Abstract: A position specifying device communicable with a transmitter supporting Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) is provided. The position specifying device includes: a signal receiving unit configured, by using multiple antennas each having different directivity, to receive BLE radio signals transmitted from the transmitter and to measure respective receiving strengths of the BLE radio signals; and a specifying unit configured to specify a position of the transmitter by comparing the respective receiving strengths measured via each of the multiple antennas.

Abstract: A press molding die capable of preventing a workpiece from moving is provided. The press molding die includes a punch for pressing a workpiece; a molding die having a molding surface on which the workpiece is placed and a concave portion which is formed on the molding surface and which has a shape corresponding to the punch; a pad for pressing a part of the workpiece placed on the molding surface and which is on the periphery of the concave portion; and a micro-rough layer which is formed by performing a particulate coating process on at least one of a portion of the pad, for pressing the workpiece, and a portion of the molding surface, corresponding to the portion of the pad. Preferably, the height of roughness of the micro-rough layer is 0.01 to 0.06 mm, and the particulate coating process is performed using a silicofluoric chrome plating solution.

Abstract: A control system which is capable of selectively using any of a plurality of communication devices. When an operator selects a desired communication device from a plurality of communication devices, state information concerning each of the communication devices is rewritten so as to render only the selected communication device usable. The control system uses properties of the OS to temporarily stop all the communication devices, and thereafter controls only the selected communication device usable in accordance with the changed state information.

Abstract: The invention provides a method of manufacturing a hydraulic hardening material having the steps of milling vitreous blast furnace slag and classifying the milled slag to provide slag powder having a blaine specific surface area of 6,000 to 12,000 cm.sup.2 /g. The hydraulic hardening material manufactured by the method is used as a Portland blast furance cement raw material.

Abstract: The present invention provides a flame-spraying material composed of a powder mixture having a particle size not more than 0.5 mm and essentially comprising 85 to 98% by weight of SiO.sub.2 and 2 to 15% by weight of CaO, and also comprising 0.05 to 1.0% by weight of Li.sub.2 O in addition to the above which show a good adhesion rate and high mechanical strength of the flame-spray deposited coating as well as a tendency towards higher anti-spalling due to the reduced melt viscosity and hot linear thermal expansion rate similar to that of silica brick.
