  • Patent number: 7796724
    Abstract: An X-ray fluoroscopic system which is capable of highly accurately performing tilting tracking or rotational tracking by a simple operation in an observation work without inputting a distance from the surface of a table and an observed point of an object of fluoroscopy and without performing a calibration operation for obtaining the distance in advance.

  • Patent number: 7772491
    Abstract: In a structure of interconnection fitting of division protectors fittingly interconnected to form a harness protector, the division protectors have interconnection fitting portions at their end portions. Retaining projections are formed at one of the interconnection fitting portions which are to be fittingly interconnected, and elastic retaining arms are formed at the other interconnection fitting portion. The elastic retaining arm is so formed as to produce an urging force outwardly in a widthwise direction which is generally perpendicular to a fitting/disconnecting direction and also to a longitudinal direction. Elastic deformation limitation walls for limiting elastic deformation of the elastic retaining arm are formed near respectively to the retaining projection and the elastic retaining arm so as to abut against each other upon movement in a predetermined amount in the widthwise direction.

  • Patent number: 7735877
    Abstract: A connection structure for a resin pipe, in which leakage of fluid from between a metal pipe and the resin pipe fitted on the metal pipe is prevented for a long time. In the connection structure, at least two diameter-expanded sections (10, 11) are formed with a spacing on an end region of a metal pipe (1), the spacing between the two diameter-expanded sections (10, 11) functioning as a circumferential groove (12) in which a seal ring (SR) is received, and a resin tube (2) is fitted up to a position beyond a far side diameter-expanded section (11) of the two diameter-expanded sections (10, 11). A back ring (BR) is received in the circumferential groove (12) together with the seal ring (SR). The diameter-expanded sections (10, 11) of the metal tube (1) are formed by bulging or spool shape-forming process.
