Abstract: The present invention provides a navigation switch
apparatus with simple construction capable of operating in
eight directions in total including longitudinal, lateral
and diagonal directions. The navigation switch apparatus
has a printed circuit board (1) provided thereon four
conductors (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) shaped a circle with small
spaces (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d) between each pair of four
conductors so that whole the conductors are shaped a
doughnut-like. Further, a cap-shaped body (5) arranged
opposite to the printed circuit board (1) is provided with
short-circuiters (6a, 6b, 6c, 6d) capable of making contact
with the respective four conductors (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) when a
navigation lever (11) is operated in the longitudinal,
lateral and diagonal directions. Each conductor is formed
with two opposed comb-shaped conductive layers (4a, 4b)
such that the central portion of the one conductive layer
is in a diametrically directed comparatively-coarse comb
shape, whereas both the end portions of the other
conductive layer are in a circumferentially directed
comparatively-fine comb shape, and the cap-shaped body (5)
has a thin-walled portion on its outer periphery. Thick-walled
portions (8a, 8b, 8c, 8d, 8e, 8f, 8g, 8h) extending
in the longitudinal, lateral and diagonal directions, thus
forming a substantially regular octagon as a whole, are
formed in the vicinity of the thin-walled portion.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, une valeur de synchronisation d'allumage du moteur à combustion interne est calculée au moyen de termes de correction, y compris un premier terme de correction calculé en fonction d'une variable commandée sans réfléchir une valeur souhaitée et un second terme de correction calculé en fonction d'une différence entre la variable commandée et la valeur souhaitée. Le premier terme de correction peut être calculé à partir de la variable commandée sans influer sur la valeur souhaitée. De ce fait, un changement soudain ne se produit pas dans la variable commandée de rétroaction, même dans une situation, où la différence entre la variable commandée et la valeur souhaitée se modifie graduellement. En outre, le premier terme de correction est un terme proportionnel (51) et le second terme de correction est un terme entier (55). La variable commandée est une vitesse rotative du moteur à combustion interne (NE) qui est détectée par un détecteur conçu pour déceler la vitesse rotative du moteur.

Abstract: Dendrimer conjugates are presented, which are formed between a dendrimer and a protein solubilising substance. Such dendrimer conjugates ar effective in the treatment of protein aggregate-related diseases (e.g. prion-related diseases). The protein solubilising substance and the dendrimer together show a protein aggregate solubilising effect higher than a physical mixture of the dendrimer and the protein solubilising substance (i.e. a synergistic effect). Such dendrimer conjugates are useful in the treatment or prevention of protein aggregate-relates diseases, in disinfection/decontamination processes and in classifying or identifying protein aggregates.
