coins for each denomination taken out from the coin storing box, and store
a predetermined number of coins in the coin storing cylinder for each
denomination, the controller being further constituted so as to, when
coins are to be dispensed, take out coins stored in the coin storing cylinder,
cause the sensor unit to discriminate and count coins taken out from the
coin storing cylinder for each denomination, and feed the coins to the coin
receiving and dispensing opening based on the discrimination and
counting done by the sensor unit, the controller furthermore being
constituted so as to cause the sensor unit to discriminate whether or not
coins deposited through the coin receiving and dispensing opening are
acceptable and denominations of coins and count the number of the coins
of each denomination, and store the coins deposited through the coin

Abstract: A slip control system of a lockup torque converter
includes a pre-compensator that pre-compensates for a target
slip-rotation speed to produce a target slip-rotation speed
correction value. A feedback compensator is provided to
feedback-control an engagement capacity of a lock-up clutch
based on a deviation between the target slip-rotation speed
correction value and an actual slip-rotation speed to bring
the actual slip-rotation speed closer to the target slip-rotation
speed. Also provided is a dead-time processing
section that compensates for the target slip-rotation speed
correction value to reflect a dead time of dynamic
characteristics peculiar to the slip control system in the
target slip-rotation speed correction value. The dead-time
compensated output is fed to the feedback compensator. The
dead time is variable in accordance with a predetermined
dead time characteristic.

Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for inhibiting and reversing
nonenzymatic cross-linking (protein aging). Accordingly, compositions are disclosed
which comprise an agent capable of inhibiting the formation of advanced glycosylation
endproducts of target proteins, and which additionally reverse pre-formed crosslinks in the
advanced glycosylation endproducts by cleaving alpha-dicarbonyl-based protein crosslinks
present in the advanced glycosylation endproducts. Certain agents useful are thiazolium
salts. The method comprises contacting the target protein with the composition. Both
industrial and therapeutic applications for the invention are envisioned, as food spoilage
and animal protein aging can be treated. A novel immunoassay for detection of the reversal
of the nonenzymatic crosslinking is also disclosed.

Abstract: When a machine body 3 of a machining center 2 is being
used to machine a component based on CAM data, an in-process
information processing module 1a transfers to a host
computer 5 in-process information of the component which
is obtained by integrally processing detection data output
from a temperature sensor, a vibration sensor, etc. provided
to the machine body 3, to cause the in-process information
of the component to be displayed on a display of the host
computer 5 in such a manner that the in-process information
can be compared to CAD data. In such a manner, a person
in charge of the machining center can obtain improvement
information in a machining process of the component based
on comparison between the in-process information and the
CAD data, to thereby improve an efficiency of an
experimental-production process, thus reducing a

Abstract: A method and human-machine interface for backbone Virtual Local Area Network
(VLAN) provisioning in bridged networking environments are provided. The method
includes steps of provisioning backbone VLAN support on every backbone data
transport trunk and by extension of every stackable data trunk port in the associated
data transport network. The human-machine interface enables an operator to
expediently effect VLAN provisioning abstracting the intricacies of the data transport
network over which VLAN services are provisioned. Advantages are derived from
backbone VLAN provisioning independent of an underlying in-use active spanning-tree
topology. In particular backbone VLANs are provisioned over spanning-tree stand-by
designated backbone data transport trunk links and therefore pre-provisioned in the
case of spanning-tree re-configuration. Customer VLANs are mapped onto backbone
VLANs ensuring data traffic differentiation, and providing standard VLAN identifier
portability. Operator VLAN provisioning tasks are lessened via provisions for the
selection of all backbone/stackable data transport trunk links/ports in the data transport
network in effecting VLAN identifier associations therebetween.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des circuits de commande de l'interférence d'intermodulation passive qui sont construits à partir d'éléments distribués de longueur définie et de segments d'impédance de moyens de transmission. Les éléments distribués peuvent être combinés à des éléments discrets classiques, tels que des résistances, pour créer un circuit passif qui peut être accordé pour avoir une réponse en fréquence désirée, lorsqu'on sélectionne la taille, la longueur et la position des éléments distribués. De cette manière, le circuit de commande de l'interférence d'intermodulation passive (IMP) complet est spécifiquement construit à partir d'un ensemble d'éléments discrets et distribués et directement connecté aux moyens de transmission (ou dans ces derniers) transportant l'énergie électromagnétique analogique, par l'intermédiaire d'une extension continue des moyens de transmission. Ainsi, le circuit de commande de l'interférence IMP peut être situé très près de la source de l'interférence IMP, de même que le diviseur de puissance de l'antenne. Lorsqu'il se trouve stratégiquement placé dans cette position, le circuit IMP commande l'interférence d'intermodulation directement à la source, avant son entrée dans l'électronique du récepteur.
