Abstract: A work machine includes an attachment movable by an actuator, an operational member for operating the attachment through the actuator; and a controller operable to output an operation signal for operating the actuator in response to an operation of the operational member. The controller allows setting of a change amount in the operation signal corresponding to an operational amount of the operational member, independently for each operational direction of the actuator.

Abstract: Treatment equipment for treating body tissue comprises heater elements which are heated by electric power supplied from an electric power supply circuit, and the heat of the heater elements is provided to the body tissue through a heat transmitting member. The state of thermal connection between the heater elements and the heat transmitting member is determined by a determining device for determining the thermal connection state.

Abstract: It is possible to start engine economically and easily without deteriorating the theft prevention function even when an engine start key is lost. A vehicle theft prevention system includes permission tools (5C, 5D) for permitting rewrite or write-in of an ID code. The system has a start key registration function for corresponding the ID code of an engine key (5) to the ID code of an immobilizer control section (17), so that the engine key (5) functions as an engine start key (5A, 5B) when the ID code of the permission tools (5C, 5D) is correlated with the ID code recorded in the immobilizer control section (17) and matching is established. Accordingly, when the engine start key is lost or the like, a new engine start key is created for starting the engine economically and easily without requiring replacement of the entire theft prevention device.

Abstract: Endoscopes comprise image pickup elements for picking up images and transmission circuits and the like for transmitting the picked up images with radio waves of different frequencies. In addition, bar codes to code the frequencies used for transmission are provided to the respective endoscopes, the bar code provided to the endoscope used in endoscope inspection is read on a receiver side, and a reception frequency of a station selection unit is set to the read frequency, so that a signal obtained by a desired endoscope can be easily received and imaged even in case a plurality of endoscopes are used.

Abstract: There is disclosed a diagnostic apparatus which detects histopathological information from a biomedical tissue of a patient by a genetic information detection section disposed in an operation instrument during an operation, collates the information with a pathology database disposed in another place through communication between a detection processing/information transmission section and an information reception section, causes a pathologist to make verification or a judgment with respect to obtained diagnostic information, and quickly notifies the diagnostic information to a surgeon through communication. There is also disclosed a diagnostic system on which the diagnostic apparatus is mounted.

Abstract: The heating treatment device according to the present invention is constituted by a coagulation and incision forceps having a plurality of built-in heating elements, and a device main unit. A forceps identifying section inside the device main unit recognizes the identification of the type of forceps by an identifier, and information for the individual heating elements, and supplies the same to a temperature control and correction section. The temperature control and correction section reads out from a memory the resistance values for controlling required for the respective set temperatures for the respective heating elements, on the basis of this information. A heating setting section sets a resistance value for controlling for the set temperature level, from these resistance values for controlling. The resistance value detecting section calculates the resistance value for the heating elements from the measurement results of an applied power detecting section.

Abstract: A backhoe having a swivel deck supporting a driver's section and a hydraulically operable boom assembly. This backhoe includes a detecting device for detecting a position, direction of movement and velocity of movement of a bucket relative to the driver's section, and a control device for controlling the boom assembly based on detection values provided by the detecting device. The control device has a function to prohibit operation of the bucket when the bucket moves inwardly of a danger plane A1 or A2 disposed at a predetermined distance outwardly of the driver's section. The control device establishes a caution plane C1 or C2 disposed at a predetermined distance outwardly of the danger plane A1 or A2, and has a time estimating function which, when a bucket pin 6a lies in a danger zone B1 or B2 defined by the danger plane and caution plane, computes and estimates time taken for the bucket 6 to reach the danger plane A1 or A2.
