Abstract: A reclining device (A) for appropriately adjusting an inclination of a seat back with respect to a seat cushion includes a worm (4) rotatably mounted on the seat cushion, a helical gear (6) mounted on the seat back and held in engagement with the worm (4), and a lock cam (14) for locking the worm (4) and the helical gear (6) or releasing the lock of the worm (4) and the helical gear (6). Both the worm (4) and the helical gear (6) have a lead angle greater than a friction angle. A lock plate (16) having a locking protrusion (16a) formed therewith is interposed between the worm (4) and the lock cam (14). The lock cam (14) is operable to press the lock plate (16) against the worm (4) to engage the locking protrusion (16a) with a portion of the worm (4), thereby locking the worm (4) and the helical gear (6).

Abstract: A programmable logic integrated circuit device (10) has a plurality of regions (20) of programmable logic disposed on the device in a plurality of intersecting rows and columns of such regions. Interconnection resources (e.g., interconnection conductors, signal buffers/drivers, programmable connectors, etc.) are provided on the device for making programmable interconnections to, from and/or between the regions. At least some of these interconnection resources are provided in two forms that are architecturally similar (e.g., with similar and substantially parallel routing) but that have significantly different signal propagation speed characteristics. For example, a major or larger portion of such dual-form interconnection resources (200a, 210a, 230a) may have what may be termed normal signal speed, while a smaller minor portion (200b, 210b, 230b) may have significantly faster signal speed. Secondary (e.g., clock and clear) signal distribution may also be enhanced, and so may be input/output circuitry and cascade connections between adjacent or nearby logic modules on the device.

Abstract: Peptide ligands having affinity for IgG or for serum albumin are disclosed. Also disclosed are hybrid molecules comprising a peptide ligand domain and an active domain. The active domain may comprise any molecule having utility as a therapeutic or diagnostic agent. The hybrid molecules of the invention may be prepared using any of a number techniques including production in and purification from recombinant organisms transformed or transfected with an isolated nucleic acid encoding the hybrid molecule, or by chemical synthesis of the hybrid. The hybrid molecules have utility as agents to alter the elimination half-times of active domain molecules. Elimination half-time is altered by generating a hybrid molecule of the present invention wherein the peptide ligand has binding affinity for a plasma protein. In a preferred embodiment, a bioactive molecule having a short elimination half-time is incorporated as or into an active domain of the hybrid molecules of the invention, and the binding affinity of the peptide ligand domain prolongs the elimination half-time of the hybrid as compared to that of the bioactive molecule.

Abstract: Viewer individual attribute information indicating an attribute of a particular viewer such as an age, male or female, a resident district, a taste, an occupation and a life style is stored in a receiving terminal apparatus of the particular viewer. When a broadcasting program is transmitted from a service supply apparatus to the receiving terminal apparatus, service addition information indicating an attribute of the broadcasting program or an attribute condition required of viewers is transmitted to the receiving terminal apparatus with contents of the broadcasting program. In the receiving terminal apparatus, the service addition information is collated with the viewer individual attribute information of the particular viewer, and it is judged whether or not the broadcasting program is suitable for the particular viewer. In cases where the broadcasting program is suitable for the particular viewer, the broadcasting program is received by the receiving terminal apparatus and is reproduced and displayed. Therefore, the broadcasting program can be received by only a group of particular viewers desired on a side of the service supply apparatus even though the group of particular viewers is not specified.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a board connector for electrically connecting together circuit boards which are incorporated in, for example, a mobile telephone. A dustproof measure is carried out by swingably attaching a cover member 5A to a plug 3A via a fulcrum shaft 32, and covering contact portions of the plug 3A and socket 4A in a fitting state with the cover member 5A. In one of the plug 3A and the cover member 5A, a protrusion 54 which causes an end portion to continuously butt against another one of the plug and the cover member from one end to another end is disposed, whereby, when the plug is inserted, the force of inserting the plug is evenly transmitted from the cover member 5A to the whole plug 3A. Joining portions 46, 56 which, when the plug 3A and the socket 4A are fitted to each other, are joined to each other in a front side with respect to the fulcrum shaft 32 are disposed in the socket 4A and the cover member 5A. The plug 3A is pulled up with using the cover member 5A as a lever by swinging the cover member 5A with setting the joining portions 46, 56 as a lever fulcrum.

Abstract: The invention relates to the determination of the clinical state of a subject. In order to bring about an uncomplicated method for monitoring the clinical state of a subject and for accomplishing a diagnostic scale, such as a nociception scale, on which a certain reading corresponds to the same level for all patients, a normalization transform is applied to a measurement signal containing physiological data obtained from a patient, whereby a normalized measurement signal having a predetermined value range is obtained. The normalization transform is dependent on predetermined history data, such as previous signal data of said measurement signal. A diagnostic index dependent on the normalized measurement signal is then formed, the diagnostic index serving as a measure of the clinical state of the patient. The diagnostic index may be formed based on one or more normalized measurement signals.

Abstract: A technique is disclosed for restoring data of sparse volumes, where one or more block pointers within the file system structure are marked as ABSENT, and fetching the appropriate data from an alternate location on demand. Client data access requests to the local storage system initiate a restoration of the data from a backing store as required. A demand generator can also be used to restore the data as a background process by walking through the sparse volume and restoring the data of absent blocks. A pump module is also disclosed to regulate the access of the demand generator. Once all the data has been restored, the volume contains all data locally, and is no longer a sparse volume.
