  • Patent number: 9235376
    Abstract: There is provided an electronic device that can execute a function using characters inputted during a telephone call, and a control method and a control program thereof. An application control unit inputs a character as an input character using an input control unit in a state where a call with a predetermined communication counterpart is continuing using a communication unit. When a predetermined function is selected after the input character is inputted with the input control unit, the application control unit executes a predetermined function in a state where the input character is inputted.

  • Patent number: 5259350
    Abstract: The fuel injection device includes a plunger, operatively connected, to a cam driven by an engine, having control groups for use in communicating with an outer circumferential surface and an end surface of a fuel injection nozzle. The fuel injection device further includes a timing sleeve fitted outwardly of the plunger, for opening or closing the control groups and an actuator for driving a timing rod connected to the timing sleeve in such a way as to move the timing sleeve up and down against the plunger. Finally, the fuel injection device includes a control device for outputting a signal for performing moving-up or moving-down of the timing sleeve to the actuator, and inputting a signal from a source of operation information.

  • Patent number: 5222792
    Abstract: An opening/closing device of a door for a refrigerator or the like will open/close the door member at a desired side, namely, at the right side or at the left side, without requiring a movable operating handle. The device is simple in construction, has a high adiabatic efficiency, and can be easily incorporated in the door member. Therefore, no special mechanism is necessary in the door member and no structural change is required inside the door member.
