摘要:
A torque measuring apparatus for detecting torque in a noncontacting state on the basis of the magnetostrictive amount of a rotary magnetic member for transmitting the torque which is detected by means of a magnetic sensor. The measuring apparatus comprises: a timing signal generator for dividing the rotational angle of the rotary magnetic member into a given number of segments and outputting a predetermined timing signal every time a rotational angle of the rotary magnetic member passes each segment; an offset signal generator for setting in advance for each segment an offset signal to be output from the magnetic sensor depending upon the rotational angle of the rotary magnetic member, and subsequently outputting an offset signal which corresponds to a respective segment on the basis of the timing signal; and a subtractor for subtracting the offset signal from the detection signal of the magnetic sensor at each segment, whereby the transmitted torque of the rotary magnetic member is measured on the basis of the output of the subtractor.

A stress detector including an AC power source for generating an AC symmetrical wave form voltage, an exciting coil driven by the AC power source for alternatingly magnetizing at least a portion of a ferromagnetic material to be measured in a predetermined direction, a detecting coil for detecting a magnetic flux generated due to the alternating magnetization, and an adder circuit for taking out a part of a voltage applied to the exciting coil, setting an amplitude and a phase of a wave form of the taken-out part of the voltage to preset values, adding the voltage thus obtained to a voltage induced in the detecting coil. The detector gives an output signal representative of a value of stress applied to the material to be measured as a variation either in amplitude or phase depending on the preset phase.
摘要:
A torque sensor for electrically detecting torque, such as the torque of an automobile engine, wherein a strain disk is provided in the path of torque transmission and the torque is magnetically detected in terms of the magnetostriction generated in the strain disk. The torque sensor comprises a magnetic rotating disk and a magnetic sensor disposed in the vicinity of and opposed to the strain disk. The magnetic sensor comprises a detection coil and an excitation coil oriented perpendicularly to each other with the excitation coil ordinarily being disposed outside of the detection coil. Supplying alternating current to the excitation coil causes an alternating field to be produced within the strain disk and the configuration of this alternating magnetic field is varied by the anisotropy of the strain caused within the strain disk by the transmitted torque. The variation in the configuration of the alternating magnetic field is noncontactingly detected by the detection coil, which outputs a corresponding electrical signal from which the torque can be determined with high accuracy.

An image processing apparatus captures a target image containing marker images and a recognition target range identified by a marker-image set including at least parts of the marker images. The image processing apparatus includes an image capturing section, a first detection section, a position estimation section and a second detection section. The first detection section detects one marker image as a reference marker image from a captured image. The position estimation section adopts a marker image, which is other than the reference marker image and is contained in at least one of marker-image sets containing the reference marker image, as a corresponding marker image. The position estimation section estimates a position of the corresponding marker image in the captured image based on a size of the detected reference marker image. The second detection section detects the corresponding marker image based on the estimated position of the corresponding marker image.

An image processing apparatus includes an image reception unit, a determination unit, a display unit, a correction accepting unit and a criterion modifying unit. The image reception unit receives a plurality of images. The determination unit determines whether each image received by the image reception unit corresponds to a separator image that represents a separator of a document based on a criterion and outputs a detection result. The display unit displays the detection result output by the determination unit. The correction accepting unit accepts correction of the displayed detection result in accordance with an operation performed by a user. The criterion modifying unit modifies the criterion based on the accepted correction. The determination unit re-determines whether each image received by the image reception unit corresponds to the separator image based on the criterion after the criterion is modified by the criterion modifying unit.
摘要:
An image processing apparatus includes an image capturing section, a marker-image defecting section, a judging section and an output section. The image capturing section captures at least a part of a target image, which includes a plurality of marker images and a recognition target range defined by the plurality of marker images, to acquire a captured image. The marker-image detecting section detects the marker images from the captured image. The judging section judges based on a detection result, whether or not the recognition target range is included in the captured image. When the judging section judges that the recognition target range is not included in the captured image, the output section outputs guidance for capturing the recognition target range.
