Patent number: 9458980Abstract: This invention is to provide an in-vehicle interior light unit that protects a base from a thermal damage attributable to a thermal factor and reduces cost. This is achieved by adopting a general-purpose compact bulb cassette which does not have a heat shielding function although the bulb cassette still uses a heat-resistant resin as the material thereof, and the thermal deformation due to the radiant heat from a bulb is prevented by a heat shield plate integrally formed when punch-molding a bus bar, which is formed of a conductive metal member. Thus, the radiant heat from the bulb is blocked by the heat shield plate.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2013Date of Patent: October 4, 2016Assignee: KABUSHIKI KAISHA T AN TInventors: Hisashi Soga, Yuji Shimoda, Hiroshi Ochiai

Patent number: 9176745Abstract: A peripheral device is selectively connected to an information processing apparatus including a first operating system and an information processing apparatus including a second operating system whose execution file is incompatible with that of the first operating system. The storage unit of the peripheral device stores a control program to be executed by the information processing apparatus. The control program includes a first control program to be executed on the first operating system and a second control program to be executed on the second operating system. After the peripheral device transmits the control program to the information processing apparatus, the information processing apparatus writes instruction information in the storage unit of the peripheral device in accordance with the control program. The peripheral device operates based on the instruction information.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2012Date of Patent: November 3, 2015Assignee: CANON KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Haruhiko Shirota, Hirokazu Higuchi, Hiroshi Ochiai
