  • Patent number: 9844246
    Abstract: There is provided a slide fastener slider. A front mounting portion and a rear mounting portion are respectively provided with receiving grooves for receiving a lock member. The receiving grooves have right and left side walls. Protrusions are respectively provided on upper end edges of the side walls of the front mounting portion. When the upper end portions of the side walls of the front mounting portion are inclined in a direction of approaching each other, the protrusions approach each other, and the protrusions cover the lock member more largely relative to portions of the side walls other than the protrusions.

  • Patent number: 5844533
    Abstract: An image display circuit supplies gray scale data according to a video signal to a liquid crystal panel to present a gray-scaled display and scans the liquid crystal panel N times during one field period of a video signal. The image display circuit includes a table ROM comparing a current video signal with a previous video signal of one frame before, and generates gray scale data for N times in accordance with the comparison result. Gray scale data greater than the gray scale of the current video signal is generated when the comparison result indicates that the gray scale of the current video signal is greater than that of the previous video signal, and gray scale data smaller than the gray scale of the current video signal is generated when the gray scale of the current video signal is found to be smaller than that of the previous video signal. Based on the generated gray scale data, the liquid crystal panel is driven with the proper gray scales.

  • Patent number: 5116193
    Abstract: A three-dimensional framed structure is built up by interconnecting rod members end to end by knuckle members. Each rod member includes, at either end, a sleeve in which a connecting bolt is axially inserted from the inner side, and a rotary member disposed at an outer end of the sleeve in such a manner that each said rotary member is not turnable relative to the connecting bolt and is movable axially relative thereto. A temporarily holding means is carried by the sleeve. The temporarily holding means can project outwardly from an outer peripheral surface of the sleeve to temporarily hold the bolt from being axially moved relative to the rotary member until the bolt is screwed into one of screw holes of one of the knuckle members to some extent, and the temporarily holding means can be retracted into the sleeve, until it is flush with the outer peripheral surface of the sleeve, when the bolt is screwed into the one screw hole of the knuckle member to some extent.
