A quasi-kinematic coupling for mating components (mechanical parts, surfaces, assemblies and the like) employing mating sets of surface of revolution, (conical) grooves and cooperative surface of revolution (spherical/conical) protrusions for establishing six lines (not just prior points) of contact at the kinematic interfaces, and with elastic compliance therebetween and preferably with relief features to define the effective orientation as a clamping force seats the protrusions in the grooves and seals the component mating surfaces into contact.

A method, system and computer program product for resetting a phase change memory cell having a memory cell threshold voltage is disclosed. The method includes reading a resistance of the memory cell. If the resistance is larger than a chosen resistance, the resetting of the memory cell ends. Otherwise, the method proceeds by applying a voltage, larger than the memory cell threshold voltage, to the bit line, and applying a voltage V_WL, larger than the access device threshold voltage, to the word line. The resistance of the memory cell is again read. If the resistance is larger than the chosen resistance, the resetting of the memory cell ends. Otherwise, the method proceeds by applying a voltage, larger than the memory cell threshold voltage, to the bit line, increasing voltage V_WL by a voltage ΔV and applying the increased voltage V_WL to the word line.

The present invention can provide particles for electro-rheological fluid for providing a high electro-rheological effect over a wide temperature range at low electric power consumption, and having high strength and excellent durability, not being susceptible to break-up due to the load of stress. Particles for an electro-rheological fluid of the present invention comprise spherical carbonaceous particles, obtained substantially from a solvent and a condensation product of a methylene type bond of aromatic sulfonic acid or a salt thereof.

An addressing mechanism for charging and discharging quasi-capacitive elements in an X-Y matrix. The addressing mechanism may be configured to toggle a resistor-capacitor (RC) time constant between large and small values such as by opening or closing a circuit path to a low impedance resistor disposed in parallel with a higher impedance in-line resistor. When this occurs, elements in the X-Y matrix can be addressed and controlled. The X-Y matrix may be comprised of multiple “rows” and “columns” of conductors where crosstalk may occur along the columns and rows. Crosstalk may be curtailed by using either hysteresis management or global control of the row's impedance along its entire length. The resulting control obviates the need for active devices at each matrix element to perform the switching functions.

A rack shaft support device includes: a rack shaft support member that is accommodated inside a retention hole formed in a housing so as to slide in an axial direction of the retention hole, and slidably supports a rack shaft; a sealing member fixed to an inlet port of the retention hole; an intermediate member that is interposed between the rack shaft support member and the sealing member; a torsion spring that couples the sealing member and the intermediate member; a cam mechanism that converts a rotational force of the intermediate member induced by untwisting of the torsion spring to a force by which the intermediate member pushes the rack shaft support member; an opposing portion that opposes a rear surface of the rack shaft support member; and an annular elastic member that is interposed between the rear surface of the rack shaft support member and the opposing portion.

A device to establish a connection of portions of a broken bone includes a base body adapted to receive a bone nail. A clamping holder has a receptacle to receive a fixation rod. A bearing element mounts the clamping holder on the base body for spherically displacement. A tensioning rod connection has a tensioning rod on which the base body, the clamping holder and the bearing element are arrangeable in a row for tensioning relative to each other. In a first connection state the tensioning rod connection is released so that the fixation rod and base body are adjustable relative to each other. In a second connection state there is sufficient closing tension in the tensioning rod connection to form a stable non-positive locking connection between the fixation rod and the base body. The clamping holder and the bearing element are in positive engagement in the first connection state with the tensioning rod passing through a through-opening of the clamping holder with sufficient play for spatial guiding in all directions.
