Abstract: A rotary switch section R includes a brush unit 60 rotatably operated by a lever 72 and a plurality of fixed contacts. The brush unit 60 includes a pair of main contact shoes 62, 63 and a single auxiliary contact shoe 64. The fixed contacts include a main contact 24 with which the main contact shoes 62, 63 come into contact with the lever 72 is at its neutral posture N, a pair of contacts 25L, 25R with which the auxiliary contact shoe 64 comes into contact first when the lever 72 is rotatably operated, and second contacts 26L, 26R with which one of the main contact shoes 62, 63 comes into contact subsequently.

Abstract: A pressure-receiving member that can be moved along an urging axial center, and a compression coil spring for urging the pressure-receiving member in the direction of an engaging body, are provided between the engaging body in an inside end position of an operating rod and a bottom wall part of a casing. A plurality of protruding pieces for restricting tilting by making contact with the pressure-receiving member is provided to the internal surface of a cylindrical part of a rotor that engages and integrally rotates with engaging pieces of the external periphery of the engaging body.

Abstract: A compound operation input device includes a casing; an operating lever accommodatable in the casing in such a manner that the lever is depressingly operable from a neutral position in a pressing-movement direction and swingingly operable from the neutral position in two opposite swinging directions intersecting the pressing-movement direction; a position detector accommodatable in the casing and adapted to output a signal in accordance with a swing of the lever; a pressing member facing an end surface of the lever on the pressing-movement direction side; and a press switch facing the pressing member with a depressible portion of the switch facing a direction substantially orthogonal to the pressing-movement direction and the swinging directions of the lever. The pressing member is adapted to move toward the switch when pressed by the end surface of the lever so as to depress the depressible portion of the switch.

Abstract: In a lateral pushing type push-button switch, a pair of guiding portions against which an actuating portion that is projected from a pressing portion of an operating member into a housing is buttable are disposed in a cover which is attached to an upper portion of the housing. The switch has a second actuating member which is formed in continuously with a peripheral portion that is accommodated in a peripheral side portion of the housing, and which is projected into the housing to be opposed to the actuating portion. When the operating member is pressed in a lateral direction, the actuating portion and the second actuating member are downward displaced to depress movable contacts to be contacted with stationary contacts.

Abstract: A rotary type pulse switch includes a movable electrode 57 having a plurality of contacting portions 57A formed in positions of the same radius from its rotation center, and a fixed electrode 50 disposed face to face with the movable electrode 57 and having a plurality of contacted portions 60 arranged in form of stepping stones on the same circumference as a rotation locus T of the contacting portions 57A. The fixed electrode 50 includes a first fixed electrode pattern 52A, a second fixed electrode pattern 52B and a common fixed electrode pattern 51, each of the fixed electrode patterns 51, 52A, 52B being in a mutually nonconductive state. The contacted portions 60 are arranged in such a positional relationship that a full insulation state occurs during rotation of the movable electrode 57 in which none of the contacting portions 57A contact the first fixed electrode pattern 52A, second fixed electrode pattern 52B or common fixed electrode pattern 51.

Abstract: A main body portion has fixed contacts and houses movable contacts. A lower electrode plate and upper electrode plate serving as the movable contacts are deformed at a time of a pressing operation. The upper electrode plate is contactable to the lower electrode plate and lower electrode plate brings contact pairs mounted in a center of the bottom inside the main body portion into conduction. On the bottom inside the main body portion, contacts serving as fixed contacts for a rotating operation are formed on the circumference of the same circle outside contact pairs for the pressing operation. A brush serving as the movable contacts is secured to a lever receiving rotating operational forces and brings contacts into conduction.

Abstract: Data on a group of technical documents having an attribute X and an attribute Y is acquired and a score corresponding to the data on the technical documents belonging to the combination of the attribute X and attribute Y is calculated. The attribute X is placed on the horizontal axis and the attribute Y is placed on the vertical axis. The scores are placed in a matrix manner. According to the scores belonging to each column of the arrangement in the matrix, a group of vectors Xj are generated. According to the scores belonging to each row, a group of vectors Yk are generated. For each of the groups of vectors Xj, Yk, vectors having higher association with each other are placed nearer to each other.
