Inventor: SUGIYAMA YUTA
IPC: G02B23/24
Filed: 2012-02-21
Abstract: An endoscope includes an input amount detector which is configured to detect, as a bending operation input amount, the bending operation input, a first bending drive mechanism which is configured to bend a first bending portion to a bending amount corresponding to the bending operation input amount, a bending amount calculator which is configured to calculate a bending amount of the first bending portion, a second bending drive mechanism which is configured to bend the second bending portion, a driving portion which is configured to generate driving force to drive the second bending drive mechanism, a setting portion which is configured to set a first threshold stored in advance and compared with the bending amount of the first bending portion, a determination portion which is configured to determine whether the bending amount of the first bending portion is more than the first threshold, and a controller which is configured to continuously output, to the driving portion, a bending drive signal that drives the second bending drive mechanism to bend the second bending portion in the same direction as the bending direction of the first bending portion when the determination portion determines that the bending amount of the first bending portion is more than the first threshold.

Title: Device for connecting the ends of a separable zipper.
Inventor: FRIEDBERG MARTIN F
IPC: A44B19/36
Filed: 1979-11-19
Abstract: An improved device for connecting the ends of a separable zipper having opposed strings or rows of interlocking teeth or elements including specially adapted terminals which facilitate the engagement of the ends of the zipper and initial movement of a slider to fasten the zipper teeth. The terminals are engagable by being brought together in a direction substantially perpendicular to the zipper rows. Compared to the conventional pin-and-socket terminal arrangement wherein the pin must be threaded through one relatively small port of the slider and then into the socket, the terminals are relatively large and essentially self-aligning during engagement. Once engaged, the terminals are free to rotate relative to each other, thus permitting the opposed rows of zipper elements to self-align as the slider is urged forward to engage the rearmost ends of the zipper elements.

Title: Electroless copper deposition solutions.
Inventor: FERRIER DONALD R
IPC: H05K3/18
Filed: 1981-12-21
Abstract: Suitably complexed cupric solutions can deposit conductive copper films electrolessly on properly catalyzed non-conductive substrates, at plating bath pH values in the range of about 2.0 to 3.5, using a non-formaldehyde reducer such as hypophosphite. Certain conditions are critical to successful results: (1) ability of the complexer selected to chelate copper at pH values of 2.0 to 3.5 at elevated temperatures (140<o> to 160<o>F); (2) avoidance of certain anions, such as halides and acetates, in significant concentrations in the plating solution; and (3) provision of an "active" catalytic surface on the non-conductive substrate.

Title: Fitting system for a sport shoe.
Inventor: SPADEMAN RICHARD G
IPC: A43C11/16
Filed: 1982-01-21
Abstract: A sport shoe such as a ski boot (700) which has a relatively rigid lower shell (702) and a cuff (701) defined by overlapping flaps that can be drawn together over the wearer's lower leg. Inside the boot is a movable foot bed (712) the aft end of which is connected to a cable (708) that is routed through openings in the boot and over guides (719) (720) about the exterior of the flaps to a buckle (722). By closing the buckle, the foot bed is raised and presses the foot against the boot for a uniform fit and, simultaneously therewith, the cuff and flaps are tightened over the leg. The cable (708) is routed and arranged so that in response to a relative forward movement of the cuff (710) the fit established by the foot bed and the flaps is temporarily tightened until the cuff returns to its normal position. A strap (811) can be mounted interiorly of the boot so that it engages the instep of the foot when the movable foot bed is raised.

Title: Improved tobacco filter.
Inventor: BERGER RICHARD M
IPC: A24D3/04
Filed: 1983-06-28
Abstract: Self-sustaining, dimensionally stable, axially elongated fibrous bodies (14) of suitable cross-sectional size and shape for use as cigarette filters are produced from a bondable continuous filamentary tow of substantially continuous thermoplastic fibers. The fibers within the filter body are oriented in an adjacent and overlapping relation to one another in generally successive layers extending generally transverse to the longitudinal axis of the filter. During fabrication the filter is passed through a cooling station (80 and 88) of reduced cross-section so that the radially peripheral edges of the fibers are bent backward and overlap to form a smooth peripheral surface to which tip-wrap material can readily adhere without the need for a plug wrap or for coating the filter.

The obtained conjugate fibers have a double refraction ratio of 90 x 10-3 to 195 x 10-3 and show, when three-dimensionally crimped, an elongation falling within the following range in the lengthwise and crosswise directions: 9 ((L2-L1)/L1) x 100 160, wherein L1 represents a vertical length of a 5-cm wide test sample with a given length when a 5-g load is imposed thereon, and L2 represents a vertical length of said sample when a given load - 240 g in case of non-woven fabric and 1500 g in case of woven or knitted fabric - is imposed thereon. The stretchable cloth of the specific conjugate fibers showing an elongation of 9 % or more in both the directions has a good hand, and shows excellent dyeability and heat-setting properties, thus being extremely effectively used as both clothing and industrial materials.
