Abstract: Provided is a steering mechanism (8) including a swing bar (81a) which swings in response to input from a rider, a cam guide (83c) slidable on a peripheral surface of a column section (5a), a ball joint (82a) which slides the cam guide (83c) in response to the swinging of the swing bar (81a), a cam follower (83b) vertically provided on the peripheral surface of the column section (5a) to rotate the column section (5a) in response to the sliding of the cam guide (83c), and a coil spring (83e) which returns the cam guide (83c) to a predetermined rotation angle. The cam follower (83b) comes in contact with a cam surface (83c4) of the cam guide (83c) which has a recess surface shape, at two positions on the peripheral surface, in a state where the column section (5a) is located at a predetermined position.

Abstract: A wheelchair W includes: a column shaft (50) extending from the rear portion of a front fork (51) and turnably supported by a vehicle-body frame (2); a rocking bar (81a) that is rockably attached to the vehicle-body frame (2) and rocks according to a force applied by a rider; and a link mechanism (82) that joins the rocking bar (81a) and the column shaft (50) and turns the column shaft (50) according to rock of the rocking bar (81a).

Abstract: A communication device for transmitting data via a first server to a second server includes an acquiring unit operable to acquire, from the first server, server information as information indicating a style of data acceptable to the second server, a converting unit operable to convert a style of data to be transmitted into the style acceptable to the second server, based on the server information, and a transmitting unit operable to transmit data converted by the converting unit to the first server.

Abstract: An information processing device causes a computer to count the number of data having a predetermined relation on data included in a first data group. Further, when the counted number is N (N is a natural number) or more, the information processing device outputs a plurality of data having a predetermined relation to an output destination. Further, the information processing device counts the number of data having a predetermined relation on data included in the first data group and a second data group different from the first data group. Further, when the number of data having a predetermined relation which is counted on the data included in the first data group and the second data group is N or more, the information processing device output the data included in the second data group among a plurality of data having a predetermined relation to the output destination.

Abstract: A method for driving a plasma display panel having at least three electrodes. The method includes applying a first pulse having a voltage changing with time in a positive direction and a second pulse having a voltage changing with time in a negative direction to a second main electrode in an address preparation period. The method also includes applying a scan pulse to the second main electrode in an address period. The method also includes at least one of the first and second pulses in the address preparation period has a stepwise waveform whose voltage rise or fall stepwise.

Abstract: In a receiving device, a receiver receives extended program information. A user selects a program to be reserved by a selection operation using an operation input unit. An extended reservation manager causes an instruction receiver to transmit an extended reservation instruction based on an extended program identifier for identifying the selected program. In a recording device, a receiver receives program data, mapping information, and program information. The instruction receiver receives the extended reservation instruction transmitted from the receiver. An extended reservation executor acquires an extended program identifier from the received extended reservation instruction and acquires a program identifier corresponding to the extended program identifier on the basis of the mapping information, to store a program reservation on the basis of the program identifier. A program recorder/reproducer records and/or reproduces the program data in accordance with the stored program reservation.

Abstract: A method for driving an AC type surface-discharge display device having cells arranged in a matrix. Each cell has at least three electrodes including a pair of main electrodes and on every line of the matrix and an address electrode on every column of the matrix. The method includes conducting an address preparation period including applying a first charge adjusting voltage, monotonously rising or falling, to a gap between the main electrodes. The method also includes applying a charge adjusting voltage, monotonously rising or falling, to a gap between a scan electrode and the address electrode.

Abstract: A method for driving a plasma display panel having at least first electrodes and second electrodes which cause discharge in cells is provided. The method includes applying a first pulse and a second pulse to the second electrode in an address preparation period. The method also includes applying a scan pulse to the second pulse to the second electrode in an address period. The method includes the first pulse having a voltage changing with time in a positive direction and the second pulse having a voltage changing with time in a negative direction and the scan pulse having a negative voltage which is lower than the attained voltage of the second pulse.

Abstract: When performing the line-sequential addressing for setting the state of each of the cells arranged in rows and columns that constitute a display screen, discharge is generated that has intensity in accordance with display data corresponding to each of all cells belonging to the selected row for each selection of the row. Thus, the priming effect in the following discharge is generated.
