Abstract: The signal processing apparatus contains a first signal transforming circuit and a second signal transforming circuit. The first signal transforming circuit includes four first coupled lines and two second coupled lines, wherein two ends of each first coupled line are configured to carry a first pair of differential signals respectively, each second coupled line is magnetically coupled to two of the first coupled lines in parallel and comprises two signal ports, to which the two ends of each of the magnetically-coupled first coupled lines are placed symmetrically for transferring a second pair of differential signals. The second signal transforming circuit is configured to convert between the second pairs of differential signals at the signal ports and a third pair of differential signals at connecting ports of the second signal transforming circuit.

Abstract: A foldable leg rest has a base, a first folding assembly and a second folding assembly. The base has a mounting board and a first stage drive mechanism mounted on the mounting board. The first folding assembly is pivotally connected to the base and has a first frame and a second stage drive mechanism mounted in the first frame. The second folding assembly is pivotally connected to the first folding assembly. In use, the first stage drive mechanism is operated to drive the first folding assembly to pivot relative to the base and the second stage drive mechanism is operated to drive the second folding assembly to pivot relative to the first folding assembly. Therefore, the legs of a sitter can be stretched and placed on the folding assemblies so as to enhance comfort and minimize fatigue.

Abstract: A chair assembly has a seat, a backrest and an expandable leg supporting device. The seat has a front end and a rear end. The backrest is connected to the rear end of the seat. The expandable leg supporting device is mounted on the front end of the seat and has a base, at least one extension frame and a frame driving device. The base is mounted securely on the front end of the seat. The least one extension frame is connected to the base. The frame driving device is mounted on the base and is connected to the at least one extension frame to pivot the at least one extension frame relative to the base. Accordingly, the chair assembly can be expanded to support legs of a user in an expanded condition.

Abstract: A series of novel polyamine-linked acridine dimers and derivatives thereof are described. The polyamine-linked acridine dimers and derivatives are potential anti-cancer agents.
