    摘要: A blade driving device is smaller and has fewer components. A blade driving device includes a base including a support shaft extending frontward, a cover having an opening, a blade located in a blade chamber defined between the base and the cover, and an actuator that moves the blade between a closing position to cover the opening and an opening position to uncover the opening. The cover covers a front of the base. The actuator includes a lever connected to the blade. The lever includes a lever body rotatable about the support shaft in the base, a connector connecting the lever body and the blade, and a protrusion protruding from the lever body frontward beyond the blade and facing the cover.

    摘要: A camera can perform two different photographing operations with a lens at different positions without vignetting while preventing entry of light and dust. A camera includes a frame including a film compartment to contain a photographic film and a barrel extending from the film compartment in an optical axis direction, and a lens barrel movable in the barrel in X-direction. The lens barrel includes cylinders movable frontward relative to the barrel, and a cylinder movable frontward relative to the cylinder. The camera includes a rear bellows connecting the frame and the cylinder, and a front bellows connecting the cylinder and the cylinder. In a first photographing state in which the cylinders extend frontward relative to the barrel and the cylinder is accommodated inside the cylinder, the rear bellows is expanded and the front bellows is partially contracted. In a second photographing state, the cylinder extends frontward relative to the cylinder.

    摘要: An imaging device includes an imaging element and a processor receiving subject light and generating data, a lens cover, an illuminometer, a light source emitting illumination light, an actuator switching the lens cover between a first state for restricting the subject light from entering the imaging element and a second state for allowing the subject light to enter, a switch including a first filter preventing the illumination light from entering the imaging element and a second filter allowing the illumination light to enter, to place the first filter or the second filter on a front surface of the imaging element based on a brightness level in a surrounding environment detected by the illuminometer, and a setter setting an amplification factor to be used by the processor in generating the data based on a brightness level in the surrounding environment detected by the illuminometer in the first state.

    摘要: An imaging device with a compact design allows illumination with a light source and imaging with an image sensor. An imaging device includes a front case having a front surface including a window and a lens-holder receptacle aligned with each other in a width direction (X-direction), a lens holder including a lens and attachable inside the lens-holder receptacle in the front case, a first circuit board on which an image sensor to receive light through the lens in the lens holder is mounted, and a second circuit board on which an LED to emit light through the window in the front case is mounted. The first and second circuit boards extend entirely in the width direction. The second circuit board is located frontward from the first circuit board.

    摘要: A thin blade open-close device is incorporated in a limited space. A blade open-close device includes a base located on a module board including a lens unit, a partition located opposite to the module board from the base, and a cover plate located opposite to the base from the partition. The partition and the cover plate each have an opening aligned with an optical axis of the lens unit. The blade open-close device includes a blade movable in X-direction in a blade chamber defined between the cover plate and the partition, an actuator that moves the blade between a closing position to cover the openings and an opening position to uncover the openings, and a terminal plate extending in Z-direction. The terminal plate electrically connected to the actuator includes connectors at its end adjacent to the module board to be electrically connected to contacts on the module board.

    摘要: A monitoring system can protect the privacy of a treatment recipient while monitoring the treatment recipient being treated. A transmitter transmits a beacon signal. A beacon detector detects an RSSI(2) of the beacon signal. A monitoring device includes an imaging element, an open-close body, a beacon detector, an obtainer, and an open-close body controller. The imaging element captures an image of a treatment recipient being treated by a treatment provider through an opening. The open-close body opens and closes the opening. The beacon detector detects an RSSI(1) of the beacon signal. The obtainer obtains the RSSI(2) detected by the beacon detector. The open-close body controller controls opening and closing of the open-close body based on the RSSI(1) detected by the beacon detector and the RSSI(2) obtained by the obtainer.

    摘要: An imaging device includes a first case, a second case joined to the first case, a substrate receiving an electronic component accommodated in an internal space defined by the first and second cases, a lens barrel holding a lens and supported by the first or second case, and a waterproof seal held in a waterproof-seal holding space between the first and second cases. The first case has a first surface substantially perpendicular to an optical axis, a second surface substantially parallel to the optical axis, and an inner surface meeting the first surface and extending in the optical axis direction. The first and second surfaces form the waterproof-seal holding space. The inner surface faces the substrate edge. The second case has a third surface substantially perpendicular to the optical axis and a fourth surface substantially parallel to the optical axis. The third and fourth surfaces form the waterproof-seal holding space.
