  • Patent number: 11970390
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for producing a microchannel device, which can form a channel that has high hydrophobicity, high solvent resistance as well, and also resistance to heat and damage, on demand with high accuracy, and produces the microchannel device at a low cost, while having high productivity. The method for producing a microchannel device includes: forming a channel pattern from a hydrophobic resin on a porous substrate by an electrophotographic method; melting the channel pattern by heat to allow the channel pattern to permeate into the porous substrate, thereby forming a channel in the inside of the porous substrate.

  • Patent number: 10922481
    Abstract: During presentation of an electronic form on a user interface device of a computer, a most likely input value for a first form field is estimated as the most often historically input value the in the first field, and the user's attention is re-directed to fill the fields in an order different from a natural reading order, according to the best available historical input patterns. This proposed auto-fill value is indicated on the electronic form associated with the first form field. If the user accepts, modifies or replaces the proposed auto-fill value, a most likely value for a second (next) field is estimated. The process is repeated for additional form fields until the form is submitted, saved, or otherwise completed, thereby using strong relationships between two or more input values for different fields as statistically determined from historical completions of the electronic form to predict and assist in future completions.

  • Publication number: 20200257486
    Abstract: In an approach to extending an application on an external device, one or more computer processors detect one or more external devices. The one or more computer processors retrieve device information from a device table for the detected one or more external devices. The one or more computer processors determine one or more capabilities of the one or more external devices based on the device information. The one or more computer processors assign one or more roles to the one or more external devices based the determined device capabilities. The one or more computer processors extend one or more graphical elements to the one or more external devices based on the assigned role.

  • Patent number: 9600161
    Abstract: A method displays a copy of a specified display area on a computer display. A first signal is received from a user. The first signal specifies a display area on a display as a specified display area. The specified display area presents a dynamic activity being performed on a computer. A second signal is received from the user to identify a particular object in the specified display area. A copy of the specified display area, which includes only the particular object, is generated. The copy of the specified display area has a same shape as the specified display area, presents the dynamic activity being performed on the computer, and is displayed on the display.

  • Patent number: 8120604
    Abstract: The present invention provides a snap function that can move an object smoothly, without deteriorating the user operability. According to the present invention, there is provided an object editing system, including: an arrangement system for arranging an object and a snap target in a given display area; a moving system for moving the object in the display area; a snap system for causing the object to snap the snap target on a basis of a distance between the object and the snap target; and a restriction system for inhibiting the object from snapping the snap target on a basis of a direction in which the object is moving. According to the object editing system of the invention, the snap system causes the object to snap the snap target once the distance between the object and the snap target has become smaller than a predetermined threshold value.

  • Patent number: 5845614
    Abstract: A valve operating system includes a connection switch-over device provided in a plurality of cam followers. The connection switch-over device has a piston moved in response to a change in hydraulic pressure in a hydraulic pressure chamber. A roller shaft is disposed on at least one of the cam followers and has a roller carried thereon to come into rolling contact with a valve operating cam. In this valve operating system, the hydraulic pressure chamber and a communication passage, which permits an oil supply passage to communicate with the hydraulic pressure chamber, are defined in a particular one of all the cam followers, which moves a smallest amount when the connection switch-over device is in its disconnecting state. The roller shaft, having the roller rotatably carried thereon, is mounted on the cam follower other than the particular one cam follower.
