  • Patent number: 9160221
    Abstract: A lens holder driving device includes a lens holder for holding a lens assembly and a ring-shaped driving coil fixed to the lens holder. The lens holder has N bonded surfaces for bonding N areas of an inner surface of the driving coil to a tubular portion of the lens holder by means of an adhesive agent. At least one of the N bonded surfaces has a peeling inhibiting arrangement for inhibiting the driving coil from peeling from the lens holder after the N areas of the inner surface of the driving coil are bonded to the N bonded surfaces by means of the adhesive agent.

  • Patent number: 6860379
    Abstract: A component discharge portion is provided on the upper end of a non-end delivery belt having an upward inclined delivery surface and driven and rotated, and a component delivery path is connected to a component discharge portion and delivers a component in a predetermined attitude to the lower end side of the delivery belt. A component transfer portion for receiving the component delivered along the delivery path and for transferring the component to a next step with a constant directivity is provided on the downstream end side of the component delivery path. Furthermore, there is formed a component return path for coupling the downstream end of the component delivery path and the lower end delivery surface of the delivery belt. The component delivered in an abnormal attitude other than the component transferred to the next step is automatically returned to the delivery belt through the component return path.

  • Publication number: 20030023369
    Abstract: According to the present invention, even when a road is in such condition that error may occur in detecting the position of a vehicle when only internal sensors are used, a lane on a road where the vehicle is currently traveling is determined, and the error is reduced. Traveling lane identifying means 17 is provided on a conventional type car navigation system, and a lane where the vehicle is currently traveling is identified, and it is inquired to map database as to whether the identified lane is an exclusive lane for right turn, left turn or advancing straight ahead. As a result, when it is found that it is an exclusive lane, processing of the position calculating means 15 is carried out only to a road ahead connected to advancing direction of the exclusive lane. After the vehicle has passed through an intersection, more accurate position can be calculated.

  • Patent number: 6031470
    Abstract: An IR keyboard 1 generates key code information corresponding to key operated to add break flag information indicating distinction between in-operation and operation release to the key code information as operation status information of the key to add terminator code information indicating that the key code information corresponding to key operation every once is completed to the last portion of the key code information to transmit, as key operation information, the key code information, the break flag information and the key code information by an infrared ray signal from a light emitting unit 11. Further, a light receiving unit 2 receives the infrared ray signal transmitted from the light emitting unit 11 to input key operation information of the IR keyboard 1 to a computer unit 3.
