Abstract: A contra-angle dental handpiece is capable of rotating
a cutting tool in the forward direction when the cutting tool
is in the most advanced position in a root canal of a tooth
and preventing the reverse rotation of the cutting tool when
the cutting tool is retracted therefrom. The contra-angle
dental handpiece includes a rotation shaft for rotating a
dental cutting tool about a rotation axis, a drive shaft in a
direction about a right angle to the rotation shaft, and a
drive mechanism for driving the dental cutting tool in a
backward and forward direction of the rotation axis and for
at least rotating the dental cutting tool in the forward
rotational direction about the rotation axis when the cutting
tool is at around a most advanced position in a root canal of
a tooth. The contra-angle dental handpiece further includes
a tool chucker for attaching the cutting tool to the dental
handpiece.

Abstract: The present invention relates a battery control apparatus (9) controls charge/discharge
processes of a battery (8) installed in a hybrid vehicle, according to the battery temperature so as
to prevent degradation of the battery performance. The vehicle has a combustion engine (1) for
providing a driving force, an electric motor (2) for generating a drive assist force for assisting
the output of the engine, wherein the battery supplies electrical power to the motor, and, when
the drive-assist force is not required by the engine, the motor is used as a generator to charged
the battery, the apparatus is comprised by: a residual battery charge computation device (91) for
computing a level of residual battery charge in the battery; a battery temperature measuring
device for measuring a temperature of the battery; and a charge/discharge controller (92) that
operates in such a way that, when a battery temperature measured by the battery temperature
measuring device exceeds a threshold temperature, the charge/discharge controller permits only
discharging until the residual battery charge is lowered to a level defined by a first specified
value.

Abstract: A polishing device with improved distribution of the coolant fluid, particularly for marble,
granite, ceramics, stoneware, porcelain stoneware and the like, includes a shaft (10)
which is kinematically connected to a motor means (13) and performs an axial translatory
motion, and a plurality of polishing bodies (11) at at least one of the ends of the shaft
(10); its particularity consists of the fact that it includes a means (15) for distributing the
coolant fluid which is associated with the shaft (10) and is arranged proximate to the
plurality of polishing bodies (11). The invention fully solves the problems observed in
conventional devices, since it is able to actually convey the fluid in the working area of the
polishing bodies (11), differently from conventional polishing devices, in which the fluid
falls centrally without being directed toward the working regions where it is needed.

Abstract: An optical filter having a wide tuning range and a method of making the same. A fiber Bragg grating member (408) having a selected grating pitch is coupled to a plurality of actuating members such as Shape Memory Alloys (406A-406F). A current source or thermal source is included for providing a controlled amount of current or heat so as to cause a change in the length of the actuating members. The length of the fiber Bragg grating member is accordingly changed also. The grating pitch is correspondingly altered, thereby causing a change in the Bragg resonance wavelength of the grating. In response, a reflected optical signal selected from incoming multiplexed optical signals tunes to a different wavelength. A closed-loop controller is provided for controlling energy inputs to the actuating members to modulate the tuning of the reflected optical signals. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A recording and reproducing system has two controllers.
One of the controllers compares broadcast schedule
list data with the data bases of a plurality of
recorder/reproducers to detect which recorder/reproducers
have not recorded which material, controls a cart machine to
reproduce the video and audio signals of the detected material,
and controls the detected recorder/reproducers to
record the reproduced video and audio signals. The other
controller places the recorder/reproducers in a playback mode
based on broadcast control data, and controls them to reproduce
and transmit the video and audio signals of materials at
corresponding broadcasting times. The recording and reproducing
system can automatically carry out a preparatory process
to reproduce the same material in a plurality of transmission
channels, can easily change the order in which materials
are scheduled to be transmitted immediately before they
are broadcast, and is relatively inexpensive to manufacture.
The recording and reproducing system operates highly efficiently
because any missing materials can be recorded while a
program material or a live broadcast is being transmitted.
