Abstract: A connector assembly includes a cap housing with a first fastener, a plug, and a position assurance member coupled to the plug and the cap housing. The plug includes a first end portion to be inserted into the cap housing, a plug-side flange protruding from an outer side of the plug, and a second fastener to be fastened to the first fastener. A first end portion of the cap housing is inserted into the plug-side flange. The position assurance member has a coupling flange into which a second end portion of the plug and a second end portion of the cap housing are inserted.

Abstract: A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), which has an engine and a motor and travels using a power of the engine and an electric power of the motor, includes: a battery configured to supply a drive energy of the motor; a battery sensor configured to measure a state of charge (SOC) of the battery; and a controller configured to estimate an average mileage per cycle established using traveling information of the vehicle, estimate an average SOC per cycle using the measured SOC, and control a reference power needed for driving the engine according to the estimated average mileage and the estimated average SOC.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a hair implanter with an automatically retracting needle, and more specifically, to a hair implanter with an automatically retracting needle configured to automatically move a needle backward by a force of a spring when the needle is moved forward to a predetermined position to allow hair transplantation work to be smoothly performed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel protein secretion factor, a vector including a nucleic acid sequence encoding the protein secretion factor, and a transformed cell into which the vector is introduced. The invention also relates to a method of producing a target protein using the transformed cell including the vector.

Abstract: Disclosed is a thermal reduction apparatus. The thermal reduction apparatus according to the exemplary embodiment includes: a preheating unit which preheats a to-be-reduced material and loads the to-be-reduced material into a reducing unit; the reducing unit which is connected to the preheating unit and in which a thermal reduction reaction of the to-be-reduced material occurs; a cooling unit which is connected to the reducing unit and from which the to-be-reduced material flowing into the cooling unit is unloaded to the outside; a gate device which is installed between the preheating unit and the reducing unit; a gate device which is installed between the reducing unit and the cooling unit; a condensing device which is connected to the reducing unit and condenses a metal vapor; a first blocking unit which is installed in the reducing unit; and a second blocking unit which is installed in the reducing unit so as to be spaced apart from the first blocking unit.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a storage configured to store navigation information, a communication module configured to receive current location information, a power apparatus configured to generate a driving force and to adjust the generated driving force, and a controller configured to acquire, if a cruise control mode is input, information about a location at which an event occurs based on the navigation information, and to control operation of the power apparatus based on the current location information and the information about the location at which the event occurs.

Abstract: A generic wafer includes memory units separated by scribe lanes. Memory chips of different storage capacities can be produced from different numbers of memory units on the generic wafer by forming one or more interconnect layer specialized according to a desired storage capacity and cutting the wafer using a sawing pattern according to the desired storage capacity.

Abstract: A jitter suppression circuit for removing a jitter component contained in a synchronous reference clock signal which is supplied from a synchronization network to a phase locked loop circuit in a switching system, the phase locked loop circuit generating a clock signal in response to the synchronous reference clock signal from the synchronization network. The jitter suppression circuit removes the jitter component contained in the synchronous reference clock signal, to supply a pure synchronous reference clock signal to the phase locked loop circuit. Therefore, the phase locked loop circuit can output the clock signal at a stabilized state because it can control a phase of the clock signal with no effect of the jitter component.
