20090042159 | ORTHODONTIC APPLIANCE - The present invention aims to provide an orthodontic appliance capable of efficiently applying vibration to teeth to be aligned and enabling a treatment to be easily and safely continued even at home. This appliance is provided with a load applying mechanism and a vibration generating actuator. The load applying mechanism is mounted on teeth to apply a load for the malocclusion correction to a specified tooth in the teeth. The vibration generating actuator includes a contact portion that is inserted into a buccal cavity containing the teeth and can come into contact with a part of the load applying mechanism corresponding to the specified tooth or the specified tooth, and applies a vibration force from the contact portion to the specified tooth or the part of the load applying mechanism. | 02-12-2009 |
20090061375 | ORTHODONTIC APPLIANCE - The present invention aims to provide an orthodontic appliance capable of aligning teeth within a shorter period of time than usual without using braces including an orthodontic wire and brackets. This appliance is provided with a dental mouthpiece mountable on teeth and a vibrating element. The dental mouthpiece is so shaped as to apply a biasing force in an aligning direction to a tooth to be aligned in the teeth while being mounted on the teeth. The vibrating element is attached to the dental mouthpiece, generates mechanical vibration and applies the vibration to the tooth to be aligned, thereby activating the bone remodeling of a target tooth and an alveolar bone to promote an orthodontic effect. | 03-05-2009 |
20090061379 | Orthodontic Appliance - The present invention concerns an orthodontic appliance for accelerating the tooth aligning effect and shortening the treatment period, and has an object to provide an appliance which can bring about higher aligning effect than usual ways by giving vibration to tooth to be aligned to activate bone remodeling of the targeted tooth and the alveolar bone and enhance the shift of the tooth. This appliance includes a vibrating element and a dental mouthpiece having the vibrating element built therein. The provision of the vibrating element in the dental mouthpiece facilitates the application of vibration and handling, and continues the treatment safely even at home. The inner shape of the dental mouthpiece serves aligning treatment as well as acceleration of the effect. | 03-05-2009 |
20090061380 | ORTHODONTIC APPLIANCE - An orthodontic appliance capable of remarkably shortening a period of treatment and reducing burdens on patients is provided with braces to be mounted on a specified tooth included in teeth, a magnetic field generator and a magnetic element to be attached to the teeth. The magnetic element vibrates in response to a magnetic field generated by the magnetic field generator and applies the vibration thereof to the tooth on which the braces are mounted. | 03-05-2009 |
20100068670 | ORTHODONTIC APPLIANCE - The present invention concerns an orthodontic appliance for accelerating the tooth aligning effect and shortening the treatment period, and has an object to provide an appliance which can bring about higher aligning effect than usual ways by giving vibration to tooth to be aligned to activate bone remodeling of the targeted tooth and the alveolar bone and enhance the shift of the tooth. This appliance includes a vibrating element and a dental mouthpiece having the vibrating element built therein. The provision of the vibrating element in the dental mouthpiece facilitates the application of vibration and handling, and continues the treatment safely even at home. The inner shape of the dental mouthpiece serves aligning treatment as well as acceleration of the effect. | 03-18-2010 |
20110076634 | ORTHODONTIC APPLIANCE - The present invention provides an orthodontic appliance having a load applying mechanism. To correct malocclusion, the load applying mechanism may include a projection fixed to the specified tooth in the teeth so as to project from the specified tooth in the teeth. | 03-31-2011 |
20120148971 | ORTHODONTIC APPLIANCE - The present invention concerns an orthodontic appliance for accelerating the tooth aligning effect and shortening the treatment period, and has an object to provide an appliance which can bring about higher aligning effect than usual ways by giving vibration to tooth to be aligned to activate bone remodeling of the targeted tooth and the alveolar bone and enhance the shift of the tooth. This appliance includes a vibrating element and a dental mouthpiece having the vibrating element built therein. The provision of the vibrating element in the dental mouthpiece facilitates the application of vibration and handling, and continues the treatment safely even at home.

20080254743 | Wireless Communication System - In a wireless repeater apparatus communicating with wireless communication apparatuses, a switching circuit transfers a data packet received through any one of antennas to any one of antennas for transmission. A correspondence table memory stores a correspondence table that includes relations of an identifier of each antenna between an identifier of each wireless communication apparatus. A wireless repeater apparatus control circuit controls transfer of the data packet by the switching circuit based on the correspondence table. | 10-16-2008 |
20100067393 | Packet round trip time measuring method - When a source device measures a packet round trip time RTT from the source device to a sink device, a band management unit allocates a reservation period for transmitting an RTT test command from the source device to the sink device and a reservation period for transmitting an RTT response setting request command from the sink device to the source device within a super frame period. At a start timing of the reservation period, a controller transmits the RTT test command and starts measuring the RTT. Upon receiving the RTT response setting request command, the controller finishes measuring the RTT. | 03-18-2010 |
20100074134 | BAND ALLOCATION METHOD FOR ALLOCATING A PAIR OF RESERVATION PERIODS FOR MEASURING PACKET ROUND TRIP TIME - Upon measuring a packet round trip time RTT from a source device to a sink device, the source device requests a band management unit of a network to allocate bands for round trip packets. The band management unit notifies a reservation period Tsource for transmitting a packet from the source device to the sink device and a reservation period Tsink for sending back a packet from the sink device to the source device, using a beacon signal. The reservation period Tsource is allocated within a time period starting from a middle timing of a time cycle Tbeacon of the beacon signal, and the reservation period Tsink is allocated at a middle timing between the reservation period Tsource and the beacon signal right after the reservation period Tsource. | 03-25-2010 |
20120069894 | Method Of Transmitting Video Data - A sink device wirelessly transmits a device capability response message to a source device. The device capability response message includes a video information message including at least one video format identification code (VIC) for identifying a video format of video data, which the sink device can display, and a coded video information message including compressing parameters for compressing video data. The VIC includes a VIC for 4k2k video data having 3840 or 4096 effective horizontal pixels and 2160 effective vertical pixels. | 03-22-2012 |
