Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a light guide plate, such as a sign or guide display board, that guides light incoming from a side surface of a substrate thereof and guides the light outgoing from a major surface thereof. The method includes arranging fabrication dots in a matrix shape at a rectangular distal surface of a ultrasonic fabrication horn, forming, on a major surface of the light guide plate substrate, reflection dots corresponding to the fabrication dots on the distal surface upon pressing the distal surface of the ultrasonic fabrication horn to the major surface of the light guide plate substrate, and forming the reflection dots in a prescribed range on the major surface of the light guide plate substrate by repeating formation of the reflection dot upon correlative movement of the ultrasonic fabrication horn within the major surface with respect to the light guide plate substrate.

A electric junction box includes the fuse puller and a fuse mounting surface to which a plurality of fuses including the first fuse are mounted so as to be arranged in parallel to each other.
Abstract:
In a piano which is enabled to provide performance using electronic sound source as well as normal piano play, the proposed piano is such a piano where there is no difference of balance between the normal piano play and the play using electronic sound source. When key is moved in an electronic sound source mode, CPU detects a number n of the key (S110), detects a time lag .DELTA. T between the timings at which blockage is caused between light emitting elements and light receiving elements of both key sensors (S120), and calculates a velocity V according to the time lag .DELTA. T (S130). Then, performance data is prepared according to these key depression information, at the performance data preparation routine (S140), and a delay time Td corresponding to the velocity V is determined by using a delay time determination table (S150). Subsequently, it is determined whether the delay time Td has elapsed (S160). When it has elapsed, the performance data is outputted to the electronic sound source (S170). As a result, sound is created, with the delay time Td, according to the key depression intensity as an interval after the key depression.
Abstract:
A fuse puller is provided with a base component, and extracts a first fuse that is fitted in a first housing portion of a fuse box. The base component includes a first holding portion that is provided on one side of the base component and holds the first fuse inside the first housing portion, a gripping portion that is provided on the other side of the base component, and a second holding portion that holds a second fuse.
Abstract:
A switch mechanism of a piano with a built-in electronic musical instrument, which eliminates the disposition of switches on the surface of a piano to improve the appearance of the piano. An upright piano(1) includes a hammering mechanism(7) which strikes strings in accordance with the operation of a keyboard(3), and thus it serves as an acoustic piano as well as an electronic piano because it has a built-in electronic sound source(9) controlled by the operation of the same keyboard(3). This upright piano(1) includes an inhibition mechanism(13) for inactivating the hammering mechanism(7) in electronic mode, a pedal mechanism(17) having a muffler pedal(16), a control portion(19) driven by a power supply(18) for controlling the electronic sound source in accordance with the operation of the keyboard(3) to produce sounds, and a power supply switch(21) turned ON/OFF by the actuation of the muffler pedal(16) to make and break the electrical connection between the power supply(18) and the control portion(19).
Abstract:
There is provided a fuse block 3 having an insertion port 7 into which a dark current fuse 11 is inserted and adapted to hold the dark current fuse 11 in a mount position, and the fuse block includes a guide surface 8 which is formed within the insertion port 7 in such a manner as to continue from the mount position for the dark current fuse 11 for contact with the dark current fuse 11 and arms formed at positions lying at lateral sides of the dark current fuse 11 in such a manner as to face the insertion port 7 so as to be able to hold the dark current fuse 11 therein when the dark current fuse 11 is in contact with the guide surface 8.
Abstract:
In an electrical junction box, a first board part and a second board part are arranged substantially in parallel while opposing to each other. An electric wire extends along both of the first board part and the second board part, and has a bent portion extending across a gap defined between the first board part and the second board part. An electronic unit is disposed in the gap.

Abstract:
The invention was developed in order to play an electronic piano in the same manner as when playing an acoustic piano without feeling any sense of incompatibility. At S100, the key velocity (key stroke strength) is detected by key sensors 33 and 35. At S110, the detected key stroke strength is converted referring to the conversion table stored in ROM 43 and showing a touch curve. At S120, based on said converted key stroke strength data, an electronic sound source 9 and an amplifier 11 are controlled to generate sounds from speakers. The converted key stroke strength represents the sound volume. Since the conversion table of the present embodiment is set so that when the electronic piano is played with the same touch as in playing the acoustic piano, the same sound volume as the acoustic piano can be obtained. Therefore, the player do not feel any sense of incompatibility.
Abstract:
A keyboard musical instrument having a keyboard range display device with which the positions of player's hands or fingers on a keyboard and the keys to be depressed as needed, are visually identified, comprises right hand and left hand range display means for displaying keyboard ranges to be covered by right and left hand fingers, and preferably, note-on position display means. Display data included in play data, is used to turn on each display means. A player immediately and intuitively perceives the range that is defined, so that he can easily move his fingers to correspond with the range. Even when the hands are near each other during a performance, the player can clearly identify the positions of the hands on the keyboard and the fingers to be used for key depression.
