  • Publication number: 20240132147
    Abstract: A vehicle power supply system includes a power source control device that executes a process of switching a connection state of a driving circuit to the main power source and an auxiliary power source including; a process of switching the connection state so as to transition to a backup state as a voltage decrease of the main power source occurs, and a process of switching the connection state so as to transition to a normal state as the voltage decrease of the main power source is resolved. After a voltage decrease of the main power source occurs, a turning-side control device of a steering control unit sets an output-limited state for a turning-side motor. The output-limited state is canceled upon the power source control device completing switching of the connection state so as to transition.

  • Publication number: 20230080948
    Abstract: This invention provides a baggage inspection device that can maintain or improve inspection throughput. The Baggage Inspection Device 100 according to an embodiment of this invention comprises Conveyor 20 that transports Baggage BA, Inspection Unit 10 that inspects Baggage BA, Curtain 31 that shields X-rays emitted from Inspection Unit 10, and Transportation Assist Mechanism 32 that assists transportation of Baggage BA by moving Curtain 31 that comes into contact with Baggage BA in a direction along Direction D1, i.e. the transport direction of Baggage BA.

  • Publication number: 20220404294
    Abstract: A means is provided for enabling easy identification of baggage in which one or more hazardous item is detected. An inspection system is equipped with a first conveyor, inspection device, cover, camera, controller and display. The first conveyor transports baggage to the inspection device. The inspection device captures transmitted-light images of the baggage using light that transmits through the baggage. The cover covers a transport path of the baggage to prevent a hand of a visitor from being inserted into an image shooting area where electromagnetic waves that are harmful to the human body are irradiated. The camera captures visible-light images of the baggage using visible light. The controller controls the first conveyor, inspection device, camera and display. Under control of the controller, the display simultaneously displays a transmitted-light image and a visible-light image of the baggage.

  • Publication number: 20220397538
    Abstract: A technique is provided to enable a baggage holder to smoothly place baggage on a conveyor belt. An inspection device inspects the baggage of a visitor using x-rays. A belt conveyor transports the baggage to an inspection device. On the surface of the belt, plural marks are printed at predetermined intervals along the transport direction. When the belt conveyor drives the belt, the marks move in the transport direction at the transport speed of the belt. When placing baggage on the belt, the visitor can easily perceive the status of the belt, such as its transport direction and speed. The inspection device may have a light emitter near the loading position where baggage should be placed on the belt, and the color of light from the light emitter may change to notify the visitor when baggage should be placed on the belt.

  • Patent number: 6568066
    Abstract: A miniature motor includes: a plurality of magnets serving as stator poles and attached to an inner surface of a motor casing having a closed-bottomed cylindrical shape; a salient-pole rotor having a core mounted on a rotor shaft and windings placed on the core; and a commutator mounted on the rotor shaft. The core includes a center portion having a hole formed therein at the center for engagement with the rotor shaft, a plurality of leg portions extending integrally and radially from the center portion in equal number with the salient poles, and a plurality of wing portions, each extending integrally and symmetrically from an end of each of the leg portions. The core includes core laminations blanked from sheet steel and assembled together and is formed through deformation of the entire wing portions such that the radius of a circumcircle of the core coincides with a designed final radius of curvature of outer circumferential surfaces of the salient poles of the rotor.
