Patent number: 10597078Abstract: A vehicle is configured to travel, when a vehicle velocity is within a velocity range from not less than a first velocity of at least zero to not more than a second velocity larger than the first velocity, in a mode in which a vehicle body is leaned by a lean mechanism according to an input into an operation input unit, and a wheel angle of a turn wheel changes following a lean of the vehicle body. A natural frequency of roll oscillation of the vehicle body is either within a range of smaller than a reference frequency or within a range of larger than the reference frequency, the reference frequency being a frequency at which oscillation of the wheel angle of the turn wheel has phase delay of 90 degrees relative to the roll oscillation of the vehicle body in its width direction.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2017Date of Patent: March 24, 2020Assignees: THE UNIVERSITY OF TOKYO, EQUOS RESEARCH CO., LTD.Inventors: Yoshihiro Suda, Jeffrey Too Chuan Tan, Hiroki Arakawa, Keizo Araki, Akira Mizuno

Publication number: 20180218143Abstract: In an electronic apparatus, a display device displays an unlock screen that includes a mark pattern of one or plural marks. A touch panel (a) detects as one unlock operation a user operation performed at one time to a part or all of the one or plural marks and (b) is capable of detecting as a registered unlock operation pattern the unlock operations performed a preset number of times. A lock managing unit (a) displays the unlock screen on the display device in a lock status that restricts user operations, (b) determines user operations detected plural times by the touch panel, (c) determines whether the determined user operations of plural times agree with the registered unlock operation pattern or not, and (d) cancels the lock status if the determined user operations of plural times agree with the registered unlock operation pattern.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 22, 2018Publication date: August 2, 2018Inventor: Hiroki Arakawa

The touch panel is provided on the display. The tilt detector detects a tilt direction and a tilt amount of the display. The display controller moves a plurality of icons displayed on the display, in a direction corresponding to the tilt direction detected by the tilt detector, by a movement amount corresponding to the tilt amount detected by the tilt detector. The operation detector detects a selection operation performed, via the touch panel, on one of the plurality of icons that have been moved by the display controller.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2017Publication date: November 16, 2017Inventor: Hiroki Arakawa

Patent number: 9769343Abstract: To provide a sleep mode control system restricting power consumption while an image forming apparatus (ifma) is in a sleep mode (slm) and allowing a user to deactivate the sleep mode without impairing his/her convenience. The sleep mode control system includes the imf entering the slm to reduce power consumption and a power generator provided below a passage floor on which the imf is mounted. The power generator has a power generation unit, when stepped, provides a private power generation and an electromotive force detection unit detecting an electromotive force generated at the power generation unit successively, generating a pulse signal using the resulting electromotive force, and outputting the resulting pulse signal successively. The ifma has a sleep control part deactivating the slm, while the ifma is being in the slm, based on a signal pattern of the pulse signal outputted from the electromotive force detection unit.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2016Date of Patent: September 19, 2017Assignee: KYOCERA Document Solutions Inc.Inventors: Nobuhiro Hara, Naoki Sawa, Hiroki Arakawa, Yuki Enokizono

Patent number: 9317148Abstract: A display input device includes a display portion and a touch panel portion. The display portion displays a screen having an object thereon. The touch panel portion is provided on the display portion and detects a plurality of touched positions touched by a user. The display portion, while displaying the screen having the object thereon, when an operation of touching two points on the touch panel portion has been performed, displays transfer destination information indicating a transfer destination candidate that can be a transfer destination of the object. The touch panel portion, when an object transfer operation including an operation of touching a display position of the transfer destination information and then releasing the touched state has been performed, accepts that the transfer destination candidate corresponding to the transfer destination information displayed at the last touched position has been determined as an actual transfer destination of the object.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2013Date of Patent: April 19, 2016Assignee: KYOCERA Document Solutions Inc.Inventors: Hiroki Arakawa, Yasuhiro Sekiguchi

Patent number: 9164611Abstract: A display input device includes a display portion and a touch panel portion. When an object to be transferred is determined by touching two points on the touch panel portion, the display portion displays transfer destination designation information indicating which object is designated as a transfer destination among objects that can be a transfer destination of the object to be transferred. When the touch panel portion has accepted a transfer destination switching operation performed while one or more of the two touched points keep being touched, the display portion switches the object designated as a transfer destination by the transfer destination designation information. After the display portion has displayed the transfer destination designation information, when the touching operation has been released, the touch panel portion accepts the object designated as a transfer destination when the touching operation has been released, as a transfer destination of the object to be transferred.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2013Date of Patent: October 20, 2015Assignee: KYOCERA Document Solutions Inc.Inventor: Hiroki Arakawa

Patent number: 9013742Abstract: A destination-to-save-data specifying system includes a computer and an image forming apparatus. In the computer, when a user interface section accepts an operator's destination-to-save-data specifying command for a folder on the computer, an accompanying information management section acquires accompanying information, including a path name, from the folder and allows a communication section to transmit the acquired accompanying information to the image forming apparatus. In the image forming apparatus, a destination-to-save-data specifying section uses the accompanying information received by the accompanying information receiving section to specify the folder identified by the accompanying information as a destination to save data output from the image forming apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2013Date of Patent: April 21, 2015Assignee: KYOCERA Document Solutions Inc.Inventors: Hiroki Arakawa, Yasuhiro Sekiguchi
