  • Publication number: 20130218363
    Abstract: Provided is a power supply control device capable of reducing power consumption even when the amount of time the electrical equipment is used is indeterminate. This power supply control device (700) controls the supply of power to multiple lines on which electrical equipment is arranged, and has: a power supply control instruction unit (760), which provisionally supplies power to lines to which power is not being supplied; a power calculation unit (730), which determines for each line whether there has been an increase in the power consumption; and a power supply status determination unit (750) which, after power has been supplied provisionally, stops the provisional supply of power to a line when the power consumption on that line has not increased.

  • Patent number: 8444520
    Abstract: A gear device has an outer cylinder fixed to a first mating member and a crankshaft inside the outer cylinder. An external gear is mounted to an eccentric portion of the crankshaft and meshes with internal teeth of the outer cylinder. A carrier is fixed to a second mating member. Rocking rotation of the external gear rotates the carrier coaxially to the outer cylinder. A cylindrical body is inserted in an axial through-hole of the carrier. The carrier has a first portion on one end of the cylindrical body and a second portion on an axially intermediate portion of the cylindrical body. The other end of the cylindrical body extends toward a corresponding mating member while protruding axially beyond the second portion. An outer diameter of remaining portions of the cylindrical body do not exceed an outermost diameter of the portion on which the first and second portions are fit.

  • Publication number: 20120306312
    Abstract: An external cylindrical ring for use in this rotating electric machine includes a body portion and a flange, the body portion including a fastening region making internal contact with an outer circumferential surface of a stator core to be fastened to the outer circumferential surface of the stator core, and a skirt region located at a bottom surface side of a casing and having an inner diameter larger than an inner diameter of the fastening region. When the external cylindrical ring is fastened to the stator core, the deformation of the skirt region of the external cylindrical ring can be suppressed, thus enabling the dimensional accuracy of an outer surface of a cylindrical skirt region of the external cylindrical ring to fall within tolerance.

  • Patent number: 8323140
    Abstract: The length of an inner meshing planetary gear type reduction gear transmission is reduced in its rotational axis line direction. A crank member is arranged between a through hole of an external gear, a through hole of an external gear, and a support pin. An eccentric disk that fits with the through hole of the external gear and an eccentric disk that fits with the through hole of the external gear are formed on the crank member. A bearing is arranged between the support pin and the crank member, this bearing supporting the crank member such that the crank member is capable of rotating with respect to the support pin. The length of the reduction gear transmission in its rotational axis line direction is reduced by contracting the length of the crank member, this reduction in length not including the length thereof that has the eccentric disks.
