Abstract: A vehicle-body structure for a motorcycle which is capable of suppressing the reduction of a contact load of a rear wheel by reducing a load applied to a vehicle-body frame at an application of an excessive load from the front of a vehicle. In a vehicle-body structure for a motorcycle including a head pipe supporting a front wheel in front of a vehicle-body frame, a guide member guides the front wheel obliquely rearwardly during an application of an excessive load to the front wheel. The guide member is disposed rearwardly of the front wheel and at the front portion of the vehicle-body frame.

Abstract: A timer circuit for a mobile communication terminal includes a counter operating under a reference clock, a storage unit that stores a timer timeout time corresponding to a time measurement request when receiving the time measurement request from a CPU, and a comparator 104 that generates an interruption signal to the CPU 120 when the time corresponding to the output value of the counter is coincident with the timer timeout time stored in the storage unit. The storage unit stores a plurality of sets of timer timeout time corresponding to a plurality of time measurement requests, and a stored timer timeout time which is closest to the time corresponding to the output value of the counter is set to the timer timeout time to be compared by the comparator.

Abstract: In a timer circuit mounted on a mobile communication terminal etc, a plurality of time measurements with different sets of measurement time are realized with measurement errors reduced, and the power consumption is reduced. The timer circuit includes a counter 101 that operates under a reference clock, a storage unit (time memory 102 and comparison register 103) that stores the timer timeout time corresponding to a time measurement request when receiving the time measurement request from a CPU 120, and a comparator 104 that generates an interruption signal to the CPU 120 when the time corresponding to the output value of the counter 101 is coincident with the timer timeout time stored in the storage unit.

Abstract: A cellular phone includes a random number generator. When the cellular phone performs location registration operation, a time of executing location registration is determined by random numbers. Therefore, in a situation where a large number of cellular phones must perform location registration substantially simultaneously, an event where a large number of the location registration operations overlap with one another can be avoided. Hence, simultaneous concentration of loads on a network is eliminated, and stable communications between the cellular phones and an administrative server are maintained.

Abstract: A first and a second terminals 100 and 200 are connected to an asynchronous transmission line 300. Microphones 101 and 201 and loudspeakers 102 and 202, or image input units (i.e., cameras) 111 and 211 and image output units (i.e., displays) 112 and 212, are connected to the first and second terminals 100 and 200, respectively. The terminals 100 and 200 comprise sampling clock generators 103 and 203, data generators 104 and 204, data reproducers 105 and 205, transmission buffers 106 and 206 and n- (or plural) stage reception buffers 107 and 207. Thus, it can prevent data quality deterioration due to an overflow or an underflow when transmitting such data as voice or image data between the first and the second terminals via an asynchronous transmission line.

Abstract: A mobile station includes a degradation detecting section for detecting a degraded communication quality, an electric field measurement section for measuring an intensity of an electric field, and a display unit for representing a field level among a plurality of field levels. The display unit represents, upon generation of the degraded communication quality, a fixed field level instead of the field level corresponding to the intensity of the electric field measured by the electric field measurement section.

Abstract: An inflator unit provided on a main frame of a motorcycle is provided with an inflator case having an inflator stored therein. Gas generated by the inflator flows through the interior of the main frame and is supplied to the airbag. The inflator case includes the left and right case halves divided along the parting plane and joined with each other by two bolts and the internal space thereof narrows towards an exit opening in the funnel shape. The axis Li of the inflator is shifted to the side opposite from the exit opening with respect to the axis Lc of the inflator case. A main frame may be formed with an atmosphere communication hole for communicating the interior of the main frame with the atmosphere at the position near the inflator case so that the atmosphere is introduced through the atmosphere communication port into the interior of the main frame by the negative pressure generated when gas flows from the inflator to the airbag. Thus, a large-volume airbag can be deployed by a small-capacity inflator.

Abstract: A mobile communication terminal includes an IC card, a power supply, and a control section. The IC card stores an identification number. The power supply supplies power to the mobile communication terminal. The control section can set the mobile communication terminal to a communication possible state when the power is supplied from the power supply and an entered identification number is coincident with the identification number stored in the IC card. Also, the control section can set the mobile communication terminal to the communication possible state depending on a power down time period without an entering operation of the identification number when the supply of the power to the mobile communication terminal is stopped and then recovered.

Abstract: A cellular phone terminal according to the present invention performs active cell level measure and monitor cell level measure every predetermined period. A CPU uses an antenna selection signal to control an antenna changeover switch to select an antenna that is not currently selected. After the antenna changeover, the cellular phone terminal performs the active cell level measure. After the measurement for a first antenna and a second antenna, the cellular phone terminal compares measurement data of the first antenna and the second antenna and determines the antenna to be selected. The cellular phone terminal estimates peripheral conditions (use conditions of respective user interfaces for data communication and voice communication) thereof, and selects an effective antenna.
