Abstract:
An appearance inspection apparatus has conveying means for conveying an inspection object and surface shape inspecting means for inspecting the surface shape of the inspection object. The surface shape inspection means has a slit beam irradiating section for irradiating a band-shaped slit beam on the surface of the inspection object, an area sensor camera for capturing images of the slit beam, first and second optical mechanisms for receiving reflected lights of the slit beam on the downstream and upstream sides in a conveyance direction, respectively, and guiding them to the area sensor camera, and a shape judging section for judging appropriateness of the surface of the inspection object based on images captured by the area sensor camera. Optical paths of the first and second optical mechanisms allow images of the reflected lights to be formed on the area sensor camera in a state of being aligned laterally.
Abstract:
A lever mechanism for connector fitting 1 includes a hold part 2 for holding a connector housing 4, and a handle part 3. When the handle part 3 is rotated and the connector housing 4 is thereby inserted into the connector housing 5, an engaging projection 24 is caused to retreat from the inner surface of a side plate 21 toward the connector housing 4, thereby removing the holding of the connector housing 4 by the hold part 2.
Abstract:
A mobile radio system comprises first through N-th radio base stations, where N represents a positive integer which is greater than one. On a start-up sequence of an n-th radio base station, a base station control apparatus transmits an n-th individual identifier as a station identifier, to the n-th radio base station to allocate the n-th individual identifier to the n-th radio base station, where n is a variable between one and N, both inclusive. The base station control apparatus transmits a transmission message signal having the n-th individual identifier as a transmission individual identifier to the n-th radio base station to carry out a link connection between the base station control apparatus and the n-th radio base station. In the n-th radio base station, an ATM reception section compares the transmission individual identifier with the n-th station identifier to abandon the transmission message signal when the transmission individual identifier is not coincident with the n-th station identifier. A CPU makes the ATM reception section become a reset state when the ATM reception section continues to abandon the message signal during a predetermined time duration.
Abstract:
Constitute a molecular recognition probe comprising: an electrochemically active group; an activity suppression group that suppresses an electrochemical activity of the electrochemically active group; a receptor area where a molecule of a target substance is specifically recognized; and a molecule area where a steric structure is changed as a result of molecular recognition; wherein the electrochemically active group is suppressed of its activity by the activity suppression group before the molecule is recognized and restores its activity after the molecule is recognized; or constitute a molecular recognition sensor by providing an anchor area on the molecular recognition probe and fixing it on a surface of an electrode.
Abstract:
The heating elements of a seat heater are used to warm the occupant seated on the seat and also used to detect the occupant. The configuration eliminates the need to dispose, in the vicinity of the seating surface of the seat, both a heater unit used for warming the occupant and a sensor for detecting the occupant. As a result, the structure of the seat is simplified to prevent deterioration in seating comfort, and at the same time, the occupant can be accurately detected and the heating elements can be efficiently utilized.
Abstract:
A refrigerator of the present invention includes a heat-insulating housing having an opening in a front surface, a partition wall (153) for dividing the heat-insulating housing into right and left parts, and a first storage room and a second storage room divided by the partition wall (153). In the refrigerator of the present invention, a temperature range of the first storage room is set higher than that of the second storage room. The partition wall (153) has a lighting unit (200) having a semiconductor light-emitting element (203) as a light source, on at least the first storage room side, and a heater (600) is disposed on the rear surface of the lighting unit (200). With this configuration, since inside of the storage room is bright, the visibility is good. Furthermore, since occurrence of dew condensation is suppressed, the reliability of lighting unit (200) is improved.
Abstract:
A control device 7 obtains a reformed carbon quantity C supplied to a reform reaction flow channel 21 from a supplied fuel quantity Qf and also obtains a reformed water quantity S supplied to the reform reaction flow channel 21 from a generated power quantity W. Further, it obtains a oxygen consumed quantity consumed through power generation in a fuel cell 3 from the generated power quantity W, a supplied oxygen quantity to be supplied to a cathode flow channel 33 from a supplied cathode gas quantity Qc, and a reformed oxygen quantity O to be supplied to the reform reaction flow channel 21 based on a difference between the supplied oxygen quantity and the consumed oxygen quantity. By correcting a reformed carbon quantity C (delivery of a fuel pump 51) in accordance with the reformed oxygen quantity O, each of O/C and S/C is kept in a target value range.
Abstract:
A lead frame includes a die stage; an inner lead provided near the die stage; and a bus bar provided between the die stage and the inner lead and supported by a hanging lead, wherein the hanging lead is inclined with respect to the inner lead, and a wire connection face of the bus bar is displaced with respect to a wire connection face of the inner lead in a direction of a frame thickness.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an image display technique for displaying a high-quality image by an image signal of appropriate color saturation. To this end, in the invention, color histogram information is detected from a color difference signal and average brightness information or brightness histogram information from a brightness signal. Based on the detected color histogram information and average brightness information or brightness histogram information, the demodulation axis of a color difference signal is adjusted, thereby controlling the color saturation (chroma) of an image. This enables display of an image having color intensity suited to the brightness and chroma of an image signal.
Abstract:
In a hydrogen generation device according to the invention, PSR reformers have a heat capacity smaller than that of the other PSR reformers. Therefore, the temperature of the catalyst reaches to a reforming-start temperature more quickly in the PSR reformers than in the other PSR reformers. When the hydrogen generation device is started and the reforming reaction is carried out, the mixture of gasoline vapor and water vapor is selectively and preferentially supplied to the PSR reformers so that the reforming reaction is carried out in the PSR reformers.
