In order to provide a walking assistance device capable of favorably providing an assisting force for maintaining the upright posture while reducing the sense of pressure when worn by the user, a hip support member (1) of the walking assisting device, which comprises an assisting force generator (hip joint actuator 10) disposed at least on a side of a hip joint to provide an assisting force to a movement of a lower limb, is provided with: a back support (4) equipped with pads (18, 19, 20) for respectively abutting an intermediate portion between right and left erector spinae muscles, lateral outer sides of the spinae muscles and right and left iliac crests; and a belt (5) connected to the back support for tightening a lower part of the rectus abdominis muscle. In this way, a supporting force can be provided to the lumbar vertebrae to steadily keep the upright posture while reducing a resistance to a bending movement of the waist caused by the support member. Further, the drive torque from the assisting force generator can be supported by the whole hip portion and this can contribute to preventing inadvertent move of the support member.

A delay element generates a delayed clock signal which transitions with a delay from a rising (or falling) of a reference clock signal by a delay amount determined based on an output of a loop filter. A signal generation circuit generates two signals which complementarily change according to rising and falling of the reference clock signal and a transition of the delayed clock signal. A charge pump circuit performs on the loop filter, according to these two signals, a push (or pull) operation during an interval extending from a rising (or falling) of the reference clock signal to the transition of the delayed clock signal and a pull (or push) operation during an interval extending from the transition of the delayed clock signal to a falling (or rising) of the reference clock signal.

A pattern data producing device incorporated in a sewing machine which comprises a sewing mechanism including a needle swing mechanism and a display and in which the sewing mechanism is operated so that a pattern sewing can be carried out, thereby producing pattern data. The pattern data producing device includes a touch panel mounted on an outer surface of the display so as to be capable of detecting a location of touch, a pen-shaped pointing device inputting and instructing on the touch panel a plurality of points corresponding to a plurality of needle drop points forming a pattern, a pattern data producing unit which obtains location data of needle drop points from the input points to produce pattern data, and a display data producing unit which produces, from the location data of needle drop points, display data for displaying a configuration of the pattern on the display.
摘要:
An information output apparatus which is capable of limiting a range for outputting information based on a position. A position information acquiring section acquires first position information, a message receiving section receives information including second position information, and a message transferring section transfers the received information. The message transferring section transfers the received information when the first position information acquired by the position information acquiring section falls within a predetermined range of the second position information received by the message receiving section.
摘要:
A voltage control circuit for implementing, e.g., the CPS function in which a high-accuracy comparison is performed between a high external voltage and a reference voltage. A diode-connected transistor converts the external voltage to a voltage lower than the external voltage in conjunction with an external voltage dropping resistor. A comparator compares the converted voltage with a specified comparison voltage. The size of the transistor is determined such that the ratio of an increment of the converted voltage to an increment of the external voltage is sufficiently high in a comparison region in which the external voltage is close to the reference voltage. A clamping circuit clamps the converted voltage with a specified limit voltage such that the converted voltage does not exceed the withstand voltage of the circuit.

In the circuit for detecting the voltage level of an analog signal, a conversion circuit converts an analog signal to digital signals by comparing the voltage level of the analog signal with a plurality of reference potentials. A filter circuit matches timings of at least either rising edges or falling edges of the digital signals with each other. This prevents malfunction in the voltage level detection.

A current problem is that when a DRAM is to be accessed through a data bus, the DRAM is accessed independently of a bank, a row address, etc., and therefore, is inefficient. To solve this problem, an address bus and a data bus are connected to a main memory part independently of each other, a temporary memory part for holding a plurality of addresses in advance is disposed on the address bus side and holds addresses for every access to the main memory part regardless of transfer of data, thereby pipelining address inputting cycles. Further, for the purpose of an effective operation of the main memory part, using the addresses which are held, the addresses are rearranged in such a manner that addresses with the same row addresses become continuous to each other, or when there are not addresses with the same row addresses, addresses different banks from each other become continuous to each other, and the memory is thereafter accessed. This reduces the number of precharges, shortens a standby period which is necessary for a precharge, and realizes accessing while reducing a wasteful use of time.
