  • Electronic apparatus and fuel cell system
    Patent number: 7875999
    Abstract: A PDA, which functions as an electronic unit, includes power supply which includes a fuel cell unit and an auxiliary power supply which is charged by an output of the fuel cell unit. A non-use state of the PDA is detected by non-use detection unit. Upon detection of the non-use state by the non-use detection unit, the output from the fuel cell unit is stopped and an output of the auxiliary power supply is shut off.

  • ELECTRONIC DEVICE
    Publication number: 20090230944
    Abstract: An electronic device is provided with an electronic device main unit, a power supply unit which has a power generator having a fuel cell unit, and supplies electric power to the main unit, and a switching unit which is connected between the main unit and the power supply unit, and controls turning on and off of the electric power supplied from the power generator to the main unit. The electronic device is provided with a power supply control signal detection unit to detect an external power supply control signal, and a control unit to control turning on and off of the power supply with the switching unit by detection of the power supply control signal with the power supply control signal detection unit.

  • Knit design system and method of making knitting data therefor
    Patent number: 5388050
    Abstract: An operator inputs design information including shape information and stitch structure information of a fabric to be knitted by a keyboard input unit and a coordinate input unit. An engineering workstation prepares a fabric image showing the state of a finished fabric on the basis of these information, displays it on a color display, and converts it to sequence data indicating the knitting operation sequence of the fabric (knitting machine) and control data indicating the control operation of the knitting machine, respectively.
