer which amplifies a nucleic acid sequence comprising a single nucleotide polymorphism in an ABCB1 gene.
Abstract:
A touch panel is constructed by a display/sensor unit which is slightly larger than a display screen of an LCD and a sensor unit which is projected to the outside from one side, for example, from one side on the right. A finger of the user is touched to a selection item such as desired button, icon, or the like on the display/sensor unit and vertically moved on the sensor unit. A selection display constructed by a plurality of buttons is displayed along the side of the display screen by the LCD. A button beside the finger is highlighted. When the finger is released, the highlighted button is selected. If there are no buttons adjacent to the finger, the button is not highlighted. Even if the finger is released, the state is not changed. When finger is moved to the display/sensor unit, the selection display disappears.

Abstract:
The invention provides a metalworking oil composition which is used for a very small amount of oil-feeding type metalworking method, said composition comprising a base oil selected from the group consisting of natural fats and oils, derivatives thereof and synthetic ester oils; and an antirust agent comprising a sorbitan fatty acid ester and a phospholipid, and a metalworking method using the composition and metalwork obtained by the metalworking method. The oil composition shows excellent lubricity and antirust property and is suitably used for metalworking of metallic materials such as cast iron, steel, stainless steel, and nonferrous metal (such as Al alloy and Mg alloy) by a method in which a very small amount of oil is supplied.
Abstract:
This invention realizes correct adjustment of lip-syncing of video and audio on a decoder side. According to this invention, a plurality of encoded video frames given video time stamps VTS and a plurality of encoded audio frames given audio time stamps ATS are received and decoded from an encoder side, and the resultant plurality of video frames VF1 and plurality of audio frames AF1 are stored, a time difference which occurs due to a difference between the clock frequency of the reference clock of the encoder side and the clock frequency of the system time clock stc of the decoder side is calculated by a renderer 37, 67, and video frame output timing for sequentially outputting the plurality of video frames VF1 frame by frame is adjusted based on audio frame output timing for sequentially outputting the plurality of audio frames AF1 frame by frame, according to the time difference, resulting in realizing the lip-syncing with keeping sound continuousness.
Abstract:
The present invention provides an aqueous lubricant for plastic working which comprises (a) 10 to 40% by mass of a solid lubricating agent; (b) 2 to 20% by mass of an attaching agent having both lubricating and dispersing properties; (c) 2 to 20% by mass of an agent having both wetting characteristics and moisture evaporation-accelerating actions; and water. The use of this lubricant solves problems associated with conventional aqueous lubricants such that it has insufficient lubricating property and likewise permit the completion of a plurality of continuous plastic working steps, starting from a raw material and extending over a final product, without suspending a series of these plastic working steps in the middle thereof.
