When a snowplow is operating in the up or down direction, the sensor stops the movement automatically and the wire could be broken from an endless drive in the reverse direction impact or conversely winding wire. In the present study, a new bobbin was designed to ensure the durability of snowplows; in this design, the bobbin plays the role of a clutch during power transfer or idling. This will protect the blade of the snowplow during an impact and maintain close contact of the blade with the road. Therefore, the new technology to eliminate the tension and fatigue of the wire is suggested by winding a chain instead of the wire in the newly designed bobbin. From these, it was developed to extend the life of the snowplow without causing damages to the vehicle.

Three Maltese dogs, 5 to 7 months old, were admitted to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital, Chonnam National University with malocclusion including Class IV mesiodistocclusion. In the first case, the treatment was performed by moving the mandibular canine teeth caudally with orthodontic buttons and Masel chains. The second patient was treated for rostroverted mandibular canines using buttons and chains. When distal movement of the mandibular canine teeth was completed, a maxillary arch wire with finger springs was applied to push the incisor teeth forward. In the third case, the treatment began by moving the mandibular canine teeth caudally with buttons and chains. An arch wire with finger springs was applied at maxilla to move the maxillary incisor teeth labially. Additionally, the mandibular incisor teeth were moved lingually by an elastic band attached to the buttons cemented to mandibular canine teeth. As a result, all patients successfully regained a normal occlusion.

Garlic (Allium sativum)is a major crop in most Asian countries, and its consumption in Asia-Pacific countries exceeds 90% of the global consumption. It contains beneficial ingredients and numerous essential nutrients, such as manganese, vitamin B6, and vitamin B1. Garlic demand is rising not only in Asian countries but also around the world. Particularly, garlic demand has been steadily increasing in European countries, such as Spain, France, Italy, and the American continent. In South Korea, 331,671 tons and 387,671 tons of garlic was produced in 2018 and 2019, respectively, making the country the fifth ranking garlic producer in the world, and the production has been increasing every year. In this study, the study on temperature distribution in cold storage of Korean garlic in folding wire mesh pallet container using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis was performed and Computations were based a commercial simulation software (ANSYS Workbenh Ver. 18.0). Considering the respiration heat of garlic, the decreasing rate of temperature in the area in contact with the cold air was fast due to the inflow of cold air inside, while the decreasing rate of temperature in the center of the pallet was very low. In order to maintain a uniform temperature distribution inside the agricultural product storage pallet in a low-temperature warehouse, it is considered desirable to install an air passageway to allow low-temperature air to flow into the wire mesh pallet.

Recently, novel MEMS probe cards can support reliable wafer level chip test with high density probing capacity. However, manufacturing cost and process complexity are crucial weak points for low cost mass production. To overcome these limitations, we have developed micro spring structured MEMS probe card. For fabrication of micro spring module, a wire bonder and electrolytic polished gold wires are used. In this case, stringent tension force control is essential to guarantee the low level contact resistance of micro spring for reliable probing performance. For this, relation between tension force of fabricated probe card and contact resistance is characterized. Compare to conventional probe cards, developed MEMS probe card requires fewer fabrication steps and it can be manufactured with lower cost than other MEMS probe cards. Also, due to the small contact scratch patterns, we expect that it can be applied to bumping types chip test which require higher probing density.

This study evaluated the contact resistance, insulation resistance, withstand voltage characteristics and insertion force, etc., of the wire connector used inside an integrated LITE WAY lighting fixture developed for efficient installation. Since the connector connecting the lighting fixture's internal wires is housed, it is easily connected and separated and has a structure enabling a close-fitting connection. The temperature and time applied to the high temperature characteristics test of the connector are $105^{\circ}C$ and 16 hours, respectively. The measured contact resistance of the high temperature tested connector was 3.258 mV/A, and its measured insulation resistance was greater than $10\;G{\Omega}$ All specimens demonstrated uniform insulation characteristics, which could be seen to be in good condition. From the withstand voltage test results found before and after performing the high temperature operation test on the connector for cable connection, it was confirmed that the withstand voltage characteristics between all terminals were good. The insertion force of the connector connecting the internal wiring averaged 9.67 kgf. It was observed that the insertion force between the plug housing and the female terminal, and that between the plug housing and the male terminal, were 0.680 kgf and 1.27 kgf on average, respectively.

In this Paper, we suggest the precision stage using a novel non-contact planar actuator that utilizes an interaction between an array type of air-core solenoids and permanent magnets. The former with axes arranged in the mutually orthogonal direction is fixed on the stator and the latter with the same polar direction is attached below the stage. The promising magnetic structure has little uncertainty such as hysteresis loss caused by ferromagnetic material, then it is simple to quantify the magnetic phenomenon. And all the magnetic forces are transmitted through narrow air-gap between the coil and the permanent magnet, therefore the structure can be highly compacted. Furthermore, the stage or plate can be perfectly isolated from the stator without any wire connection, leading to diminish the generating possibility of wear particles due to mechanical contact. Then. it is estimated that the proposed operating principle is very suitable for work requiring high accuracy and cleanness. or general-purpose nano stage. The main issues rebated to the plate driving are discussed here.

The development of a tilting train with construction of electric line on the conventional railway is required for speed-up on the conventional railway with many curving sections. For development of tilting train, the study and development of the tilting system and tilting bogie having the different mechanism with a general high speed train will play a main role for improving the technology in the field of Korean railway The study and development of the pantograph tilting mechanism in order to keep a good contact behavior between a pantograph and a contact wire by tilting a pantograph on the opposite direction of the vehicle tilting direction. In this study, we analyzed the aerodynamic characteristic of a developing pantograph on the tilting train and obtained the contact force with catenary by aerodynamic lift force by the aerodynamic analysis. We also performed the numerical analysis for design the device controlling lift force on a pantograph. From the aerodynamic simulation and parameter study for a device to control the lift force, we will suggest the various shape and the optimal shape of it corresponding to a developing tilting pantograph. The Fluent software is used for the calculation of flow profile in this study.

Au/Ni coatings are widely used in the electrical interconnect system, such as connectors, sockets and wire crimps. But due to repeated mechanical contacts, fretting corrosion occurs and causes a rapid increase in resistance. As an attempt to resolve these problem, application of Ni-P-PTFE to replace Ni undercoats was proposed, for which basic materials properties of Ni-P-PTFE coatings for preventing fretting corrosion was examined in this study. The Ni-P-PTFE coatings were formed by electroless Ni plating and PTFE coating followed by the heat-treatment. PTFE particles were found to be uniformly distributed in the Ni-P matrix. The Ni-P-PTFE coatings showed the excellent anti-adherent property with the contact angle of $104.3^{\circ}$, microhardness of 144.3 Hv comparable to that of Ni-P, and electric conductivity equivalent to that of Ni-P.
