An RF converter circuit 11 that constitutes a video signal superposing/power deriving unit 100 converts video signals generated from images taken by a surveillance camera 10, which derives a direct current voltage as a driving power from an antenna lead-in wire 6 through a filter circuit (LPF circuit 12), to radio-frequency signals. The radio-frequency signals are transmitted through the antenna lead-in wire 6 to a television receiver 2. Images taken by the surveillance camera 1 can be viewed on the television receiver 2 only by selecting the channel assigned to the surveillance camera 1. Accordingly, the driving power for the surveillance camera 1 is not relied upon a solar battery or secondary batteries, and wiring work therefor may be simplified.

An external electrode fluorescent lamp has external electrodes at opposite ends. The portions provided with the external electrodes are bent so that their axes are orthogonal to the axis of a light emitting sections. A conventional external electrode fluorescent lamp is not bent in its portions provided with external electrodes. Since the external electrodes of the external electrodes fluorescent lamps serve concurrently as holding sections for the fluorescent lamps the axial length is made greater than the outer diameter so as to provide sufficient strength. The width of the frame section of the fluorescent lamp of the invention when mounted on a backlight unit is smaller than the width of the frame section of conventional fluorescent lamp. Therefore, the effective light emitting area of the backlight unit can be enlarged.

The present invention relates to an implant-abutment comprising: a fixture, which is coupled to an alveolar bone and comprises on the inside thereof a female tapered part having a tapered shape; an abutment, which has one side comprising a male tapered part, which has a shape corresponding to the female tapered part so as to be coupled to the female tapered part in an engaging manner, and the other side having a prosthesis coupled thereto; and an elastic part provided between the female tapered part, and the male tapered part so as for the abutment to move between a locking position, in which the abutment stays coupled to the fixture and is inhibited from moving away from the alveolar bone, and a sinking position, in which the abutment moves and sinks toward the alveolar bone by the occlusal force of occluding teeth. Configured as such, the present invention allows slight movement under a predetermined external, force by the occlusal force of teeth while stably maintaining the state of being coupled to the fixture and allows the abutment to be separated and easily retrieved from the fixture, if necessary, by the application of an external force equal to or greater than a target coupling force whereby the fixture and abutment stay coupled.
