  • Patent number: 7031872
    Abstract: An equilibrium state analyzing apparatus, equilibrium state analysis method, program thereof and recording medium are provided that place few constraints on the degree of freedom in the area of motion or posture of the examinee. An equilibrium state analyzing apparatus includes acceleration information detector, attached to the trunk of the human body, of detecting accelerations generated in at least one direction within the horizontal plane, motion information storing device of storing the detected accelerations, and equilibrium state analyzer of analyzing the equilibrium state of the human body using the stored acceleration information.

  • Publication number: 20050203707
    Abstract: The data measuring unit 11 measures a subject's blood and urine, and acquires numerical data (S501). The communication control unit 12 transmits the acquired numerical data to the data management apparatus 20 (S502). The overall control unit 14 receives the numerical data from the data measuring apparatus 10 (S503), and analyzes the content of the received numerical data (S504). The overall control unit 14 selects calibration curve data based on the above mentioned analysis result (S505), and calculates health care data (S506). Furthermore, the overall control unit 14 directs the communication control unit 13 to transmit the calculated health care data to the data measuring apparatus 10 (S507). The data measuring apparatus 10 receives the health care data from the data management apparatus 20 (S508).

  • Publication number: 20050027208
    Abstract: A menstrual cycle monitoring apparatus 100 that determines a menstrual cycle of a user is composed of: a clock unit 103 that measures a usage quantity (i.e., a cleansing time period taken from when a bidet switch 111 is pressed to when a stop switch 113 is pressed) of the bidet apparatus 116 that cleanses the vaginal area; a memory unit 104 that accumulates a history of the measured usage quantity for each date; and a menstrual cycle determining unit 105 that determines the menstrual cycle of the user on the basis of the history of the usage quantity accumulated in the memory unit 104.

  • Patent number: 6740463
    Abstract: A method of producing a toner having a process of mixing colored particles and outer-additives by using a mixer with an agitating blade whose shaft portion is sealed with a gas having a flow rate of from 0.4 m3/hr to 3 m3/hr and which rotates at such a high speed as a peripheral speed at a tip of said agitating blade in a range of from 20 m/sec to 50 m/sec. When the colored particles and outer-additives are mixed with each other, there is no generation of aggregates thereby and the toner can be obtained at a high yield. Therefore the toner which hardly generates a white streak and fog, even after a long period of continuous operation of development of electrophotographs is performed, can be obtained.
