Patent number: 11542046Abstract: The present invention provides a device including an article carry-in mechanism (1A) that transports an article (w) to a packaging position (P), an article carry-out mechanism (1B) that carries the article (w) away from the packaging position (P), and a relaying mechanism (1C) disposed between the article carry-in mechanism (1A) and the article carry-out mechanism (1B). The relaying mechanism (1C) receives and supports the transported article (w) from below in a center part of the article (w) in a direction of its width.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2017Date of Patent: January 3, 2023Assignee: OSAKA SEALING PRINTING CO., LTD.Inventors: Akinori Ishizuka, Tetsuya Kishimoto, Kenichi Shibao

Patent number: 11001453Abstract: An article transport device includes: an input section configured to input a package; an input belt conveyor configured to transport, toward a seal attaching mechanism, the package input by the input section; a passage detection sensor configured to detect that the package transported by the input belt conveyor passes by a predetermined position; a suspending pusher configured to temporarily suspend a subsequent package while a package is processed by the seal attaching mechanism; and an article stopper configured to block the subsequent package in a traveling direction and suspend the subsequent package while the package is processed by the seal attaching mechanism. An article detection sensor is disposed upstream of the passage detection sensor. When the passage detection sensor detects passage of one package, the suspending pusher is caused to operate so that a subsequent package is temporarily suspended.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2017Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: OSAKA SEALING PRINTING CO., LTD.Inventors: Ryo Hironaka, Tetsuya Kishimoto, Kenichi Shibao

Patent number: 7925831Abstract: A journal write unit writes journal data into a third storage device. The journal data includes an identifier of a logical volume in a first storage device into which data has been written, information of a location in which the data is stored in the logical volume, update time which is current time acquired from a timing mechanism, and the data. A second write unit refers to update time of the journal data stored in the third storage device, selects journal data for which a difference between current time acquired from the timing mechanism and the update time is longer than a detection time stored in the third storage device, and writes the data into a place indicated by the location information, in a logical volume in the second storage device in the order of update time in the selected journal data.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2009Date of Patent: April 12, 2011Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Akira Murotani, Atsushi Ishikawa, Tetsuya Kishimoto

Patent number: 7107332Abstract: A storage controller determines a difference between a control table containing fiber channel port configuration of an upper node device and security information, and information fetched from a name server, thereby detecting replacement of a fiber channel port and correcting the control table. This enables data input/output in the same way as before fiber channel port replacement without consciously modifying the security information.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2001Date of Patent: September 12, 2006Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Akira Murotani, Tetsuya Kishimoto, Akemi Sanada
