Embodiments of methods and mandibular protruders and positioning devices, comprising, for example: an upper mounting bracket having an upper dental appliance; a lower mounting bracket having a lower dental appliance; and a rail system configured to couple the upper mounting bracket to the lower mounting bracket. Some embodiments comprise a drive motor and/or an initial position adjustment mechanism.

A multi-joint robot for loading/unloading a work into/from a cassette, which includes a hand part holding the work, an arm part rotatably holding the hand part, a link mechanism rotatably holding the base end side of the arm part and moving so that the moving route of the base end side of the arm part becomes linear in a direction roughly orthogonal to a direction for loading/unloading the work, and a driving device for moving the tip side of the arm part so as to linearly interpolate it in a direction for loading/unloading the work according to the movement of the link mechanism.

A calibration device for managing a variety of performance tests and/or calibration tasks in a laser scanning microscope. The calibration device, which has focusing optics and a test structure arranged in the focal plane of the focusing optics, with structural elements detectable in reflected and/or transmitted light aligned to each other in a common mounting, can be switched into the microscope beam path in a laser scanning microscope, so that the pupil of the focusing optics coincides with the objective pupil of the laser scanning microscope or lies in a plane conjugated to it.

There is provided a camera module including: a lens barrel including at least one lens disposed on an optical axis; a housing having the lens barrel disposed therein; and first and second elastic members elastically supporting upper and lower portions of the lens barrel, respectively, wherein the first and second elastic members include a fixed side coupled to the housing and a driving side coupled to the lens barrel, respectively, the fixed side and the driving side being disposed to face each other based on the optical axis.

A vehicle switch includes a magnet mounted to an operating unit accommodated in an external packaging such that the operating unit can move linearly. A magnetic detector is placed so as to receive different strength of the magnetism from the magnet in the two cases that the operating unit is at the upper limit position and at the lower limit position. A control circuit coupled to the magnetic detector opens and closes a switching device in response to strength of the detected magnetism.

A varifocal lens barrel includes a plurality of lens groups, each of which are linearly movable in the optical axis direction thereof without rotating about the optical axis during a zooming operation and during a focusing operation, including a base barrel which is linearly movable in the optical axis direction by rotation of a zoom operational ring, wherein lens frames of the respective lens groups are each supported by the base barrel.

A gear motor having a safety mechanism includes a motor body, a speed reduction mechanism, a transmission mechanism, and a touch switch. The speed reduction mechanism includes a worm and a worm wheel drivingly engaged with the worm. The transmission mechanism includes a base fixed to the speed reduction mechanism, a lead screw rod pivotally connected to the base and rotatably driven by the worm wheel, and a nut threadedly connected to the lead screw rod. The touch switch is electrically connected to the motor body and provided aside the lead screw rod, thereby stopping the motor body when the nut contacts the touch switch. Thus, the gear motor not only controls the operation of the driven mechanism, but also allows various driven mechanisms to be mounted thereon. The assembled volume of the gear motor and the driven mechanism is reduced.

A spooling apparatus (40) for spooling and regulating the pull of a rope (12) or a cable that shall be spooled onto or out from a winch drum (22), comprising a spooling sheave (42) onto which the rope (12) is guided before it is spooled onto the winch drum (22), where the spooling apparatus (40) comprises a linearly moving slide (44) and that the spooling sheave (42) is mounted in the slide (44) so that it can be tilted sideways. Also described is a system for the spooling in of a rope (12) or a cable that shall be spooled onto or out from a winch drum (22) comprising a winch (20) with said winch drum (22) and a traction unit (26) for the tension on the rope (12), and also a spooling apparatus (40).

In guide grooves formed at both side edges of a lower face of a tray and fitted to a pair of left and right guide members of a cabinet, the guide groove substantially in a U-like shape on one side is inserted with a front end portion of an elastic plate integrally projected at a front portion of the cabinet, a recess portion is formed at a portion of one side face of the guide groove 12 opposed to the elastic plate in a state of containing the tray into the cabinet, and formed such that by bringing the one side face of the guide groove 12 into elastic contact with the elastic plate opposed to the recess portion in moving the tray forward, other side face of the guide groove is brought into contact with reference guide faces of the guide member on one side to thereby prevent the tray from being inclined.

A cut-sheet feeder has a feed belt, a belt contact amount adjuster, and an inclined guide member. The belt makes contact with the lowermost cut sheet of a stack of cut sheets and feeds forward the cut sheet. The belt contact amount adjuster supports the stack of cut sheets while lifting the read portion thereof from the feed belt. The inclined guide member protrudes further upward than the belt contact amount adjuster and has a guide surface inclined forwardly downward. The guide surface lifts up the rear end portion of the stack of cut sheets and shifts forward the lowermost cut sheet. The position of the adjuster in the front-rear direction and the position of the guide member in the front-rear direction can be adjusted individually.

A ratchet tool comprises a base, a ratchet body, a switching member and a pawl member. The base has a rail and is movable with linear motion along the rail between a first position and a second position, the ratchet body has plural teeth, and the pawl member is engaged with the switching member and comprises plural ratchet teeth, a first abutting portion and a second abutting portion. When the switching member is movable to the first position, the pawl member is pivotally rotated to a third position to make the ratchet teeth mesh with the teeth and the first abutting portion abut against the base, therefore the ratchet body enables to rotate along a first rotation direction. When the switching member is movable to the second position, the pawl member is pivotally rotated to a fourth position to make the ratchet teeth mesh with the teeth and the second abutting portion abut against the base, therefore the ratchet body enables to rotate along a second rotation direction.
