摘要:
The invention provides a breast pump capable of effectively preventing the occurrence of leaking of breast milk from a milk expressing section having an enlarged diameter during expression of milk, and also effectively preventing the loss of negative pressure due to leaking. A breast pump has an accommodating vessel for collecting breast milk; a breast pump main body which generates negative pressure for expressing milk; an enlarged-diameter milk expressing section having an enlarged diameter for abutting against a breast of a user; and a shock absorbing section, at least a portion of which abuts against a breast of a user by being formed in a substantially circular trumpet shape following an opening section of the enlarged-diameter milk expressing section, wherein the shock absorbing section includes an abutting section which abuts against an areola of the user and a tight contact section which makes tight contact with the user's breast.

According to one embodiment, in a semiconductor apparatus, a semiconductor substrate has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. A semiconductor device is formed in a rectangular region enclosed by a plurality of dicing lines of the semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor device includes a first electrode provided on the first surface and a second electrode provided on the second surface so as to pass a current between the first electrode and the second electrode. A penetration electrode is formed in a region not enclosed by the dicing lines of the semiconductor substrate. One end of the penetration electrode extends on the first surface. The other end of the penetration electrode is electrically connected to the second electrode.

A component-incorporated wiring substrate is provided. Some embodiments include a plate-like component incorporated in a core substrate and a build-up layer having an insulation layer and a conductor layer disposed in alternating layers. The component has terminal electrodes formed at its opposite ends having a side surface and a main surface. An insulation layer disposed on the main surface of the component has via conductors formed therein which are connected to the side surfaces and the main surfaces of the respective terminal electrodes. The via conductors are tapered, such that their via diameter decreases in a direction toward the terminal electrode, and their via diameter at a position where they connect to the main surface is greater than a length of the main surface. Accordingly, the area of connection between the via conductors and the corresponding terminal electrodes is increased, improving connection reliability through enhancement of tolerance for positional deviation.

An information processing apparatus includes a user interface, a switching unit, and a computer. The user interface is for a user that operates a first processing unit that runs a first operating system or a second processing unit that runs a second operating system. The switching unit selectively switches between the first processing unit and the second processing unit to be associated with the user interface. The computer functions as the first processing unit. The computer functions as the second processing unit. The computer runs a first application program on the first operating system. The computer activates, on the second operating system, a second application program related to the first application program, in a state in which the first processing unit is associated with the user interface. The computer controls the switching unit upon completion of the activation of the second application program.

A reading section outputs density information of a gradation pattern image of a recording member. A gradation correction characteristic generation section generates a first gradation correction characteristic f(x). At first image quality adjustment, a detection section detects densities of patch pattern images on an image carrier, and the gradation correction characteristic generation section generates a second gradation correction characteristic g(x). At normal image quality adjustment, the detection section detects densities of patch pattern images on the image carrier, and the gradation correction characteristic generation section generates a second gradation correction characteristic g′(x). A calculation section calculates a difference gradation correction characteristic g″(x) between the gradation correction characteristic g(x) and the second gradation correction characteristic g′(x). An image quality maintaining control section multiplies the difference gradation correction characteristic g″(x) by the first gradation correction characteristic f(x), and adjusts an image quality of an image formed on the recording member.
摘要:
A composition for treating hearing loss includes components that function through different biological mechanisms to provide an additive effect that is greater than the effect of the individual components alone. The composition includes a biologically effective amount of vitamin E for inhibiting propagation of lipid peroxidation that contributes to hearing loss. The composition also includes a biologically effective amount of a salicylate for reducing hydroxyl radicals that contribute to hearing loss. A method of treating hearing loss includes the step of internally administering the composition, as described above, to a mammal within three days of trauma to a middle or inner ear of the mammal. In other words, the composition is effective even when administered as late as three days after trauma to a middle or inner ear of a mammal.

A mobile phone (1) includes: a blank area detection section (55) which detects a blank area whose size is determined by subtracting, from an entire area of a display screen, an image display area where an image is displayed and a character string display area where a character string is displayed; and a reposition control section (51) which changes the position or size of at least one of the image and the character string from an initial state, in such a way as to allow the image and the character string to be displayed in a single display screen. On this account, an image and a character string associated therewith are efficiently displayable in a single screen.
