Abstract: A regulator is provided with a first pressure reducing valve, a second pressure reducing valve, and a load adjusting part. A gas fuel pressure in a fuel tank is reduced to 1.4 MPa from 20 MPa by the first pressure reducing valve, and then reduced to 0.2 to 0.65 MPa by the second pressure reducing valve. In the second pressure reducing valve, the pressure of the gas fuel is reduced to 0.2 to 0.65 MPa from 1.4 MPa, so that the resistive force of a second O-ring for sealing a first middle-pressure chamber and a second pressure chamber can be made smaller. A sliding resistance between a needle and the second O-ring is reduced. An electromagnetic attracting force generated by the load adjusting part can be made smaller. Electricity consumed by the load adjusting part can be reduced and the regulator can be made smaller.

Abstract: A tool replacing device including a case member is disclosed. In the case member, engaging balls supported between a holding member and a movable member is projected into the holding member by an extruding surface of the movable member, resiliently urged by a second spring, thereby allowing a tool to be engaged. By pressing the movable member against a resilient urging force of the second spring, the engaging balls can be moved in the movable member. Also, since there are provided shock sensors for detecting a moving distance of the holding member holding the tool, collision or the like of the tool can be detected. Even if power supply is stopped, the present tool replacing device can hold the tool.

The sintered bearing member includes: an outer diameter allowing clearance fit of the sintered bearing member into the fitting hole of the outer member. The production method further includes: inserting the sintered bearing member into the fitting hole of the outer member and inserting a columnar core rod into an inner peripheral surface of the sintered bearing member; and compressing the sintered bearing member in an axial direction.

Abstract: A technology for structuring a three-dimensional image in a more accurate position spatially even when an ultrasonic transducer unit does not perform oscillation scanning at completely constant angular velocity is disclosed. According to the technology, an oscillation angle detection means 104 detects an oscillation angle of an ultrasonic transducer unit 1, and a three-dimensional image processing means 11 forms a three-dimensional image based on the oscillation angle detected by the oscillation angle detection means and image data outputted from an ultrasonic receiving means 4.

Abstract: A wire feeding unit for feeding a welding wire in a torch cable of a welding robot, the torch cable passing through the inside of an upper arm in its direction, includes a body member, which is mounted on an inner periphery of the upper arm in a state of being freely pivotable around the axis of the upper arm, and to which the torch cable is installed, and a feed roller mounted to the body member in a state of being freely rotatable around an axis orthogonal to the axis of the arm. Here, the welding wire exposed out of the torch cable is in contact with the circumferential surface of the feed roller and is fed by the rotation of the feed roller in a direction of the axis of the upper arm. According to the configuration like this, when an arm is pivoted, the torch cable passing through the arm is able to be prevented from being twisted.

Abstract: A card (which is displayed on a screen and is thus operated, and has a single function) is output to a display of an information processing device through a shell (an OS of the card and a seal), and the seal (a display associated with an action such as an output) can be put on a part of the card. The shell put on the card is written to a seal DB and the seal put on the card is displayed in accordance with information of the seal DB when the card is to be output. The seal corresponds to a seal application depending on each type. When an object of the card having the seal put thereon is coincident with a predetermined condition, the corresponding seal application is activated by the shell so that a predetermined action such as a notice or an output of a ring tone is executed.
