Abstract: In-vehicle electronic equipment includes an operation display panel, an opening-closing mechanism, a housing unit, a photosensor, and a control device. The opening-closing mechanism selectively moves the operation display panel to an open position and a closed position. The housing unit is configured to house an electronic device together with a connector connected to the electronic device. The photosensor detects whether an electronic device is housed in the housing unit. The control device controls the opening-closing mechanism. When the photosensor detects that no electronic device is housed in the housing unit while the operation display panel is in the open position, the control unit controls the opening-closing mechanism not to bring the display unit to the closed position.

A main frame supports the receiving-side connector in such a manner that the receiving-side connector is movable in a connection direction.

Abstract: A disc transfer section for transferring an optical disc by guide members and a transfer roller is disposed adjacent to an opening of a casing 110. A detector 500 for detecting the optical disc is disposed adjacent to the opening. When unloading the optical disc, the peripheral edge of the optical disc contacts with slide members so that the slide members are slid, thereby sensor switches SW1 to SW4 are appropriately switched on and off. Based on a time difference between the timings of the on/off switchings, the relation between a movement trajectory of the center of the optical disc and an axis of symmetry that is a straight line indicating a transfer direction at the center of the opening is judged in order to control the drive of a transfer motor according to the movement trajectory. The amount of advancement when the unloading is completed is kept constant.

Since the disc 11 is held by the holding section 41A when the disc 11 is transported, the disc 11 is prevented from being disengaged from the transport section 41B, so that a transport distance of the disc 11 can be lengthened.

Abstract: A method of separating a protein by gel electrophoresis, which comprises a staining step for bringing a protein-containing sample into contact with a staining liquid containing a staining agent, a surfactant and a buffer solution, and an electrophoresis step for subjecting the protein-containing sample after the staining step to gel electrophoresis. According to the present invention, using a staining liquid containing a surfactant such as SDS and the like, a protein-containing sample can be stained in a short time, and can develop color with high sensitivity. In addition, since an excess staining agent migrates earlier than protein by electrophoresis, a washing operation is not necessary. Furthermore, by staining, after the first dimension electrophoresis, with a staining liquid containing a surfactant such as SDS and the like, the second dimension electrophoresis can be performed immediately.

Abstract: A main frame supports a receiving-side connector to which a connecting-side connector is connected in movable manner toward inside. A holding unit holds the receiving-side connector that is moved to the inside. A connector biasing unit applies a biasing force toward outside to the receiving-side connector.
