  • Publication number: 20240157441
    Abstract: A dissimilar metal joint structure includes a first and second joining materials and a three-dimensional structural body. The structural body is joined to the top of the first joining material. Spaces in the structural body are filled with the second joining material, so that the second joining material is geometrically integrated with the structural body. The structural body is joined to the first joining material at an interface. The second joining material is charged into the spaces in the structural body and is integrated with the structural body. The first and second joining materials are joined together via the structural body. Because the second joining material is charged into the spaces in the structural body, the second joining material and the structural body are strongly joined and integrated together by the anchor effect. Inducing metallurgical reaction at the interface between the first and second joining materials can increase bonding strength.

  • Patent number: 11976933
    Abstract: A link combination extraction unit (24) acquires all the combination of link candidates from among link candidates having an angle with respect to a movement direction of a pedestrian equal to or smaller than a threshold value among link candidates for n walking route networks. The link combination extraction unit (24) acquires all the combinations of link candidates that do not intersect with each other among the acquired combinations of link candidates. The link combination extraction unit (24) acquires all the combinations of link candidates that do not connect to each other among the acquired combinations of link candidates. The link combination extraction unit (24) acquires all the combinations of link candidates that are not on the same straight line among the acquired combinations of link candidates. A candidate determination unit (26) acquires a combination of link candidates closest to position information of a pedestrian when there are a plurality of acquired link candidates.

  • Patent number: 4759003
    Abstract: An electronic analog timepiece with voltage checking function, which detects the power source condition, and which informs the user of the necessity of charging operation by changing the magnitude of the power source voltage into the distance by which the hand is carried or the amount by which the hand is moved upon operation from external side.The hand is stopped from moving for a predetermined period of time in the first time only in which the voltage checking operation is carried out.

  • Patent number: 4752862
    Abstract: Art to make the electronic devices immune against the static electricity, so that the circuits are not erroneously operated or broken down by the electric field, by the electromagnetic waves or by the flow of electric charge. In an electronic device which is not grounded, the capacity between an active side 2 and an input line 4 is selected to be smaller than the capacity between a pull side 3 and the input line 4 relying upon the layout of IC pads, relying upon the layout of circuit board patterns, or relying upon the capacitors, and a metal housing is not connected to the active side 2. The electronic device exhibits perfect immunity against the flow of electric charge into the circuit network caused by the discharge of static electricity, against the noise caused by the electromagnetic waves having high energy, and against the electric field where the electric discharge is not taking place, i.e., the electronic device exhibits immunity against all of the phenomena of static electricity.

  • Patent number: 4750099
    Abstract: A circuit for charging capacitors having a power source, a plurality of capacitors for accumulating an electric charge from the power source, switching elements with electrically controllable inputs for connecting or disconnecting at least one of the capacitors to or from the power source, and resistors for setting the switching elements to turn off. These resistors are connected to the control inputs of the switching elements and to one of two terminals of the power source directly so that the resistors consume the electric charge only when the power source supplies the electric charge.

  • Patent number: 4709200
    Abstract: A power source circuit has an electric energy generator, two condensers, a switching element and a voltage detecting circuit. The first condenser accumulates electric energy which is generated by the electric energy generator, such as a solar cell, and the second condenser supplies electric energy to a load. The switching element controls the electric energy transfer from the first condenser to the second condenser in response to the output of the voltage detecting circuit which detects the terminal voltage of the second condenser. The first condenser has a relatively high withstand voltage and relatively small capacity and volume so as to obtain a quick start-up operation of the circuit and a prolonged operation.
