Abstract: A C1 switching valve 80 establishes a first supply state, in which a C1 solenoid pressure Pslc1 can be supplied to a clutch C1, when a line pressure PL is supplied as a holding pressure, and when a modulator pressure Pmod is supplied as a holding pressure and a B1 solenoid pressure Pslb1 is not supplied. The C1 switching valve 80 establishes a second supply state, in which the line pressure PL can be supplied to the clutch C1, when the modulator pressure Pmod is supplied as a holding pressure and the B1 solenoid pressure Pslb1 is supplied. The C1 switching valve 80 is supplied with the modulator pressure Pmod as a holding pressure when an abnormality occurs in supply of the C1 solenoid pressure Pslc1.

This game system is provided with a device (32) for storing relation data for determining whether or not a predetermined connection exists between players, a device (11) for determining the selection state pertaining to the items selected by the players on the game machines, a device (11, 12) for determining, based on the relation data, other players that have the predetermined connection with the player, and a device (21) which, when the player is making the selection from the selective items, presents the player making the selection with the selection state of other players having the predetermined connection with that player.

Abstract: In a hydraulic control device, when a solenoid pressure from a linear solenoid valve is not supplied to a brake, which is normally not engaged at the same time as a brake, not to engage the brake, a switching valve is supplied with a line pressure as a signal pressure for establishing a blocked/discharge state in which supply of the solenoid pressure to the brake is blocked and a hydraulic pressure can be discharged from the brake. When the solenoid pressure is supplied to the brake to engage the brake, the switching valve is supplied with a modulator pressure, which is lower than the line pressure, as a signal pressure for establishing a communicated state in which the solenoid pressure can be supplied to the brake.

Abstract: There is provided a system where usage charge of a facility can be paid by virtual money. A card ID and a consumption amount of virtual money are transmitted from a game terminal as charging-target terminal apparatus, the card ID being recorded in a card possessed by a user (step S31). The server apparatus replaces the card ID with a user ID unique to each user (step S32), and specifies a virtual money account managed by the server apparatus in association with the user ID. When the balance of the account is not less than the consumption amount, the consumption amount is subtracted from the balance of the account, and when the balance is less than the consumption amount, the subtraction of the consumption amount is stopped (stepS34). Transaction result information including information indicating whether the subtraction of consumption amount has succeeded is transmitted to the game terminal (3) as a response (steps S35, S36).

Abstract: In a vehicle body side structure, an impact beam (116) is mounted to a door inner panel (110) by an impact beam extension (118). A part of the impact beam extension (118) that extends from an impact beam fixing part (126) to the door inner panel (110) serves as a load transmission part (128) capable of transmitting a load from the impact beam (116) to the door inner panel (110), and the extension line therefrom is directed at the centroid C2 of the body pillar (106). With a simple structure such as this, at the time of a side impact it is possible to transfer a load from the impact beam (116) in a straight line to the centroid C21 of the body pillar (106) while suppressing the twisting moment of the body pillar (106).

Abstract: A water jacket spacer has a spacer body molded in conformity to the shape of the water jacket and a regulating member whose one side is fixed to the spacer body. The regulating member is composed of a first member which is not water-swellable and is elastically deformable and a second member made of water-swellable elastomer which is integrally fixed to the first member. The regulating member lies in a state not-contacting an opposed wall of the water jacket when inserted into the water jacket together with the spacer body, whereas it blocks a part of cooling water flowing through the water jacket by deforming such that a side of the regulating member not fixed to the spacer body faces toward the opposed wall of the water jacket when the second member swells by absorbing cooling water flown into the water jacket and thereby the first member is elastically deformed.

Abstract: A card ID and a consumption amount of virtual money are transmitted from a game terminal as charging-target terminal apparatus, the card ID being recorded in a card possessed by a user (step S31). The server apparatus replaces the card ID with a user ID unique to each user (step S32), and specifies a virtual money account managed by the server apparatus in association with the user ID. When the balance of the account is not less than the consumption amount, the consumption amount is subtracted from the balance of the account, and when the balance is less than the consumption amount, the subtraction of the consumption amount is stopped (step S34). Transaction result information including information indicating whether the subtraction of consumption amount has succeeded is transmitted to the game terminal (3) as a response (steps S35, S36).
