    摘要: The present invention provides, in a gaming machine which uses a game table, an information input device which can detect positions indicated by player's hands or the like without relying on the detection of touching of the game table by players. An information input device includes a table which has one or a plurality of input regions which are preset, a position detector which detects a position of an object on the table and outputs positional information on the object, and a positional information determining unit which determines whether the position of the object is in any one of the input regions for a given period based on the positional information on the object from the position detector and treats the positional information valid when the positional information determining unit determines that the object is in the input region for the given period.

    摘要: A lock-up control device for a lock-up torque converter of an automatic transmission is provided which starts measuring an elapsed time when the throttle opening exceeds a first predetermined value due to depression of an accelerator pedal during lock-up clutch slip control. When the throttle opening exceeds a second predetermined value due to sudden depression of the accelerator pedal prior to the elapse of a determination time, a transmission controller terminates the lock-up clutch slip control. After a rapid increase, the slip amount starts decreasing upon termination of the lock-up clutch slip control. Therefore, the temperature of a facing stops rising when the lock-up clutch slip control is terminated, and this improves the durability of the facing. The lock-up clutch slip control is re-started when the throttle opening is reduced to a predetermined value, and this maintains the excellent fuel economy performance.

    摘要: An automatic transmission has a gear transmission mechanism with engaging devices. Up-shifting is achieved with oil pressure, which is controlled with an open control component, a gradient of which is determined based on input torque, and a feedback control component, which is based on a target gear ratio. To prevent shock during an up-shift caused by releasing the accelerator, the feedback control component is set to zero when the amount of change in the throttle opening is equal to or greater than a predetermined threshold value. As a result of inhibiting increase in feedback to make up for a tendency for oil pressure depending on an open control component to decrease as a result of the throttle opening reducing and input torque falling, increase of the oil pressure command value becomes smooth. Peaks of the output torque are therefore suppressed.

    摘要: The present invention has as its object to detect the termination of ink reliably and highly accurately in an ink jet recording apparatus. An ink cartridge 2 has an opening 5 for connection to a recording head 1, and is include of a negative pressure generating member containing portion 14 containing a negative pressure generating member 13 and having an atmosphere communicating port 10, and an ink containing portion 16 which is adjacent to the negative pressure generating member containing portion 14 and communicates therewith at the bottom 11 of the ink cartridge. Ink detecting device 3 is provided below the ink containing portion 16. When the detecting device 3 detects a reduction in the remain in the ink containing portion 16, ink remains only in the negative pressure generating member containing portion 14 and the remainder can be substantially estimated. For the remaining ink, the amount of use is calculated by the counting of discharge pulses or the like and is compared, whereby the remain of the ink can be detected accurately and easily.

    摘要: A focus condition sensing device comprises a first imaging device unit and a second imaging device unit, which are mounted in parallel on a single IC chip board. Integrating operation start signals are set to “H” (High), so that an integrating (accumulating) operation is started in each of the imaging device units. Chip enabling signals are changed between “H” and “L”, and thus, it is determined whether the integrating operation has been completed in the first or second imaging device. When one of outputs of the first and second imaging devices exceeds an AGC level, it is deemed that the integrating operation of the corresponding imaging device is completed, and thus, electric charges are output from the imaging device.

    摘要: A valve timing adjusting apparatus is designed for quickly starting an engine at the intermediate position between the most retarded angle and the most advanced angle and for preventing hammering sound. A top end surface of a stopper piston receives a retard hydraulic pressure, and an annular surface of a large diameter sliding portion receives the retard hydraulic pressure from a hydraulic chamber. The retard hydraulic pressure applied to the top end surface and the annular surface acts in the direction to pull out the stopper piston from a fitting bore. An annular surface of the large diameter sliding portion receives an advance hydraulic pressure when an advance hydraulic chamber is communicated to a hydraulic chamber. The hydraulic pressure of the hydraulic chamber acts as a force for pushing the stopper piston in a fitting member. When the through hole is closed by the large diameter sliding portion, the hydraulic chamber acts as a damper chamber.

    摘要: An adsorbent for ink jet use arranged in a position to be in contact with ink, having the higher capability of adsorption with respect to hydrophobic substance contained in ink than colorant therein. Then, an ink retaining container comprises an ink retaining portion for retaining ink to be supplied to an ink jet head, an ink supply opening which becomes the ink supply portion from the ink retaining portion to the head, an atmospheric communication opening for communicating the ink retaining portion with the air outside. This ink retaining container is provided with the above-mentioned adsorption member arranged in a position to be in contact with ink in it. With the adsorbent and the ink retaining container thus arranged, it is made possible to perform ink jet recording with excellent print characteristics by effectively removing the hydrophobic substance eluted form the ink absorbent in the ink retaining container.
