The compound ASnO.sub.3-.delta. is prepared by reacting an alkaline earth with SnO.sub.2.

Abstract: A method of forming a bore for attachment of an end of a suture, in a proximal end portion of an eyeless operating needle. An original needle is prepared which has its outer diameter greater than that of the operating needle. Beam is applied to an end face of a proximal end portion of the original needle to form the bore therein extending along an axis of the proximal end portion of the original needle, with an outer peripheral portion of the original needle serving as a heat conductive material. Subsequently, an outer diameter of the original needle is reduced to remove the outer peripheral portion from the original needle, to form the operating needle. Alternatively, a separate heat conductive material is disposed around at least one eyeless operating needle and is removed after the bore is formed in the proximal end portion of the operating needle.

Abstract: A wiper driving unit for driving a wiper for a vehicle such as a motor vehicle includes: a driving gear driven by a motor, for driving the wiper; and a clutch member formed of a conductive resilient plate, rotatably supported and rotatable together with the driving gear in the biasing direction only when the driving gear is rotated in the biasing direction. An engageable member on the driving side is projectingly provided on the driving gear, and an engageable member on the driven side is connected in operational association to the clutch member. The engageable member on the driving side and the engageable member on the driven side are engaged with each other to rotate the driving gear together with the clutch member in the same direction only when the driving member is rotated in the biasing direction.

Abstract: A device for supporting simultaneously the bottom ends of both stiles of a ladder from sloping ground, so that the rungs of the ladder are horizontal, comprises a reversible triangular platform, which is supported from the ground by three feet, one of which spaces the respective corner of the platform at a greater height above the ground than the other two feet.

Abstract: A plurality of light emitting elements which are adapted to emit light of three primary colors are activated in a sequential order, and the emitted light is transmitted through a single emission side optical fiber to illuminate an image surface. Reflected light from the image surface is conveyed to a light receiving element through a corresponding receiving side optical fiber. A decision circuit determines whether or not an output from the light receiving element has reached a given level. The sequence of emission from the respective light emitting elements as well as the amount of light emitted therefrom are controlled by control means. When the given level is reached, the associated data is stored to assure a proper reading of the image.

Abstract: In a fluid-cooled cylinder head for a series of cylinders of a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine provided with a combustion chamber for each cylinder, the cooling water chambers co-ordinated with the individual combustion chambers are separated from each other, so that individual small casting cores can be used instead of a large casting core forming all the cooling water chambers of the cylinder head. The appropriate number of small casting cores can be inserted into the mould according to the number of cylinders, so that cylinder heads for cylinder blocks with different numbers of cylinders can be manufactured, using several casting cores. The cooling water chamber for each combustion chamber is so designed that a single unipart casting core can be used, which is so shaped that the cooling water is directed against the wall of the combustion chamber and against the sparking plug dome.

Abstract: An alarm buzzer includes a bobbin mounted within a housing and having a base portion and a hollow cylindrical portion. The mounting plate is interposed between the bottom wall and the base portion. A coil is wound around the cylindrical portion, and opposite ends of the coil are connected respectively to a pair of terminals mounted on the base portion. An iron core extends through the cylindrical portion of the bobbin and is held in engagement with the bobbin and the bottom wall, thereby holding the bobbin and the mounting plate against movement with respect to the housing. An armature is resiliently supported on the mounting plate for being attracted into the core upon energization of the electromagnet. Upon de-energization of the electromagnet, the armature is returned into striking contact with a vibratory plate to produce a sound under the restoring force of the resilient means.
