Abstract: Disclosed is a supersonic beauty treatment device capable of effecting a beauty treatment for the skin and of slimming a selected portion of the body. A face beauty treatment head 2 and body beauty treatment head 3 are prepared, and either one is selectively attached to the casing 1 of the device. The casing 1 has a tapped receptacle 11 made on its front. Each head 2 or 3 has a plug 21 or 31 projecting from its base.  The plug 21 or 31 has threads formed on its outer circumference. Thus, the head 2 or 3 can be attached to the casing 1 by screwing the plug 21 or 31 in the receptacle 11. A  contact 12 is formed at the center of the insulating bottom of the receptacle 11, and two sets of switch contacts 13a and 13b are formed on both sides of the center of the insulating bottom of the receptacle 11. The electrically conductive inner circumference wall of the receptacle 11 is grounded. The plug 21 or 31 has a contact formed at its center, corresponding to the center contact 12 of the receptacle 11. The plug 21 has an electrically conductive key 23a formed on its base, corresponding to the set of switch contacts 13a whereas the plug 31 has an electrically conductive key 33b formed on its base, corresponding to the set of switch contacts 13b.

Abstract: L'invention concerne la détermination d'aberrations d'ordre supérieur d'un élément optique sur une zone optique qui est plus importante que la zone mesurée généralement limitée, sur laquelle sont mesurées les aberrations. Cette détermination est réalisée par des appareils, des systèmes et des procédés selon lesquels les données Zernike, de préférence, provenant d'une mesure d'aberration sont adaptées à une fonction conique. Cette fonction conique augmente ou diminue doucement et continuellement entre la zone mesurée et la zone optique, ce qui permet de déterminer précisément, avec les données extrapolées, les aberrations sur la zone optique. Selon cette invention, une pluralité de sections de pistons positives coniques indépendantes variant au niveau de l'azimut peut décrire avec une très grande précision une aberration de front d'ondes composée d'une défocalisation, d'un astigmatisme, d'une aberration sphérique, d'un astigmatisme secondaire, et d'un tetrafoil. La description d'une coma primaire et du trèfle n'est pas aussi bonne, parce qu'ils varient avec le troisième ordre du composant radial. Toutefois, l'erreur de description est relativement petite. Un terme incliné peut être ajouté pour rendre compte du composant incliné de la coma et des termes du trèfle.

Abstract: A device, record carrier (11) and method for recording information on a track (9) of the record carrier (11) is described. The record carrier (11) contains a disc information area with information about the record carrier (11), such as for example a write strategy for that record carrier (11). The device has disc information reading means (35) for reading the disc information area. The disc information area further contains extended information blocks. The extended information block have a block version number and additional parameters. The block version number defines how the additional parameters are to be interpreted. In this manner a more flexible backwards compatibility system is realized. Drives which are able to interpret the additional parameters of an extended information block can chose to use the additional parameters in that block. Older drives use other blocks or fall back to the first basic part of the disc information area.

Abstract: A sheet-shaped sensor body includes a first protective layer formed of a resist paste layer, an antenna film formed of a PET film, a first conductive layer formed of a silver layer, a second conductive layer formed of a carbon layer, a second protective layer formed of a resist paste layer and a hot-melt film, which are laminated one on another in sequence. When the hot-melt film of the sensor body is brought into abutment against a front surface of a wadding previously adhered to a pad of a seat back and is then heat-pressed, the sensor body is fixed firmly and reliably to the wadding by an adhesive force generated by the melted hot-melt film once it again cools and solidified. Thus, the sensor of an occupant detecting system for detecting the physical constitution and the attitude of an occupant sitting on a seat can be fixed easily and reliably to the seat back.

Abstract: A papermaker's fabric, usable in the forming section of a paper machine, having two layers of cross-machine-direction (CD) yarns. Interwoven with the CD yarns is a system of MD yarns. The MD yarns are grouped into alternating pairs comprising a crossing pair having a first MD yarn and a second MD yarn and a second pair having a third MD yarn and a fourth MD yarn. The first MD yarn and the second MD yarn combine to weave each CD yarn in the first layer and cross between the first layer and the second layer. The left and right warp yarns in the pairs are aligned in such a way that like adjacent yarns from adjacent pairs have MD cell lengths equal to or less than the MD cell lengths from non-like adjacent yarns from adjacent pairs. The third MD yarn is interwoven with the first layer of CD yarns and the fourth MD yarn is interwoven with the second layer of CD yarns. In this manner, a paired warped triple layer forming fabric may be produced which minimizes drainage and crossover point topographical markings.

Abstract: Methods and Systems for managing one or more communications devices associated with a user of a communications network (110) are disclosed. The methods and systems are capable of receiving an indication regarding wireless communications between a first device (112) and a second device (114, 116, 118). This indication may indicate that the first device (112) has entered or left a vicinity (or range) of a second device (114, 116, 118). Additionally, this may be accomplished by using a protocol such as Bluetooth protocol, the IEEE 802.11 (b) protocol, and/or the IEEE 802.11(g) protocol. For example if a first device (112) enters the vicinity of a second device (114, 116, 118), calls for the user may be automatically forwarded to a phone of the user that is located near the second device (114, 116, 118). Likewise, in an embodiment, if the first device (112) leaves the vicinity of the second device (114, 116, 118), calls may be automatically forwarded to the first device (112).

Abstract: An exercise apparatus having a pair of support pedals that, when a user steps upon both pedals, can be moved by the user in a closed path that is designed to be complimentary in motion to that of the user's natural stride. The pedals are operably connected by a linkage that facilitates this natural motion. Moreover, this linkage can be adjusted thereby altering the shape of the closed path traveled by the pedals. The closed path can thus be altered to conform to the optimal biomechanics of each individual user or, it can be altered to form a closed path designed for more of a striding type of exercise or for more of a climbing exercise, thereby allowing different muscle groups to be exercised on the same machine.
