Abstract: A video management apparatus includes a video database for holding a plurality of pieces of video information each associated with an image position, a geographic information database for holding a plurality of pieces of geographic information each indicating a position of a different one of spots on a map, and a controller. The controller extracts spots located within a first range from a current position as a first spot group, based on the current position and the plurality of pieces of geographic information. Further, the controller extracts spots located within a second range from the image position as a second spot group, based on the image position and the plurality of pieces of geographic information. Then, the controller selects video information from the plurality of pieces of video information, based on a similarity degree of the second spot group with respect to the first spot group.

Abstract: A cradle device of the present disclosure includes a tray, a main body, a pop-up mechanism, and a magnet. The pop-up mechanism is disposed on the main body and moves the tray from a stowing position to a taking-out position. The magnet is disposed in the main body at a side opposite to a mounting face of the tray. In a case of taking out the handset is, the magnet attracts the handset toward the tray from the stowing position to the taking-out position and moves to a predetermined retracting position when the handset is taken out of the tray. In a case of returning the handset to the tray, the magnet moves from the retracting position to an attracting position at which the handset is attracted toward the tray when the handset is pushed into the stowing position.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to surely provide a projection of burr by forming an appropriate gap needed to set a cast-in member to a cast-in mold, and by completely closing the gap when the cast-in mold is clamped, and to correct a cast-in positioning (axis mating) to a die-cast component by a clamping operation of the die-cast mold, regardless of a dimensional precision of the cast-in member upon a manufacture. A steel plate cast-in member 2, which is wrapped cast except for a bonding portion 2b to a steel plate bonding member 3 upon molding a die-cast component 1, has a mold contact portion 4 at a boundary between a cast-in portion 2a wrapped cast with a die-cast component 1 and the bonding portion 2b. When a cast-in mold A is clamped, the mold contact portion 4 is brought into intimate butting contact with the cast-in mold A, whereby a gap S between the cast-in member 2 and the cast-in mold A, i.e., a cavity a, is closed. Thus, a projection of burr is prevented.

Abstract: [Problem] To provide a vehicular arm component which is easily manufactured and advantageous in reducing a cost without causing a steep change in a cross section. [Solution] A vehicular arm component is formed by subjecting a workpiece (W), the workpiece being a flat plate extending in a plane formed by a first direction and a second direction orthogonal to the first direction, to press processing in stages so as to butt and joint two side surfaces in the second direction.

Abstract: A blood analyzer that can check whether a cap is in place or not and can set a mixing mode at the same time when the specimen container is inserted. A specimen container holder holds a specimen container. A holder driving part can rotatably drive the specimen container holder around an axis arranged in a generally horizontal direction. A gradient angle detecting part detects a gradient angle of the specimen container in the specimen container holder, and a control unit controls the holder driving. The control unit receives an angle detecting signal from the gradient angle detecting part, judges whether or not a blood specimen in the specimen container is to be mixed in accordance with the gradient angle and accordingly controls the holder driving part.
