Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the field of medical instruments, disclosing an endoscope master-slave motion control method. The endoscope includes an operating arm, a main body disposed at an end of the operating arm, a first imaging unit, a second imaging unit, and an end instrument protruding from a distal end of the main body.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the field of medical instruments, disclosing an endoscope control method. The method comprises: controlling a motion of an endoscope, the endoscope comprising a main body, a first imaging unit, a second imaging unit and an end instrument protruding from a distal end of the main body; obtaining a first image from the first imaging unit; obtaining a second image from the second imaging unit, wherein the first and the second images have different fields of view and include images of the end instrument; based on the first and second images, generating a composite scene image to remove an actual image of the end instrument; and generating a virtual image of the end instrument in the composite scene image.

Abstract: A door lock (10) includes a driving device (30) having an outer spindle (36) and an outer handle (38) mounted to the outer spindle (36). A mounting member (56) is rotatably mounted in a compartment (46) of the outer handle (38). A positioning member (72) is movably received in a groove (54) of the outer handle (38). When a lock core (74) disengages from the mounting member (56), the mounting member (56) cannot move along a longitudinal axis but can pivot about a pivotal axis relative to the outer handle (38) to change a positional relationship between first and second holes (64, 66) of the mounting member (56). After the lock core (74) engages with the mounting member (56), the mounting member (56) cannot pivot about the pivotal axis relative to the outer handle (38).

Abstract: A method for conducting a sales transaction. The method can include receiving at a terminal within a store a first identifier generated for a first item of merchandise selected by a customer while the customer is located within the store. The method also can include receiving from a virtual shopping cart a second identifier generated for a second item of merchandise. The first identifier and the second identifier can be processed in the sales transaction.

Abstract: A drying method for use of latent heat includes the following steps: A. installing a heating plate and a latent heat device having wax in a dry environmental space; B. placing an article to be dried in the dry environmental space; C. absorbing outside heat energy with the heating plate for drying process; D. utilizing the latent heat device to accumulate heat energy; and E. releasing the heat energy from the latent heat device for drying process. A drying apparatus for use of latent heat includes a box, a heating plate provided on the box, and a latent heat device provided in the box. The box has an entrance and a vent. The entrance is provided with a door to seal the entrance. The latent heat device comprises wax therein to do heat exchange through for drying purpose.
