An imaging device acquires images of a plate-like specimen container having a rectangular shape as seen in top view. The imaging device includes a table, a position reference member, and a holding mechanism. The position reference member includes a first extension and a second extension which intersect at right angles to each other. The holding mechanism includes a rotating plate extending horizontally in plate-like form, and a main body portion for pivoting the rotating plate forwardly in a circumferential direction by means of elastic force of a spring. The rotating plate includes a front wing portion, and a protruding portion protruding forwardly in the circumferential direction from the front wing portion. The specimen container is urged in a second direction to align along the first extension when the rotating plate is pivoted to bring the front wing portion into contact with the specimen container. The specimen container is urged in a first direction to align along the second extension when the protruding portion comes in contact with the specimen container. Thus, the specimen container is aligned and placed in a previously determined position in the imaging device.

Rotation mechanisms for rotating a payload in two, first and second degrees of freedom (DOF), comprising a static base, a first rotation arm coupled mechanically to the static base through a first rotation joint and used for rotating the payload relative to the static base around a first rotation axis that passes through the first rotation joint, a second rotation arm coupled mechanically to the static base through a second rotation joint and used for rotating the payload relative to the static base around a second rotation axis that passes through the second rotation joint, and a follower member rigidly coupled to the payload and arranged to keep a constant distance from the second rotation arm, wherein the rotation of the first arm rotates the payload around the first DOF and the rotation of the second arm rotate the payload around the second DOF.

An entertainment system for adults is described and shown, where control signals can be one-way and remotely transmitted, by means of a mobile device of a used called subscriber, to a mobile device which in turn retransmits the control signals to a sexual apparatus used by a user called provider in the course of a video call that is managed by a data server while audio and/or video signals are transmitted from the provider mobile device to the subscriber mobile device via a streaming server.

A sensor mounting structure for an engine is provided. The sensor mounting structure offers a greater flexibility in mounting a sensor which detects an operation of an actuation member disposed at an inner wall spaced apart from an outer wall of a cylinder head of a valve gear. A sensor mounting structure for an engine includes a valve gear provided at a cylinder head and a sensor detecting an operation of the valve gear. The sensor is mounted on a sensor mounting hole formed at a head inner wall of the cylinder head covered with a cylinder head cover.

A portable protective case for the safe transport and storage of measuring devices and other electrical equipment. The protective case is designed to protect a valuable and sensitive measuring device located inside it against theft, unauthorized use and/or potentially harmful environmental influences. The case comprises communication means for sending and receiving data via a wireless network, as well as for receiving localization data, which enable the communication unit to provide at least a rough location of the case.
