Abstract:
A glove according to the present invention comprises a main body wearable with respect to a hand, the main body comprising finger parts, a back-of-hand part connected to the finger parts, a wrist part connected to the back-of-hand part and serving to protect a wrist, and impact alleviating members for alleviating an impact provided in the finger parts and the back-of-hand part and on a back-of-hand side of the wrist part, wherein the impact alleviating members provided in the finger parts continuously extend from base parts of the fingers through fingertips and has such a flexibility that can follow a bending action of the fingers.
Abstract:
A ball catching apparatus according to the present invention comprises a main body in which a back-of-hand-side inner skin and a palm-side inner skin are respectively securely fitted to a back-of-hand-side outer skin and a palm-side outer skin, wherein a hand can be inserted into between the back-of-hand-side inner skin and the palm-side inner skin, an intermediate layer secured to one or both of the palm-side outer skin and the palm-side inner skin is interposed between the palm-side outer skin and the palm-side inner skin, and an air layer is formed between the intermediate layer and the palm-side outer skin and between the intermediate layer and the palm-side inner skin.
Abstract:
An image forming apparatus and method in which a controller is capable of executing image processing of its own are disclosed. The controller has an RF unit for processing image information, a halftone image processor, a density corrector and a patch generator. The engine includes a modulator corresponding to the RF unit, a halftone image processor different from that of the controller, a density controller, modulator and patch generator corresponding to the halftone processor of the engine, a sensor for sensing the density of formed patches, and a control unit for controlling the density of an image on the basis of a signal from the sensor. The engine sends the controller a signal relating to density control.
Abstract:
A signal recording apparatus, for recording a TV signal in which an audio signal such as a MUSE signal and a video signal are multiplexed in a time sharing manner in units of a given period of time, is arranged to code these video and audio signals alike, to dispersively allocate a discretely separated audio signal within the video signal, and to provide symbols other than the symbols the audio and video signals within each of synchronizing block for the purpose of permitting the use of other video signal recording apparatuses. The arrangement permits simplification and high-quality of the apparatus for recording the signals of this kind and thus contributes to the popularization of the apparatus.
Abstract:
A ball catching apparatus includes a first outer shell on the back side of a user's hand as inserted into the apparatus, a second outer shell on the ball catching side, and an inner shell disposed inwardly of the second outer shell. The apparatus further includes a protector unit attached to at least either the inner shell or the first outer shell for protecting the user's palm. The protector unit is attached in such a manner as to project from a finger inserting opening of the apparatus through which the user's thumb and fingers are inserted.
Abstract:
An apparatus for reproducing video signals from the recording medium in which the video signals to which the control information pertaining to the image plane corresponding to every image plane is added are previously recorded. Upon reproduction of the video signals in accordance with an array pattern of the image plane different from the pattern used at the time of recording, at least a portion of the control information added to the video signals reproduced by the reproducing apparatus is changed into other information in accordance with the above-mentioned pattern to obtain the control information used for processing the video signals, thereby allowing an excellent image plane to be obtained.
Abstract:
A rolling bearing to be used in molten metal provides inner and outer races, a plurality of rolling elements and a cage, in which a solid lubricant is exposed at least in contact surfaces between the cage and the plurality of rolling elements, and further in which the solid lubricant is exposed also in contact surfaces between the cage and the inner and outer races. The cage is formed of a material having specific gravity of 0.8 to 1.2 with respect to the molten metal. In the rolling bearing, the wear resistance of the inner and outer races, the rolling elements and the cage can be improved.
