Abstract: A brush is provided in which a brush body is formed with a circumference of a fur bundle being surrounded with a fabric material and a tip end face of the fur bundle being extruded and exposed.

Abstract: A method for producing low potassium juice with improved taste. The process includes the steps of treating potassium-containing juice with a cation exchange resin to remove 90% or more of the potassium content in the juice and adding a calcium compound which is calcium carbonate in the form of solid. The juice produced has improved taste and nutritional balance. It is also good for patients suffering from kidney failure.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the updating of control programs using the Internet. More particularly techniques are provided for the automatic and safe updating of a control program in a stored control program unit of a computer system. A specific embodiment provides security and reduces the cost of updating a control program by first, executing the instruction to update the control program using a first connection, for example a public telephone line, and then using a second connection via the Internet to download the update to the control program.

Abstract: The traverse apparatus of the subject invention is provided at the end of the main base 24 with a control box 38 having electromagnetic valves 57, 58, relief valves 59, 60, and manifold 61; and, one or more connectors 54 affixed at one end to sliding base 28 and at the other end to a separate sliding base 70. By these elements, the main body having cylinder 32 is separated from the rail guides 22, 23, the work of replacing a worn cylinder 32 is made easy, conveyance can be expedited, and the head mounting bases for attaching working heads can be increased readily.

Abstract: A design supporting method having a specification edit function in an information processing system having a computer and an interactive terminal is disclosed. Items to be described in a specification are correlated among specifications so that when an item described in the specification is modified, a portion which is possibly affected by the modification can be analyzed.

Abstract: A fuel injection system for an internal combustion engine having a fuel pump drive for driving a fuel pump of the injection system at different speed ratios depending upon the engine conditions. The pump is driven at a higher speed during starting than when the engine is operating.

Abstract: An electrical connector includes elastic female contacts arranged in an insulating housing having opening, and a spring member obtained by V-bending an elastic sheet. A flexible printed circuit (FPC), which is attached to the V-bent outside surface of the spring member and having an exposed-conductor section to be electrically connected to a contact section of the female contact, is inserted with the spring member into the housing through the opening. The respective conductors of the FPC contact the corresponding female contacts under the spring elasticity of the spring member.

Abstract: A method of amino acid analysis by reacting an amino acid-containing sample with o-phthalaldehyde and an N-protective group-substituted cysteine such as N-acetyl-L-cysteine under an alkaline condition to yield a fluorescent compound and measuring the intensity of fluorescence or absorbance of the resulting compound. The method is sensitive for quantitative and qualitative analysis of a secondary amino acid such as proline when it is beforehand subjected to an oxidation.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for shaping the coil ends for electric appliances wherein convex shapes are formed in the end portions of a plurality of types of coils, and the number or different shape of the convex shapes in each coil is selected to simplify the distinguishing of the plurality of end portions extending from each coil from each other and to prevent wiring errors in the connection of the end portions.

Abstract: An apparatus for forming an interpole crossover wire in a winding apparatus for winding a wire around a spool to form stator coils. The circular arc motion of a pair of pawls is performed by a piston-cylinder device driving an adjustable link mechanism. By adjusting the dimensions of the link mechanism the length of the circular arc motion of the pawls can be adjusted.

Abstract: A wire cutting apparatus for use in a winding machine which winds an electric wire or the like round a spool, wherein one terminal wire leading to the coil from the terminal wires formed through the drawing operation of the wire is cleared to remove the entwinement with the cutting arm, the other terminal wire leading to the nozzle of the flyer is descended together with the clamp pawl, with the result that the terminal wire is not involved in the flyer even if the terminal wire is floated after the clamp pawl has released the terminal wire.

Abstract: An improved coil winding apparatus, for example, for stators of electrical machines and the like, in which undesirable rising or floating of coils accommodated in a coil inserting jig is prevented by the employment of a rockable stop which permits the coils formed above the stop to be pushed onto the lower part of the coil inserting jig by the rocking function of the stop, and which cannot pivot past a horizontal position, thereby blocking floating or rising of coils off the coil inserting jig.

Abstract: A coil winding apparatus comprising a spool, a flyer for effecting relative revolution around the spool to wind the wire around the spool, a continuous wire passage for guiding the wire to the flyer, a bobbin with the wire wound therearound, and a feeding means for compulsorily feeding the wire, wound around the bobbin, to the flyer through the wire passage, the continuous wire passage through which the wire is extended to form the coil allowing the wire to be automatically fed into the wire passage, whereby the time required for the wire inserting operation to be effected during the replacement of the wire can be considerably shortened.

Abstract: A holding device used in a drawing-in device for inserting winding coils into a stator core of an electrical machine from a transfer tool carrying the winding coils. The holding device includes a stationary cam plate defining therein a cam groove and a pusher block supporting a holding down-plate, which pusher block bears guide rollers cooperating with the cam groove so that the holding-down plate is guided to the stator core disposed on the transfer tool and then applies a force in the direction of the stator core axis about which an associated rotor of electrical machine is rotated.
