The differential apparatus comprises (a) a casing rotated by a driving force from outside; (b) a pair of opposing disc plates coaxially disposed in the casing, an opposing surface of each disc plate being formed with a circumferentially continuous groove winding such that a radial position changes at a constant period; (c) a plurality of balls rolling in opposing winding continuous grooves of both disc plates; and (d) a ball holder rotating integrally with the casing and having a plurality of radially extending guide holes, each guide hole movably receiving each ball, wherein the winding continuous groove of each disc plate circumferentially continuously has first guide regions each extending from a radially outer position to a radially inner position of each disc plate and second guide regions each extending from a radially inner position to a radially outer position, inflected regions each connecting each first guide region and each second guide region being larger in width and/or depth than the first guide regions and the second guide regions, whereby a contact stress between the balls and the winding continuous groove is decreased in the inflected regions.

A program creation/supply apparatus connects with a client apparatus via a communication network, and prompts the client apparatus to select one or items of content and enter desired additional information in correspondence with the selected items of content. Program file is created on the basis of content selection information and the additional information transmitted from the client apparatus. The thus-created program file is added to a database. When a user selects a desired program, the program file of the selected program and one or more items of content defining the program are read out from the database and supplied to the user via the communication network. Also, content created by the user can be received via the network and added to the database. The content added to the database can be selected for use in program file creation.
摘要:
In a system for animating an object along a music, a sequencer module sequentially provides music control information and a synchronization signal in correspondence with the music to be played. A parameter setting module is operable to set motion parameters effective to determine movements of movable parts of the object. An audio module is responsive to the synchronization signal for generating a sound in accordance with the music control information to thereby play the music. A video module is responsive to the synchronization signal for generating a motion image of the object in matching with progression of the music. The video module utilizes the motion parameters to basically control the motion image, and utilizes the music control information to further control the motion image in association with the played music.
