Abstract: A male connector (M) has male housings (20A, 20B, 20C) and is connectable with a female connector (F) with female housings (40A, 40B, 40C). Error connection preventing projections (28A, 28B) of the male housings (20A, 20B) are received in receiving portions (47A, 47B) of the female housings (40A, 40B) to connect the two connectors (M, F) properly if the combination of the housings in the male and female connectors (M, F) is correct. However, the error connection preventing projections (28A, 28B) on the male housings (20A, 20B) interfere with opposed the female housings (40B, 40C) and hinder connection of the two connectors (M, F) if the combination of housings is incorrect.

Abstract: There is provided a system for controlling a dialog flow so that a user can purchase goods with the feeling closer to face-to-face sales in the sales of goods using the Internet.

Abstract: A connector has first and second housings (10, 20) and a wire cover (30) is mounted to cover the upper surface of the second housing (20). A lever (40) is supported rotatably on the second housing (20) and has cam grooves that engage follower pins (15) on the first housing (10). The two housings (10, 20) are connected by rotating the lever (40) to an end position. During this time, arms (41) of the lever (40) constantly press parts of the wire cover (30) to prevent the wire cover (30) from widening sufficiently to disengage the wire cover (30) from the female housing (20).

Abstract: In order to prevent terminal fittings of a card edge connector from short circuiting, a housing 11 is provided with a short circuit preventing member 50 made from insulating material. This short circuit preventing member 50 can be moved between a short circuit preventing position, between resilient contacts 42 of terminal fittings 40 provided at mutually opposing upper and lower locations, and a retreated position, which is to the posterior of the short circuit preventing position. Since the upper and lower terminal fittings 40 are prevented from short circuiting when the short circuit preventing member 50 is in the short circuit preventing position, the resilient contacts 42 are bendable to a greater degree, thus increasing their contacting force with contacts of a card edge connector.

Abstract: A watertight connector includes male and female housings (10, 20). The male housing (10) has an engaging end surface (10A) with a mounting recess (15) in which a seal (40) is mountable. The seal (40) has sealing portions (45) to be fitted around outer surfaces of pillars (16) that surround male terminal fittings (13). A lattice-shaped array of press-in grooves (46) is provided between the sealing portions (45), and a peripheral press-in groove (47) is formed between the sealing portions (45) and the mounting recess (15). A peripheral rib (32) and a lattice-shaped array of ribs (33) project from an engaging end surface (20A) of the female housing (20). The ribs (32, 33) enter the press-in grooves (46, 47) as the housings (10, 20) are connected and come into sealing contact with the outer circumferential surfaces of the sealing portions (45).

Abstract: The present invention is to efficiently exploit user needs. When a user registers a product in a favorites list, proxy server 2 saves the search parameters for that product. Proxy server 2 presents the search parameters saved in text or icon format to a user terminal 1, and accepts changes to the search parameters. Proxy server 2 receives a product purchase selection from user terminal 1, and saves the purchase history of the user. By presenting users' purchase histories to a vendor terminal 3 and the like, a product provider will know the degree to which what information presented to what user is effective. A product provider can effectively present information and promote an increase in sales.
