Abstract: A clock switching apparatus is provided. The clock input terminal receives a first clock signal as an input clock signal at first and start to receive a second clock signal as the input clock signal during a masking state of a masking signal within a clock-switching time period. The enabling synchronizing circuit receives a clock-switching enabling signal, receives the input clock signal and generate a synchronized enabling signal accordingly. The masking circuit receives the synchronized enabling signal and the mask signal to generate a final enabling signal. The output circuit receives the input clock signal, receive the final enabling signal that disables the output circuit only when either the masking signal is at the masking state or the synchronized enabling signal is at the clock-switching enabling state, and generate an output clock signal according to the input clock signal when the output circuit is enabled.

Abstract: An anti-human T-cell immunoglobulin domain and mucin domain 3 (TIM-3) antibody, can bind the peptides, comprising the amino-acid sequence RKGDVSL (SEQ ID NO: 9) and/or EKFNLKL (SEQ ID NO: 10) of human TIM-3 protein. The antibody can regulate immune cell activity. The antibody or binding fragment thereof is useful in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of cancers that have been reported to express cell-surface TIM-3 such as lung, liver, esophageal cancer and solid tumors.

Abstract: An electronic control V-belt continuously variable transmission mechanism is applied in a power transmission system having an engine and support shafts for a driving pulley and a driven pulley, characterized by driving the driving pulley with power supplied by a pulley driving system such that a movable portion of the driving pulley moves axially to the driving-pulley support shaft, thereby enabling a movable portion of a driven pulley connected to the driving pulley to move in response to the axial distance variation, thus changing the rotational speed of the driven pulley. The contact between a cam guide groove of a bearing base of the pulley driving system and a cam guide device is transmitted through rolling friction, and the transmission efficiency is increased by a complex lead angle effect formed between a lead angle of the cam guide groove and a lead screw.
