Abstract: An elongated member such as a bar includes spaced-apart infrared light illumination ports at opposite ends thereof. Exemplary spacing between the two spaced-apart light ports may be 20 centimeters or more. Each light port comprises an array of plural light sources. The plural light sources in each array may be directionally aimed to as to provide different illumination directions. The plural light sources in each array may emit different colors or frequencies of light. Example applications include targeting or marking capabilities for a video game or other system handheld pointing device.

Abstract: A non-limiting example electronic device includes a battery accommodating portion in which a battery unit is accommodated. A male connector is provided on wires drawn-out from a main unit of the battery unit, and the male connector is inserted (connected) to a female connector which is fixed on a circuit board provided within a housing, and a battery lid is attached to the housing. The battery lid is provided with a projection on a surface which is rendered as an inner surface side when the battery lid is attached, and the projection prevents a connection state of the male connector and the female connector from being disconnected. That is, the projection restrains a movement of the male connector in a direction that the male connector comes out.

Abstract: A non-limiting example hand-held electronic device includes a battery accommodating portion provided with an attaching portion which is formed in a rectangular shape in plain by longer first sides and shorter second sides, and formed with concave portions at corresponding positions on the first sides. A first battery unit is attached to the attaching portion by fitting first ends which form shorter sides of the first battery unit into the concave portions. When a second battery unit is to be attached to the same attaching portion, a second battery unit is attached within the first sides and the second sides without using the concave portions.

Abstract: An electric contact member has a texture wherein fire proof metal powder having the form of a flat plate is diffused in a matrix of a highly conductive metal. The flat surface is oriented in one direction and the surface in parallel with the flat surface of the fire proof metal powder is used as a contact point face.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is to provide an electric contact member characterized by excellent current breaking capacity as well as a high degree of dielectric strength and welding resistance, and the method for manufacturing this electric contact member at a low production cost with high productivity.

Abstract: The inventive electric contact point of a vacuum valve is made of a sintered alloy containing a heat-resistant metal and a high-conductivity metal. The contact point has at least three slit grooves which extend from the central region to the peripheral region of the contact point, and is soldered to an electrode rod which is connected to the contact point. The contact point includes at least three radially extending vane type contact point members each made of a sintered alloy containing a heat-resistant metal and a high-conductivity metal, and soldered to the electrode rod.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide vacuum switch suitable for a distribution and transformation system compatible between structural simplicity and reliability and a vacuum switchgear using the vacuum switch.
