Abstract: A swing mechanism for a construction machine is provided with a center frame 3 having a pinion insertion hole 3c, an inner race having an internal gear and mounted on a side of an undercarriage, an outer race 1b rotatably arranged surrounding the inner race and provided with the center frame secured thereon by bolts 8a, a pinion maintained in meshing engagement with the internal gear of the inner race, and a pinion drive device. A pin fit-in hole 3d arranged in the center frame 3 such that a knock pin 6 fixed on the outer race 1b is fitted in the pin fit-in hole to position the center frame 3. To arrange the pin fit-in hole 3d in the center frame 3, a pin fit-in hole portion 20 through which the pin fit-in hole 3d is formed is locally arranged such that the pin fit-in hole portion 20 extends toward the pinion insertion hole 3c to have a center of the pin fit-in hole 3d located on a center connection line S.

Abstract: The present invention provides an information processing unit with improved operability. A reading section (10) reads information recorded in an optical disk, and outputs a read signal. A DSP (20) detects the read signal and processes to a reproducible form. A quick return button selects at least one of the processing details for starting or stopping the information processing and for changing a reproducing position of the information. When a reproducing state changing section (120) recognizes a change instruction for changing a processing state for the information, a reproduction control section (52) changes the processing state by the DSP 20 based on the processing details selected with the quick return button.

Abstract: A swivel frame structure for a hydraulic excavator, said swing frame structure being to be arranged in a swing upperstructure 21, has a center frame 1 composed of side plates 6,7 and a reinforcement plate 8 joined to each other. The swing frame structure is provided with mating portions for bringing the side plates 6,7 and the reinforcement plate 8 into engagement with each other. These mating portions comprise plug-in structure portions, which in turn comprise holes 6a,7a formed through the respective side plates 6,7 and lugs 8a,8b arranged on opposite side edge portions of the reinforcement plate 8 and to be inserted into the holes 6a,7a of the corresponding side plates 6,7. The center frame can be fabricated without needing any jigs for fixedly holding the side plates and a bottom plate together.

Abstract: After the LEDs 2 (red LEDs (R), green LEDs (G) and blue LEDs (B), or white LEDs (W)) are mounted on the frame 3, without dicing the frame 3 for dividing the LEDs 2 into pieces, the tie bar is punched off to form an electric circuit. Thus, the RGB three primary color LED light source 1A or the white LED light source 1B that emits light in the state of the frame 3 can be manufactured.

Abstract: A light emitting device has a cup portion with a bottom surface opening, and one electrode of a light emitting element is connected to the cup portion. The other electrode of the light emitting element is connected to a lead set up from an inner space to outside the cup portion using the opening of the cup portion. Each electrode and lead of the light emitting device can be electrically connected without bonding wires. This prevents shadows or light unevenness from reflecting the shape of the bonding wire, thereby enhancing light-emission efficiency. As an alternative to setting up the lead from inside to the outside of the cup portion, the lead existing outside the cup portion and the other electrode are electrically connected via the bonding wire through the cup portion's opening. Thus, light outputted outside of the light emitting device is not intercepted by the bonding wire.

Abstract: An information playback apparatus is provided to obtain editing effects using an optical disc in the same sense as an analog record disc is manipulated. An audio editing apparatus for playing back an optical disc such as a CD is provided with a rotatable jog dial, detecting device for detecting the amount of rotation of the jog dial, and sensing device for sensing the presence or absence of a pressing force on the jog dial. When the jog dial is rotated while being depressed with a predetermined pressing force, processing for providing sound effects is performed on the playback data to be played back from the optical disc in response to the amount of rotation detected by the detecting device. It is thereby possible to provide the same feeling of operation as provided by rotating an analog record disc through hand operations to produce playback sounds.

Abstract: A light emitting device in which the bottom surface of a cup portion is configured to have an opening, and one electrode of a light emitting element is electrically connected to the cup portion, and the other electrode of the light emitting element is electrically connected to a lead which is set up through an inner space from outside the cup portion by making use of the opening of the cup portion. As a result of this configuration, each electrode and each lead of the light emitting device can be electrically connected to each other without using a bonding wire. This makes it possible to prevent occurrence of a shadow or light unevenness reflecting shape of the bonding wire, thereby allowing an enhancement in light-emission efficiency.

Abstract: A beat density detecting apparatus and an information playback apparatus are provided to detect distinctive characteristics that music or the like has and to provide the same as a novel information volume. Playback data read out from an information recording medium, such as an optical disc, and sub-code data containing the information of an elapsed track time indicating a recording position of the playback data are provided to a beat detecting unit and a beat position detecting unit, respectively. The beat detecting unit detects the number of occurrences of a change in amplitude at each predetermined frequency of the playback data, and the beat position detecting unit detects an elapsed track time from the sub-code data. Further, a beat density computing unit finds the number of occurrences with respect to the elapsed track time as the characteristics information of a beat density.

Abstract: An information playback apparatus is provided, which displays the status of playback in a way more suitable to the human sense as well as detects and then displays as new information the feature characteristic of audio information such as a music selection. The frequency of occurrence of variations in amplitude of audio information to be played back is measured at each predetermined frequency. The measured frequency of occurrence is displayed in a predetermined area of a display unit as the feature information of beat densities with respect to the playback elapsed time of the audio information to be played back. An index display unit is displayed in a substantially circular playback speed display unit. The amount of audio information to be sequentially played back corresponding to elapsed time is divided by a predetermined value to determine a remainder.
