Abstract: An electric heat sealer that has a main body having a longitudinal axis, and
a sealing mechanism having a center point. The center point of the sealing
mechanism is offset from the longitudinal axis. The electric heat sealer is used
for sealing work pieces such as plastic bags or the like and also includes a casing
defining a battery chamber and a press bar pivotally connected to the casing.

Abstract: A bit-rate converting apparatus and a method thereof, in which
bit-rate conversion is executed by low computational complexity, are
provided. The bit-rate conversion is executed in a frequency domain,
and psycho-acoustic analysis is not needed by using information included
in an inputted bit-stream before the bit-rate conversion is applied.
With this, the computational complexity is lowered. And in order that
many equal values are not contained in a frequency domain signal, which
is inputted to a quantizing means, a quantized value before inverse
quantizating is applied is modified, or an inverse quantized value after
the inverse quantizing was applied is modified. With this, fine control
for the bit-rate is made to be easy.

body is provided with a permanent magnet. Thus, the movable
body oscillates by supplying a control signal to the driving
electromagnet.
