摘要:
In an information processing apparatus adapted to determine information, to be presented to a user, as to one or more contents, a calculation unit calculates the similarity between a first search axis, produced on the basis of information associated with the user, for use as a reference on the basis of which to present contents and a second search axis, produced on the basis of information associated with one of other users, for use as a reference on the basis of which to present contents, and a display control unit controls displaying of information associated with contents with reference to first and second search axes detected as being similar to each other.
摘要:
A lower unit for an outboard drive has an elongated length in order to present a streamline shape while providing sufficient width to house a transmission for a counter-rotational propeller system with a forwardly-oriented clutch element. One of the clutch elements of the transmission lies in front of the transmission gears to increase the flow area through an exhaust discharge path behind the transmission. In order to accommodate this transmission structure, the lower unit has an increased with at a point forward of the associated drive shaft. The lower unit also has an increased length as measured from the drive shaft forward in order to present a streamline shape within the water. The elongated length of the lower unit also improves the directional and rolling stability of the outboard drive.

A transmission for a marine outboard drive includes a compact bearing arrangement to provide an increased flow area for exhaust discharge behind the transmission with a lower unit of the drive. The bearing arrangement also improves the stability of a supported propulsion shaft. The bearing arrangement includes a first bearing assembly which supports the propulsion shaft at a point corresponding with the axial location at which a driving clutch is coupled to the shaft. The clutch selectively engages a driven gear of the transmission to drive the propulsion shaft. A thrust flange on the propulsion shaft desirably is positioned between the first bearing assembly and a second bearing assembly which journals the driven gear.
摘要:
A semiconductor substrate is supported on a lower electrode provided within a chamber. The semiconductor substrate is heated up to about 600.degree. to 700.degree. by radiation heat from a halogen lamp. While the pressure within the chamber is reduced to about 0.1 to 1 Torr, the lower electrode is used as a positive electrode, and an upper electrode is used as a negative electrode. In this state, a DC voltage of 20 V is applied from a DC power supply. Then, a material gas is introduced into the chamber via an introducing hole, and a polysilicon film is grown on an oxide film on the semiconductor substrate. Electricity in the oxide film increases an initial growth rate of the polysilicon film and prevents formation of pinholes in the polysilicon film.
摘要:
A magnetic recording medium which comprises a non-magnetic substrate, a magnetic recording layer formed on one side of said substrate, and a back coat layer formed on the other side of the substrate. The back coat layer is made of a composition which comprises particles of carbon black, titanium monoxide or a mixture thereof having an average size not larger than 1 micrometer and a resin binder dispersing the particles therein. The particles are individually precoated with an isocyanate compound. When coated titanium monoxide particles are used singly, non-coated carbon black is effectively used in combination.
