  • Patent number: 8308038
    Abstract: A part clamp is temporarily held in a short cylindrical portion provided on a contact arm of a nailing machine and is nailed to a building body or the like by the nailing machine. The part clamp is provided with a base portion having a through hole at its center for inserting a nail therethrough, and an engaging portions for engaging with the short cylindrical portion. When the part clamp is pushed in the axial direction of an injection port of the nailing machine, the part clamp is temporarily held in the short cylindrical portion. The load to push the part clamp to engage with the short cylindrical portion is lower than the load to push the contact arm to slide along the injection port.

  • Patent number: 7684334
    Abstract: In a method of processing a call in response to a connection request that includes reported bandwidths in both upstream and downstream directions, a communication node on the calling side (1) manages available bandwidths in upstream and downstream directions on a per-path basis; (2) searches for a path having upstream/downstream available bandwidths, which are greater than the upstream/downstream reported bandwidths; (3) if such a path can be found, accepts the call connection request as a call communicated in both directions on this path; (4) if such a path cannot be found, searches independently for a path having an available bandwidth greater than the upstream reported bandwidth and a path having an available bandwidth greater than the downstream reported bandwidth; and (5) if these two paths can be found, accepts the call connection request as a call communicated on the separate paths on a per-upstream- and downstream-direction basis.

  • Publication number: 20020002805
    Abstract: A bonding member 1 comprising a metallic plate 2 formed as a small piece onto which a hot melt adhesive layer 3 is formed at least one side of said metallic plate 2, and a gypsum board mounting method for mounting a gypsum board 5 using the bonding member 1, comprising: fixing said bonding member 5 temporarily; pushing said gypsum board 5, heating the metallic plate 2 with electromagnetic induction to melt said hot melt adhesive layer 3; and thereby allowing the gypsum board 5 to be bonded easily without noise. The bonded gypsum board 5 can be recycled because it can be peeled off easily with melting the adhesive layer 3 without damage of the board.

  • Patent number: 5687040
    Abstract: In a cassette loading device of a compact, lightweight, thin type for use in a video tape player or the like, an opening lever is pivotally mounted on a stand, and is engaged in a cam groove with a top plate. With this arrangement, the opening lever is accommodated within a longitudinal dimension of a cassette, and therefore the loading device in the direction of the longitudinal dimension of the cassette can be greatly reduced. The cassette is moved through the pivotal movement of the top plate and arms, and with this arrangement operating switches and so on can be easily mounted on a plane of projection of the top plate. Therefore, the positional stability of the cassette loading device can be achieved, and the number of component parts can be reduced, thereby achieving a compact, lightweight construction of the cassette loading device.
