  • Patent number: 8775374
    Abstract: [PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED] To reduce a server load when synchronizing data between a client and a server. [SOLUTION] A client 10 sends a synchronization request 41 containing an anchor point to a server 20. The server 20 sends synchronization information 42 to the client 10, which synchronization information including change profile information on data updated between the anchor point and a boundary point and change profile information on a change log after the anchor point. Based on the synchronization information 42, the client 10 sends a download request 43 to the server 20, and the server 20 sends download information 44 to the client 10 in response to the download request 43. The client 10 registers data contained in the download information 44 to a client database 11.

  • Patent number: 8678879
    Abstract: A first grinding head is provided on a base frame via a first movable body and a first grinding base. The proximal portion of the tilt arm is tiltably fitted in the housing of the grinding head. A measuring device is rotatably coupled to a distal portion of the tilt arm. A gauge and a measuring pin are coupled to the lower end of the measuring device, and the gauge is engaged with a crankpin of a crankshaft. A tilt center of the tilt arm is arranged on the same axis as the rotation center of the first grindstone ISA. When the tilt arm is tilted, the position of the measuring device is changed, accordingly. However, since the relational relationship between the first grindstone ISA and the gauge is not changed, the position of the gauge is easily adjusted in accordance with the diameter of the crankpin. Accordingly, a grinding machine is provided that simplifies the movement path of the gauge of the measuring device, thereby allowing the outer diameter of the workpiece to be quickly measured.

  • Patent number: 8556245
    Abstract: A work inspector and carrier includes a carrier unit (40, 50, 60) for carrying a workpiece from a carry-in area to a carry-out area, and an inspection unit (70) for performing a predetermined inspection on the workpiece. The carrier unit is formed so as to move the inspection unit (70) together with the workpiece in order to carry the workpiece from the carry-in area to the carry-out area while performing the inspection by the inspection unit. When carrying the workpiece from the carry-in area to the carry-out area, the inspection unit performs the predetermined inspection on the workpiece while being moved together with the workpiece. Thus, the overall time required for inspection and transportation can be reduced.
