  • Publication number: 20230345924
    Abstract: A fishing reel comprises a clutch mechanism that switches a spool between a driving force transmission state and a driving force interruption state, and return mechanisms that causes the clutch mechanism that has been brought into the driving force interruption state to return to the driving force transmission state. The clutch mechanism comprises a clutch operating member. The return mechanisms comprises clutch returning rotators and kick members that engage with/disengage from the clutch returning rotators and return the clutch operating member brought into the driving force interruption state to the driving force transmission state. A reel body comprises fixing plates that retain at least one of a handle shaft and the clutch operating member. The fixing plates function as restriction portions that guide and restrict the movement of the kick members.

  • Publication number: 20230345923
    Abstract: A clutch mechanism has a clutch operating member that is rotated by an operation of a clutch lever and is brought into a driving force interruption state. A return mechanism causes the clutch mechanism that has been brought into the driving force interruption state to return to a driving force transmission state. The return mechanism comprises a returning gear that is provided on a motor shaft of an electric motor, a clutch returning rotator that meshes with the returning gear and rotates, and a kick member that is rotatably supported by the clutch operating member, rotates in conjunction with rotation of the clutch operating member to engage with/disengage from the clutch returning rotator, and causes the clutch operating member that has been brought into the driving force interruption state to return to the driving force transmission state. The clutch returning rotator and the kick member are disposed between a spool shaft and the motor shaft.

  • Publication number: 20230343064
    Abstract: A control apparatus of an image capture system that performs image capture using an image displayed by a display apparatus as a background is provided. The control apparatus assigns capturing periods of different timings to respective image capture apparatuses of the image capture system and controls the image capture apparatuses so that each of the image capture apparatuses performs image capture during the capturing period assigned thereto. The control apparatus further causes the display apparatus to, during each of the capturing periods, display an image corresponding to a position and an orientation of the image capture apparatus to which the capturing period has been assigned.

  • Patent number: 11678061
    Abstract: An image pickup apparatus capable of suppressing occurrence of a delay in an exposure control when the exposure control is performed by selectively changing an exposure condition among a plurality of exposure conditions. In a transition period from when the exposure control for changing a first exposure condition according to a target exposure at a time of image pickup of the subject is started until the exposure reaches the target exposure, another exposure condition other than the first exposure condition is changed so that an exposure changing speed of the first exposure condition is compensated for. When the exposure is changeable based on a program diagram and when the first exposure condition is changed, control is provided so that a second exposure condition to be changed immediately after changing the first exposure condition is used to compensate for the exposure changing speed of the first exposure condition.
