Abstract: The present application relates to an eyepiece for use with a viewing device. The eyepiece is configured to change the distance between a first edge of the eyepiece and a lens near a second edge of the eyepiece. The eyepiece includes a first element having a pin extending therefrom and a rotational axis having a first axial direction and a second axial direction. The eyepiece further includes a second element having a groove, the second element sharing the rotational axis and configured to rotate about the rotational axis relative to the first element. The groove comprises a first pin movement section and a second pin movement section. The groove further comprises a pin stopping section, the pin stopping section located between the first pin movement section and the second pin movement section. The pin stopping section is configured to prevent the second element from rotating relative to the first element.

Abstract: The present invention is a Twist Up device that consists of multiple pin-movement sections and pin-stopping sections. The pin-movement sections have Twist Up adjustment grooves in multiple steps, and these adjustment grooves allow the Twist Up ring to move the Twist Up adjustment pins in the direction of the set grooves. The pin-stopping sections are positioned next to the pin-movement sections so that they can stop the Twist Up adjustment pins to prevent the Twist Up ring to move in the direction of the set grooves.

Abstract: The invention aims at providing a pair of binoculars making it possible to easily perform a focusing operation and a diopter adjustment, and efficiently perform an assembling operation. The present invention provides a pair of binoculars having a pair of supporters for supporting adjustment lenses provided between a pair of ocular optical systems and a pair of objective optical systems so as to be capable of moving forward and backward along the optical axis, a focusing gear for performing a focusing operation by moving said pair of supporters forward or backward at the same time in the direction of optical axis, a diopter adjuster for performing a diopter adjustment by moving one supporter forward or backward in the direction of optical axis as keeping the other supporter stationary, and a focusing and diopter adjusting unit having a changeover gear for changing over the focusing gear and the diopter adjuster to each other.

Abstract: The invention relates to a failure detection system for an electric power steering system. The system detects ON failure of one of first to fourth switching elements of an H-bridge circuit of the electric power steering system. The system detects ON failure by measuring the value of the current and the fluctuation in the value of the current. Therefore, the system can detect ON failures even when the value of the current is within normal ranges.

Abstract: In an electric power steering system, during initial processing after an ignition switch is turned on, when a main CPU completes calculation of an offset voltage, it sends an offset voltage calculation request signal to a sub CPU. When the time from sending the offset voltage calculation request signal until the main CPU receives an offset voltage calculation completion signal from the sub CPU is within a predetermined period of time, it is determined that a communication function between the main CPU and the sub CPU and an offset voltage calculation function of the sub CPU are normal, and at the same time it is possible to maintain synchronism of the offset voltage calculation in the main CPU with the offset voltage calculation in the sub CPU. Thus, it is possible to carry out in a short time a check of the communication function between the main CPU and the sub CPU, while maintaining the synchronism in the offset voltage calculations by the two CPUs when calculating an actual motor current.
