Provided is a signal processing apparatus, including a filter unit that filters an audio signal created by decimating a portion of frequency components by an all-pass filter and outputs a filtering result thereof as improvement components to improve sound quality of the audio signal, and an adder that generates an improved sound in which the sound quality of the audio signal is improved by adding the improvement components to the audio signal.

An audio signal processing device includes a processing unit for convoluting head-related transfer functions with audio signals of a plurality of channels, and the processing unit includes a storage unit for storing data of a double-normalized head-related transfer function by normalizing a normalized head-related transfer function obtained by normalizing a head-related transfer function in a state in which a dummy head or a person is present in a position of the listener with a transfer characteristic in a pristine state in which the dummy head or the person is not present, using a normalized head-related transfer function obtained by normalizing a head-related transfer function in the state in which the dummy head or the person is present with a transfer characteristic in the pristine state, and a convolution unit for reading the data from the storage unit and convoluting the data with the audio signals.

An audio signal processing device includes: head related transfer function convolution processing units convoluting head related transfer functions with audio signals of respective channels of plural channels, which allow the listener to listen to sound so that sound images are localized at assumed virtual sound image localization positions concerning respective channels of the plural channels of two or more channels when sound is reproduced by electro-acoustic transducer means; and 2-channel signal generation means for generating 2-channel audio signals to be supplied to the electro-acoustic transducer means from audio signals of plural channels from the head related transfer function convolution processing units, wherein, in the head related transfer function convolution processing units, at least a head related transfer function concerning direct waves from the assumed virtual image localization positions concerning a left channel and a right channel in the plural channels to both ears of the listener is not convoluted.

A safety switch is provided in which the open-close condition of a switching contact provided in a lock mechanism is reliably switched in a manner coupled with a motion of a lock member between a lock position and a unlock position. Since a link member, which directly and simultaneously switches the open-close conditions of normally-open and normally-closed switching contacts pursuant to the motion of a lock member, is provided, the open-close conditions of the normally-open and normally-close switching contacts can be switched reliably in a coupled manner with the motion of the lock member between the lock position and the unlock position. As a result, for example, by monitoring the open-close conditions of the normally-open and normally-close switching contacts, it is possible to determine to which of the lock position and the unlock position the lock member has moved, that is, which of the locked state and the unlocked state the rotation of the drive cam is in.

A head-related transfer function (HRTF) convolution method arranged, when an audio signal is reproduced acoustically by an electro-acoustic conversion unit disposed in a nearby position of both ears of a listener, to convolute an HRTF into the audio signal, which allows the listener to listen to the audio signal such that a sound image is localized in a perceived virtual sound image localization position, the method including the steps of: measuring, when a sound source is disposed in the virtual sound image localization position, and a sound-collecting unit is disposed in the position of the electro-acoustic conversion unit, a direct-wave direction HRTF regarding the direction of a direct wave, and reflected-wave direction HRTFs regarding the directions of selected one or more reflected waves, from the sound source to the sound-collecting unit, separately beforehand; and convoluting the obtained direct-wave direction HRTF, and the reflected-wave direction HRTFs into the audio signal.

A head-related transfer function measurement method includes the steps of: first measuring, including placing an acousto-electric conversion unit nearby both ears of a listener where placement of an electro-acoustic conversion unit is assumed, picking up sound waves emitted at a perceived sound source position with the acousto-electric conversion unit in a state with a dummy head or a human at the listener position, and measuring a head-related transfer function from only the sound waves directly reaching the acousto-electric conversion unit; second measuring, including picking up sound waves emitted at a perceived sound source position with the acousto-electric conversion unit, with no dummy head or human at the listener position, and measuring a natural-state transfer property from only the sound waves directly reaching the acousto-electric conversion unit; normalizing the head-related transfer function with the natural-state transfer property to obtain a normalized head-related transfer function; which is stored in a storage unit.
摘要:
A safety switch is provided which is increased in durability and which offers a high degree of freedom of mounting the safety switch to place.A switch body has a rectangular solid shape. An actuator entrance hole is formed at one of the opposite corner portions of the switch body whereas a cable lead-out port is formed at the other corner portion, whereby the safety switch is increased in the degree of mounting freedom. Thus is offered a wider choice of place to mount the safety switch. The switch body is formed with only one actuator entrance hole so that the safety switch is prevented from suffering failure caused by foreign substances invading through an actuator entrance hole left unused. In addition, a driving cam may be formed with an engaging portion and a cam curve portion in spaced relation so that the driving cam is configured to be free from an area having poor strength. Thus, the driving cam is increased in strength. This leads to the increased durability of the safety switch.
摘要:
A safety switch capable of detecting withdrawal of an actuator from a switch main unit in a sure and reliable manner even when the safety switch, including a lock mechanism, is in a locked condition and an attempt is made to forcibly withdraw the actuator from the switch main unit. Even when a drive cam becomes capable of rotation since not less than one of a notch cut-out section and a lock member is broken by forcibly extracting an actuator with rotation of the drive cam locked, a cam curve section of the drive cam and an operating rod are in a normal condition and free of breakage. Accordingly, if the drive cam rotates in a counter-clockwise direction, normally-closed contacts of a contact section adopt an open condition normally, and even in situations where the actuator is withdrawn from the switch main unit with a force equal to or greater than the fracture strength of the safety switch, withdrawal of the actuator from the switch main unit can be detected in a sure and reliable manner.
摘要:
A safety switch that is constructed to change over the connection contact when an actuator enters the operating portion of the switch proper and an operating rod at the switch portion moves in response to this. The safety switch includes a driving cam and restricting plates arranged on either side of the driving cam for restricting movement of the driving cam when an object other than the actuator is inserted into the operating portion.

A digital signal processing apparatus for matching the sampling frequency of an input digital signal to an internal sampling frequency. The digital signal processing apparatus has a sampling frequency converting unit for matching the sampling frequency of an input digital signal to an internal sampling frequency, a sampling frequency detection unit for detecting the sampling frequency of the input digital signa, a frequency difference calculating unit for finding the frequency difference between the inherent sampling frequency of the input digital signal and the sampling frequency detected by the sampling frequency detection unit and a pitch shifting unit for shifting the pitch of an output digital signal of the sampling frequency converting unit based upon said frequency difference. If the input digital signal has the sampling frequency slightly offset from the inherent sampling frequency, the signal of the inherent sampling frequency can be recovered, while the pitch can be restored to the inherent pitch.
