  • Patent number: 11923178
    Abstract: A vacuum processing apparatus SM of this invention has: a vacuum chamber which performs a predetermined processing on a to-be-processed substrate that is set in position in the vacuum chamber. Inside the vacuum chamber there is disposed a deposition preventive plate) which is made up of a fixed deposition preventive plate and a moveable deposition preventive plate which is moveable in one direction. Further provided are: a metal block body disposed in a vertical posture on an inner wall surface of the vacuum chamber; and a cooling means for cooling the block body. In a processing position in which a predetermined vacuum processing is performed on the to-be-processed substrate, a top surface of the block body is arranged to be in proximity to or in contact with the moveable deposition preventive plate.

  • Patent number: 11505417
    Abstract: A document feeder includes a lift plate, a pickup roller, a lift motor, a retard roller, and a control unit. In a manual feed mode, the control unit rotates the retard roller to feed a document in a document conveyance direction. Further, the control unit causes the lift motor to start lowering the lift plate while the pickup roller is feeding a document after the rotation of the pickup roller is started.

  • Patent number: 11459196
    Abstract: A controller starts sheet feeding at a primary sheet feeding speed, then momentarily stops a sheet feeding rotary member, and thereafter starts secondary sheet feeding. When the secondary sheet feeding speed equals a first speed, the controller momentarily stops the sheet feeding rotary member such that the leading end of a document sheet stops at a first stop position. When the secondary sheet feeding speed equals a second speed, the controller momentarily stops the sheet feeding rotary member such that the leading end of a document sheet stops at a second stop position. The second stop position is located downstream of the first stop position in the document conveying direction.

  • Patent number: 11459197
    Abstract: The document feeder includes a lift plate, a pickup roller, a lift motor, a retard roller, and a control unit. In a manual feed mode, the control unit rotates the retard roller to feed a document in a document conveyance direction. Further, the control unit causes the lift motor to start lowering the lift plate while the pickup roller is feeding a document after starting to rotate the pickup roller. When there is a document set on the lift plate at the time when the pickup roller stops, the control unit automatically resumes the feeding in the manual feed mode.

  • Patent number: 11368594
    Abstract: Conveyance modes include a registration mode accompanied with skew correction and a registrationless mode unaccompanied with skew correction. When a jam occurs, the controller interrupts a job, and invokes blank-feed processing starting from a state with all sheets re-set. On invoking blank-feed processing, the controller checks the conveyance mode and recognizes the number of jams. If the conveyance mode is the registration mode and in addition the number of jams has not reached a threshold number of jams, the controller invokes blank-feed processing in the registrationless mode.

  • Patent number: 11324435
    Abstract: A heartbeat detection device including a time difference value calculation unit to calculate a time difference value from a sampling data string of an electrocardiographic waveform of a living body, an index value calculation unit to calculate an index value for heartbeat detection based on the time difference value, a threshold setting unit to determine whether a peak of the index value exceeding a threshold can be detected, to calculate, a threshold candidate based on an average value of the predetermined number of the most recent peaks among these peaks. A threshold candidate is set as a new threshold when the threshold candidate has a value equal to or less than a threshold limit value. A heartbeat time determination unit sets the sampling time of the peak as the heartbeat time when the peak of the index value exceeding the threshold is detected.

  • Patent number: 11128762
    Abstract: An information processing device includes an acquiring section, an encoding section, and a learning section. The acquiring section acquires log information indicating an operational condition of an electronic device. The encoding section assigns codes uniquely corresponding to the log information to the log information. The learning section applies the codes to a learning model that uses a recurrent neural network to presume an appearance probability of the log information corresponding to the codes.

  • Patent number: 11090007
    Abstract: A residual anaerobic work capacity calculating method includes a step (S1) of obtaining a heart rate, and a step (S2, S3) of calculating a residual anaerobic work capacity based on the obtained heart rate and a relationship between the residual anaerobic work capacity and the heart rate. This method need only measure the heart rate when calculating the residual anaerobic work capacity, and obviates the need to measure power by using an expensive power meter.
