Abstract: A spring force of a thrust spring can be determined independently of a spring force of a locking spring, reducing an operating load of an unlocking operation. A locking device includes a locking mechanism provided on one of two members to be engaged with each other, and a striker provided on the other of the two members. The locking mechanism includes a base plate, a hook, a pawl, a cam, a locking spring, a thrust spring and a canceling plate. The base plate has a recess that is capable of receiving the striker. The hook, when rotated relative to the base plate, is capable of forming a locked condition in which the striker is held between the hook and the recess of the base plate or an unlocked condition in which the hook is spaced away from the striker. The pawl is capable of rotating relative to the base plate and maintaining the hook in the locked condition. The cam is capable of further pressing the hook in the locked condition toward a locking direction.

Abstract: A locking device includes a locking mechanism and a striker. A hook of the locking mechanism, when rotated, is capable of forming a locked condition in which the striker is held between the hook and a recess of a base plate. A pawl is capable of rotating to a position in which the pawl can engage the hook and maintaining the hook in the locked condition. A locking spring is capable of biasing the hook and the pawl such that the hook and the pawl are stabilized in the locked condition or the unlocked condition. A thrust member is capable of rotating to a thrusting position in which the thrust member can press the hook in the locked condition toward a locking direction via a cam surface formed therein. A thrust spring is capable of biasing the thrust member toward the thrusting position. A through hole that is formed in the thrust member forms a deformation promoting portion.

Abstract: To provide a release film which is used to avoid adherence between a press hot plate and a printed circuit board or a cover lay film at the time of press work effected to printed circuit boards such as printed wiring boards, flexible printed circuit boards and multilayered printed circuit boards and which has a heat resistance, a releasing property, a non-contamination property, a follow up capability relative to the circuit pattern, an excellent workability during processing and a small environmental impact at the time of disposal, the release film has a shear modulus of 5×105˜107 Pa at a hot press lamination temperature and is formed by overlapping at least one thermoplastic resin layer and at least one metallic layer one above the other.

Abstract: In a nonhuman animal model that produces a secretory protein, which is obtained by transplanting secretory protein-expression vector-transfected cells into a nonhuman animal, an amount of the secretory protein is measured and, based on the amount of the secretory protein, transcriptional activity, number of the transplanted cells, and tumor volume is measured. Further, screening of a compound that affects a transcriptional activity, number of transplanted cells, or tumor volume is performed by using the nonhuman animal model to which a compound has been administered.

Abstract: A locking devices may include a striker and a locking mechanism. The locking mechanism may include a base plate having a slot that can receive the striker, a latch rotatably attached to the base plate, a pawl rotatably attached to the base plate, and a cam member rotatably attached to the base plate. The locking mechanism includes a force transmitting path for transmitting a force that urges the locking mechanism in a locking condition to be disengaged from the striker. The force transmitting path passes through the cam member and includes a force interrupting portion positioned therein. The force interrupting portion is arranged and constructed to interrupt the force transmitting path when the force exceeds a predetermined value.

Abstract: A recording device for recording digital recording data in a recording mode of the recording device comprises data bus means to which a digital data bus can be connected and which are designed for receiving input data transmitted in at least a first input channel of the data bus. Received input data can be processed by processing means and be recorded as recording data on a data carrier by recording means of the recording device. The recording device further comprises test means for testing whether input data are received in the first input channel. Furthermore, a record-prepared mode can be activated in the recording device, and the test means, with the record-prepared mode being activated, are designed for activating the recording mode for recording input data received in the first and/or in at least one second input channel as recording data for the duration of reception of input data in the first input channel.

Abstract: A reclining mechanism for a vehicle seat includes first and second attachment members coupled with each other at their outer peripheries and connected by a hinge pin, a slide pawl slidably mounted within one of the attachment members, and a cam element mounted on the hinge pin in a space between the attachment members. The cam element is engaged with the slide pawl to maintain engagement with the ratchet portion of the attachment member when the hinge pin is retained in a torsion spring load position. This construction permits relative rotation of the attachment members for adjustment of an inclined angle of a backrest. In the reclining mechanism, a thrust member is coupled with one of the attachment members and welded to a frame structure of the back rest allowing the device to be assembled as a unit.

Abstract: A processor for analog and digital audio, video, and control information has analog connections to supply analog A/V signals and output control information to a television set. At the beginning of a recording mode in the DVHS video recorder, when an A/V signal (which may be a processed digital reception signal) of a television program just being displayed on the television set is applied to the television set, the signal is supplied to the DVHS video recorder as an A/V signal via an analog connection and/or as digital A/V data via a digital connection. An A/V signal of a television program being displayed on the television set and supplied by its tuner is transferred from one analog connection to another analog connection from the beginning of a recording mode in the DVHS video recorder, as a result of which the A/V signal is recorded by the DVHS video recorder.

Abstract: Disclosed is a packet transmitting/receiving apparatus that receives a response packet to a transmitted request packet without fail. When a request packet is transmitted by a packet transmitter, a prediction of a response packet is made in reply to the transmitted request packet. When the response packet is received from a transmission medium, a comparator compares a portion of the packet received by a receiver with a portion of the packet and, only when they match, outputs the received packet. In this way, the expected response packet is received without fail. This enhances the reliability of the transmission medium.
