A karaoke apparatus includes a sound effect processing system provided in a microprocessor. The system decodes standard song data from an internal storage or an external storage connected to an extended system interface by a song decoding module; corrects pitches of sing voices by a pitch correcting system, so the pitches of the singing voices are corrected to the pitches of the standard song or close to the pitches of the standard song. The singing voices are processed with harmony adding, tonal modification and speed-changing by a harmony adding system to produce an effect of chorus being composed of three voice parts. A pitch evaluating system is used for comparing the pitch sequence of the singing voices with the pitch sequence of the standard song to draw a voice graph so as to visually show a difference between the pitches of the singing voices and the pitches of the standard song, while providing score and comment of the singing voices. Therefore, a singer can be aware of the effect of his/her performance to immediately so as to increase the amusement in a karaoke singing.

A compact wheelchair lift mechanism utilizes a horizontal actuator to advance the vehicle doors outwardly away from the side of the vehicle together with a wheelchair user supported by a platform, and a vertical actuator which then lowers the platform with the wheelchair and user downwardly between the doors and vehicle. With the platform on the ground next to the vehicle, the user may then roll forward and away from the vehicle. The vehicle doors are also pivotably attached to the lift mechanism, such that a user may exit the vehicle by simply opening the vehicle door about its traditional door hinge, and therefore without powering the actuators. In this way, the wheel chair lift mechanism provides for safe and easy exit from the vehicle even if electrical power is lost, and facilitates use of the vehicle by both wheelchair-using drivers and drivers who do not use a wheelchair.

It is intended to provide a soybean protein material which is excellent in solubility, stability, emulsifying properties and gel-forming properties under acidic conditions and thus advantageously usable in acidic foods, its production process, and acidic foods using the soybean protein material. A solution containing soybean protein is subjected to a treatment for eliminating or inactivating polyanionic substances contained therein and/or adding a polycationic substance and then heated at above 100° C. under acidic conditions. Thus, a soybean protein having a high solubility under acidic conditions and thus being appropriately usable in acidic foods can be obtained. By using this protein, protein foods in an acidic region can be provided. Further, by combining the above-described treatment with a protease-digestion treatment, a soybean protein hydrolysate having a high solubility in an acidic region can be efficiently obtained.

This present invention relates to an all-rounded illumination enveloped fluorescent lamp. The light translucent materials used for lamp carrier disk fixing lamp tube, segregation board segregating wires, ballast circuit board and rear housing enables light emitted by the lamp tube to penetrate through the rear housing via the lamp carrier disk, segregation board and circuit board, thus causing the whole lamp body to illuminate as the lamp is turned on. Furthermore, the rear housing, which is made of PC plastic with proper amount of colour powder added, provides good light transmission property but is not transparent, thus shielding the ballast so that the appearance of lamp is beautiful. No darkness zone is formed when in use. The lamp thus provides an advantageous aesthetic quality and illumination effect. The light transmission amount of the rear housing is increased further by setting the circuit board perpendicularly to the lamp carrier disk or by adjusting the circuit board to be smaller than the bottom projection of lamp tube. The combination of a compact lamp tube and ballast made by surface mount technology with small dimension components and surface mount components allows the inner space to be used fully and reduces the length and diameter of the whole lamp efficiently by mounting part of the components into the inner space of the lamp base.
