Patent number: 8881417Abstract: An angle measuring device 2 is configured to detect an angle formed between a measured line LX connecting a first position PL and a second position PR and a predetermined reference plane. The angle measuring device 2 includes: a case 10; a first pointing mechanism 30L for pointing the first position PL; a second pointing mechanism 30R for pointing the second position PR; moving mechanisms 60L and 60R that allow at least one of the first and second pointing mechanisms 30L and 30R to be movable; and a turning member angular scale mark 72 that indicates a moved amount of at least one of the first and second pointing mechanisms 30L and 30R by the moving mechanisms 60L and 60R. The moving mechanisms 60L and 60R move the first pointing mechanism 30L and the like so that a line segment connecting the first pointing mechanism 30L and the second pointing mechanism 30R includes the measurement reference plane or becomes parallel to the measurement reference plane.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2012Date of Patent: November 11, 2014Assignee: Yuki Trading Co., Ltd.Inventor: Koji Sano

Publication number: 20140281316Abstract: In response to a first copy command, a first copying unit writes a first dataset read out of a volatile storage device into a first continuous area and a fourth continuous area, as well as a second dataset read out of the volatile storage device into a second continuous area and a third continuous area. In response to a second copy command, a second copying unit reads the first dataset out of the first continuous area by making sequential access thereto, in parallel with the second dataset out of the third continuous area by making sequential access thereto. The second copying unit writes the first dataset and second dataset back into the volatile storage device.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 20, 2014Publication date: September 18, 2014Applicant: FUJITSU LIMITEDInventor: Koji SANO
