Abstract: In order to provide a device for thawing a preserved vitrified germ cell and a method for thawing the preserved vitrified germ cell, both of which device and method are capable of simultaneously achieving a high conception rate and an easier transfer operation, a thawing device (1) includes a carrying device (8), a tube (5), and a cold storage device (6), the tube (5) including, inside the tube (5), (i) a germ cell containing region (10) containing the carrying device (8), and being covered by the cold storage device (6), and (ii) a thawing solution containing region (11) containing a thawing solution, and the carrying device (8) coming in contact with the thawing solution which has been melted.

Abstract: A terminal receives a shape input that sequentially designates a predetermined number of player characters to form a predetermined shape, and forms the predetermined shape based on the shape input. When an enemy character is present within an area defined by the formed shape, the terminal performs a process that causes the designated player characters to attack the enemy character.

Abstract: A connector is electrically connected to a substrate in which a conductor pattern and electrodes at ends of the conductor pattern are provided on a surface of the substrate. The connector includes a plurality of contacts that are resiliently connectable to the electrodes of the substrate inserted in the connector. An insulator member contains the contacts arrayed therein. A slider unit is movably attached to the insulator member, the slider unit including a plurality of lugs that are connectable to respective edges of the contacts contained in the insulator member.

Abstract: The present invention provides a connector that can adjust the strength of the connection between the pins of a plug and the contacts of a jack by converting the horizontal motion of a member integrated into the jack or the plug into the vertical motion of an actuator disposed so as to adjust the strength of the contact between the pins and the contacts, thereby eliminating the need for a connector tool to accomplish the adjustment and thus both reducing the load surface area of the connector and eliminating the need for space in which to insert and remove plugs.
