  • Publication number: 20240094073
    Abstract: A strain gauge transducer comprises: a casing comprising a deforming body to be deformed by an external force; a strain gauge disposed on the deforming body; a conductive wire connected to the strain gauge and drawn to outside of the casing through a through hole provided on the casing; a covering member covering the conductive wire with a gap between the covering member and the conductive wire, one end of the covering member being in close contact with the casing; a circuit board connected with the conductive wire; and a cable relay tube housing the circuit board, in close contact with the other end of the covering member. A continuous ventilation passage through the gap from an interior of the casing to an interior of the cable relay tube is formed and contacts the outside air at a surface of the cable relay tube.

  • Publication number: 20230398892
    Abstract: A device includes one or more processors configured to: specify a necessary charge amount of the power storage device; and control the conversion device such that the power storage device is charged at a high power level up to a predetermined charge amount reachable to the specified necessary charge amount, and such that the power storage device is charged at a low power level after the predetermined charge amount has been reached, the low power level being a level of charging power at which an appropriate temperature range is maintained by cooling control at a low drive level of the cooling device, the high power level being a level of charging power at which the appropriate temperature range is maintained by cooling control at a high drive level at which cooling performance is higher than cooling performance of the low drive level.

  • Patent number: 11842064
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a first memory configured to retain a request group, based on requests received by a reception interface, a second memory configured to retain a request group, based on requests received by the reception interface, and a first transmission interface configured to transmit the request group retained in the first memory to the first storage and a second transmission interface configured to transmit the request group retained in the second memory to the second storage. The request group transmitted by the first transmission interface and the request group transmitted by the second transmission interface are different request groups.

  • Patent number: 10168958
    Abstract: An object is to make it possible to add a vendor-unique command at the time at which addition of a vendor-unique command becomes necessary later even in the case where the device side does not have a dedicate pin for updating in communication control based on a SATA standard. An information processing system that performs data communication between a host and a device in conformity with the SATA standard, and the host transmits a setup command to which information on an undefined command is written to the device, and the device: has a command table for commands in conformity with the SATA standard, in which a command code to identify each command and information on a transfer protocol of each command are described; and makes the undefined command available between the host and the device by writing information on the undefined command to the command table in accordance with the received setup command.
