Abstract:
A pump with high performance and cleanability includes a casing having a smaller volute and a larger volute; a space between an outer circumference of an impeller and a starting end of the smaller volute being greater than that of the larger volute, generating a circulating flow of self-priming water from the smaller volute to the larger volute; and a diffusing part of the larger volute being formed into an upright, cylindrical self-priming water separating chamber guiding the self-priming water from the smaller volute to flow in for air-water separation. An inner circumference part of the casing is formed concentric with the outer circumference of the impeller with a predetermined space therebetween; defining members are protrusively disposed on the inner circumference part of the casing so as to define the shapes of the two volutes; and the self-priming water separating chamber is made attachable to and detachable from the casing.
Abstract:
A control apparatus has a controller configured to control charge and discharge of a secondary battery. The controller acquires a positive electrode potential and a negative electrode potential of the secondary battery. The controller controls the charge and discharge of the secondary battery such that each of the positive electrode potential and the negative electrode potential changes within a range between an upper limit value and a lower limit value set for each of the positive electrode potential and the negative electrode potential.
Abstract:
An image sensing apparatus that carries out image sensing continuously and inputs a plurality of images, having a digital signal processing circuit that detects, at each input image, from image data thereof, an object that satisfies a preset condition, a first exposure value determination unit that calculates a first exposure value from the image data, a second exposure value determination unit that calculates a second exposure value based on the detected object, and a selection unit that selects either the first exposure value, the second exposure value, a currently set exposure value, or an exposure value calculated based on a luminance of an area referenced when calculating a currently set exposure value as an exposure value to be used for a next image sensing based on object detection results obtained by the digital signal processing circuit.
Abstract:
Surface form data as an object to which a grain is applied is inputted to a data input part. A plane polygon forming part projects a borderline of the surface form data on an x-y plane and changes the borderline to poly-lines to form a two-dimensional polygon mesh having the borderline as an outer edge. A three-dimensional polygon forming part connects together intersections of straight lines extending to a z-axis direction from apexes of the polygon mesh and the original surface form data to obtain a three-dimensional polygon mesh and further make the mesh uniform. A grain forming part obtains an amount of displacement from texture data corresponding to the apex of the three-dimensional polygon mesh through a texture model formed and deformed in a texture model deforming part to set polygon data obtained by connecting together the apexes respectively displaced in normal directions as the surface processed data.

An LED lamp has an envelope that includes a globe (30) and a case (50), an interior space of the envelope being divided in two by a mount (20) closing an opening of the globe (30), the lamp containing, in a globe (30) side of the interior space, an LED and, in a case (50) side of the interior space, a circuit unit for causing the LED to emit light. The LED is thermally connected to the mount (20), and the mount (20) and the case (50) are joined to the globe (30) such that, during light emission, at least as much heat from the LED is propagated from the mount (20) to the globe (30) as from the mount (20) to the case (50).
