  • Publication number: 20240127196
    Abstract: A control system of a mobile body is provided with a data acquiring unit and a failure occurrence probability calculation unit. The data acquiring unit acquires data of a plurality of failure factors which may cause a failure on a mounted product mounted on a mobile body. The failure occurrence probability calculation unit calculates, based on data of the plurality of failure factors, a failure occurrence probability of components corresponding to the data of the plurality of failure factors.

  • Patent number: 8024067
    Abstract: Immediately before a robot 20 starts to move at a high speed, a monitoring area 53 is expanded in a returning direction Y, and absence of an obstacle in the monitoring area 53 is confirmed. During the high speed movement of the robot 20, the monitoring area 53 is expanded forward, so that a safety of an operator is secured, an effective use of a working station area can be made, and an improvement of productivity can be achieved.

  • Publication number: 20100021334
    Abstract: An element such as Cr is caused to dissolve sufficiently in a base-material metal (Cu) in a solid solution state at a high temperature and a material in a supersaturated condition is obtained by performing quenching. After that, a strain is applied to this material and this material is subjected to aging treatment at a low temperature simultaneously with or after the application of this strain. As a result of this, it is possible to obtain a copper alloy having properties desirable as an electrode material, for example, a hardness of not less than 30 HRB, an electrical conductivity of not less than 85 IACS %, and a thermal conductivity of not less than 350 W/(m·K).

  • Publication number: 20090120017
    Abstract: A holding device for a sash member (11) formed in a recessed shape in cross section. The device comprises rotating pressing members (47, 47) having overall lengths (L) longer than a distance (D) between the inner faces of both side walls (11a, 11b) of the sash member. The rotating pressing members are rotated by drive sources (44, 101) to press the inner faces of both side walls of the sash member by their both ends so as to rapidly hold the sash member. Also, the device comprises a sash positioning member (117) for positioning the sash member relative to the other sash member (16).

  • Publication number: 20050263937
    Abstract: An impermeable rubber hose is thinned for the purpose of reducing weight and costs. A rigid resin film is used as an intermediate layer. When the resin film is gradually rolled up into a cylindrical shape from a planar shape and fed to an extrusion head and rubber is simultaneously extrusion-molded inside and outside the cylindrical film, the film produces a break or a twist to make extrusion molding difficult. It is an object of the present invention to make simultaneous extrusion molding possible even in such a condition. To attain the above object, a thermoplastic resin film (5) which forms an intermediate layer (2) and of which the melting point is lower than the vulcanizing temperature is formed in a long belt-shape. Slits (7) are provided at fixed intervals on the right and left long side sections (8, 8) of the film (5) in the longitudinal direction.
