Abstract: A child safety seat comprising a seat body (10)
and a base (14), is adapted to be secured on a vehicle seat
by a lap strap (20) of a vehicle seat belt. A front foot
(28) is pivotally mounted on the front part of the seat
body (10, 14) so as to be movable between a first position
and a second position in which it projects downwardly from
the seat body (10, 14) to a greater extent that when in its
first position so as to compress the front part of the
vehicle seat cushion (22). This reduces the extent of
angular movement of the child seat which can take place
subsequent to installation, for example during an accident,
before the front foot (28) abuts against the rigid
structure of the vehicle seat with the maximum possible
compression of the seat cushion trapped therebetween.

Abstract: The invention relates to an oral hygiene appliance with a resilient-elastic, plastic foam - like working piece on the head of a holding piece. The aim of the invention is to avoid possible penetration by cohesing or adhesion inside the foamed material by undesired bacteria, viruses and dirt particles, as is the case in hitherto known teeth cleaning appliances with elastic foamed materials. This aim is achieved in that the working piece consists of a stamping made of closed-cell foamed material (A), for example EVA-mixed polymer foamed material, whereby the cells (B) on the wall of the stamped hole are opened by the stamping.

selection and deselection of rows via the reset busses. During selection of a
particular row the amplifiers within each pixel of that row are operatively
connected to the column signal bus while the amplifiers of the remaining rows are

Abstract: A data processing system and method of maintaining cache
coherency in a data processing system are described. The data processing system
includes a plurality of caches and a plurality of processors grouped into at least first
and second clusters, where each of the first and second clusters has at least one
upper level cache and at least one lower level cache. According to the method, a
first data item in the upper level cache of the first cluster is stored in association
with an address tag indicating a particular address. A coherency indicator in the
upper level cache of the first cluster is set to a first state that indicates that the
address tag is valid and that the first data item is invalid. Similarly, in the upper
level cache of the second cluster, a second data item is stored in association with an
address tag indicating the particular address. In addition, a coherency indicator in
the upper level cache of the second cluster is set to the first state. Thus, the data
processing system implements a coherency protocol that permits a coherency
indicator in the upper level caches of both of the first and second clusters to be set
to the first state.

one connector or male connector (32), and a push-out guide surface

Abstract: A discrete pixel image (106) is enhanced to bring out particular
features of interest such as edges. The enhancement includes decomposition
of the original processed image data, enhancement by application of gain
images to the decomposed images, and reconstruction of the enhanced
image. The decomposition proceeds through a series of low-pass filters
(110,112) to arrive at decomposed images of progressively lower spatial
frequencies. These decomposed images are then multiplied by gain images
during the enhancement phase. Gain images for at least the higher spatial
frequency level images are derived (116) from lower spatial frequency level
images. These spatial frequency-based gain images may be based upon
operator inputs, including a spatial sensitivity, fimction and an edge
enhancement value. Lower spatial frequency level images may be
processed by application (118) of predetermined gain values. The
reconstruction sequence recombines the decomposed images (120) after
application of the gains to arrive at an enhanced image of the same
dimensions as the original image.

Abstract: A cooling apparatus includes a lubricating fluid tank, a lubricating fluid nozzle, a
lubricating fluid regulating device, a cooling fluid tank, a cooling fluid nozzle and a
cooling fluid regulating device. 
     The cooling fluid nozzle supplies cooling fluid to the workpiece to enhance
cooling effect of the cooling fluid. The lubricating fluid nozzle feeds lubricating fluid to
the machining zone to prevent frictional heat generated in the machining zone from raising
temperature of the workpiece. Since an appropriate amount of the lubricating fluid within
the range helps the cooling effect of the cooling fluid, a quantity of the cooling fluid is
reduced within the minimum range of the cooling fluid. A consumption of the lubricating
fluid is much smaller than that of the cooling fluid. Therefore, a total amount of the fluids
is extremely reduced.
