Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system for supporting a movement of a moving body in a predetermined area. The system acquires an image captured by an infrastructure camera such that the image includes a plurality of markers arranged in the predetermined area. The system compares the image acquired this time and the image acquired previous time. The system detects a position change marker among the plurality of markers whose position in the image acquired previous time changes from that in the image acquired this time. The system determines that the infrastructure camera is out of position when it is detected that number of the position change marker is equal to or more than a predetermined number. The system determines that the infrastructure camera is not out of position when it is detected that number of the position change marker is less than the predetermined number.

Abstract: A sheet feeding device includes a feeding roller pair, a detecting portion, a first changing portion, a second changing portion, and a controller for controlling the first changing portion and the second changing portion. The controller starts a first feeding operation for feeding a sheet toward the obliquely feeding roller pair in a nipping state of the feeding roller pair and then starts a second feeding operation for feeding the sheet for abutting a side end of the sheet against the reference member in the nipping state of the obliquely feeding roller pair. The controller changes, after the first feeding operation is started and before the second feeding operation is started, a start timing of the second feeding operation on the basis of a detection result of a position of the side end of the sheet detected by the detecting portion.

Abstract: A contact structure causing a first electric device to be electrically connected to a second electric device includes first terminals and second terminals. The second terminals include contact projections to be electrically connected to the first terminals, and cleaning projections located closer to an opening side of a fitting part of the second electric device than the contact projections to be brought into contact with the first terminals. The contact structure is configured such that the contact projections are not in contact with a surface of an outer case of the first electric device or surfaces of the first terminals before the cleaning projections climb over the first terminals. The contact structure is also configured such that the contact projections are brought into contact with the surfaces of the first terminals after the cleaning projections climb over the first terminals.

Abstract: A phase locked loop circuit comprises a charge pump fed with a phase error output signal; a loop filter charged or discharged with an output of the charge pump; an oscillator, an oscillating frequency of which is controlled by a voltage of the loop filter; and a frequency/phase comparator having a switching function which is fed with a reference signal and an output signal of the oscillator and outputs the phase error output signal; the frequency/phase comparator being configured to, based on a lock detection signal, switch between comparing frequencies by detecting rising edges of the reference signal and the comparison signal to detect a phase difference between the reference signal and the comparison signal, and comparing phases by detecting voltage levels of the reference signal and the comparison signal to detect a phase difference between the reference signal and the comparison signal.

Abstract: A mobile terminal, which is registered to either a first mobile communication network or a second communication network, determines whether it is possible to register to the first mobile communication network on the basis of control information received from the second mobile communication network. Then, the mobile terminal attempts to register to the first mobile communication network a predetermined number of times in a case that it is determined that it is possible to register to the first mobile communication network.

A reinforcement member is fixedly disposed in a manner to traverse the hollow of the roof rail. The roof panel is made of plastic and integrally formed with a boss section projecting downwardly. A mounting bolt is inserted in the boss section and projects downwardly from the boss section. The boss section passes through the outer panel and projects downwardly near the reinforcement member, so that the mounting bolt is fixedly secured to the reinforcement member thereby to securely mount the roof panel on the vehicle body.
