Abstract: a delivery support apparatus includes: an individual detection unit that detects a registered individual based on an image transmitted from a camera, an information specifying unit that specifies a destination of the individual, a schedule at the destination, and a baggage to be received at the destination for the individual detected by the individual detection unit, a notification unit that notifies a terminal device at the destination that the specified baggage will be received by the individual according to the specified schedule.

Abstract: A poseable toy animal including at least a pair of flexible limbs formed in part by skeletal-like structure including a pair of flexible members extending downwardly from a generally inverted U-shaped frame including a pair of downwardly extending support members and formed in part by flexible material surrounding the flexible members and which flexible members and flexible material may be bent into different shapes to provide the animal with different poses.

Abstract: In construction of a wire winder for an elastic stator, a nozzle guiding a wire is driven for a compound three dimensional movement relative to the stator to wind the wire about terminal pins on the stator right after formation of the field winding.

Abstract: In a wire winding machine, combined three-dimensional movement of a wire dispensing nozzle and a main post on which a stator core is held provides sequential and automatic winding of a wire about the terminal pins of the stator core and formation of field windings thereon. The wire winding machine obtains a remarkable reduction in the required operational steps and substantially reduced production costs.

Abstract: A crank 6 is connected to a prime shaft 8, a differential gear unit is coupled to the prime shaft 8, nozzles 13 and 14 for passage of wires W1 and W2 for winding are mounted to a tube 12, a rotation stopper 15 is coupled to one of facing gears of the differential gear unit, a guide rail 16 is arranged for parallel movement with the tube 12, and rotation of the crank 6 provides the nozzles 13 and 14 with swing angle and lateral displacement. The nozzles 13 and 14 perform winding while rotating around field cores 2 and 3 corresponding to the rotation angle .theta. of the crank 6.
