摘要:
A fluid volume measuring apparatus for measuring volume of fluid flowing out of a measured object includes a passage member that defines a measurement passage. The measurement passage is filled with fluid, which is capable of moving in the measurement passage in accordance with volume of fluid flowing out of the measured object. The fluid filled in the measurement passage forms a bubble. The passage member has a translucent portion in a predetermined measurement range, in which the bubble displaces in accordance with volume of fluid flowing out of the object to be measured. The translucent portion is formed of a translucent material. Volume of fluid, which flows out of the measured object, is measured in accordance with displacement of the bubble.
摘要:
A system is communicably coupled to an external device at least when rewriting, at least in a module, a first application program stored in a first memory of the system into a second application program stored in the external device. In the system, a receiving unit is configured to receive an identifier sent from the external device. The identifier decides a sending timing of the second application program from the external device. In the system, an identification unit is configured to identify that write target data sent from the external device is at least a module of the second application program after the identifier is received by the receiving unit.

A sealed case includes an elongated trunk member including an overlapped part made by overlapping parts of an inside end portion and an outside end portion apart from each other in a vertical axis direction of a sheet material and first and second end portions each provided with an opening and apart from each other. The overlapped part has a fixing area to fix the inside and outside end portions. First and second cover members are fixed to the first and second open end portions of the trunk member, closing the openings.
摘要:
A nutritional composition for controlling blood sugar level comprising a protein, a lipid and a carbohydrate, wherein energy percentages supplied by the protein, lipid and carbohydrate are 10 to 25%, 20 to 35% and 40 to 60%, respectively; and oleic acid in the lipid energy percentage is 60 to 90% and palatinose and/or trehalulose in the carbohydrate energy percentage is 60 to 100%. The composition is useful as an oral or tube feeding nutrient for nutritional management or blood sugar level control of patients suffering from diabetes and glucose intolerance, or for obesity prevention, a therapeutic diet, a diet for diabetic patients at home, an obesity preventive diet or a food with health claims.

In a helical antenna operable at a plurality of frequencies, a radiation element includes a first pitch portion which is connected to a feeding point and in which the electric conductor is wound around or folded back at a first pitch, and a second pitch portion which is connected to the first pitch portion and in which the electric conductor is wound around or folded back at a second pitch different from the first pitch. A tip end stab element extended from the tip end of the radiation element is placed in close proximity of the radiation element. The radiation element and the tip end element form frequency selection means or a parallel resonant circuit at an intermediate point of the radiation element.

The present invention provides a recording medium device ejection structure which is useful to minimize the outside dimension of a recording medium device and to increase the mounting area of a printed circuit on an adapter to which the recording medium device is inserted. The recording medium device comprises a recording medium body and a case having a recess for accommodating the recording medium body, and is attached to the adapter detachably. The adapter is provided with a cover, the first lever provided on the cover, and the second lever which is in contact with the first lever at one end. The first lever gets in the recess provided on the recording medium device to resultantly push up the recording medium device, and the recording medium device is thereby ejected. A connector not shown in the drawing to which the recording medium device is inserted does not necessarily have a recording medium device ejection mechanism, and thus the product is made small-sized.
摘要:
A polyester is provided that comprises as main monomer components thereof a dicarboxylic acid and a diol, including a p-quaterphenyl derivative of specific formula. The use of appropriate kinds of dicarboxylic acid for the polyester makes it possible to obtain a thermoplastic elastomer or an engineering platic material (i.e., liquid-crystal polymer).
摘要:
Rolling element bores are provided in the outer circumferential portion of a disk-like main body. Each rolling element bore has an arcuate outer rim. Rollers each have a groove formed on the peripheral edge and extending along the entire circumference of the roller. The outer rim of each rolling element bore engages with the groove of the associated roller so that the roller is loosely fitted in the rolling element bore. Shafts are respectively formed on both sides of each roller. The shafts project from the center of the roller. An elastic ring is mounted on each shaft. Annular guide plates are respectively mounted on both sides of the disk-like main body so that the shafts of the rollers are supported by the guide plates.

According to one embodiment, an information processing apparatus includes a volume operation module, a first volume controller and a second volume controller. The volume operation module includes a rotary encoder module of detecting a degree of movement of a control member thereof and a potentiometer module of detecting an absolute position of the control member. The first volume controller controls the volume of the audio signal based on the detected degree of movement of the control member. The second volume controller controls the volume of the audio signal based on the detected absolute position of the control member. The volume control by the first volume controller is rendered effective when the information processing apparatus is in a power-on state. The volume control by the second volume controller is rendered effective when the information processing apparatus is in a power-off state.
摘要:
The present inventors discovered that the onset of galactosamine hepatopathy is suppressed by nutritional compositions comprising as essential ingredients: whey protein hydrolysates; lecithin and oils and fats high in oleic acid, which are able to improve the lipid metabolism; and palatinose having an insulin-sparing effect. Furthermore, the whey protein hydrolysate included in the nutritional compositions was found to suppress endotoxin-induced TNF-a and interleukin 6 (IL-6) production in macrophages.
