摘要:
Operability of an image database is improved. To achieve this, a manipulator is displayed on a horizontal axis at the center thereof. If the manipulator is dragged upward or downward, the scale of graduations on the horizontal axis is enlarged or reduced (e.g., month of photography becomes year of photography or day of photography). If the manipulator is dragged rightward or leftward, the values of the graduations on the horizontal axis increase or decrease (e.g., from January to December, 2000, to either January to December, 2001 or January to December, 1999). If a search command is applied, images that fall within a search range the graduations of which have been changed are searched. Merely dragging the manipulator makes it possible to change not only the values of the graduations but also the scale thereof.

A bit apparatus in which a cutter member having cutting teeth is axially supported on a shaft for rotation about the shaft, and a bearing mechanism is interposed between the cutter member and the shaft. The bearing mechanism includes at least a radial bearing for bearing a radially directed load and a thrust bearing for bearing an axially directed load. The radial bearing has a shaft-side split bearing member and a cutter-side split bearing member that are opposed to or in sliding contact with each other and capable of rotating relative to each other.

In a pressurized fluidized bed boiler, furnace means is divided into at least two separate furnaces: a furnace with an evaporator and a superheater disposed therethrough, and a furnace with the superheater and a reheater disposed therethrough. The furnaces are accommodated in separate pressure vessels, respectively. Air is supplied into the pressure vessels through air pipes connected to the pressure vessels, where it is used for pressurizing the pressure vessels, and then supplied into the furnaces through their lower portions, where it is used as a combustion air. An oxygen concentration meter is mounted in an exhaust gas pipe in an outlet of the furnace, and an air flow rate adjusting valve 3 is mounted outside each of the pressure vessels. Thus, a more precise control of air-fuel ratio can be performed independently for every furnaces by controlling the air flow rate adjusting valves on the basis of at least one of an oxygen concentration signal from the oxygen concentration meter and a fuel supply amount signal from a fuel supply pump motor.

Ten representative images are extracted from an image database storing images of a number of frames. The extracted representative images are displayed in a coordinate area, along the coordinate axes of which the image characteristics of the images are plotted, in a form in which the images are distributed in accordance with the image characteristics possessed by the extracted representative images. An image having characteristics resembling those of a required image is designated from among the representative images displayed. Images of ten frames having characteristics resembling those of the designated image are again displayed in distributed form in a coordinate area having image characteristics plotted along the coordinate axes thereof. The coordinate axes of the coordinate area displayed the second time are made more detailed than those of the coordinate area displayed the first time. As a result, images having slightly different characteristics are displayed in separated form, thereby making it easier to find the required image.

E-mail to which difference moving picture data has been attached is transmitted from a mobile telephone for displaying difference moving pictures to a mail server. The latter separates the difference moving picture data from the e-mail and transmits it to a moving picture converting server. The latter converts the difference moving picture data to complete moving picture data and stores the complete moving picture data in a database. E-mail with a URL link indicating the storage location in the database is generated by the mail server and transmitted to a mobile telephone for displaying complete moving pictures. When mobile telephone applies a moving picture request to a web server, the complete moving picture data is read from the database and transmitted to this mobile telephone. When this occurs, a moving picture represented by the difference moving picture data that has been transmitted from the mobile telephone is displayed on the display screen of the mobile telephone. Since the complete moving picture data has been generated in advance, the moving picture can be displayed immediately.

A surface-coated wear-resistant member of cermet which includes a substrate of cermet and a hard coating vapor-deposited on a surface of the substrate. The coating is composed of at least one titanium compound selected from the group consisting of titanium carbide, titanium nitride, carbonitride of titanium, oxy-carbide of titanium, oxy-nitride of titanium and oxy-carbo-nitride of titanium. An atomic ratio of one of carbon, nitrogen, carbon plus nitrogen, carbon plus oxygen, nitrogen plus oxygen and carbon plus nitrogen plus oxygen to titanium(Ti) in the coating is in the range of between 0.3 and 0.8. The coating contains a compound of TiX and a compound of Ti.sub.2 X wherein X is one of carbon and nitrogen or at least two of carbon, nitrogen and oxygen. The coating may further includes titanium metal. The coating having an average thickness of 1 to 10 .mu.m. There is also disclosed a process for producing such a surface-coated wear-resistant member.
