Abstract: This invention provides a novel health food which is effective in
prevention and treatment of life-style related diseases in organs in the
circulatory system, such as hypertension, cerebral infarction, myocardial
infarction etc. by improving blood fluidity. Phospholipid components or
mineral components are collected from seaweeds of the genus  Porphyra 
and/or seaweeds of the genus  Undaria  and then formed into a health food
improving blood fluidity. This health food has an improving action on
blood fluidity, and is thus effective in prevention and treatment of life-style
related diseases in organs in the circulatory system, such as hypertension,
cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction etc.

Abstract: A method for casting a cylinder block with separate water jackets (6.1, 6.2) on each side of the block, for an IC engine, has metal ties (8) inserted into each end of the core mould, to join the water jackets. The metal ties are made of thin metal sheet with the thickness sufficient to stabilise the cores and to maintain the relative positions of the water jackets. The ties are removed by the molten charge during pouring of the casting. The separated water jackets have a different thickness for different flow rates, e.g. in a V-engine the inner sides of the blocks require more cooling than the outer sides.

Abstract: The automatic work apparatus extracts the target image of which photos are taken by the left and right CCD cameras, specifies the spatial position of the target and executes an operation to the target by the arm. Two regions, the central region and the peripheral ones, allocated to the image taken by the CCD camera so that if the target image stays in the peripheral region of the image then the cameras are rotated to take the target image in the central portion and the position determining module determines the spatial position of the target and then tasks are done for the targets. The relative distance from the target is adjusted by transfer equipment. This invention is applicable to an automatic work apparatus that can operate a predetermined operation for moving target and an automatic operation control program to carry out such operation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Bei schwierigen Fahrmanövern ist es für Führer von Kraftfahrzeugen
oft schwiering abzuschätzen, entlang welcher Bahn sich ihr Fahrzeug
bewegen wird und welcher Freiraum zur Kollisionsvermeidung notwending
ist. Dies ist insbesondere dann der Fall, wenn der Fahrzeugführer mit
den Abmaßen des Fahrzeugs oder dessen Fahrverhalten nicht vertraut ist.
Es wird ein Verfahren zur Überwachung des Freiraums in Fahrtrichtung
eines Fahrzeuges vorgeschlagen, bei welchem mittels eines Kamerasystems
Bilddaten des im Bereich der Fahrtrichtung befindlichen Fahrzeugumfeldes
aufgenommen werden. Zusätzlich wird auf Basis der Betriebsparameter und
der Abmessungen des Fahrzeuges innerhalb einer
Signalverarbeitungseinheit der für eine ungehinderte Fahrt benôtigte
Freiraum voraus berechnet. Dem Führer des Kraftfahrzeuges werden dabei
zumindest Teile der durch das Kamerasystem erfassten Bilddaten des
benötigten Freiraums auf einer Anzeige angezeigt. In erfinderischer
Weise werden die dem benötigten Freiraum zugeordneten Bilddaten einer
Weiterverarbeitung unterzogen, wobei als ein Ergebnis dieser
Weiterverarbeitung, der Fahrzeugführer darüber informiert wird, ob für
eine ungehinderte Fahrt ein ausreichender Freiraum zur Verfügung steht
oder nicht.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for signing electronic data with a digital signature in which a central server comprises a signature server 110 and a authentication server 120. The signature server 110 securely stores the private cryptographic keys of a number of users 102. The user 102 contacts the central server using a workstation 101 through a secure tunnel which is set up for the purpose. The user 102 supplies a password or other token 190, based on information previously supplied to the user by the authentication server 120 through a separate authentication channel. The authentication server provides the signature server with a derived version of the same information through a permanent secure tunnel between the servers, which is compared with the one supplied by the user 102. If they match, data received from the user 102 is signed with the user's private key.  101 workstation 101  102 user  110 signature server 110  111 HSM hardware signature module  112 signature server 110 database SSDB  120 authentication server  121 authentication server hardware signature module ASHSM  122 authentication server database ASDB  130 authentication device  140 workstation 101 (connection between workstation 101 and signature server 110)  150 connection between authentication server and signature server 110  151 connection between authentication server and authentication device  152 connection between authentication device and workstation 101  160 first signature server 110 client  161 second signature server 110 client  162 third signature server 110 client  170 first authentication server client  171 second authentication server client  172 third authentication server client  180 signature server 110 firewall  181 authentication server firewall  182 signature server 110 physical security  183 authentication server physical security  190 token

Abstract: A hydraulic drive system (11) of the type including a hydrostatic pump-motor unit (35) having a pumping mode in which the unit pressurizes, from its port (A), a high pressure accumulator (41), and a motoring mode, in which the unit is driven by pressurized fluid from the high pressure accumulator. The system also includes a low pressure accumulator (39) in communication with the opposite port (B) of the pump-motor unit (35), and a filter circuit (107) disposed therebetween. The filter circuit (107) defines an unrestricted first flow path from the low pressure accumulator to the port (B) when the unit is in the pumping mode, and a second flow path from the port (B) to the low pressure accumulator when the unit is in the motoring mode. The second flow path comprises one path portion (125) through a filter shut-off valve (121) and a filter (127) in series, and in parallel therewith, another path portion through a controlled flow restriction (135). Thus, filtration occurs during only the motoring mode, and the percentage of fluid being filtered can be predetermined.

Abstract: This invention provides a resolver signal processing method and apparatus capable of enlarging an appropriate computation possible range and relaxing the installation accuracy of mechanical components which constitute a resolver and its surroundings. 
     The electrically-powered steering apparatus obtains a steering torque and a steering angle within an allowable input range of those inputted into a first resolver and a second resolver based on a real zero point α and further, a steering torque and a steering angle out of the allowable input range of those inputted to the first resolver and the second resolver based on (+) virtual zero point β and (-) virtual zero point γ, which are set to a different value from the real zero point α. Consequently, of the steering torques and steering angles inputted to the first resolver and the second resolver, the steering torque and steering angle out of the allowable input range impossible to obtain by the real zero point α can be obtained based on the (+) virtual zero point β and the (-) virtual zero point γ.
