A content distribution is performed by a secure container including a content encrypted by a content key and container information set for a content transaction. The container information includes a person identification certificate identifiers list. Usage control status information including the list is generated and stored in a device during a secondary distribution among user devices after a primary distribution of the content. In the distribution among the user devices, identifying an identification certificate in reference to the list and performing a person authentication based on the identification certificate allows each of the user devices to use the transmitted content, when the authentication is affirmative.

A method for generating at least one section of a virtual 3D model of a body interior, in particular a hollow organ, uses data that are provided by at least one endoscope introduced into the body interior. The data comprise at least one position and orientation of the endoscope, the at least one position and orientation being assigned at least one distance between the endoscope and the at least one point on a surface of the body interior, and at least one endoscopic image of the surface of the body interior in the region of the at least one point on the surface of the body interior. From the said data relating to a number of different positions and orientations of the endoscope is / are generated the section or sections of the 3D model in superposition with the associated endoscopic image. An appropriate apparatus is also described.

Electric lamp with a base at one end, having an inner vessel surrounded by an outer jacket, a base with electric connections supporting the inner vessel and the outer jacket, having the following features:a) the base has a base insulator with a central opening with a surrounding collar in which the inner vessel is held without cement;b) the base insulator has a circular, radially projecting segment with an associated upper and lower plateau with reference to the base;c) the outer jacket has a circular opening on the base side with a radially projecting edge that has an upper and lower contact surface with reference to the base, the lower contact surface of the edge being compatible with the upper plateau of the circular, radially projecting segment at the base insulator; andd) the outer jacket is fastened on the base by a cementless mechanical holding mechanism.

The drag mechanism includes a friction disk, a cover member, a brake disk, and a drag adjusting mechanism. The friction disk is in a storage space of a first flange portion of a spool and has an engaging recess formed in an external circumferential surface. The cover member has a cylindrical portion that fits into an internal circumferential surface of the storage space, an engaging protrusion on a distal end surface of the cylindrical portion to engage with the engaging recess, and a protruding portion that mate closely with an end face of the first flange portion. The cover member is fixed to the first flange portion and covers the storage space from the outside. The brake disk is arranged in the storage space facing opposite the friction disk and constructed not to rotate in a line reel-out direction. The cam mechanism is designed to move the friction disk and the spool together along an axial direction of the spool with respect to the brake disk such that the friction disk is pressed against the brake disk.

A gas sensor is disclosed having an element holder body with which a sensor element is fixedly supported, and an atmosphere-side insulator covering a base portion of the sensor element and providing electrical connection between lead wires and terminal electrodes of the sensor element. The element holder body includes a housing and an element-side insulator fixedly mounted in the housing. The atmosphere-side insulator incorporates therein a plurality of spring terminals held in electrical contact with the electrode terminals of the sensor element. At least one of the element holder body and the atmosphere-side insulator carries thereon convexed portions with which the atmosphere-side insulator can tilt with respect to the element holder body.

A control device switches an engine between normal operation mode and special operation mode. In the normal operation mode, an independent cylinder configuration is formed to produce combustion independently in individual cylinders. In the special operation mode, a two-cylinder interconnect configuration is formed so that burned gas discharged from preceding cylinders currently in an exhaust stroke is introduced into following cylinders currently in an intake stroke through intercylinder gas channels, a lean mixture having a high air-fuel ratio is combusted in the preceding cylinders, and a mixture produced by supplying fuel to the burned gas is combusted in the following cylinders. When the engine is switched between the special operation mode and the normal operation mode, the control device selects transitional operation mode, in which the two-cylinder interconnect configuration is formed, and interrupts combustion in the preceding cylinders while producing combustion in the following cylinders by compression ignition.

A basketball backboard may include one or more weights disposed proximate the perimeter of the backboard in order to enhance the rebounding characteristics of the backboard. In particular, a first weight may be positioned proximate a first side of the backboard and a second weight may be positioned proximate a second side of the backboard in order to enhance the rebounding characteristics of the backboard. Advantageously, the weights may be positioned internally within the backboard or the weights may be positioned externally to the backboard. In addition, the weights may be selectively or permanently attached to the backboard, and the weights may also be sized and configured to increase the rigidity of the basketball backboard.

An emergency cardiac and electrocardiogram (ECG) electrode placement device is disclosed herein. The emergency cardiac and electrocardiogram (ECG) electrode placement device incorporates electrical conducting materials and elastic material into a pad that is applied to a chest wall of a patient, which places multiple electrodes in the appropriate anatomic locations on the patient to quickly obtain an ECG in a pre-hospital setting.

An imaging apparatus may include an infrared cutoff filter capable of being inserted into and extracted from an incident light path to an image sensing device, and may further include a first detecting unit configured to, when the infrared cutoff filter is off the incident light path to the image sensing device, detect whether the difference between current illuminance of a subject acquired from an image signal of the subject sensed by the image sensing device and a reference value of the illuminance of the subject determined after the infrared cutoff filter was extracted is equal to or greater than a first threshold value, and a filter control unit configured to, when the first detecting unit detects that the difference between the current illuminance and the reference value is equal to or greater than the first threshold value, insert the infrared cutoff filter into the incident light path.

The invention pertains to a method and apparatus for producing cases with rounded corners. According to this method, the corner edge (10) that protrudes in the region of a rounded corner (9) is initially uprighted and turned over and subsequently pressed on the cover boards (7a, b, c) together with the turning-over and pressing-on of the lateral edge (11a) of an adjacent lateral border, in the same station (1). The apparatus comprises at least one rounded corner tool (3) that is arranged in the same station (1) in the which the lateral edges (11a, b) of opposed lateral borders that lie parallel to one another are uprighted, turned over, and pressed on the cover. The rounded corner tool (3) can be moved (b) toward the center of the case and out of the effective range of the lateral turn-in device (24) immediately before the turning-over and pressing-on movement (c, d) of the lateral turn-in device (24).
