  • Patent number: 11333521
    Abstract: A head-up display (HUD) including a direction-information generator, a shift device, and a display system. The direction-information generator generates direction information to be superimposed on a road surface ahead of a vehicle on which the HUD is mounted. The direction information represents a direction of travel to be followed by the vehicle. The shift device shifts at least some of the direction-change information into the display area when the direction information includes direction-change information to represent a change in the direction of travel and the direction-change information falls outside a display area. The display system displays the direction information within the display area as a virtual image.

  • Patent number: 11249423
    Abstract: Provided is an image forming apparatus including an image carrier, a transfer unit, a driver, a hardware processor, an adjustment mechanism, and a speed detector. The hardware processor sets a command value. The hardware processor performs a constant-torque control based on a constant-speed drive torque detected in a constant-speed control. In the constant-torque control, the hardware processor performs a feedback control to set a reference value to an average speed of the driver during passage of a first sheet and calculate a difference from an average speed during passage of a subsequent sheet so as to derive the command value. The hardware processor determines whether a load torque increase, its factor, and/or its influence exceeds a threshold, and forcibly sets the reference value to a speed detected while a pressure between the transfer unit and the image carrier is reduced by the adjustment mechanism from the pressure during image transfer.

  • Publication number: 20210370427
    Abstract: A brazing material is interposed between an aluminum-based material and an iron-based material plated with Ni. The brazing material has a structure in which an Al—Si—Ni based alloy layer and an Al layer are bonded via a flux layer. A structure for brazing is formed such that the Al—Si—Ni based alloy layer is located on the aluminum-based material side and the Al layer is located on the iron-based material side. The structure is heated in a furnace and is thereafter cooled, thereby obtaining a brazed joint body in which the Ni plating that is a barrier layer remains and an Al—Ni layer is formed.
