  • Patent number: 11361115
    Abstract: To provide a design assistance system, a design assistance program, and a design assistance method which are capable of reducing or eliminating the burden on a designer of a structure when designing the structure. A design assistance system 10 includes an object recognizing unit 112 and an interference determining unit 113. The object recognizing unit 112 recognizes an object existence area which is an existence area of a different object A2 from the structure A1 on a three-dimensional coordinate system in accordance with information including the position of the object A2 on the three-dimensional coordinate system which has been specified through an input unit 12. The interference determining unit 113 determines the presence or absence of interference between each of plurality of members and the object A2 based on respective member existence areas of the plurality of members and the object existence area.

  • Publication number: 20190340198
    Abstract: When a display part to be set as a similar part search target is selected from among a plurality of display parts displayed on a design screen, an operation of selecting an executing button for a single-part search is performed on a recommender execution selecting screen, and an operation of selecting a YES button is performed on a search execution confirmation screen. The model number of the one display part being selected is extracted, a server is accessed via the Internet, and similar part search data including the extracted model number is transmitted. A CPU of the server refers to similar part data stored in a memory, and retrieves similar part model numbers associated with the extracted model number. The part data of the extracted model number and the part data of all of the retrieved similar part model numbers are transmitted from the server to a user terminal.

  • Patent number: 4778271
    Abstract: In a photoelectric type measuring method and device wherein a workpiece to be measured is scanned by parallel scanning ray beams for scanning in one direction, aforesaid ray beams after the scanning are received by light receiving elements and a time length of a dark portion or a bright portion generated due to the obstruction of a portion of the ray beams by workpiece to be measured in response to output signals from the light receiving elements is detected so as to obtain the dimension in the scanning direction of the workpiece to be measured, the aforesaid ray beams are split into ray beams polarized in directions different from each other, the workpiece to be measured is scanned in such a condition that the two ray beams are relatively shifted so that the two ray beam may be partially overlapped in the scanning directions thereof and light receiving signals corresponding to the two ray beams after the scanning are processed to detect and edge of the workpiece to be measured.

  • Patent number: 4637680
    Abstract: This disclosure depicts a ray beam converter having a rotary mirror driven by a motor, for reflecting ray beams to convert the same into rotary scanning ray beams in an optical measuring instrument wherein the ray beams from a beam generator are converted into the rotary scanning ray beams to be scanned in one direction and dimensions of a workpiece to be measured are measured by utilization of the rotary scanning ray beams. A rotor of the motor is rotatably supported by bearings at a plurality of positions in a direction of the rotary axis of the motor, and the rotary mirror is integrally formed on the rotor at a portion of the rotor supported by at least two bearings to each other out of the bearings. The rotary mirror is integrally formed on the rotor at a portion of the rotor supported by at least two bearings, and the rotor is rotatably coupled to a spindle affixed to a stator of the motor through the bearing.

  • Patent number: 4521113
    Abstract: An optical measuring device wherein a workpiece being measured is interposed between a parallel scanning ray beam generating source and a light receiving element, and dimensions of the workpiece being measured is measured from the time length of a dark portion or a bright portion generated due to the obstruction of the parallel scanning ray beams by the workpiece being measured. The aforesaid parallel scanning ray beam generating source comprises: a beam generator; a rotary mirror for reflecting and converting the incident ray beams into rotary scanning ray beams; a ray beam transmitting mechanism for dividing the ray beams from the beam generator in terms of time or quantity and causing the ray beams thus divided to incide into the rotary mirror at a predetermined incident angles; and a collimator lens for converting the rotary scanning ray beams from the rotary mirror into parallel scanning ray beams.
