  • Publication number: 20240042321
    Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable storage medium according to the present invention stores a computer program causing a control unit of a game device, which provides a soccer game that includes a normal shot that follows a rule that the movement speed and climb angle of a ball increase according to the duration of an operation of a left operation button of a controller, to function as the following device. That is, the computer program causes the control unit to function as a device that, when an R2 button of the controller has been pressed, decides, according to the duration of the operation of the left operation button, the movement speed and climb angle of the ball in accordance with a rule which differs from that of the normal shot, and controlling display so that the ball moves at the decided movement speed and the like, as a power shot of a kind similar to the normal shot.

  • Patent number: 9616332
    Abstract: A game control device includes a direction obtaining unit, a motion data selection unit, and a user character control unit. In a case where a direction designating operation is performed by a user, the direction obtaining unit obtains a relative direction of the direction designated through the direction designating operation relative to the forward direction of a user character. The motion data selection unit selects any of motion data correlated to a type to which the relative direction obtained by the direction obtaining unit belongs from among the motion data stored in a unit that stores a type of a relative direction relative to the forward direction of the user character and a plurality of kinds of motion data so as to be correlated to each other. The user character control unit causes the user character to perform a motion in accordance with the selected motion data.

  • Patent number: 4725050
    Abstract: A multi-section folding apparatus has two outer formers which are respectively provided on both sides of a pair of inner formers which are defined by a pair of upper and/or lower formers of a vertical two-stage former folding machine in such a manner that the outer formers are positioned at the same level as that of the inner formers and with a slight spacing provided therebetween, thereby forming a quadruple former assembly. Two groups of turn bar mechanisms are disposed in such a manner that the course of each of the halved traveling sheets which are obtained by halving a traveling sheet and which are fed toward the two inner formers along their respective ones of the four travel lanes is changed to any one of the other three travel lanes. It is therefore possible to issue a newspaper made up of six to eight sections by means of straight folding without lowering the production speed.

  • Patent number: 4281595
    Abstract: A pair of three cylinders train units and a four cylinder train unit are provided in relationship such that a pair of impression cylinders of the former are adjacent to a pair of blanket cylinders of the latter, respectively.The blanket cylinders of the latter are switched between a first position in which the blanket cylinders make contact with each other and with their respective plate cylinders and a second position in which the blanket cylinders are isolated from each other, make contact with their respective plate cylinders and with their respective impression cylinders of the three cylinder train units.The switching between extreme positions can be completed in one motion by an angle increase shifting mechanism using gears which are added to the switching means.Throw-off means for the blanket cylinders can be diverged independently and branchingly from each extreme position by a pin clutch mechanism which is added to the switching means.

  • Patent number: 4218972
    Abstract: In a mechanism for selectively obtaining two extreme positions of printing cylinders, i.e. a contact of four cylinders except an impression cylinder and a contact of five cylinders including the impression cylinder, through effecting angular displacements of eccentric sleeves attached to respective printing cylinders simultaneously by a common link mechanism, an angle increase shifting mechanism is interposed between the starting end of the link mechanism and the end of an actuator. Whereby, the pair of printing cylinders can be directly shifted from one to the other extreme positions by a single stroke of the actuator.A member attached to a main shaft of the angle increase shifting mechanism is divided into three pieces of a front piece, center piece and a rear piece, and the center piece is adapted to be selected engaged by and disengaged from the front and rear pieces by means of a pin clutch mechanism.
