Abstract: A method for setting discrimination criterion information pieces for one or more additional denominations in a coin discrimination apparatus is provided, which eliminates the task of visiting the installation location of an existing coin discrimination apparatus to exchange this apparatus for a new one including discrimination criterion information pieces for one or more additional denominations and the task of setting discrimination criterion information pieces for the one or more additional denominations manually in the apparatus. A target denomination is designated from current denominations whose discrimination criterion information pieces are stored in a coin discrimination apparatus.

Abstract: To determine, with high accuracy, whether an anomaly has occurred in equipment to be monitored, an anomaly detection apparatus includes an acquisition unit and a determination unit. The determination unit acquires detection result information indicating a detection result of a vibration sensor attached to equipment including a movable unit. The determination unit determines, by using the detection result information, presence or absence of an anomaly of the equipment. The detection result information includes a magnitude of a vibration of each of a plurality of axes oriented in directions different from each other. The determination unit computes, with respect to each of the plurality of axes, a difference between a magnitude of a vibration at a target timing, and a magnitude of a vibration at a predetermined period of time before the target timing or a criterion value previously set.

Abstract: A vehicle seat includes an internal support member for supporting a seat occupant. The internal support member includes a main body in plate or sheet form positioned within a seat cushion frame and first and second mounting portions engaged by first and second cross members of the seat cushion frame. A pressure sensor is mounted on a part of an upper surface of the internal support member which is closer to the first cross member than the second cross member. The main body of the internal support member is formed with a pair of openings positioned on either side of a central longitudinal line. A sensor mounting portion supporting the pressure sensor is defined between mutually adjoining edges of the openings. The first mounting portion includes a central first mounting piece which is positioned laterally centrally and has a greater width than the sensor mounting portion.

Abstract: A loudspeaker system includes a housing including a first housing portion and a second housing portion that are plate-shaped and face each other, a loudspeaker drive unit fixed to the first housing portion, and a coupling member that is rigid and couples the first housing portion and the second housing portion to each other inside the housing. The coupling member includes a first end that is directly or indirectly coupled to the first housing portion and a second end that is directly or indirectly coupled to the second housing portion. When second force is applied to the coupling member, the second force being smaller than first force that irreversibly deforms or breaks a coupling portion between the coupling member and the first housing portion, the coupling member is irreversibly deformed or broken so as to shorten a distance between the first end and the second end of the coupling member.

Abstract: A switch includes: switch blades for multiple phases which perform three-position switching among ON, OFF, and ground, using a rotation shaft; and phase-to-phase connection mechanisms which support the switch blades for the phases so as to be insulated among the phases and against the ground, and which connect the switch blades for the phases and cause them to cooperate with each other. The phase-to-phase connection mechanisms include fitting couplings made of an insulating material and each composed of a large-diameter endless frame body and a small-diameter endless frame body which are fitted to each other. The fitting couplings are arranged on the same axial line.

Abstract: A coin discrimination system eliminates the task of visiting the location of an existing coin depositing/dispensing machine to exchange an existing coin discrimination apparatus incorporated in the machine for a new one and the task of additionally setting a new coin discrimination criterion manually to the existing apparatus. Pieces of specific information from pieces of sensor information are compared with pieces of current discrimination criterion information, conducting authenticity and denomination discrimination of coins. New discrimination criterion information setting coins are selected through judgement on whether the denomination of each coin is consistent with a target denomination and judgement on whether each coin is suitable for generating new discrimination criterion information while conducting the authentication and denomination discrimination. A piece of new specific information is extracted from the pieces of sensor information about the setting coins.

Abstract: A frame serving as a seatback frame for a vehicle seat and simply configured to reduce a load applied to a seated occupant at the time of a vehicle collision is provided. A seatback frame includes a connecting wire which connects side frames. The center of the connecting wire is bent to extend toward a front side of a vehicle seat. When the seated occupant is moved toward a rear side of the vehicle seat at the time of a vehicle rear-end collision, the forward extending portion restrains a portion of the back of the seated occupant in which a thoracic vertebra is located and reduces an amount of a rearward movement of the portion.
