  • Patent number: 11506958
    Abstract: A first holding barrel, a first mirror bending a first optical axis of the first holding barrel at 90°, a second holding barrel, a second mirror bending a second optical axis of the second holding barrel at 90°, and a third holding barrel are disposed on an optical axis from a screen side to an image forming panel. A first connection member connects the first holding barrel including the first mirror to the second holding barrel to be rotationally movable in increments of 90°. A second connection member connects the second holding barrel and the second mirror to the third holding barrel to be rotationally movable in increments of 90°. An orientation of a display image of the image forming panel is changed based on rotational movement states of an optical axis of a first sensor and an optical axis of a second sensor to make an orientation of a projection image on the screen match an original image.

  • Publication number: 20220040005
    Abstract: Medical gauze includes a warp knitted fabric having a warp and weft direction and composed of loops continued in the warp direction. The warp knitted fabric is made of 100% long fiber containing 70% by weight or more of regenerated cellulose-based long fiber. The warp knitted fabric is preferably configured in a marquisette construction. The regenerated cellulose-based long fiber is preferably cuprammonium rayon. Preferably having a width of equal to or greater than 5 mm and equal to or less than 600 mm, and a weight of equal to or greater than 28 g and equal to or less than 290 g per square meter. As the warp knitted fabric is composed of the loops continued in the warp direction and made of 100% long fiber containing 70% by weight or more of the regenerated cellulose-based long fiber, the occurrence of lint can be reduced to improve lint-free performance.

  • Patent number: 10830862
    Abstract: A position measuring system includes s server and radio wave emitting stations positioned at different locations across a position measuring area. A storage device stores, for each of the plurality of radio wave emitting stations, a beacon identifier that uniquely identifies the radio wave emitting station and a first threshold time. A processor receives, from a portable device, reception information including a reception time indicating when the portable device received a signal from one of the radio wave emitting stations. The processor determines, based on the received signal strength identifier, a position of the reception station in the position measuring area. The processor determines an operation state of the radio wave emitting station corresponding to the received signal. A display device displays information indicating the determined operation state of each of the plurality of radio wave emitting stations.
