摘要:
Two embodiments of monorail conveyor systems wherein the conveyor is operated by a drive motor that has its center of gravity positioned between the vertical sides of the monorail so as to improve stability and to permit the use of a single friction driven wheel. A gripping device is carried by the conveyor mechanism by a cable system so that it can be raised and lowered through a wide variety of heights.
摘要:
A freight system comprising a conveyor adapted to be driven along a monorail track. A frictional drive wheel of the conveyor engages the upper side of the track and various embodiments of reactive force creating means are positioned to engage the underside of the track to create improved frictional forces during ascendancy. All of these embodiments employ the weight of the unit to create the reactional force and in all embodiments there are positioned a pair of spaced apart guide rollers that engage the underside of the track. In some embodiments, these guides rollers are resiliently biased by either separate springs or by making the guide rollers themselves resilient. In some embodiments there is provided an intermediate fixed guide roller to limit the degree of relative movement between the conveyor and the track. In one embodiment, the guide rollers are suspended by a Y shaped lever that itself carries the load transmitted by the conveyor.
摘要:
A conveying apparatus for conveying work pieces along a path defined by a track that can have ascending and descending sections. An elevator mechanism is pivotally supported relative to a drive mechanism that cooperates with the track for moving work pieces from one place to another. The pivotal support of the elevator mechanism permits the articles being transported to be maintained in a horizontal position regardless of whether or not the device is ascending or descending. In addition, a shock absorbing mechanism acts upon the pivotal connection so as to avoid swinging movement caused by starting and stopping.

It is desired to perform assemble, disassemble, maintenance and the like, especially of a large site superconducting coil device, in a short time. The superconducting coil device includes a plurality of coil units arranged in a circle circumference to form a toroidal shape. Each of the plurality of coil units includes a cryostat and a superconducting coil stored in the cryostat, and has a first surface parallel with a radius of the circle circumference and a second surface parallel with the radius of the circle circumference and arranged in a first direction side of the circle circumference to the first surface. The first surface contacts with the second surface of a coil unit adjacent in one direction among the plurality of coil units. The second surface contacts with the first surface of a coil unit adjacent in other direction among the plurality of coil units.

An information processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires personal identification information for identifying a person, a control unit that generates correlation information by correlating the personal identification information acquired by the acquisition unit with an environmental impact which is an impact exerted on the environment by the person, and a storage unit that stores the correlation information generated by the control unit.
摘要:
The present invention provides an optical waveguide circuit which includes: a waveguide made of a material whose temperature coefficient of refractive index has a second-order component; a groove formed in a part of the waveguide; and a compensation material having a temperature coefficient of refractive index different from the temperature coefficient of refractive index of the waveguide, and in which a normal line of an interface between the groove and the waveguide, and an optical axis of light propagating through the waveguide intersect at a predetermined intersection angle, and the predetermined intersection angle is determined so as to reduce a second-order component of optical path length change of the waveguide due to the second-order component of temperature coefficient of the refractive index of the waveguide.
