Abstract: The present invention relates to a DNA polymerase
possesses the properties of 1) exhibiting higher
polymerase activity when assayed by using as a substrate a
complex resulting from primer annealing to a single
stranded template DNA, as compared to the case where an
activated DNA is used as a substrate; 2) possessing a
3'→5' exonuclease activity; 3) being capable of amplifying
a DNA fragment of about 20 kbp, in the case where
polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is carried out using λ-DNA
as a template. It also relates to a DNA polymerase-constituting
protein; a DNA containing the base sequence
encoding thereof; and a method for producing the DNA
polymerase. The present invention provides a novel DNA
polymerase possessing both a high primer extensibility and
a 3'→5' exonuclease activity.

Abstract: Connection of rails (11, 11, 15, 15) or manufacturing of
yoke members can be facilitated and necessity of a special
bending device can be eliminated by configuring end yoke
members (21) and intermediate yoke members (20) to have the
same planar plate form. Welding lines can be shortened and
the rails (11, 15) can be connected speedily by welding
predetermined locations of the yoke members (20, 21) to
predetermined surfaces of the rails (11 and 15). By
interposing intermediate members (24) filling welding margins
(L) at a stage to couple the end yoke members (21) with each
other by way of coupling implements (26), coupling forces are
directed to act on the intermediate members (24) and not to
act between end surfaces (11b, 11b) of the rails or between
end yoke members which are liable to be deformed.

Abstract: An interpolation circuit of an encoder of which dynamic accuracy is improved is disclosed. The phase angle data detecting circuit 1 detects to store the phase angle data PH for each of the first clock CK1. The phase angle data PH is input to the updating circuit 2 in which the current data CNT is subtracted from the subsequent phase angle data PH so as to be updated. The differential data DX is limited within an upper limit to be added to the current data CNT. The integrating circuit 3 integrates the differential data DELTA1, whose upper limit is predetermined, by the second clock CK2 to generate the carry signal QUADEN at each timing when the integrated value leads to the period ratio of CK1 to CK2. The two-phase square wave generating circuit 5 generates two-phase square wave signals at each timing of the carry signal QUADEN. The over-speed detecting circuit 6 monitors the differential data DX to generate the over-speed alarm signal OSALM under a predetermined condition.

Abstract: A method and a system for reducing mechanical disturbances from
energy storage flywheels in an electrically-powered vehicle are provided. The
system includes at least two counter-rotating energy storage flywheels (32)
arranged on the vehicle; vehicle dynamics, control, and sensors for sensing
a disturbance to the vehicle and providing an output indicative of the
disturbance. The system also provides for adjustably controlling an attitude
of the vehicle in response to the output of the sensors and to counteract
disturbances resulting from the at least two counter-rotating energy storage
flywheels (32). A method for reducing mechanical disturbances from energy
storage flywheels arranged in an electrically powered vehicle is also provided.
The method has the steps of: sensing a torque on the vehicle to provide a
torque measurement; processing the torque measurement to produce a control
signal based upon the sensed torque; and modifying a relative speed or
orientation of the energy storage flywheels by using the control signal to
reduce a net torque produced by the flywheels. A flywheel-powered electric
vehicle system is also provided. The system includes an electrical power
subsystem arranged on a vehicle structure; a pair of counter-rotating energy
storage flywheels (32) mounted to a flywheel mounting plate, the pair of flywheels
connected to the electrical power subsystem. Torque sensors are arranged
between the flywheel mounting plate and the vehicle structure for sensing a
net torque on the vehicle resulting from the pair of flywheels and generating
a torque signal indicative thereof. A vehicle attitude sensor is arranged on the
vehicle structure to produce an attitude signal. A vehicle attitude actuator and
electronic processing equipment are arranged on the vehicle structure and
connected to the pair of counter-rotating energy storage flywheels, the torque
sensors, the vehicle attitude sensor, the vehicle attitude actuator, and the
electrical power subsystem. The electronic processing equipment processes
the attitude signal and the torque signal to provide a control signal to the
vehicle attitude actuator for reducing the net torque on the vehicle.

Abstract: The defibrillator-pacemaker device includes a high energy pulse generator and a module which monitors the ventricular and auricular activity of the heart. An electronic processing module processes the data to identify and classify tachycardia events. A diagnostic algorithm is used to identify these events. The algorithm uses a number of criteria such as: ventricular frequency, stability of ventricular intervals (RR). The algorithm also uses an additional criterion which searches for intervals RR short and/or long which have been significantly lengthened in a given zone of stability (RRmax-RRmin). The processing module compares the number of auricular events with the number of ventricular events.
