Abstract: A hydride ion conductor represented by a general formula: Ba2-x-mAxMg1-y-nByH6-x-y-2m-2n??(1), wherein A and B are each selected from at least one or more of the group consisting of Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs, and 0?x?1, 0?y?1, 0?m?0.2, and 0?n?0.2, excluding a case where x=y=m=n=0.

Abstract: A hydride ion conductor is represented by: MAMBH4-xFx??Formula (1), where MA is selected from the group consisting of Ca, Sr, and Ba, MB is selected from the group consisting of Mg and Ca, and is different from MA, and x is 0<x<4.

Abstract: An end effector attachment apparatus is an apparatus to be attached to an end effector of a robot. The end effector attachment apparatus includes a base plate, a mount plate on which the end effector is mounted, an attraction mechanism for attracting the mount plate to the base plate, and a bellows coupling the mount plate to the base plate. The front and rear edges of the bellows are sealed to the base plate and the mount plate to secure a sealed space inside the bellows.

Abstract: An article housing device for a small-sized vehicle allows an occupant to easily insert and remove an article while seated on a seat, and is capable of preventing a liquid spilled from a housing portion from dropping down to a floor on which the occupant places his/her foot. A dashboard includes a lateral extended portion and a protruding portion protruding rearward from the lateral extended portion, in which a plurality of housing portions allowing articles to inserted into and removed from above the housing portions are formed in the protruding portion, and at least two of the housing portions are aligned in the vehicle longitudinal direction.

Abstract: An improved and simplified suspension system for a small vehicle such as a golf cart designed to be operated by a single rider in a standing fashion. The front wheels are carried by a single beam type axle that is pivotal about a central pivot axis. An elastic block front suspension is incorporated for providing a progressively increasing spring rate upon suspension movement. In addition, resilient fore and aft damping devices in the form of U-shaped resilient blocks engage the beam axle and restrain its fore and aft movement.
