  • Patent number: 10949423
    Abstract: Control facilities and incidental facilities in fields are flexibly managed. Since identification information enabling to identify uniquely information regarding control facilities of which design timing and architectures are mutually different or facilities incidental to the control facilities is encoded, pieces of identification information are coupled and uniqueness is guaranteed. Further, a parent-child relation between identifiers is constructed and the identifiers are structured as a tree structure based on the structure of the control facilities. A control facility operation management device manages combination of the structured identifiers and information of management target or combination of the structured identification information and identification information of a database.

  • Publication number: 20210069583
    Abstract: [Object] To provide a haptic presentation apparatus capable of quickly deforming a surface. [Solving Means] A haptic presentation apparatus includes a base material, an elastic layer, and a fluid transport apparatus. The base material forms a first space and includes a first through hole. The elastic layer covers a surface of the base material including the first through hole. The fluid transport apparatus injects fluid between the elastic layer and the base material via the first through hole. The elastic layer is expanded by injecting the fluid from the fluid transport apparatus such that an internal pressure of a second space between the elastic layer and the base material is higher than an internal pressure of the first space, and the fluid injected into the second space is vented to outside of the second space via a second through hole by stopping driving of the fluid transport apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20210048062
    Abstract: A pair of sliding components having sliding faces (S) that slide with respect to each other includes: fluid introduction portions (22) having opening portions (22a) at a predetermined circumferential interval (Y) on a peripheral surface on a high pressure fluid side of the sliding face (S), the fluid introduction portions extending in a radial direction; and Rayleigh step mechanisms including extremely shallow grooves (11) that communicate with the fluid introduction portions (22) and extend in a circumferential direction, wherein circumferential width (X) of the opening portions (22a) is larger than radial width (Z) of the fluid introduction portions (22). In the sliding components, a temperature can be lowered by reducing a friction loss of the sliding faces and improving a cooling performance even when the sliding components are used at high speed.

  • Publication number: 20210029160
    Abstract: A handling apparatus (14a) handles a server attack taking place on a network (1Na) or handles a server attack as requested by a security system provided on another network. In accordance with a determination that it is not possible to handle the server attack by the handling apparatus (14a), the control determination apparatus (12a) makes a request to another security system (1Sb) capable of handling the server attack to handle the server attack. A centralized control apparatus (11) determines whether the server attack taking place on the network (1Na) can be handled on another network.

  • Publication number: 20210016659
    Abstract: A vehicle includes a front-wheel motor, a rear-wheel motor, a temperature detector, and a distribution ratio controller. The front-wheel motor drives a front wheel. The rear-wheel motor drives a rear wheel. The temperature detector detects a temperature of the front-wheel motor and a temperature of the rear-wheel motor. If one of the temperature of the front-wheel motor and the temperature of the rear-wheel motor exceeds a second temperature, the distribution ratio controller decreases a torque of one of the front-wheel motor and the rear-wheel motor the temperature of which is higher than the other and increase a torque of the other. The second temperature is a value set lower than a first temperature that is a threshold used for determination as to whether output of the front-wheel motor or output of the rear-wheel motor is to be restricted.

  • Publication number: 20210005965
    Abstract: An active phased array antenna (APAA) device includes antenna elements, active circuits, switches, and a control circuit. The antenna elements transmit and receive radio waves. The active circuits are connected to the antenna elements and start an operation upon supply of power distributed from a power supply circuit and transmit and receive signals via the antenna elements to which the active circuits are connected. The switches are connected to the active circuits, and start, upon being closed, supply of power to the active circuits to which the switches are connected, and stop, upon being opened, the supply of power to the active circuits to which the switches are connected. The control circuit transmits to the switches switching signals to turn the switches on and off to control starting and stopping of the supply of power to the active circuits. The control circuit sets timing differences in execution timings of executing the start of the stop of supply of power to the active circuits.

  • Patent number: 10859021
    Abstract: An air fuel ratio control apparatus controls an air fuel ratio of an internal combustion engine. The apparatus includes an upstream sensor measuring the air fuel ratio of exhaust gas in an exhaust passage at an upstream side of a purification catalyst; a downstream sensor measuring the air fuel ratio of the exhaust gas in the exhaust passage at a downstream side of the purification catalyst; and a control unit that adjusts an amount of fuel supplied to the internal combustion engine, thereby controlling the air fuel ratio measured at the upstream sensor to be a target air fuel ratio. The control unit performs a calibration control where a calibration value corresponding to the air fuel ratio deviation is added to or subtracted from the target air fuel ratio such that the air fuel ratio deviation approaches zero.

  • Publication number: 20200380321
    Abstract: The invention provides a printing apparatus, a printing control method, and a processing apparatus, which suppress the occurrence of rework after a start of a printing operation and suppress an output of a printing result not intended by a user due to a mismatch between a state of expansion or contraction and print settings. To this end, printing is performed in print processing by determining whether or not an operable state is established which is a state of expanding a housing to a second position.
