An image quality adjusting circuit in an image processing apparatus is provided with a line memory unit, a delay circuit unit, a first to fourth filter processing circuits, and an adder. In the delay circuit unit, delay circuits are arranged in a matrix form. Delay circuits arranged in a horizontal direction receive an image data directly or via line memories. The image quality adjusting circuit each perform filter processing on the received image data signals lying in a horizontal direction, in a vertical direction, in a down-right direction, and in a down-left direction. The image quality adjusting circuit performs addition of the image data on a focus pixel and the filter-processed data, and thus performs edge correction processing.

Cell-to-cell connection plates (1) each integrally having a welding part (2) shaped to fall within a circular end of a battery case (7) and a connecting part (2) extending from this welding part (2) are provided. The cell-to-cell connection plates (1) are attached to one electrode terminal and the other electrode terminal of the battery case (7) by welding the welding parts (2), respectively. The connecting parts (3) of the respective cell-to-cell connection plates (1) attached to each adjoining pair of cylindrical batteries (Ba) are overlapped with each other and coupled into electric connection. Consequently, regardless of whether a plurality of cylindrical batteries (Ba) are axially arranged in series or radially juxtaposed, each adjoining two can be connected to each other by using the identical cell-to-cell connection plates (1) for cost reduction. It is also possible to provide a sufficient heat dissipation effect and achieve sufficient robustness and weight saving even when connecting large-sized cylindrical batteries.

A cooling fan includes a fan ring to be attached to an end surface of a rotor core near the outer circumference thereof, and a plurality of fins connected to the fan ring. The fan ring has positioning leg portions provided on an end surface thereof facing a thrust direction. The fan ring is positioned in relation to the rotor core through insertion of the positioning leg portions into core slots of the rotor core. The fan ring has wire accommodation recesses which are formed on the end surface of the fan ring facing the thrust direction and communicate with the core slots.

An inter-battery connection device for connecting terminals of two batteries (1a, 1b) arranged with their axes parallel to each other. The inter-battery connection device includes an inter-battery connection plate (11) that connects the battery case bottom (2) and the sealing plate (3) of the two batteries. The inter-battery connection plate (11) includes welding portions (4) at the ends of its base plate (6) for welding to the case bottom (2) and the sealing plate (3), respectively. An intermediate metal plate (7) is joined to the middle part of the base plate (6) between the welding portions (4, 4) to form an intermediate portion (5) having a greater thickness than each welding portion (4). The inter-battery connection device has reduced electric resistance while achieving improved weldability.

A hollow cylindrically shaped anisotropic bonded magnet for use in a 4-pole motor, is formed by molding anisotropic rare-earth magnet powder with resin. The alignment distribution of the anisotropic rare-earth magnet powder in a cross section perpendicular to the axis of the anisotropic bonded magnet is in the normalized direction of the cylindrical side of the hollow cylindrical shape in the main region of a polar period, and in a transition region in which the direction of the magnetic pole changes, steadily points towards a direction tangential to the periphery of the cylindrical side at points closer to the neutral point of the magnetic pole, and becomes a direction tangential to the periphery of the cylindrical side at that neutral point, and steadily points toward the normalized direction of the cylindrical side at points farther away from the neutral point.

A fuel supply system for a boat includes a vapor separator tank connected to a fuel tank mounted on a hull of the boat to contain fuel therein, an injector to supply fuel to an engine, and a high-pressure fuel pump to supply fuel that is contained in the vapor separator tank to the injector. The high-pressure fuel pump includes a pump main portion having a fuel path and a pump driving section that are separated from the fuel path of the pump main portion. The fuel supply system minimizes deterioration in engine startability.

A dual-chamber type prefilled syringe comprises a cylindrical body within which a front plug member, a middle plug member and an end plug member are hermetically fitted to form a first chamber and a second chamber. The cylindrical body (2) has an inner surface formed with a bypass (14). When the middle plug member (7) moves to a position where the bypass (14) is formed, the first chamber (9) is communicated with the second chamber (10) for the first time via the bypass (14). In this beginning state of liquid transfer (S), an inner volume (VS) of the cylindrical body (2) between a leading end (2a) of the cylindrical body (2) and a rear end (6b) of the front plug member (6) is set to be at least 60% of a volume (VC) of a second component (12). When liquid component within the second chamber flows into the first chamber, it is possible to prevent part of the liquid component from passing through the first chamber to reach a portion for attaching an injection needle at a leading end of the cylindrical body.
