Abstract: To enhance a locking force of a locking portion while keeping a connector
small. 
     A plurality of cavities 31 are formed side by side along transverse direction in
a female housing 30, and a locking portion 40 is formed on the ceiling surface of
each cavity 31. A female terminal fitting 10 is inserted into the corresponding cavity
31 while resiliently deforming the locking portion 40. When the female terminal fitting
10 is inserted by a specified distance, the locking portion 40 is restored to engage a
leading end surface 45 thereof with a locking surface 24 of the female terminal fitting
10, thereby locking the female terminal fitting 10. Side surfaces of the adjacent locking
portions 40 are coupled to each other by coupling pieces 51. If a large pulling
force acts on the female terminal fitting 10, it may be withdrawn while forcibly resiliently
deforming the locking portion 40. However, each locking portion 40 is difficult
to undergo a resilient deformation by having such a resilient deformation restricted
by the coupled adjacent locking portion(s) 40. Thus, a locking force for locking the
female terminal fitting 10 can be enhanced. Further, since the locking portions 40 are
coupled, taking advantage of a dead space between the side surfaces of the locking
portions 40, the height of the female housing 30 can be reduced.

Abstract: Motion detecting apparatus has a separation unit (130), an operation unit (140) and
a comparison unit (150). The separation unit (130) separates a bit stream in relation
to a motion predicted image from a compressed encoded image bit stream. The
operation unit (140) calculates an average value of the bit stream in relation to the
motion predicted image separated at the separation unit (130). The comparison unit
(150) detects a motion when the average value is greater than a predetermined
threshold after comparing the average value and the threshold. Thus, because a
motion in an input image can be detected by using a compressed encoded image bit
stream, a separate circuit or input image processing is not required to detect the
motion and adverse affects of camera noise on the detection results can be reduced.

Abstract: An apparatus for guaranteeing MCR in an ATM device includes at least one queue for each service category, a scheduler for dequeuing cells from the queues, a queue status block for indicating which queues are empty, and an MCR service block. The MCR service block includes a plurality of timers, at least one for each service category. According to the methods of the invention, an MCR value is selected for each queue (or service category) and a timer in the MCR service block is set according to the MCR value. The scheduler dequeues cells in strict priority from non-empty queues as determined by the queue status block. The scheduler is preempted, however, by the MCR service block when a queue fails to be serviced before its associated timer expires. The arrangement of queues and associated timers is subject to alternate embodiments.

Abstract: In a liquid feed fuel cell system, substantially pure fuel needs to be added to a dilute mixture of fuel in water so as to maintain the fuel concentration at an appropriate level for use with the fuel cell system. Under passive control of the fuel concentration, a first equilibrium concentration is established between the substantially pure fuel and a fuel transfer medium. A second equilibrium concentration is then established between the fuel transfer medium and the dilute mixture for use with the fuel cell system. The system is "passive" as it does not rely on the measurement of the fuel concentration and direct injection of fuel. The fuel transfer medium can be solid, liquid or gas.
