Semiconductor integrated circuit and position detector
A semiconductor integrated circuit includes a regulator configured to stabilize a power supply voltage from a solar cell and to output the same, a voltage detection circuit configured to detect the power supply voltage from the solar cell or an output voltage from the regulator, a power-on-reset circuit configured to output a reset signal to an external digital circuit by a voltage detection signal output from the voltage detection circuit, a memory main body configured to write and read data by the power supply voltage from the solar cell or the output voltage from the regulator.
Vehicle wheel alignment device
A wheel alignment apparatus for measuring the toe angle of a wheel of a vehicle including an adjustable housing, a scale slider including one or more measurement scales, and a centering marker, and a toe positioning pin projecting from an end of the adjustable housing, the toe positioning pin configured to be rigidly connected to the adjustable housing during operation of the wheel alignment apparatus, wherein the scale slider is adjustable to a plurality of positions within the housing.
Instrument for measuring dimensions equipped with an interface and corresponding interface
Electronic measuring instrument equipped with a removable intelligent processing and radio communication interface. The interface allows managing additional features such as bidirectional communication of commands and measurement data with printers, computers or other external devices, as well as the transmission of instructions or measurement programs to the instrument. The radio interface may be connected with several measuring instruments such as callipers, micrometers, comparators or height gauges. It is integrated into the lid of the battery compartment of the instrument, so that it can be installed and removed easily and without impairing the seal. The cover also includes an extra battery for the processing and radio transmission interface.
TARED CALIPER
Tared Caliper consists of the measuring bar with fixed jaw, moving frame with the measuring indicator and with the moving jaw, attached to the accurate feed mechanism. Measurement calibrated effort device, which ensures the optimal effort during the measurements with the vernier caliper measurements, is arranged between the moving frame and accurate feed mechanism.

HEADLAMP AIMING TOOL AND METHOD
A headlamp aiming tool includes a linear member and four legs, the first of which is connected with one end of the member and the second, third and fourth of which are adjustable relative to the linear member. The first and second legs of the tool are used to measure the distance between the headlamps of a vehicle and the height of the headlamps relative to the ground or floor. The tool may also be mounted on the vehicle via the first and second legs and a fastener connected with the third leg arranged between first and second legs. Lastly, the tool includes a laser device connected with the fourth leg which is also between the first and second legs. The laser device can be aligned with a centerline of the vehicle to direct a laser beam against a screen in front of the vehicle to indicate the vehicle centerline on the screen. The headlamp light and spacing measurements are used to provide headlamp center points on the screen and to determine the horizontal and vertical offset of the low beam light from each headlamp. The offset is used to adjust the headlamps so that they are properly aimed.
GUIDES FOR FRACTURE SYSTEM
A prosthetic shoulder implant system includes a prosthetic humeral implant and a version device. The humeral implant includes a catch member aperture and a first locking pin aperture. The version device includes a rotatable member with a body and a flexure member, and a plate with a catch member and a projection contacting the flexure member. A first locking pin extends from the version device and is adapted to mate with the first locking pin aperture. In an unlocked condition of the system, the rotatable member has a first rotated position in which the flexure member is in an uncompressed state and the plate is in a first position, and in a locked condition of the system, the rotatable member has a second rotated position in which the flexure member is in a compressed state and the plate is in a second position proximal of the first position.
Inductive sensor arrangement
An inductive sensor device has a scale with scale elements that provide a field pattern in at least one line extending in a measuring direction. The inductive sensor device contains at least one receive circuit with at least one receive coil. The receive coil and the scale are moveable relative to each other in the measuring direction. The receive coil extends from a first end to a second end in the measuring direction. It has a first end section directly adjacent to the first end and a second end section directly adjacent to the second end, and middle section. Each of the sections contains at least one loop of the receive coil. In the end sections the loop area decreases from loop to loop from the loop next to the middle section toward the respective end. Such a loop design compensates for misalignments between the receive coil and the scale.
DEVICE FOR IDENTIFYING CENTER OF STRIKING FACE OF A WOOD-TYPE GOLF CLUB HEAD
A device and method for identifying a center of a striking face of a golf club head are disclosed. The center determining device includes a device body having a central opening defined through a first surface of said device body and a second surface opposite said first surface. A first dimension indicator including a pair of first indicator jaws and a second dimension indicator including a pair of second indicator jaws may be disposed on said device body. A first adjuster and a second adjuster are operable to adjust said first separation distance said pair of first indicator jaws and a second separation distance between said second indicator jaws. When the pair of first indicator jaws and the pair of second indicator jaws are equally spaced around the heel, toe, topline, and sole edges of the striking face, the central opening is aligned with the center of the striking face.
