  • Patent number: 8596426
    Abstract: In an electric linear motion actuator, planetary rollers 7 rotatably supported on their radially inner surfaces by respective support pins 6b are radially inwardly biased by radially compressible ring springs 18 enveloping the support pins 6b, thereby biasing and pressing the respective planetary rollers 7 against the radially outer surface of a rotary shaft 4. Thus, it is possible to stably transmit torque of the rotary shaft 4 to the respective planetary rollers 7 without applying a preload to the planetary rollers 7 with a negative gap between the radially outer surface of the rotary shaft 4 and the radially inner surface of the outer ring member 5.

  • Patent number: 8565583
    Abstract: To provide a device that easily judges that content that has been edited and moved back differs from original content. A content transmission device 60 divides edited content composed of partial original content and partial edited content to generate transfer data pieces, generates a nonce value of each piece, encrypts the piece based on the nonce value, and transmits the encrypted transfer data pieces and nonce values. When switch occurs between the partial contents, the device 60 generates nonce value such that discontinuity exists between the generated nonce value and immediately previously generated nonce value. A content reception device 70 receives the encrypted transfer data pieces and nonce values, decrypts the pieces based on the nonce values, writes the transfer data pieces into recording medium. When discontinuity exists between currently received nonce value and immediately previously received nonce value, the device 70 detects reception of partial edited content.

  • Patent number: 8553879
    Abstract: Provided is a content transmission device 310 that can reduce failure of content key confirmation processing during special playback such as fast-forwarding and fast-rewinding. A key management unit 312 generates or updates a key parameter, and stores therein the generated or updated key parameter. The key management unit 312 receives a key parameter from the content reception device 340, and calculates a difference between the key parameter stored therein and the received key parameter. By using the calculated difference, a transmission control unit 313 judges whether or not to change a transmission speed at which an encrypted content portion is to be transmitted, and depending on a result of the judgment, selects one of transmission speeds and transmits the encrypted content portion in accordance with the selected transmission speed.
