A solid electrolyte structure (1) for all-solid-state batteries includes a plate-like dense body (2) formed of a ceramic that includes a solid electrolyte, and a porous layer (3) formed of a ceramic that includes a solid electrolyte that is the same as or different from the solid electrolyte of the dense body (2), the porous layer (3) being integrally formed on at least one surface of the dense body (2) by firing. The solid electrolyte structure can reduce the contact resistance at the interface between the solid electrolyte and an electrode.

A tap for dispensing fluid from a vessel includes a main tap body, an actuator, and a seal member. The main tap body includes a passage with an inlet and an outlet and a seat with a shoulder formed around the outlet. The actuator has a handled and is pivotally attached to the main tap body and dispenses fluid from the vessel upon activation of the handle by a user. The seal member is received within the seat and attached to the actuator. The seal member includes a retaining portion received against the shoulder of the seat and a sealing portion which is releasably engageable with the seat. The seal member is resilient to provide a bias force to urge the sealing portion against the seat. The actuator is pivotal between a closed position in which the sealing portion is biased against the seat, thereby preventing fluid from passing through the outlet, and an opened position in which at least a portion of the sealing portion is pulled away from the seat against the bias force, thereby allowing fluid to flow through the outlet.

[Problem] To provide a polyethylene container which enables a non-oily viscous content such as ketchup or the like to favorably run down when the container is inverted.

[Means for Solution] A polyethylene container having at least a polyethylene resin layer on the inner surface thereof, wherein the polyethylene resin layer on the inner surface of the container contains an aliphatic amide in an amount of not less than 500 ppm but less than 4000 ppm.

A device having an electric antenna and a magnetic antenna is described, the antennas being spatially arranged in immediate mutual proximity. The electric antenna has at least one current-carrying electric conductor which acts as a resonator for the electric antenna, while the magnetic antenna has a coil with at least one current-carrying conductor loop which acts as an inductor of the magnetic antenna. Thus the electric antenna and the magnetic antenna are spatially arranged relative to each other such that the direction of the current in the electric conductor of the electric antenna extends substantially at right angles to the direction of the current in the conductor loop of the magnetic antenna.

A double belt has an outer narrow belt completely encircling and extending over and attached to the ends of an inner wider belt. The outer belt adjustably attaches to a quick release buckle at the ends to create an adjustable inner belt attachable to a body of a user or tree or other object. The outer belt has another quick release buckle in the portion overlapping the inner belt. A fabric loop with two metal rings encircling the outer belt attaches through the end loop or handle of any leash to ride on the rings around the outer belt.

There is provided a light distribution control member with a plurality of first prisms that have inclined surfaces of which each edge of a hexagon is a base edge, and a plurality of second prisms that have inclined surfaces of which each edge of a triangle is a base edge. The first prisms are arranged in a houndstooth pattern, and the second prisms are arranged in areas surrounded by three first prisms.

The present invention relates to a structure having a characteristic of conducting or absorbing electromagnetic waves, which comprises a substrate; a powder material convex structure section having a characteristic of conducting or absorbing electromagnetic waves disposed on a surface of the substrate, the powder material convex structure section containing a powder material having a characteristic of conducting or absorbing electromagnetic waves and being formed so as to have a convex structure; and a holding part disposed on a surface of the substrate, the holding part holding the convex structure of the powder material convex structure section having a characteristic of conducting or absorbing electromagnetic waves. The structure of the invention has the characteristic of conducting or absorbing electromagnetic waves at an excellent level and can be produced easily and inexpensively.

The invention relates to a closing system comprising handles (20) for operating latches that are inoperative when in a locked position, and only enable the latch to open when the latch is in an unlocked position. In conjunction with an access authorization device, the approaching of a hand to the handle (20) can be sensed in advance by a capacitive sensor thus enabling a very early reversing of the latch into the respectively desired position. To this end, two electrodes (51, 52) are integrated inside the handle (20), and a shielding (53) is located between these electrodes. One electrode (51) generates an inner field (50) between the handle (20) and the vehicle (10) and, with the vehicle body, acts as a capacitive inner sensor. The other electrode (52),however, generates an outer field (60) with regard to the surrounding area of the vehicle. When, during normal use of the handle (20), the hand passes into the area of the inner field (50), a first function in the latch or vehicle is carried out. In contrast, when the hand is brought towards the handle (20) from the outside, the dielectric properties in the outer field (60) are altered thereby leading to a second function in the latch or vehicle.

The present invention refers to an external container (1) for an implant carrier (20), comprising a cylindrical body portion (10) and a lid (50) closing the cylindrical body portion (10), the lid (50) being provided with a truncated cone-like element (74) which protrudes into the cylindrical body portion (10) and has on its surface at least one annular means (73) for fixing an implant carrier (20) into place which is adapted such as to fix the implant carrier (20) releasably into place in a stable position in the center of the interior of the cylindrical body portion (10).

A lightweight, shock-absorbing package for carrying, shipping or mailing fragile articles is provided that is formed from a relatively stiff substantially flat sheet having front and back faces. The flat sheet has two fold lines disposed proximal to a centerline of the sheet, the fold lines dividing the flat sheet into a first section, a spine section, and a second section. The package includes at least one shock-absorbing resilient member made of lightweight, flexible material and attached proximal to three edges of the back face of the second section, one of the edges being opposite from and two being perpendicular to an edge of the spine section, of sufficient length to completely close the three open edges of a closed rectangular package formed when the flat sheet is folded back along its two fold lines to bring the back face of the first and second sections into a facing arrangement. A package composed of a resilient member that is glued or shrink-wrapped between two flat sheets is also provided.

A dosimeter (102, 300, 400, 500, 608, 610) for measuring radiation dosage to a subject (100, 604) during a magnetic resonance imaging guided radiation therapy session, the dosimeter comprising: an outer surface (106, 306, 308, 406, 408, 410, 412) adapted for receiving a surface (609, 611) of the subject, and discrete cells (302, 402, 512) each filled with a magnetic resonance radiation dosimeter.

An elevator conveyor belt (10) with adjustable slope, suitable for moving semi-finished or finished products on different levels along production lines, includes a supporting and stiffening frame (12) divided in at least two adjacent sections defined by a horizontal section (14) or load section arranged according to a horizontal plane and by an elevator section (16) arranged according to a sloped plane and a belt (28) tensioned between an opposed head end of the horizontal section (14) and a tail end of the elevator section (16) and slidably actuated by an electrical motor (25), the horizontal or load section (14) and the elevator section (16) being reciprocally hinged by a hinged connection (13) including mobile elements suitable for ensuring a constant tensioning of the belt (28) with the change of the reciprocal slope between the sections.
