The control circuit of the buckle is configured to control the output power of the flexible battery unit so that the wearable battery set is able to provide the output power to an electronic device via the control circuit of the buckle.

A device for holding a badge and an identification card includes a first strip of material constructed of leather. The first strip of material is shaped to include first and second generally oval-shaped portions which are connected through a neck. The first portion is shaped to include a pair of openings through which the badge can be pinned. A second strip of material constructed of leather is sewn onto the first strip of material along three sides so as to define a generally rectangular-shaped pocket for receiving the identification card, the first strip of material being shaped to include a centered window to display the identification card when disposed within the pocket. The first strip of material can be folded about the neck to form a closed loop. A pair of complementary fasteners are mounted onto the first strip of material to retain the device in its closed loop configuration.

There is provided a walking assistance device equipped with an assisting force generator disposed on a side of each of a hip joint and a knee joint, comprising: a hip support member (1) having an attachment means (hip drive source mount 9) capable of repeatedly attaching and detaching a hip joint assisting force generator (hip joint actuator 10); a lower leg support member (2) having an attachment means (knee drive source mount 27) capable of repeatedly attaching and detaching a knee joint assisting force generator (knee joint actuator 26); and a drive unit (3) formed by integrally joining the hip joint assisting force generator and the knee joint assisting force generator via a link bar (25), wherein after the hip support member and the lower leg support member are fitted on a user's body, the assisting force generators of the drive unit are connected to the corresponding attachment means.

The present invention is helpful in improving stability of repeated measurement and can be applied with high reliability for operations of devices for measurement based on brain functions. A module 801 (a sampler) receives measurement data at each of the measuring points based on information of cerebral blood amount sent from an input unit. The information data accumulated in this sampler are processed by filtering at a secondary agent 803 and a tertiary agent 804 and are analyzed. The synthesizer 802 integrates output information of each agent by weighted linear sum and transmits the data as an output data 602 to the device and operates the device.
