It is an object to provide a thin-type full-color display device with the long lifetime, inexpensively, in which desired emission luminance and desired color purity can be obtained at a low voltage. In a light-emitting device capable of full-color display, among a plurality of light-emitting elements emitting different emission colors (for example, colors of red (R), green (G), and blue (B)), at least one of the light-emitting elements of an emission color is a light-emitting element including an organic compound (an organic EL element), and the other light-emitting element of an emission color is a light-emitting element using an inorganic material as a light-emitting layer or a fluorescent layer (an inorganic EL element). It is to be noted that the organic EL element and the inorganic EL element are formed over the same substrate.

A data multi-hop sensing and threat detecting network, including modular sensor devices, smart plug and portable sensor devices, and low power sub-sensor devices. A determination is made to alert when a sensed value is either (1) greater than a predetermined upper threshold value or the running average baseline value (whichever is greater) plus the upper fluctuation buffer value, or (2) less than a predetermined lower threshold value or the running average baseline value (whichever is less) less the lower fluctuation buffer value. The running average baseline is smoothed by applying large number numerology to the sensed values.

A flow cytometry system is disclosed for oscillating the exterior of a flow cytometer nozzle. Oscillating the exterior of a flow cytometer nozzle at selected oscillations or a sweeping range of oscillations disintegrates particles and gas entrapped within the flow cytometer nozzle. Adherents absorbed to the exterior of the flow cytometer nozzle may also be removed. An energy source (1) serves to generate a selected oscillation or range of oscillations. The energy source (1) is connected to a flexible transfer element (2) which conducts the electrical signals to an oscillation system (3). The oscillation system (3) turns the electrical energy from the energy source (1) into mechanical oscillations and is connected to a portable device (4) which disintegrates particles, dislocates gas within the flow cytometer nozzle and cleans the exterior of the flow cytometer aperture.

A display rack assembly for the display of product packages, with provisions for pushing packages toward the front of the display as individual packages are removed. The assembly includes a support base for supporting the packages and slidably mounting a spring-urged pusher. The pusher has front and back panels, with the back panel being joined along its upper edge to the back of the front panel, and the respective bottom edges being spaced apart in the front to back direction. A generally flat, front extension panel is removably attached to the front pusher panel to extend its dimensions upwardly or laterally, or both. This enables a standardized display rack to be easily adapted for tall and / or wide packages, as well as packages of smaller sizes. Interchangeable extension panels also can be provided with product advertising, specific to the product being displayed, which can be replaced or interchanged when a new product is displayed.

The invention provides an efficient inspection method for inspecting a hermetically sealed package for pinholes, in which when a hermetically sealed package whose contents such as electrically conductive fluid or food are covered with an electrically insulating film is inspected for pinholes by using a high voltage, the inspection can be achieved with an extremely simple procedure while fully preventing occurrence of misoperations due to the atmosphere such as humidity during the inspection.In a hermetically sealed package in which contents 1 such as electrically conductive fluid are covered with an electrically insulating film 2, an electrical conductor 4 derived from a voltage output terminal of a DC high voltage power supply 6 is put into contact with or proximity to a side face portion 31 of the hermetically sealed package, by which the contents 1 in the hermetically sealed package 3 are electrified. Next, a lead wire 8 is connected to a connecting terminal 5a of an electrode 5 put into close contact with or opposed proximity to an inspection-object portion 3a of the package 3 where pinholes are most likely to occur, and the lead wire 8 is grounded. Then, a discharge current derived from the inspection-object portion 3a that flows only when a pinhole is present is detected by a discharge current detector 7, by which the presence or absence of a pinhole is detected depending on the presence or absence of the discharge current. In this procedure, the inspection can be made by placing the package on a support electrode derived from an AC high voltage power supply and electrifying the contents.
