  • Patent number: 9145970
    Abstract: There is provided a control device for an automatic transmission configured to automatically shift a transmission of a driving force of a motor in response to a driving state. The automatic transmission includes a synchromesh mechanism configured to couple gear pairs and a rotary shaft to transmit the driving force of the motor to the gear pairs and a switching apparatus configured to switch a coupling state of the gear pairs and the rotary shaft. A preload control unit is configured to operate the switching apparatus to apply a preload to the synchromesh mechanism when a shift transmission request is detected. A shift control unit is configured to operate the switching apparatus to apply a shift load greater than the preload to the synchromesh mechanism after the preload is applied to the synchromesh mechanism.

  • Publication number: 20140095256
    Abstract: By adopting a component index with which it is possible for the evaluation subject to freely move over a screen and cite components of interest of an evaluation object overall image, it is possible to efficiently acquire information of the components which receive attention through the eyes of a typical consumer without being constrained by components which the specialists have prepared as objects to be evaluated, and by organizing and grouping the information thus acquired and displaying together with positions and frequencies of components of interest, it is possible to easily comprehend investigation results.

  • Patent number: 8683660
    Abstract: A snap button wherein when a male snap is removed from a female snap, a rotation between the snaps is limited, but is permitted normally. A male-side grooved surface is provided on a male snap radially outward from a projection of the snap with a plurality of grooves formed so that peaks and troughs of the grooves are arranged continuously in the circumferential direction. A female-side grooved surface similar to the male-side grooved surface is provided on a female snap radially outward from a projection-receiving space of the snap. The female-side grooved surface is inclined relative to the male-side grooved surface. When the male snap is removed from the female snap, each axis of the male snap and the female snap, which are yet in a coupled state, inclines relative to each other, causing the male-side grooved surface and the female-side grooved surface to partially engage with each other.

  • Patent number: 8477023
    Abstract: An information presentation apparatus includes an action determination section to execute a determination as to whether a driver becomes aware of an attention-seeking display sign or an alarm display sign, and an information presentation control circuit to cause a display device to perform a display changeover to change a display mode of an attention-seeking display sign or alarm display sign into an attenuation display mode based on an affirmative result from the determination by the action determination section. Herein, the action determination section executes the above determination based on reference information such as driver action confirmation information or vehicle information, which is a signal generated by a switch manipulation or a driving operation of the driver when noticing the attention-seeking display sign or alarm display sign displayed in the display device.

  • Patent number: 8291615
    Abstract: An inner sole structure for a sports shoe includes an upper sheet, a lower sheet below the upper sheet, and a wavy corrugated sheet interposed between the upper and lower sheets. The wavy corrugated sheet has at least two downwardly convex protrusions that form voids between the wavy corrugated sheet and the lower sheet, and that are in sliding contact with an upper surface of the lower sheet. The downwardly convex protrusions of the wavy corrugated sheet slide longitudinally along the lower sheet member when they are subjected to compressive deformation.
