Abstract: To achieve this, a V-belt-type automatic transmission for a vehicle is provided
with a drive pulley 38 and a driven pulley 48, wherein a plurality of centrifugal weights 42 and
43 arranged between a movable pulley piece 40 of a drive pulley 38 and a cam plate 41 are
moved in a radial direction by the centrifugal force, the wrapping radius of the V-belt 67 wound
around the drive pulley 38 and the driven pulley 48 is changed, a maximum gear ratio in a low-speed
rotation range and a minimum gear ratio in a high-speed rotation range are set, the
movement in a radial direction of the centrifugal weight 43, one of the plurality of centrifugal
weights 42 and 43, is actually prevented by the stopper surface 40h at the rotational speed in a
middle-speed rotation range, and the middle gear ratio is set. The centrifugal weight 43 is made
lighter than the remaining centrifugal weight 42, and the stopper surface 40h is sloped, and
therefore a pressing force pressing the centrifugal weight 43 against cam plate 41 will be
generated.

Abstract: A stacked liquid cell, such as a stacked liquid crystal cell, comprises a stack of liquid layers and substrate layers between which the liquid layers are dispersed. The stack comprises a liquid and polymeric substrate layers made from a stratified-phase-separated composite. Being part of a stratified-phase-separated composite, in particular one manufactured in accordance with a single-substrate method, the polymeric layer may have a relative small thickness compared a conventional substrate layer which results in a stacked liquid cell having a reduced thickness or, more particular, a stacked liquid cell having a reduced thickness between subjacent liquid layers giving a reduction in parallax effects. A method of manufacturing a liquid cell involves stratifying, on a substrate, a layer of stratified-phase-separable composition into a liquid layer and a polymeric layer to form a stratified-phase-separated composite, the polymeric layer serving as one of the substrate of the liquid cell.

Abstract: An open-loop cashless gaming system and method employ a portable smart
data medium and a gaming machine. The smart data medium is inherently more
secure and less susceptible to fraud than other mediums of exchange. The smart data
medium is embedded with a microcontroller having a memory storing first monetary
data. The gaming machine includes a visual display, a credit meter, and a receptacle
for receiving the smart data medium. To start playing a game of chance on the visual
display, a player inserts the smart data medium into the receptacle. The first
monetary data is transferred to the gaming machine and, if the monetary data is a
currency amount, converted to a first number of credits that are added to the credit
meter. With credits on the credit meter, the player can place wagers and play one or
more cycles of the game of chance. Unless the player exhausts all of his or her
credits, a second number of credits remain on the credit meter after the game of
chance has been played. In response to the player activating a "collect" switch on the
gaming machine, the second number of credits are converted to a currency amount (if
the monetary data is a currency amount) and transferred to the memory of the smart
data medium. The cashless gaming system and method are open-loop in that the
credit-in and credit-out transactions are performed by the gaming machine without
communicating with any remote computer linked to the machine.

Abstract: Electronic clock calibration systems, methods, and computer program products use a calibration reference signal to calibrate an electronic clock that generates an output signal and that is responsive to a base reference signal. The base reference signal is less accurate than the calibration reference signal and, therefore, has an actual frequency and an ideal frequency associated therewith. The difference between the actual frequency and the ideal frequency represents the inaccuracy of the base reference signal. The calibration reference signal may be used to determine this difference between the actual frequency and ideal frequency of the base reference signal. Once this difference is determined, the frequency of the electronic clock output signal may be adjusted to compensate for the inaccuracy of the base reference signal. The base reference signal is often generated by a crystal oscillator circuit in consumer electronic devices, which is susceptible to frequency drift based on age, temperature, shock, and other environmental factors. Crystal oscillator circuits have an advantage in that they use relatively little power and, thus, tend to preserve battery life. The accuracy of a crystal oscillator circuit may be improved through use of a more accurate calibration reference signal that need not be available continuously.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une technique permettant d'analyser des interactions de protéines dans des cellules vivantes. Cette technique utilise la mesure de distribution cellulaire d'un composant détectable de façon à indiquer la présence ou l'absence d'une interaction entre ce composant et un deuxième composant étudié. Cette technique se fonde sur la connaissance du fait que certains composants peuvent être stimulés pour se redistribuer dans la cellule à des localisation définies. Des système de redistribution inductibles permettent de déterminer si des interactions spécifiques surviennent entre composants. Cette invention concerne aussi des systèmes inductibles dans lesquels on démontre que les stimuli de redistribution sont sensiblement «nuls», en ce sens qu'ils n'affectent aucun autre système dans la cellule durant la période d'analyse, sinon le composant dont la redistribution peut être induite. Cette invention concerne aussi un tampon d'extraction qui convient pour le criblage à haut rendement des médicaments qui ont une action sur la distribution intracellulaire des composants intracellulaires. Ce tampon d'extraction comprend un agent de fixation cellulaire et un agent de perméabilisation cellulaire. Cette invention concerne enfin l'optimisation de la composition du tampon d'extraction et son application à divers types de cellule.
