Abstract: This application relates to a self-reference point setting type blood component measuring method and apparatus using light. In one aspect, the method includes applying light to a skin of a subject to be measured and setting a reference point on a surface of the skin adjacent to a point at which the light is applied. The method further includes calculating a concentration of a blood component from a light intensity measured at the reference point and a light intensity measured at another point. According to some embodiments, the accuracy and precision of measurement are increased in measuring blood in a non-invasive manner.

Abstract: A multi-position seat configured to maximize usability thereof through various changes in the positions of a seat back and a seat cushion may include a height assembly configured to move a base frame mounted on a vehicle body, a slide assembly configured to move a seat cushion frame, which is positioned above the base frame and is connected to the base frame via a link mechanism, upwards and downwards by sliding action of the link mechanism in a forward and backward direction, a tilt assembly configured to move a rear end portion of the seat cushion frame upwards and downwards, and a seat back frame hingedly coupled to a rear end portion of the base frame to be reclined.

Abstract: A backboard assembly for a vehicular rear seat is disclosed. The backboard assembly includes an upper part and a lower part, which are made of a hard plastic material. The backboard assembly prevents the formation of a gap between the lower part and a luggage board, regardless of the operational mode of the rear seat. When a seat back is folded, the upper part, the lower part, and the luggage board are aligned in a horizontal direction, thereby allowing the space for passengers in the rear seat to be completely integrated with a luggage compartment.

Abstract: A blow-off valve for a turbo blower 1000 has a body part 100 which includes a cylinder part 110, a valve-guide plate 130 on the cylinder part 110 and a head part 150 covering the valve-guide plate 130. In the cylinder part 110, a blow-connection opening 1038 connected with a blow opening 2500 of the turbo blower 2000 and a blow-off opening 1058 to blow off the emission air from the turbo blower 2000. A spool valve 300 is provided and a blow-pressure spool 380 is located at space connected with the blow-connection opening 1038 and a blow-pressure opposing spool 330 is located between the valve-guide plate 130 and the head part 150 and a stem of the spool valve penetrates the valve-guide plate 130 and is supported thereby. A three-way solenoid valve 20 is mounted on the head part 150.
