  • Patent number: 11964402
    Abstract: In a robot control system, the operation of a mobile robot that moves autonomously inside a facility is controlled based at least on an image captured by a photographing device that photographs a blind area located at a blind angle to the mobile robot. When entry of the mobile robot into a predetermined area corresponding to the blind area is detected, the amount of information obtainable from an image captured by the photographing device is increased.

  • Patent number: 10400729
    Abstract: A fuel injection valve according to the present invention has an expanded portion formed in a first injection-hole plate on an upstream side, thereby allowing positional misalignment between injection-hole portions. As a result, a radial dimension between an inner diameter-side circumferential edge of an upstream-side injection hole outlet portion and an inner diameter-side circumferential edge of a downstream-side injection hole inlet portion is not required. Thus, a plate thickness of a second injection-hole plate on a downstream side can be kept to minimum. As a result, weldability between an injection-hole plate body and a valve seat is improved.
