Abstract: An instrument is provided for reduction of a rod or other elongated member into an implant, such as a bone screw. In one embodiment, such an instrument includes a rod adjusting assembly pivotably attached to an implant holding assembly. The implant holding assembly can be pivotably connected to an implant, and the rod adjusting assembly is operable to move a rod toward or away from the implant holding assembly. In that embodiment, several motions are possible by the instrument so that relatively small or large movements of a rod with respect to an implant may be made.

Abstract: A connector for a simple cabinet comprises a disk base formed with a +-shaped locking structure in one surface thereof, the +-shaped locking structure includes four pairs of parallel locking portions, and each pair of parallel locking portions defines a side inserting groove. Moreover, around the periphery of the disk base are defined four back inserting grooves vertical to the side inserting grooves, such arrangements are used for assembling the simple cabinet. In addition, in the gap between each two back inserting grooves is defined an inserting hole for insertion of a column-shaped object, so as to achieve the multi-function requirement.

Abstract: An electronic catalog is provided that stores items and attributes associated with the items. One or more of the attributes may have more than one value. Items are stored in an item table with different attributes for items stored in different rows in an attribute table. Additional items may be added to a catalog by adding additional rows to the item table, with attributes related to the additional items added as rows into the attribute table. Particular attributes may have multiple values, and attributes with multiple values are associated with sub-items that correspond to different attribute trees or attribute sets associated with the item. Searching can be performed for attribute values and search results returned indicating all items and sub-items that satisfy the search criteria.

Abstract: An electronic card of the present invention has an insulative casing, a connector, a circuit board, a receiving portion, a first shell and a second shell. The insulative casing includes a first bar, a second bar and a transverse bar between the first bar and the second bar. The first shell and the second shell are assembled to shield the insulative casing therebetween. The first shell forms tabs respectively for locking with assembling passages of the first bar and the second bar and locking holes of the transverse bar. The receiving portion has a first cover and a second cover, and either of the first cover and the second cover is unitarily formed with the insulative casing. A transverse bar connects with the first bar and the second bar and forms a lib thereon. Such an electronic card is assembled conveniently and reliably, and shield from EMI.

Abstract: Disclosed is method, system, and program for defining and administering a test to determine human perceptions of observable samples, such as printed text or images, sounds, motion pictures, etc. based on multiple factors. A displayable test building window includes input fields to receive input on at least one observable sample set according the multidimensional scaling experiment. Generated in a data gathering window is at least one perception input field for each observable sample set. The observer is capable of entering perception information in each input field concerning the observable samples. Observer perception input on the observable samples is received and stored. Statistical analysis is then performed on the entered perception input. A report is generated displaying the results of the multidimensional scaling calculations in the form of plots.

Abstract: An auxiliary lens module includes a magnetic holder and a magnetic attaching arrangement that are fastened with each other by magnetic attraction, and an auxiliary lens fixedly fastened with the magnetic attaching arrangement. A first chamer is formed in an upper portion of a holder body of the magnetic holder to receive a first magnet. A second chamer is formed in a lower portion of the holder body to receive a second magnet. The magnetic attaching arrangement includes a L-shaped attaching body that has a long arm located upon the magnetic holder and a short arm located behind the magnetic holder. The long arm is provided with a third chamer that receives a third magnet. The short arm is provided with a fourth chamer that receives a fourth magnet. The long arm extends in a side tongue with which is fixedly fastened the auxiliary lens.

Abstract: An improved method for inputting Chinese characters into computers and the keyboard arrangement therefor wherein the Chinese characters, of which the numbers are enormous and the structures are complicated, are reduced to obtain only a few rules for inputting Chinese characters and the 244 radicals are allocated on a standard keyboard.The present inputting method is based on "stroke orders". The manner in which the characters are input conforms with general writing habits such that the method is easy and convenient for an operator to learn fast.
