20110236900 | NOVEL MUTS PROTEIN AND METHOD FOR DETERMING MUTATION USING THE SAME - A method for determining the presence or absence of a mutation on the basis of the presence or absence of amplification with high reliability is provided. A target sequence including a target site contained in a sample nucleic acid is amplified using a primer that can hybridize to a region including the target site contained in the sample nucleic acid in the presence of a novel MutS having an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2, and then the presence or absence of a mutation at the target site is determined on the basis of the presence or absence of amplification. The novel MutS binds more specifically to a mismatched base pair than to a fully-matched base pair, whereby an extension reaction caused by a mismatch-binding primer is suppressed. Thus, according to the present invention, the presence or absence of a mutation can be determined with high reliability. | 09-29-2011 |

20110163122 | WATER SPOUTING DEVICE - In a second tank unit, a controller controls the on/off switching of a water supply solenoid valve so that water is stored in a sub tank within the level of Lu to Ll. At the same time, the controller controls the on/off switching of a pressurizing solenoid valve and a decompressing solenoid valve so that the air pressure in the upper space in the sub tank is maintained at a target value. As a result, regardless of the water level in the sub tank, the back pressure in the tank is maintained at the target value higher than atmospheric pressure. In this state, when a central controller turns on a water spouting solenoid valve, pressured water rapidly spouts from a nozzle. Moreover, a change in the target values of the back pressure promptly changes the height of the spouting water. Accordingly, water spouting can be promptly started/stopped, and the height or size of the spouting water can be readily and smoothly changed. | 07-07-2011 |

20100051395 | ELECTRIC DISK BRAKE - An object of the present invention is to provide an electric disk brake capable of determining an abnormality of a parking brake mechanism while the parking brake mechanism is in operation. A brake force is generated in the following manner. A rotation of an electric motor is slowed down by a differential speed reducing mechanism, and is converted into a linear motion by a ball ramp mechanism so as to advance a piston, which then presses a brake pad against a disk rotor to generate a brake force. A parking brake mechanism can lock a rotation of a rotor of the electric motor and maintain a braked state by rotating an engagement pawl through a plunger of a solenoid and causing the engagement pawl to be engaged with a ratchet wheel coupled to the rotor of the electric motor. A play is provided at a coupling portion of the engagement pawl and the plunger. The play enables the plunger to move within the range of the play while the engagement pawl is engaged with the ratchet wheel, thereby enabling determination whether the parking brake mechanism operates normally or abnormally based on whether the plunger moves or not upon application of an electric current to the solenoid while the parking brake mechanism is in an actuated state. | 03-04-2010 |
20110152027 | ELECTRONIC BOOSTER AND OPERATING FORCE TRANSMISSION DEVICE - In an electric booster according to one embodiment of the present invention, a brake pedal is connected to a sun gear of a differential transmission mechanism corresponding to a planetary gear mechanism. An electric motor is connected to a ring gear, and an output rod is connected to a planetary carrier, and the output rod is connected to a piston of a master cylinder. When the brake pedal is operated to rotate the sun gear, planetary pinions rotate and revolve around the sun gear. As a result, the planetary carrier rotates to move the output rod forward to push the piston. As a result, a hydraulic pressure is generated in the master cylinder. At this time, the electric motor is controlled according to the rotation of the sun gear to rotate the ring gear so that the ring gear follows the sun gear. In this manner, a servo force of the electric motor is applied to the rotation of the planetary carrier. | 06-23-2011 |
20120080275 | THRUST GENERATOR AND DISK BRAKE - A ball-and-ramp mechanism of a thrust generator includes a rotary ramp member and a rectilinear ramp member, each having a plurality of sloped grooves sloped along a circumferential direction and having an arcuate diametrical cross-section, and a spherical member interposed between the sloped grooves of the ramp members to transmit force from the rotary ramp member to the rectilinear ramp member. Each of the sloped grooves has regions varying in the curvature radius of the diametrical cross-section in a track area where the spherical member contacts the sloped groove. Accordingly, it is possible to improve the durability of the rotary ramp member and the rectilinear ramp member. | 04-05-2012 |
20120144823 | ELECTRIC MOTOR-DRIVEN BOOSTER - In normal braking, the operation of an electric motor is controlled according to the amount of operation of a brake pedal to drive a pressing member through a belt drive mechanism and a ball-screw mechanism, thereby pressing a piston to generate a fluid pressure in a master cylinder to obtain a braking force. A predetermined reaction force is applied to the brake pedal by a reaction force spring of a stroke simulator, and a gap is maintained between the pressing member and a movable member, thereby eliminating an uncomfortable feeling in a brake operation caused by fluid pressure variations in the master cylinder. When the electric motor fails, the movable member abuts against the pressing member and directly presses the piston to maintain the braking function. The rear end of the pressing member is inserted into a guide member and the reaction force spring to reduce the axial size. | 06-14-2012 |
20120193177 | ELECTRIC BRAKE APPARATUS - The present invention provides an electric brake apparatus capable of maintaining predetermined control accuracy despite wear of a brake pad and other changes over time.

20100101900 | ELECTRIC BRAKE - In an electric brake of the present invention, a plunger of an actuator is connected through a pin to a pivot arm to which an engaging pawl engageable with a tooth portion of a ratchet is pivotably attached. A lower surface (a force-receiving portion) of the pin is adapted to receive an upward force which is applied by a tool inserted through a bolt hole threadably engaged with a watertight bolt. When the parking brake is operated (the engaging pawl is engaged with the tooth portion of the ratchet), if supply of current to the coil becomes impossible, the pin is moved upward by means of the tool, to thereby separate the engaging pawl from the tooth portion. Therefore, an emergency action to release the parking brake can be manually conducted. | 04-29-2010 |
