Abstract: In an engine room, heat insulators are provided on the rear side in the forth and back direction of a vehicle with respect to an engine and on the front side in the forth and back direction of the vehicle with respect to a dash panel arranged on a back side of the vehicle with respect to the engine. A top flange portion is formed at a top of a first heat insulator. The top flange portion is extending in a direction obliquely upward and backward of the vehicle to guide air heated by an exhaust system from the engine in an upward direction of the vehicle. A top bent portion is formed at a top of a second heat insulator such that the top bent portion is arranged in the vicinity of the cowling panel in order to guide the heated air in an upward direction of the vehicle.

Abstract: A banknote handling device improves banknote delivery efficiency, by reading serial numbers on banknotes. The banknote handling device comprises: a banknote deposit/withdrawal unit for receiving and delivering banknotes from and to a user; the banknote discrimination unit that discriminates banknotes and is capable of reading banknote serial numbers; a control unit that controls the banknote deposit/withdrawal unit, the banknote discrimination unit, and the banknote storage unit. The control unit controls the banknote deposit/withdrawal unit, the banknote discrimination unit, and the banknote storage unit such that, if a deposit transaction with a user fails after banknotes have been deposited, banknotes having the same serial numbers as the serial numbers read by the banknote discrimination unit are fetched from the banknote storage unit and delivered to the banknote deposit/withdrawal unit.

Abstract: A distributed amplifier with a simple structure that permits miniaturization of circuit in which the input-side transmission line of the distributed amplifier is constituted by a coplanar line having a signal line and a ground face formed on the upper face of a dielectric substrate and the output-side transmission line of the distributed amplifier is constituted by a microstrip line having a signal line formed on the upper face of the dielectric substrate and a ground face formed on the lower face of the dielectric substrate. In addition, a plurality of amplification transistors is formed on the upper face of the dielectric substrate and each of the electrodes is connected to the signal line or the ground face that is formed on the upper face of the dielectric substrate. Because a large transistor-drive current does not flow to the input-side transmission line, the signal line can be made narrow and there is no increase in the required surface area even in the case of a coplanar line.

For that reason, the game processing apparatus of the present invention processes games on the basis of players' operating signals, and is equipped with processing circuits (10), which process the above-mentioned games on the basis of operating signals supplied from input devices (2b) operated by the players, and which generate the image data for these games. When an operating signal equivalent to a player's victory declaration is input from an input device (2b), the processing circuits (10) process subsequent operating signals input by the player as invalid signals until a prescribed condition is achieved.

Abstract: A connector inspection apparatus is provided for inspection of a connector having a terminal receiving portion provided with cavities in which terminals are inserted, and a retainer attached to the terminal receiving portion. The connector inspection apparatus includes a holder for holding the connector during inspection, an inspection unit, and a lever for moving the inspection unit forward and rearward with respect to the holder. When the inspection unit is moved forwardly by the lever, a retainer position inspection piece provided in the inspection unit assumes either a forward movable condition or a rearward movable condition dependent upon whether the retainer is in a proper locked condition within the connector. When the retainer position inspection piece is in the backward movable condition, an electrical detection device detects the condition of the retainer.
