  • Publication number: 20180195264
    Abstract: In an LNG tank, a dike is formed by arranging precast blocks in the circumferential direction and layering the precast blocks in the vertical direction. Each of the precast blocks has loop joints on the top, bottom, left, and right side faces, and concrete is deposited between each two precast blocks adjacent in the circumferential direction and the vertical direction, whereby masonry joints are formed in the vertical direction and the circumferential direction. Prestress is imparted to the dike by PC steel members. The PC steel members are provided in the circumferential direction and the vertical direction of the dike, and are arranged so as to avoid the masonry joints in the circumferential direction and the vertical direction. Therefore, it is possible to construct the dike in a short time, and it is possible to provide a tank or the like that can reduce the construction period.

  • Patent number: 9803766
    Abstract: To provide a snap-fit type valve which can be easily attached to and removed from a piping base member. A snap-fit type valve includes a pair of mounting levers on side surfaces of a valve body so as to engage with a base member in a snap-fit manner, wherein the mounting lever includes a shoulder which extends from the valve body, an arm connected to a distal end of the shoulder and an engaging section formed at a distal end of the arm, and is elastically deformable in a direction in which a distance between the engaging sections increases, a first mounting lever which is one of the pair has the shoulder and the arm connected to each other via an arch shaped connecting section and is formed to be elastically deformable at a position of the connecting section, and a second mounting lever which is the other of the pair is formed to be deformable at a position of the shoulder, and has an operation section to elastically deform the shoulder.

  • Publication number: 20170230570
    Abstract: An information processing system that acquires first image data captured by a first camera unit disposed on a first side of a housing; acquires second image data captured by a second camera unit disposed on a second side of the housing, which is opposite to the first side of the housing; and modifies the second image data based on the first image data.

  • Patent number: 9727993
    Abstract: An in-image capturing unit captures an image of a subject in a direction facing a front surface of an image processing apparatus, as an in-image, and an out-image capturing unit captures an image of a subject in a direction facing a back surface of the image processing apparatus, as an out-image. A signal processing unit obtains a binary image as additional information, the binary image being obtained by binarizing the in-image, for example, and adds the additional information to image data of the out-image. Additionally, the signal processing unit combines the binary image serving as the additional information with the out-image when the out-image is reproduced, and displays the resultant image. In such a manner, information obtained from the in-image is added to the out-image as additional information, and thus it is possible to more effectively display an image and improve convenience.

  • Publication number: 20170049398
    Abstract: To allow an implantable device including an electronic circuit to be implanted in the head in a more preferable manner in terms of appearance and safely. This implantable device is used for a brain-machine interface or the like. A casing of an implantable device configured to be implanted in a human head has an outer convexity surface matching an external shape of a resected skull related to at least a craniotomy site of the artificial bone designed in accordance with a skull shape of each person in order to fill the craniotomy site. That is, the outer convexity surface of the artificial bone is provided with two functions: the original function of filling the craniotomy site as the artificial bone and a function of serving as the casing of the implantable device.

  • Patent number: 9309985
    Abstract: A high-frequency on-off valve includes a valve chamber communicating with an input flow path, output orifices opening into the valve chamber, a plate-shaped valve member disposed within the valve chamber such that the valve member is movable into and out of contact with output valve seats surrounding the output orifices, and an electromagnetic operating section that opens and closes the valve member. The high-frequency on-off valve opens and closes the plurality of output orifices by bringing the valve member into and out of contact with the output valve seats by utilizing an effect of an electromagnetic attraction force produced by the electromagnetic operating section and an effect of fluid pressure within the valve chamber. The valve has the plurality of output orifices that are long-hole-shaped.
