Abstract: A shoe sole structure of a cycling shoe for bicycles has a sole and an insole. The sole is made of rigid materials without deforming, and has at least one engaging hole, and at least one ventilating hole. The insole is made of soft materials, abuts against a top surface of the sole. When the insole is deposited in the cycling shoe and abuts the sole, and the user's foot wears the cycling shoe and the weight of the user's foot is applied on the insole and the sole of the cycling sole, since the material of the insole is softer than the material of the sole to enable the insole to deform, and the weight of the user's foot is pressed on the insole, and the insole completely abuts the user's foot and the sole without forming any interspaces between the user's foot and the sole.

Abstract: A foot supporting structure of cycling shoes with improved ergonomics is disclosed. The structure comprises a heel portion, having a first concave curved surface corresponding to and suitable for a heel of one human foot; an arch portion, connected with the heel portion with a first end thereof and having a first convex curved surface corresponding to and suitable for an arch of the foot; a metatarsus portion, connected with a second end of the arch portion opposite to the first end of the arch portion with a first end thereof and having a second concave curved surface corresponding to and suitable for a metatarsus of the foot; and a toe portion, connected with a second end of the metatarsus portion opposite to the first end thereof and having a second convex curved surface corresponding to and suitable for a location between the metatarsus and each toe of the foot.

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for visual drive control, a set of flickering images that flicker at the same flicker frequency and that are associated with mutually distinct flicker patterns are simultaneously presented for viewing by an observer. Thereafter, evoked signals produced in the observer's brain are captured, and the flicker pattern having a greatest similarity with the captured evoked signals is determined. Finally, a control signal corresponding to the flicker pattern having the greatest similarity is generated.

The backup of the modified contents of the client data storage medium is stored in the server data storage medium without overwriting the backups made as a result of previous backup operations.

Abstract: In a partitioning method for a data storage medium of an electronic device, the storage space of the data storage medium is configured with a number of virtual partitioned areas, each of which is adapted for storing files of a dedicated user. Each of the virtual partitioned areas only appears as a file name in a system region of the storage space, and does not occupy memory space when data is yet to be stored therein. During each data storing operation for one of the virtual partitioned areas, data that is associated with the data storing operation is stored in free portions of the storage space, and a corresponding entry is added to an address record table for the virtual partitioned area to indicate location of the data that is associated with the data storing operation.
