Abstract: An opening/closing apparatus including a trapping detection structure which reliably implements detection of trapping of foreign objects, even at a structure at which an outer peripheral edge of a moving body or an inner peripheral edge of an opening includes corner portions with small radii of curvature. A pressure sensor which detects external forces from directions intersecting a length direction thereof is provided at an outer periphery portion of a back door. However, at a corner portion, at a lower end portion of a door side portion or the like, the pressure sensor is provided with a large curvature such that the pressure sensor keeps distant from the corner portion. In place thereof, another pressure sensor, with a facing pair of electrode sheets, is provided along the corner portion. When one or more of these pressure sensors detects an external force, the back door is moved for opening.

Abstract: A switch device includes (a) a switch arranged on a bottom of a recess, and (b) a waterproof sheet adhered at its outer edge to a wall defining the recess, at a certain height to entirely cover the recess therewith. The waterproof sheet has a first area greater than a cross-sectional area of the recess when the waterproof sheet is in its original planar form. A difference between the first area of the waterproof sheet and the cross-sectional area of the recess allows the switch to be actuated through the waterproof sheet, and disallows moisture to enter the recess through the waterproof sheet. The waterproof sheet is composed of transparent or semi-transparent resin, for instance. The waterproof sheet may be adhered at its outer edge to a summit or a bottom of the wall.

Abstract: The present invention is characterized in that, in a powder magnetic core obtained by compaction of an iron-based magnetic powder covered with an insulation film, a saturation magnetization Ms is Ms≧1.9 T in a 1.6 MA/m magnetic field; a specific resistance &rgr; is &rgr;≧1.5 &mgr;&OHgr;m; a magnetic flux density B2k is B2k≧1.1 T in a 2 kA/m magnetic field; and a magnetic flux density B10k is B10k≧1.6 T in a 10 kA/m magnetic field. In accordance with the present invention, it has been possible to industrially carry out compacting iron-based magnetic powders under remarkably high compacting pressures. As a result, high-performance powder magnetic cores are obtained which have a high density, and which are good in terms of the specific resistance and magnetic permeability.

Abstract: An insulation film whose requisite constituent elements are first elements and a second element. The first elements include B, P, O and Fe. The second element can generate cations whose hexa-coordinated ion radius, defined by Shannon, R. D., is 0.073 nm or more, and which are bivalent or more. Since the second element having a large ion radius is incorporated into network formers made from the first elements, it is possible to improve the heat resistance of the insulation film.

Abstract: In a digital communication system for modulating a voice code data by means of a QPSK system, and conducting radio communication, when a data error is detected in a base band processing section 2, an error symbol detecting section 5 identifies an error symbol having minimum unit length, and a conversion data determination processing section 6 selects a symbol data having the second-closest phase from the phase content of the symbol, and conducts data conversion in a voice code data conversion section 7. Thereby, it becomes a data approximate to a normal data with a high possibility, and the deterioration of voice quality when an error occurs is suppressed to a minimum.

Abstract: A voice-coded data error processing system includes a demodulator, an error frame detection section, an error data identification section, a partial conversion section, and a decoder. The demodulator demodulates a received transmission frame containing voice-coded data which is encoded by ADPCM (Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation) and modulated based on QPSK (Quadrature Phase Shift Keying). The error frame detection section detects an error in the transmission frame from CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) information contained in the voice-coded data output from the demodulator. The error data identification section identifies voice-coded data corresponding to an error portion when the error frame detection section detects an error frame. The partial conversion section converts only the voice-coded data corresponding to the error portion from the demodulator on the basis of an output from the error data identification section.

A conductive connection member is connected to the terminal pin so that it can be electrically connected to the wire. The terminal pin has a diameter on an open side thereof which is formed larger than that on a root side form which the conductive connection member is drawn out. The pin is formed as a contact section with which the conductive connection member makes contact when it is pulled in a projection direction of the terminal pin.

ADPCM data without error are decoded as it is.
