Abstract: It is necessary to secure a workspace for connection between jumper wires and a wire connecting material. A rotary electric machine includes a plurality of magnetic teeth and a wire connecting material for wire connection. The rotary electric machine further includes a plurality of jumper sections, which are portions of one conductive wire continuously wound around the magnetic teeth and continuously connect coils formed of the conductive wire wound around the magnetic teeth. The jumper section includes first jumper sections which each are not connected by the wire connecting material with another jumper section, and second jumper sections which each are connected by the wire connecting material with another jumper section. Each first jumper section and each second jumper section are configured differently in shape and position from each other.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a rotating electric machine stator that includes connecting members for connecting jumper wires to each other between neighboring magnetic pole coils of the rotating electric machine stator, and its manufacturing method. In a conventional connecting member, its portions to be connected to the jumper wires are figure-U shaped and have openings on the opposite side to a core's end-face where the jumper wires are disposed, so that, in order to insert the jumper wires into the openings, complex drive controls have been required for the connecting portions being figure-U shaped. In order to simplify the drive controls, such connecting portions being made in curved shapes have openings each facing the end-face of a core. It is possible to generally apply the present invention to rotating electric machine stators that obey coil connection specifications.

Abstract: A rowing boat footrest assembly is provided with a base, a foot-rudder control member, a footrest member, a first pivot structure and a second pivot structure. The foot-rudder control member includes a rudder control attachment. The footrest member includes a shoe attachment. The first pivot structure pivotally supports the foot-rudder control member on the base. The first pivot structure defines a first pivot axis of pivotal movement between the foot-rudder control member and the base. The second pivot structure pivotally supports the footrest member on the foot-rudder control member to change a shoe inclination of the footrest member with respect to the foot-rudder control member. The second pivot structure defines a second pivot axis of pivotal movement between the footrest member and the foot-rudder control member. The second pivot axis is not parallel to the first pivot axis.

Abstract: A rowing boat footrest assembly is provided with a stationary boat mounting, a shoe support and a lateral adjustment mechanism. The stationary boat mounting structure is arranged to be coupled to a rowing boat, the stationary boat mounting structure. The first shoe support unit stationary boat mounting structure is arranged to be coupled to a rowing boat. The shoe support includes an attachment member adjustably coupled to the stationary boat mounting structure, and a footrest member attached to the attachment member. The lateral adjustment mechanism is disposed between the stationary boat mounting structure and the shoe support to slidably mount the shoe support on the stationary boat mounting structure. The lateral adjustment mechanism is arranged to selectively secure the shoe support in at least two different lateral foot positions with respect to the stationary boat mounting structure.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for automatically generating information including a purchase order for a depleted item after sensing that the amount of the item in stock is less than a pre-specified amount. The purchase order is created using a predetermined form and attached to an e-mail. The e-mail carries the purchase order to an approver if needed or, alternatively directly to a supplier. The function is carried out either by the machine that is using the item or by a separate computer in communication with the machine.
