  • Patent number: 11618189
    Abstract: In an injection molding machine, operating state identification codes, a change between which coincides with a change pattern stored in a change pattern storage unit, are replaced with a change pattern-associated identification code associated with the change pattern. This allows even a less-experienced person to easily grasp work contents indicated by an operating state.

  • Publication number: 20220024132
    Abstract: A composition of an agent for treating a precursor of a three-dimensional object of the present invention for removing a support material including a (meth)acrylic acid-based copolymer having a hydrophilic monomer and a hydrophobic monomer as a monomer unit from the precursor of a three-dimensional object including a three-dimensional object and the support material, wherein the composition contains a compound represented by Formula (I) below (component A); and water (component B), and has a pH of 12 or more. In Formula (I) R1, R2, R3 and R4 are defined in the specification. With the composition of an agent for treating a precursor of a three-dimensional object of the present invention, a support material including a (meth)acrylic acid-based copolymer can be removed more quickly than before.

  • Patent number: 9125115
    Abstract: A method for switching access points of a wireless network via sharing communications is disclosed. A host computer and a client computer are connected to a first wireless network by a first communication system. The host computer determines a communication quality to the first wireless network. If the communication quality falls below a predetermined value, the host computer connects to a second wireless network to shift to a sharing communication mode to connect the client computer to the second wireless network. The host computer that has shifted to the sharing communication mode then connects to the client computer by a second communication system to connect the client to the second wireless network.

  • Patent number: 7661602
    Abstract: A method of and a system for generating a printing ID code representing product ID information to be printed on products based on an identification information of a specific one of the products which is stored in a memory accompanying the specific product. The printing ID generation is performed by converting the identification information read in by an information reading section into an alphanumeric ID code by a notation system of base N so as to have a number of digits less than an encode ID information, converting a part of a numeric code representing a production date of the product into an alphanumeric date code by the notation system of base N and combining the alphanumeric ID code and the alphanumeric date code as a printing identification code.
