Abstract: A suspension member is fixed to a front part of a vehicle body from below. A stabilizer is fixedly held on an upper surface of the suspension member. The stabilizer has bent portions. At the time of a front end collision of the vehicle, a rear part of the suspension member separates from the vehicle body for rearward movement of the suspension member relative to the vehicle body to allow the bent portions to come into engagement with the vehicle body.

Abstract: An oxygen sensor for determining the partial pressure of oxygen in a monitored gas environment includes a diffusion housing of zirconia based material having a gas diffusion aperture, an oxygen ion conductive plate of zirconia based material, a pair of electrode layers mounted on opposite sides of the conductive plate, and a sealing glass material sealingly bonding the conductive plate at one side to the housing to provide a diffusion chamber defined by the diffusion housing and the conductive plate. The electrodes are connectable to a power source for being supplied with an electric potential to pump oxygen ion out of the diffusion chamber through the conductive plate to flow a current through the electrodes which current is indicative of the partial pressure of the oxygen in the monitored gas environment. The sealing glass material contains SiO.sub.2, BaO, Na.sub.2 O and ZrO.sub.2.

Abstract: A plethysmograph is provided with a sensor for detecting an increase or decrease in the blood volume of a vascular bed, preferably by photoelectrically detecting blood content in a finger-apex position. The detection signals derived from the sensor are twice or triply differentiated to produce an acceleration curve indicative of blood circulation whose interpretation effectively leads to a diagnosis of the entire circulatory system including early signs of malfunction. Detection of the presymptoms of arteriosclerosis, myocardial infarction, cerebral apoplexy, subarachnoidal hemorrhage, etc. is possible and the apparatus may be used to monitor the patient's condition during subsequent treatment. A visual or printed card of the diagnostic results can be provided.

Abstract: A MOS integrated circuit including P-channel MOS transistors, particularly for C-MOS inverter, in which the P-channel MOS transistor (12) has P.sup.+ drain (34), P.sup.+ source (36) connected to a +VDD circuit (42) via P.sup.+ and N.sup.+ diffusion layers (36.sub.1, 36.sub.2) and isolation gate (38). The P.sup.+ layer is partly replaced by, i.e. parallel- and/or serial-connected to the N.sup.+ layer so that an effective source diffusion resistance (R.sub.S) or the conductive resistance (R.sub.0) is lowered.
