Abstract: In an electric toothbrush in which a disk-like brush body is reciprocally rotated about an axis intersecting at a predetermined angle in a line extended in a longitudinal direction of a grip portion, a head portion put into user's mouth is made smaller or thinner, a rotation shaft of the brush body and a head portion are enabled incline at an optional angle with respect to the grip portion, and transmission efficiency of driving force is increased. For there purposes, an eccentric member having an eccentric shaft is fixed on a driving shaft of a motor, a joint portion formed at a first end portion of a lever member is made point contact with the eccentric shaft, so that the rotation movement of the eccentric shaft is converted to swing movement of the first end portion of the lever member.

Abstract: A cell multiplexing apparatus comprising call monitors and multiplexers. The call monitors monitor a plurality of channels for their call setting status and select at least two channels for which the same cell may be assembled, i.e., for which the destination of the calls is the same. The multiplexers receive audio information or information already assembled in asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) cells from the channels selected by the call monitors, and disassemble and multiplex the received information for assembly into the payload of a new ATM cell.

Abstract: A delay distortion suppressing system is for use in an asynchronous transfer mode communication system which includes at least a transmitting end and a receiving end which are connected via transmission paths. The delay distortion suppressing system includes a first part provided in the transmitting end for transmitting information in the form of cells in an asynchronous transfer mode, a second part provided in the receiving end for delaying each cell which is received via a transmission path by a predetermined delay time relative to a reference point, a third part provided in the receiving end for varying the reference point depending on an arrival time of the cell which is received at the receiving end via the transmission path, so that a delay distortion of the cells is suppressed, and a fourth part including a decoding part for decoding the cells output from the second part.

Abstract: A digital signal transmission system includes a synchronization pattern detection circuit for detecting a synchronization pattern in response to a received transmitted digital signal, a pseudo synchronization detection circuit for detecting a pseudo synchronization pattern in the form of cyclic redundancy code in response to a received transmitted digital signal, and a synchronization protection circuit for counting the synchronization pattern detection signals produced when synchronization patterns are detected in response to a synchronization pattern detection signal from the synchronization pattern detection circuit. The synchronization protection circuit includes a main synchronization counter circuit and an auxiliary synchronization counter circuit. The count of protection steps for the confirmation of synchronization recovery of the auxiliary synchronization counter circuit in accordance with synchronization or asynchronization of the main synchronization counter circuit is variable.

Abstract: A mooring system for a tanker comprising an outrigger secured to the tanker, a buoy anchored by chains, and a buoy supporting structure mounted in the outrigger, the buoy supporting structure being connected to or disconnected from the buoy.
