Abstract: A reuse determination system of a power unit for propelling a vehicle includes an acquisition section configured to acquire operation history data including torque data and number of rotations data of the rotating electrical machine, an estimation section configured to estimate a load of each of a plurality of components constituting the power unit, based on at least one of the torque data or the number of rotations data, and a determination section configured to compare, for each of the plurality of components constituting the power unit, each load estimated by the estimation section with a threshold set for each of the plurality of components and determine that the power unit is to be reused, when the load of each of the plurality of components estimated by the estimation section is equal to or less than the threshold set for each of the plurality of components.

Abstract: An image pickup apparatus includes an image pickup device, a display device including, in a finder loupe visual field, an image display region and an image display outside region, and a display controller configured to control the display device. The display controller determines a difficulty degree of visibility of a boundary between the image display region and the image display outside region and controls the display device to draw a boundary display when the difficulty degree is equal to or larger than a predetermined value and not to draw the boundary display when the difficulty degree is smaller than the predetermined value.

Abstract: An imaging system includes a sound recording apparatus and an imaging apparatus that is connected to the sound recording apparatus and records, as moving-image sounds, sounds collected by the sound recording apparatus. The imaging apparatus detects whether the sound recording apparatus has been connected thereto. Upon detecting that the sound recording apparatus has been connected to the imaging apparatus, the imaging apparatus sets a sound-recording condition associated with the sound recording apparatus as a sound-recording condition for the imaging apparatus in a sound recording process and records sounds under the sound-recording condition that has been set.

Abstract: If a sleeve of a double cone-type synchronizer is not smoothly engaged with a dog gear because of getting caught by the dog gear, the dog gear, as pressed by the sleeve, may lean with a spline-connecting part of the dog gear to a transmission gear as a fulcrum, so that an inner ring of a blocking ring may be damaged by being squeezed between the dog gear and a hub. However, the transmission gear includes: a tooth surface portion having tooth surfaces formed on one axial end side of the transmission gear; and a contact portion formed on the opposite axial end side, and abutting against the dog gear. The contact portion extends radially outward of a through-hole of the dog gear, thereby preventing the dog gear, as pressed by the sleeve, from leaning toward the transmission gear so as to prevent damage of the inner ring.

Abstract: A camera film feed device is provided for enabling freely loadable placement of a film magazine which has a takeup shaft on which a film is wound and which has a film leader protruding from a film feeding opening. The camera film feed device includes a magazine chamber into which the film magazine is loaded, a fork which joins in mating fashion with the takeup shaft of the film magazine loaded into the magazine chamber, a takeup spool which is positioned on a side of a photographing aperture opposite the magazine chamber and which takes up the film, a sprocket which is positioned between the magazine chamber and the takeup spool, and a control circuit which controls the operations of the fork, takeup spool and sprocket.

Abstract: A camera in which a magazine can be loaded into a magazine chamber in the direction along a winding shaft thereof in a state in which a film leader is wound thereon. During such magazine loading, the film leader is inserted along the outer periphery of a film guide disposed in the magazine chamber. After the magazine has been loaded, the film leader is temporarily rewound into the magazine. Then, it is fed toward a spool chamber. The film leader that has reached the spool chamber is advanced by the spool and film loading is completed. By employing such a loading mechanism, it is possible to provide a camera incorporating a film loading mechanism with a simple structure which is capable of reliable film loading and making it possible, in cameras using 135-type film magazine, to load a magazine in the axial direction thereof.
