Abstract: A sensor system includes a plurality of sensor bodies (1) arranged
aligned and adjacent to each other, each of said sensor bodies being
connected to an electric cord (8, 9) including at least a signal line via a
connector (2, 3). Each connector (2, 3) has a power feed terminal, and a
detachable fitting for electrically connecting the power feed terminals of the
connectors is provided between the connectors. The power supplied to the
connector (2, 3) of any of the sensor body (1) through the power feed line in
the electric cord (8, 9) is distributed to the power feed terminal of another
sensor body (1) through a row of connectors. By this configuration, the
number of power feed lines for the overall system can be significantly
reduced, and common bodies not distinguished for the main and sub bodies
can be used as the sensor bodies (1), whereby the cost can be reduced and
inventory management can be facilitated. Further, when any of the sensor
bodies fails, it is possible to simply exchange the failed sensor body (1) only,
while maintaining the use of the electric cord that has been used.

Abstract: The engine 110 is a multiple shaft ducted fan by-pass
type gas turbine engine. An electrical generator 150 is
driven by the low pressure shaft 116. An electrical motor
152 is driven by power generated by the generator 150. This
is shown as being external to the engine. The generator 150
and motor 152 are connected, in use, by an uninterrupted
electrical conductor arrangement 156. The motor 152 may
drive hydraulic pumps or other systems. Thus, power is taken
off the engine in purely electrical form with significant
consequential advantages in weight reduction, simplicity and
reliability.

Abstract: Friction stir joining is carried out on members 20,
30, 40 by means of rotary tools 340A, 340B moving along
two joining lines simultaneously. Where one of the two
joining lines is interrupted, e.g. for a window 210, at a
position P1 the rotary tool 340A is withdrawn from the
joining material. At a position P3, gradual withdrawal
of the rotary tool 340B is started. At a position P4,
the travel of both tools 340A and 340B is stopped, and
the tool 340B is completely withdrawn. Next, the tools
340A and 340B are inserted again and the travel is
started again. The reinsertion amount of the tool 340B
is larger than its insertion at the time of stopping the
travel. Good friction stir joining along both lines can
be obtained.

Abstract: A spatial light communication equipment being capable of
providing compatibility between two communication equipments
placed opposite to each other and of providing, with simplified
configurations, highly accurate seizure and tracking capability
and excellent beam directivity for ultra-long-distance
communication. 
     Angular error in a receiving beam (36) is detected by an
angle detector (33) disposed on an optical axis of light reflected
by a first reflecting plane of a beam deflector (32) and, based
on detected results, an angle deflected by the beam deflector (32)
is corrected. The deflected angle of a transmitting beam is
controlled by using a second reflecting plane which is a
back-surface of the first reflecting plane of the beam deflector
(32) and an error being equivalent to angular error occurring in
the receiving beam is accurately corrected to obtain correct
direction of emittance of the transmitting beam by using a signal
transmitting optical antenna (31) having same magnification as
signal receiving optical antenna (31) has and having polarity being
opposite to the signal receiving optical antenna (31).(See Fig.

Abstract: In an organic light emitting device, a hole transporting layer
12 is formed on an anode 10, and is then doped with a phosphorescent
molecule such as Ir(ppy) 3  or the like to thereby form a light emitting
layer. On the light emitting layer is formed an electron
transporting layer 14 on which is formed a cathode 16. Use of
the host material of the present invention makes possible an organic
light emitting device having high phosphorescence emission
efficiency and high heat-resistance, because energy transfer from
the host material to the phosphorescent molecule is easy and the
glass transition temperature of the organic molecules used is 100
°C and above. Emission efficiency can be further increased through
use in the electron transporting layer 14 use of a compound with
an ionization potential at least 0.1 eV greater than that of the
hole transporting layer.

Abstract: Novel isoquinoloine compounds inhibit inflammatory responses associated with
TNF-α and fibroblast proliferation  in vivo  and  in vitro.  The compounds of the invention
neither appreciably inhibit the activity of cAMP phosphodiesterase nor the hydrolysis of
phosphatidic acid, and are neither cytotoxic nor cytostatic. Preferred compounds of the
invention are esters. Methods for the use of the novel compounds to inhibit ceramide-mediated
intracellular responses to stimuli  in vivo  (particularly TNF-α) are also
described. The methods are expected to be of use in reducing inflammatory responses
(for example, after angioplasty), in limiting fibrosis (for example, of the liver in
cirrhosis), in inhibiting cell senescence, cell apoptosis and UV induced cutaneous
immune suppression.
