Publication number: 20220365068Abstract: An alcohol detector includes a detecting section, a display section, a communication section, and a controller. The detecting section performs alcohol concentration detection in exhaled breath blown by a subject. The communication section communicates with a prescribed external device performing image capture of the subject who blows the exhaled breath. The controller causes the detecting section to perform the alcohol concentration detection and transmits a detection result of the alcohol concentration detection to the prescribed external device via the communication section. The controller causes the display section to display an image including identification information indicating the alcohol detector during image capture of the subject in a time from a start of the alcohol concentration detection to transmission of the detection result.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2022Publication date: November 17, 2022Inventors: Isao YASUDA, Hiroshi KUZE

Patent number: 10755498Abstract: [Problem] A drive recorder is provided that enables acquisition of a desired image captured when an impact with a strength meeting a predetermined condition has been measured. [Means of Solution] In the drive recorder 1, the travel recording module 51 records captured moving-imagery data 60 captured by a camera 18 installed on a vehicle. The acceleration sensor 19 measures the acceleration of the vehicle. When it is determined that the acceleration measured by the acceleration sensor 19 is within an abnormality range, the travel recording module 51 notifies the server 4 at a predetermined time point of the time point of dangerous driving at which the acceleration within the abnormality range was measured.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2016Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Assignee: PAI-R Co., Ltd.Inventor: Isao Yasuda

Patent number: 8939878Abstract: Plural conveying paths including guide plates are arranged on both sides of a sheet in its thickness direction, being linked from an upstream side to a downstream side in a conveying direction of the sheet. A stopper is arranged in at least one of the conveying paths to make contact with a leading edge of the sheet conveyed through the conveying paths thereby stopping the sheet and forming a bending portion at the sheet. A pair of folding rollers is arranged between the conveying paths to nip the bending portion of the sheet to form a folding line at the sheet. An adjusting member is provided on the guide plates to adjust a space between the guide plates.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2008Date of Patent: January 27, 2015Assignee: Ricoh Company, LimitedInventors: Kenichi Takekawa, Yasuki Matsuura, Masanobu Kimata, Isao Yasuda

Patent number: 5469189Abstract: A display apparatus automatically rounds corners of a rectangular area frame for display thereof, the rectangular area frame including that of a window or that of a graph and the like displayed within the window. The rounding is effected by automatically calculating and displaying circular arcs (ellipstic arcs) of corners based on the inputted corner coordinates of the rectangular area frame, or by not displaying one or several dots of each corner. In the case where multi-windows are displayed in an overlap manner or a plurality of rectangular area frames are displayed within a window, the corners are not displayed stiffly and emphasized unnecessarily, thus providing a visually soft and natural display image, improving the quality of displayed images, and providing an improved handy method for use by an operator.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 1989Date of Patent: November 21, 1995Assignee: Hitachi, Ltd.Inventors: Yasuhiro Noguchi, Hiroshi Kuwahara, Isao Yasuda, Kazuo Takei
