Abstract: A packaged solid-state battery that includes a solid-state battery having a top surface, a bottom surface, and side surfaces connecting the top surface to the bottom surface; a supporting substrate supporting the bottom surface of the solid-state battery; an insulating cover layer covering at least the top surface and the side surfaces of the solid-state battery; and an inorganic cover film on the insulating cover layer.

Abstract: A solid state battery that includes: a battery element including a positive electrode layer, a negative electrode layer, and a solid electrolyte layer interposed between the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer; a composite protective layer covering the battery element, wherein the composite protective layer includes a first protective layer and a second protective layer arranged around the battery element so as to have an overlapping region where the first protective layer and the second protective layer overlap each other; and a conducting part capable of extracting electricity from the battery element to an outside of the solid state battery, the conducting part extending from the overlapping region to the outside of the solid state battery.

Abstract: A magnetic recording apparatus for electrocardiographs wherein an input signal is converted into a digital signal, such digital signal is accumulated and intermittently recorded, thereby enabling electric power consumption to be reduced and efficiency of use to be improved. Parallel memories are used to store the digital signal at a first rate and the digital signal is read from the memories at a second rate higher than the first rate.

Abstract: This invention relates to an apparatus for automatically supplying and selectively reproducing a tape cassette having a plurality of cassette accommodating racks into which a plurality of tape cassettes are accommodated, a plurality of reproducing apparatus for reproducing the plurality of tape cassettes, a tape cassette transporting apparatus for transporting the plurality of tape cassettes from the tape cassette accommodating racks to the plurality of reproducing apparatus and for transporting the plurality of tape cassettes from the plurality of reproducing apparatus to the tape cassette accommodating racks and a control apparatus for controlling at least a sequential order of reproducing the plurality of tape cassettes and a sequential order of a playback mode operation of the plurality of reproducing apparatus.

Abstract: An interactive audio-visual teaching apparatus includes a video tape player, a video monitor, a student keyboard, a printer, and a programmed teaching controller, which can include a microprocessor. Teaching programs recorded on video tape include a plurality of lesson segments. A program control information code group is contained within the audio track of the tape in advance of the first program and indicates the position of the top of each program and the end of the last program. Segment control information code groups, recorded in the audio track respectively at the onset of each program, contain segment location data, correct answer data, branch instruction data, and the like for the segments of the respective program. A temporary memory, e.g., a RAM, is provided with the program and segment data, and a permanent memory, e.g., a ROM, contains universal software which is used with any previously prepared teaching-program tapes.
