A portable terminal device of the invention has a first casing that has a first display part and a second casing that has a key operation part. The first casing and the second casing are constructed in such a form as to be rotatable around a hinge portion, which has a second display part. In a state where the terminal device is open, the first display part is visually recognizable by the user, and in a state where the terminal device is closed, the second display part is visually recognizable by the user.

The invention is a radiation curable coating containing an antimicrobial agent, where upon irradiation with UV light, the radiation curable coating rapidly cures to a polymeric coating. The polymeric coating has durable antimicrobial properties, being especially effective at preventing the growth of Staphylococcus aureaus and Kleibsella pneumoniae on wood flooring and furniture. The major components in the radiation curable coating are a urethane acrylic oligomer, a radiation cure package, an antimicrobial agent, a cross-linking agent, and optionally, an additive package. The radiation curable urethane oligomer is a relatively short chain backbone urethane polymer that is end capped with a radiation curable moiety, where the moiety is an acrylic. The cross-linking agent is one or more monomers used to lower the viscosity and promote cross-linking, and include acrylate esters of mono-, di-, tri-, or tetrafunctional alcohols. The radiation cure package contains at least one photoinitiator.

The invention is a protective cover for a buckle, for protecting a vehicle from the buckle, which may be used with a strap to secure loads such as kayaks, rafts, and canoes to the vehicle roof. The buckle and its attached strap can be inserted into the protective cover, and can later be removed from the protective strap if desired. The release lever of the buckle is covered by the protective cover, and is depressed by pressing down on a portion of the protective cover.

A protective sheath comprises a rear plate, a front plate and a wireless HMI device comprising a main portion embedded inside the rear plate, a human-machine interface embedded inside the front plate and a soft flat cable electrically connecting there-between. The front plate comprises a first folding plate, a holding component for holding a portable electronic device on the first folding plate, a position limiting hinge, and a second folding plate pivoted to the first folding plate via the position limiting hinge. Hence, the first and the second folding plates can cover a rear surface of the portable electronic device together by being relatively unfolded, and are maintained at a presetting pivoting angle by the position limiting hinge after being relatively folded. The front plate can be folded relative to the first folding plate to cover a display surface of the portable electronic device.

A method and structure for protecting a flowable oxide insulator in a semiconductor by oxidizing sidewalls of the FOX insulator, optionally nitridizing the oxidized FOX sidewalls, and then covering all surfaces of a trough or plurality of troughs in the FOX insulator, including the sidewalls, with a conductive secondary protective layer. In a multiple layer damascene structure, the surface of the FOX insulator is also oxidized, an additional oxide layer is deposited thereon, and a nitride layer deposited on the oxide layer. Then steps are repeated to obtain a comparable damascene structure. The materials can vary and each damascene layer may be either a single damascene or a dual damascene layer.
