  • Patent number: 9386935
    Abstract: An electrocardiogram analyzer has a measurement section for measuring an electrocardiographic signal; a determination unit for determining, from arrhythmia determination reference information that is information pertinent to arrhythmia, whether or not an electrocardiogram multiplex, which includes a first predetermined number of heart beats, in the thus-measured electrocardiographic signal is arrhythmia; a reference waveform determination unit that determines a reference waveform from the electrocardiogram complex including the first predetermined number of heart beats when the determination unit has determined that the electrocardiogram complex is not arrhythmia, storing the thus determined reference waveform; and an analysis unit that performs an analysis as to whether or not an electrocardiogram complex being measured is arrhythmia by use of the stored reference waveform.

  • Publication number: 20150138253
    Abstract: Provided is a display device including a driving transistor, a switching unit, and a control unit. The driving transistor includes a control terminal, a first terminal, and a second terminal, and controls supply of current to a light emitting element, which is connected to the first terminal and emits light in accordance with the current amount, in accordance with a signal voltage applied to the control terminal The switching unit can switch a conduction and non-conduction state, and, by being brought in the conduction state, forms a path that bypasses the light emitting element so that the current is not supplied to the light emitting element. The control unit performs control so that the switching unit is brought in the non-conduction state after the signal voltage is written into the control terminal, and controls a potential of the control terminal in synchronization with the control of the switching unit.

  • Patent number: 7538568
    Abstract: A conductive plunger 3 is received inside a cylindrical conductive barrel 2 so as to be capable of moving backward and forward, an urging coil spring 4 for pushing a rear end 3b of the plunger 3 is received inside the barrel 2, and a front end 3a of the plunger 3 is protruded from an opening at one end 2a of the barrel 2. In this probe 1, stable electrical contact is achieved by inserting a conductive coil spring 5 that does not urge the plunger 3 between the inner circumference of the barrel 2 and the outer circumference of the plunger 3 to realize electrical contact between the inner circumference of the barrel 2 and the outer circumference of the plunger 3 via this coil spring 5.
