Abstract: A tape guide (38) that provides support for a storage tape (30) of a tape drive (10) during a loss of tension of the storage tape (30). The tape drive (10) includes a drive housing (12), a tape roller (34) having a longitudinal axis (36), and the tape guide (38). The tape guide (38) includes a guide body (40) coupled to the drive housing (12), and a tape support (42) secured to the guide body (40). The tape support (42) has a support width (126) that is greater than a support thickness (124). The tape support (42) can include a curved region (120). Moreover, the tape support (42) can include a support backing (122) that secures the tape support (42) to the guide body (40). The size, shape and positioning of the tape support (42) allows greater flexibility in a lateral direction that generally follows a tape path (32) than in a direction that is substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis (36) of the tape roller (34).

Abstract: The present invention relates to an optoelectronic modules in which a variable optical attenuator (VOA) is
incorporated with further passive and active optical components to form an integrated module which
is inexpensive and yields small yet robust packages. The module provides for a variable output
power and can be installed and replaced via a 'hot pluggable' connector. 
     Light (21) from semiconductor laser (24) is collimated by first lens
(25) and transmitted through optional isolator (23) and (VOA 22) before
being focused by second lens (26) into connector (28). Connector (28) is
typically a fibre stub. At least one of either the laser, isolator
and/or VOA may be mounted on a thermoelectric cooler in a hermetic
enclosure. The light source, variable optical attenuator, and connector
are mounted within the module housing (34). The isolator may also be
mounted in the housing. The laser drive electronics and VOA controller
are mounted on a (PCB 30), which may also be located within the module
housing (34).

Abstract: When a shift position is shifted from an R range to a D
range and when the shift position is shifted from the D range
to the R range, an electrically-operated parking brake device
is automatically cancelled. In this manner, the
electrically-operated parking brake device is cancelled
without waiting for the depression of an accelerator pedal with
a driver's intention to start a vehicle taken into consideration.
Therefore, it is possible not only to alleviate a burden on the
driver in canceling the electrically-operated parking brake
device, but also to prevent an abrupt starting of the vehicle
due to the cancellation of the electrically-operated parking
brake device while the accelerator pedal is being depressed to
transmit a large driving force to driven wheels.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to improve electrical
insulation between a small conductor segment and large
conductor segment which forms stator coils inserted into
slots of stator core of a driving motor for a automobile
vehicle. The axial length of the curved head 3a' is made
shorter than that of the curved head 3a. Further, the
distance "d" between the border point "c" (the border point
between the curved head 3a and legs 3b) and border point
"c' " (the border point between the curved head 3a' and legs
3b') is made greater than the difference between the
contraction quantity due to bending of the large segment
331 and that of the small segment 332. Thus, the
contracted head 3a' (relatively displaced toward the legs)
can stay inside the head 3a, thereby improving the
electrical insulation between the small conductor segment
and large conductor segment.

Abstract: The invention relates to a nucleic acid analytical device, and a support,
and their use for sorting, isolating, sequencing, and manipulating nucleic
acids. Binary oligonucleotide arrays, having binary oligonucleotides
characterized by a constant nucleotide sequence adjacent to a variable
nucleotide sequence, are used for sorting and surveying nucleic acid strands.
Oligonucleotide arrays are used for sorting mixtures of nucleic acid strands,
making immobilized partial copies of nucleic strands, ligating strands, or
introducing site directed mutations into strands. Information is obtained for
determining the sequence of a nucleic acid strand, alone or in a mixture, by
generating partials of the strand and, for groups of partials having the same
terminal variable oligonucleotide, separately determining the presence and
sequence of all variable oligonucleotides. Arrays are also used to order
previously sequence nucleic acid fragments and to allocate ordered allelic
fragments to chromosomal linkage groups.

Abstract: To effectively prevent positional deviation of a battery.
A hook-shaped member (109) of a first electrode terminal (102), and
hook-shaped members (106,108) of a second spring electrode terminal (103,104) are arranged
in respective apices of a regular triangle to restrict movements
of a battery in a direction along a cross section against the
bias of a third spring electrode terminal (113), which abuts against a
surface (116), of negative polarity, of the battery. Battery abutments (111,105,107) are arranged
in respective apices of a substantially regular triangle to
permit the bias of the respective spring electrode terminals
to bias the battery toward the battery abutment, thus restricting
positional deviation of the battery in a horizontal plane. When
the battery is to be removed, a battery removal tool arranged
near the hook-shaped member is inserted into a tool insertion
portion to remove the battery.

Abstract: A method for treating a metal surface to microroughen the metal surface without forming
a reddish brown to black oxide film on the metal surface. Modified oxide replacement
compositions derived from oxide replacement compositions are prepared by altering the amount
of at least one component in the oxide replacement composition to a level above or below an
optimized amount of that component in the oxide replacement composition. The modified oxide
replacement composition is then used to microroughen a metal surface without the oxide film
forming on the metal. A temporary photoresist may be laminated on the treated metal surface
and portions of the photorcist developed and stripped from the metal without concern for resist
lock-in occurring.

Abstract: A vehicle front structure of the present
invention has a pair of side members (3,2) longitudinally
located on right and left sides of a vehicle, and a
pair of sub side members (7,6) juxtaposed to the respective
side members (3,2) and adapted to receive a impact load in
the event of a frontal collision after the side members (7,6)
receive the impact load. In this vehicle front
structure, the side members (7,6) first receive the impact
load and then the sub side members (7,6) juxtaposed to the
side members also receive the impact load after a
certain interval, in collaboration with the side
members (3,2). Therefore, vehicle deceleration increases in
two stages. Since the vehicle front structure has such
sub side members (7,6), the magnitude of deceleration in the
second stage upon collision can be made greater than
that in the first stage, and it becomes feasible to
make a decision on activation of occupant protection
