20090094906 | SEISMIC ISOLATION APPARATUS AND STRUCTURE HAVING SEISMIC ISOLATION APPARATUS - To provide a seismic isolation apparatus which, as well as widening an applicable shaking range, can be easily configured and is low in height, a seismic isolation apparatus is configured of a low friction combination formed by a point contact between a planar hard plate base, which has a surface on which are disposed at least three convexly curved projections of a uniform height, and a glide plate which is a smooth, hard, flat plate. | 04-16-2009 |
20110289863 | SEISMIC ISOLATION APPARATUS AND STRUCTURE HAVING SEISMIC ISOLATION APPARATUS - To provide a seismic isolation apparatus which, as well as widening an applicable shaking range, can be easily configured and is low in height, a seismic isolation apparatus is configured of a low friction combination formed by a point contact between a planar hard base plate, which has a surface on which are disposed at least three convexly curved projections of a uniform height, and a glide plate which is a smooth, hard, flat plate. | 12-01-2011 |
20110311994 | AVIAN VACCINES POSSESSING A POSITIVE MARKER GENE - The present invention provides a poultry vaccine containing a positive marker gene. More specifically, recombinant turkey herpesvirus modified by the presence of an extraneous antigen gene that may be used as a positive marker to identify and track vaccinated animals is provided. When inoculated into host animals, a poultry vaccine comprising the recombinant turkey herpesvirus provided in the present invention can elicit serological immune responses to the marker gene product that may be detected by serological assays such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and serum agglutination test, thus enabling easy identification and tracking of vaccinated animals. | 12-22-2011 |
20120305356 | SEISMIC ISOLATION DEVICE - A seismic isolation device includes a tabular base board having curved convex protrusions and a smooth sliding plate placed in such a way that a sliding contact surface thereof is made to abut the curved convex protrusions of the base board. An apparent friction coefficient (μ) of only a high-friction portion on a sliding contact surface of the sliding plate with which the curved convex protrusion of the base board is in contact at rest initially is made higher than the apparent friction coefficient of a sliding surface as a portion other than the high-friction portion. Accordingly, the seismic isolation device is not swayed by minor vibrations such as mechanical vibrations, automobile traffic vibrations, and minor earthquakes, and the base board and the sliding plate are enabled when an earthquake of a seismic intensity of 5 or more occurs. | 12-06-2012 |
20130017426 | Battery Holding DeviceAANM Yahagi; HiroakiAACI TokyoAACO JPAAGP Yahagi; Hiroaki Tokyo JPAANM Sato; TakanoriAACI TokyoAACO JPAAGP Sato; Takanori Tokyo JP - A battery holding device includes: a battery housing portion which is adapted to house a battery; and a conductive terminal which is disposed in a sidewall portion of the battery housing portion, and which is to be in contact with an electrode terminal of the battery. The sidewall portion of the battery housing portion is formed with: a first cutout that is formed along a first direction; and a second cutout that is formed along a second direction different from the first direction and that communicates with the first direction. | 01-17-2013 |
20140298751 | METHOD OF INSTALLING SEISMIC ISOLATION FLOOR - A method of installing a base isolation floor includes a base arrangement process for installing a plurality of plate-shaped bases, which are formed so that a plurality of upward convex curved surface portions are aligned on an upper surface, on double-sided tapes applied onto an upper surface of a floor over a plurality of columns to be substantially parallel to each other and thereby arranging the bases on the upper surface of the floor and a slide plate installation process for installing a plurality of plate-shaped slide plates having a substantially flat lower surface on the base. | 10-09-2014 |
20150184753 | Mechanical Seal - A mechanical seal having a seal cover that has a high versatility and is less prone to deformation even when secured to a housing by two bolts is provided. A mechanical seal | 07-02-2015 |
20150213103 | COMPUTER SYSTEM AND ASYNCHRONOUS REPLICATION MANAGEMENT METHOD - A primary storage system receives, from a host computer, indivisible data which is a group of data indivisible for maintaining consistency and generated in the host computer by executing an application, stores the received indivisible data, transmits a plurality of journals each including a plurality of data pieces generated by dividing the indivisible data into predetermined sizes, to a secondary storage system, and transmits, to a management computer, journal information representing that each of the plurality of journals has been transmitted. The management computer receives the journal information from the primary storage system, determines, based on the journal information, whether all the journals corresponding to the indivisible data have been transmitted to the secondary storage system, and, if a determination result is true, stores a time point when all the journals corresponding to the indivisible data have been transmitted as a data recoverable time point indicating a time point when recoverable data of the indivisible data is stored. | 07-30-2015 |
