An automatic washing machine includes a clutch float having external gear teeth. The clutch float is located around a shaft which is driven by an electric motor and to which an agitator is secured. The clutch float couples the shaft to an inner rotatable tub when its external gear teeth are engaged with internal gear teeth at the inner tub side in a dehydration step. The clutch float moves upwardly in subjection to buoyancy when water is supplied into the inner tub in a wash step. The external gear teeth of the clutch float are disengaged from the internal gear teeth so that the shaft is decoupled from the inner tub. The washing machine further includes a rotation restricting float which moves upwardly in subjection to the buoyancy in the wash step to couple the inner tub to an outer stationary tub and which decouples the inner tub from the outer tub in the dehydration step. A device delivers a position signal indicative of the position of the clutch float which is vertically movable. Based on the position signal, a control device controls the drive motor. The drive motor is of an outer rotor type and a motor control circuit is disposed in its stator.

A full automatic washing machine includes in an operation panel a display device together with power ON and OFF switches and a light-emitting diode serving as a pilot lamp. The display device is formed into the shape of a rectangular flat plate and has elasticity. The display device is constituted by a nematic curvilinear aligned phase (NCAP) liquid crystal panel and a reflecting plate. The display device includes a plurality of display sections for displaying a plurality of pieces of information about the washing operation. A membrane switch is disposed on the back of the display device. The membrane switch is turned on when the display device is depressed. The membrane switch has a plurality of key switches positioned so as to correspond to the display sections of the display device.

A washing machine includes a dehydrating tub whose interior is divided by rotational angle detecting elements into a plurality of circumferential areas. A period of time required for each area to pass a water pouring location is cumulated by a timer function of a microcomputer in a rinse-with-dehydration operation in which the dehydrating tub is rotated with water being supplied to the tub, A quantity of water poured into or contained in laundry in each area is determined on the basis of a cumulated value so that insufficiency in the quantity of poured water due to rotational unevenness of the dehydrating tub is solved. The washing machine further includes an area display which has area display sections corresponding to the areas and which displays the hydrous state of the laundry in each area, The area display also serves to display the rotational state of the dehydrating tub and an agitator,

A washing machine includes an outer tub, a rotatable tub rotatably mounted in the outer tub, an agitator mounted in the rotatable tub, a hollow tub shaft transmitting a rotating force to the rotatable tub, an agitator shaft inserted in the tub shaft for transmitting a rotating force to the agitator and having a lower end, an electric motor including a stator concentric with the agitator shaft and a rotor mounted on the lower end of the agitator shaft, a clutch for changing between a first mode in which the tub shaft is operatively coupled to the agitator shaft in a dehydration step so that the motor rotor, the agitator shaft and the tub shaft are rotated together and a second mode in which the tub shaft is decoupled from the agitator shaft in a wash step so that the tub shaft is prevented from being rotated with the motor rotor and the agitator shaft, and a mechanism housing mounted on an outer bottom of the outer tub. The tub shaft, the agitator shaft, the motor and the clutch are mounted on the mechanism housing to be composed into an integral mechanism unit.

An electricity storage device includes: a plurality of cells that are aligned in a predetermined direction; a pair of end plates that sandwich the plurality of cells in the predetermined direction; and a restraining member that extends in the predetermined direction, is fixed to the pair of end plates, and exerts a restraining force on the plurality of cells in the predetermined direction via the end plates. Each of the end plates includes a first plate and a second plate. The first plate has a plurality of ribs on a surface that faces the adjacent cell and is formed of insulating material. The second plate is fixed to the first plate on a side opposite to the surface that faces the adjacent cell and is formed of material stronger than the insulating material for the first plate.

Provided is a liquid crystal display device 10 that divides “3m” video signal lines into groups of three lines according to an order of arrangement, and drives the video signal lines in the group within one horizontal period in a time-division manner. A pixel array 17 is configured such that columns each including pixel circuits for left eye 21 arranged along a vertical direction of a display screen and columns each including pixel circuits for right eye 22 arranged along the vertical direction of the display screen are arranged along a horizontal direction of the display screen. When driving the video signal lines in a time-division manner, a writing order to pixel circuits 18 within one horizontal period and a polarity of a voltage to be applied to the pixel circuits 18 are changed every two scanning signal lines. This improves image quality of both an image for left eye and an image for right eye, thereby improving image quality in stereoscopic display.

Provided is a display device that, even if noise has been generated due to a signal for image display being applied to a display unit, can acquire correct position information free of the influence of noise from a touch panel unit. The display device includes a display unit having a plurality of electrodes for image display, a display control unit (22) that controls image display performed by the display unit by applying, to the electrodes of the display unit, electrode driving signals whose voltage levels change with a predetermined cycle, a touch panel unit that detects an input position from the outside, and a touch panel control unit (21) that acquires a position detection signal by applying a scan signal to the touch panel unit. The touch panel control unit (21) applies the scan signal three or more times in a cycle in which the voltage levels of the electrode driving signals change and compares the obtained position detection signals corresponding to the scan signals, determines position information indicated by two or more of the position detection signals that indicate the same result as being correct position information, and outputs the determined position information as a position signal.

摘要:
A curved state and other states of a wiring harness are displayed by dividing wires into wire segments and applying a polygon processing, and are compared with a 3D shape of the wiring harness represented by a reference layout data displayed as a background image. As compared to a case where a trial product is produced, an operation efficiency can be considerably improved.
