Abstract: A light emitting module includes 7 colors (2700K 5700K, violet, blue, cyan, lime, and red) of LEDs. With the light emitting module, by causing each of the 7 colors of LEDs to emit at a predetermined intensity, it is possible to emit high color rendering mixed light that has a correlated color temperature from 5000 to 6500K corresponding to the color temperature of daylight, and that can achieve an average color rendering index Ra and a special color rendering index R9 of 98 or greater (99), and a special color rendering index R12 of 94 or greater.

Abstract: To provide an oxygen and hydrogen production technology that is novel, convenient, and environmentally suitable, and decomposes water at a high rate. Based on the finding that an aromatic amine polymer acts as an oxidation catalyst that generates oxygen from water and a polyarylenevinylene acts as a reduction catalyst that generates hydrogen from water, oxygen and hydrogen are generated at a high rate by applying a slight overpotential relative to an equilibrium potential because these catalysts operate at a very low overpotential. Further, irradiation of the water-oxidation?oxygen-generation catalyst with light including solar light increases a production rate of oxygen and hydrogen. The aromatic amine polymer and the polyarylenevinylene are both aromatic polymers, are low cost, and have considerably high durability in water over a wide pH range and in addition, they may have hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity, interface area, and shape suited for electrode catalysts.

Abstract: This diagnostic image processing apparatus receives an input of an X-ray image of a hand or a foot, detects, in the X-ray image, the imaging range of the left hand, the right hand, the left foot, or the right foot, and extracts, at least for each joint located in the detected imaging range and used for assessment by using an assessment method selected from either van der Heijde method or Genant method, portions of relatively high luminance from the opposing ends of a pair of bones located across each of the joints. Then, the diagnostic image processing apparatus generates and outputs information about a distance and an area between the extracted high luminance parts as diagnosis information for each joint used for the assessment carried out by the selected assessment method.

Abstract: A solenoid valve for a fuel system has an electric coil and an armature disposed in a housing. A preassembled valve unit with valve seat, valve member, valve spring, and armature plate connected captively to each other is provided. In the valve unit, the valve seat is loosely secured between valve member and armature plate. The valve unit is inserted and secured in an open housing end and the valve spring contacts an inner shoulder of the housing. Armature plate and armature form a magnetic circuit. The valve member is supported on the armature plate and switched to open and close an outlet of the valve seat. By suppling current, a magnetic field is generated in the armature and attracts the armature plate into an operative valve position. The valve spring returns the armature plate into a rest position when the coil is currentless.

Abstract: To obtain a novel therapeutic drug for a malignant tumor or fibrosis. Used is a compound represented by formula (1), a salt thereof, or a solvate thereof. Also used is a therapeutic drug for a malignant tumor or a therapeutic drug for fibrosis, comprising a compound represented by formula (1), a salt thereof, or a solvate thereof.

Abstract: An attachment structure for a solenoid valve which can be stably attached to and removed from a carburetor unit with a single movement and without increasing the number of parts. A rod-like supporting portion is disposed a predetermined distance away from a surface of a carburetor unit and extending in a direction substantially perpendicular to a direction of and installed near an opening in the surface of the carburetor unit. A cylindrical engaging portion extends from a circumferential face of a cylindrical body fitted on the solenoid valve substantially perpendicular to an axial line of the rod-like supporting portion, and forms a groove-like engagement portion which is narrower in diameter than the rod-like supporting portion, whereby the engaging portion, via the groove-like engagement portion, is coupled to and supported by rod-like supporting portion when an insertion portion of the solenoid valve is inserted into the opening.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires information about a color space specified for an object to be processed by interpreting input image data, and a determination unit that determines whether a first color conversion or a second color conversion is used by using the information acquired by the acquisition unit. The first color conversion is used for converting only a color to be processed into a color in a device-dependent color space. The second color conversion is used for converting the color to be processed and the color having a different density into a color in the device-dependent color space.

Abstract: An electromagnetic fuel valve has a valve chamber, a valve element and a valve seat assigned to the valve element. The valve chamber is delimited by an electromagnetic drive which moves the valve element relative to the valve seat. The drive includes a receiving housing for a coil carrier with an electrical coil. A magnet core is inserted into the coil carrier and has an end section facing the valve element. At an open sealing end facing toward the valve chamber, a sealing element is arranged between the end section of the magnet core and the receiving housing. To achieve good sealing, that end section of the magnet core situated in the sealing element expands the sealing element and compresses the material thereof radially against the edge of the sealing end of the receiving housing to seal the valve chamber to the interior space of the receiving housing.
