  • Patent number: 9286708
    Abstract: An information device includes an image receiving unit receiving an information terminal image having a specific region composed of pixels having a same feature value from an information terminal, the feature value being luminance or chromaticity; a specific region detecting unit detecting the specific region within the information terminal image, based on feature values of pixels composing the information terminal image received by the image receiving unit; an information device image creating unit creating an information device image related to a function provided to the information device; a composite image creating unit creating a composite image where the information device image created by the information device image creating unit is embedded in the specific region detected by the specific region detecting unit within the information terminal image; and a display control unit displaying the composite image created by the composite image creating unit on a display apparatus.

  • Patent number: 8140263
    Abstract: A position measuring unit measures measurement data including at least a movement velocity, an accuracy reduction index, and an azimuth on the basis of a signal received from a satellite. A determining unit for a distance determines validity of measurement data and determines whether to derive a distance conversion coefficient using the measurement data determined valid. When the deriving is determined, a distance conversion coefficient calculator derives a distance conversion coefficient. A determining unit for an angular velocity determines an effective range for an integration value of an output value from an angular velocity sensor over a predetermined period on the basis of a movement velocity included in measurement data, and determines whether to derive an angular velocity conversion coefficient on the basis of the effective range and the integration value of the output values over the predetermined period.

  • Patent number: 5639415
    Abstract: A method of forming a hollow article, wherein all the operations such as shifting and opening/closing of a die are performed by electric actuators such as electric motors which operate in accordance with a program operation, thus improving the quality of the hollow article as the product. A parison extruded from an extruder is introduced into and held in a die which has been opened by the operation of a die compacting motor. A crosshead associated with the extruder is lifted to draw the parison, and a parison cutting motor operates to cut the drawn parison. Thus, fully automatic production is realized to ensure high yield of the product.

  • Patent number: 5338173
    Abstract: A parison controller of blow molding apparatus for varying the thickness of a parison extruded from an ejection orifice by displacing in an up and down direction a core provided at the ejection orifice of the die of a cross head. The parison controller of blow molding apparatus has a motor through which the core is displaced. It further includes: a rod connected to the core provided at the cross head; a female threaded portion formed on the upper portion of the rod; a rotating rod having a male threaded portion threaded into said female threaded portion; a reduction gear connected to said rotating rod through a thrust bearing; and the motor connected to the reduction gear. Since the core forming the ejection orifice for ejecting the parison is displaced through a motor, a reduction in the size thereof and saving of resources may be achieved and a high quality parison may be obtained as compared with a conventional parison controller which uses a hydraulic system.
