摘要:
The optical apparatus includes an image pickup optical system including a focus lens, a controller controlling movement of the focus lens in an optical axis direction of the image pickup optical system, a shake detector detecting a shake amount of the optical apparatus in the optical axis direction, and a memory storing plural shake amounts sequentially detected by the shake detector. The controller calculates, in response to a start instruction of exposure for the image pickup and before start of the exposure, a predictive value of the shake amount for a time point of the exposure based on the plural shake amounts stored in the memory and including at least one shake amount detected after the start instruction of exposure. The controller moves the focus lens to a position corresponding to the predictive value before the start of the exposure.

A communication zone is defined by a plurality of cells, which are separated from one another and has respective fixed base stations. The base stations in the first cell and the last cell are capable of bidirectional communication with a mobile station, while other base stations are capable of unidirectional communication. The base stations are connected to a zone control station, which controls communications with the mobile station within the zone.

A clock spring connector which has a shorter length of a flexible cable and can suppress noises. In a ring-shaped space between an outer cylindrical portion of a first housing and an inner cylindrical portion of a second housing, there are disposed a flexible cable wound in opposite directions with a reversely looped portion being at a U-turn point, and a carrier member rotatable following the reversely looped portion. A spacer as part of the carrier member slides over a rib provided on a bottom plate of the first housing.

A microwave probe has a cylindrical support made of stabilized zirconia being excellent in heat insulation, and the cylindrical support is threadably installed at a partitioning wall to partition an atmosphere of high temperature. The support is provided at the center with a through hole, and an antenna for transmitting or receiving microwave is installed at one opening of the through hole positioning at outside of the partitioning wall, and a metal ring member is installed at other opening of the through hole positioning within the partitioning wall. The transmitting and receiving antenna and the ring member are fixed to respective openings by a ceramic adhesive which is filled in the through hole and excellent in heat insulation. A part of the ring member projects in the atmosphere. A rotary body breakage detecting apparatus has the microwave probe installed at a cabinet wall to cover a wing body rotating in an atmosphere of high temperature, and a microwave oscillator and a microwave detector are connected to the probe through a circulator. A breakage detecting circuit is connected to the microwave detector. The breakage detecting circuit detects that peak value of the receiving signal outputted from the detector (the signal pulsating with rotation of the wing body) varies beyond a prescribed range, and generates signal informing the breakage of the wing body.

An apparatus capable of sensing sudden approach of a succeeding vehicle and emitting an alarm, while being free from malfunction that may otherwise be caused by the noise from the succeeding vehicle which has approached at a normal speed and stopped in the proximity. The sensing apparatus includes a transmitter disposed in a rear bumper of a vehicle for transmitting ultrasonic waves toward a succeeding vehicle; a receiver disposed in the rear bumper for receiving the ultrasonic waves reflected from the succeeding vehicle; a circuit for detecting the approach speed of the succeeding vehicle from the difference between the frequencies of the reflected waves and the transmitted waves, and generating an alarm signal when the detected approach speed has exceeded a predetermined value; a circuit for detecting the approach distance of the succeeding vehicle at a normal speed from the signal strength of the reflected ultrasonic waves, and interrupting the action of the ultrasonic transmitter and receiver when the detected distance has become shorter than a predetermined value; and an alarm activated in response to the alarm signal and giving a warning of danger to drivers of both the apparatus-installed vehicle and the succeeding one.

A rear monitor system for an automotive vehicle comprises a sensor secured to a vehicle door located on one side of the vehicle and adapted to be operated by a vehicle occupant when leaving the vehicle, the sensor generating a signal indicating that the occupant is going to leave the vehicle. A control unit is responsive to the signal from the sensor for transmitting radiant energy in a rearward direction to detect a reflection from an object approaching the vehicle from behind at a speed higher than a predetermined value. Further provided is a safety device which is responsive to the detected reflection for preventing the vehicle occupant from opening the door.

A diesel smoke meter which uses micro-waves to detect the density of black smoke contained in the exhaust gas discharged from the diesel engine through an exhaust pipe. A micro-wave transmitting device is coupled to the exhaust pipe and transmits micro-waves into the exhaust pipe. Micro-waves transiting the exhaust pipe are attenuated by the black smoke in the exhaust gas. A micro-wave receiving device receives the attenuated micro-waves and provides a received signal which varies in accordance with the signal level of the attenuated micro-waves. A measuring device receives the received signal and provides an output indicative of the density of black smoke in the exhaust gas.

There is provided a physical property measuring method for a TFT liquid crystal panel, includes an impedance setting step of setting the impedance between the source and drain of a TFT of the TFT liquid crystal panel to be less than or equal to a predetermined value, a voltage application step of applying a voltage that cyclically varies to a liquid crystal layer of the TFT liquid crystal panel. And the method further includes a physical property measuring step of measuring a transient current flowing through the liquid crystal layer to which the voltage that cyclically varies is applied in the voltage application step to measure physical properties of the liquid crystal layer.

An optical apparatus includes a zoom optical system including a focus lens unit, an operation portion configured to manually and mechanically change a focal length of the zoom optical system, and a controller configured to control the focus lens unit so as to move along a track depending on an object distance in an operation of the operation portion. The controller moves the focus lens unit to a second position that is different from a first position that is a position of the focus lens unit in disconnecting a power when a first focal length that is a focal length of the zoom optical system in disconnecting the power is different from a second focal length that is a focal length of the zoom optical system in reconnecting the power.
