Abstract: A receptacle connector prevents a plug from being obliquely inserted with a simple configuration. Receptacle connector 100 has: a hollow rectangular shape shield case (120) which is made by machining a metal plate and which includes fitting slot 101; and a housing (110) which is covered by the shield case (120) and in which contacts (130) to be connected with terminal parts (230) of an inserted plug (200) are disposed. In the shield case (120), a projecting part (124) is formed extending along one side of the fitting slot (101) by denting an upper plate part (122), which defines the accommodating part (104) accommodating the plug (200), to project toward an accommodating region (104). An end surface (124a) of this projecting part (124) on the fitting slot (101) side is closer to the fitting slot (101) side than the contacts (130) and forms a plane orthogonal to the upper plate part (122).

Abstract: An interface connector makes the pitches between the contacts narrower and realizes miniaturization of the connector. This connector (100) has: a shield case (110) that includes a fitting slot (101) into which an electronic component inserted from an open side fits; a housing (120) that is covered by the shield case (110); and a plurality of contacts (140A and 140B). In the shield case (110), a plurality of contacts (140A and 140B) are disposed along the insertion direction in the housing (120) and contact point parts (141) are aligned in a row in the direction orthogonal to the insertion direction. Lead parts (144) of contacts (140A and 140B) which are adjacent in the direction orthogonal to the insertion direction, project from rear surface (104) of the connector (100), alternately in the directions orthogonal to the insertion direction and the direction in which the contact point parts are aligned in a row.

Abstract: A cooling system for a motor is prevented from exhibiting a thermal fatigue failure due to a temperature cycle. The operation or stopping of the cooling motor fan 6 of the forced cooling system is controlled using the difference between the temperature thereof and the operation start temperature Tis of the power converter 3. Thus expansion of the temperature range is suppressed.

Abstract: A rotary electric machine having improved coil connection reliability, simplified coil end processing steps and improved workability based on an improved components mounting method is to be provided. Flat type conductors are inserted in a stacked state into each of slots formed in a stator core, and a side face of a preceding-stage winding terminal end and a side face of a succeeding-stage winding start end in the flat type conductors are lapped and connected to constitute an assembly of stator coils. The stator coil assembly comprises plural coil groups, and one electrode is connected to one conductor end in the coil groups, while another electrode is moved in a successive manner to connect preceding- and succeeding-stage winding terminal and start ends of the conductors. Further, an insulating ring with crossover conductors laid thereon is combined with such stator coil assembly to connect winding terminal and start ends of the stator coil assembly, thereby constituting a predetermined winding circuit.

Abstract: To keep operation of a control circuit for a line sensor reading operation always the same regardless of variations and differences between readers, simplify the control circuit, and avoid complicated processes such as setting various software process parameters for canceling differences between the readers. A line shaped, two-wavelength transmitting LED array and a line shaped light emitting/photodetecting part comprising a photodetector array and a two-wavelength reflecting LED array are disposed in opposition each other such that a read medium passes between the two-wavelength LED array for transmitting light and the light emitting/photodetecting part, and the two-wavelength LED array for tranmitting light and two-wavelength LED array for reflecting light emit light of different wavelengths.

Abstract: A neurofilter is implemented as a neural network in which the weighting coefficients have previously been set, by an appropriate training procedure, such as to provide a desired form of filter response. The neurofilter is applicable to filtering of image data or serial data signals. Also, by training a neurofilter to produce output data based on amounts of error that occur in the output data from a conventional filter, a filter apparatus can be provided whereby the neurofilter compensates for errors in output data from the conventional filter. The design and manufacturing constraints on the conventional filter can thereby be substantially relaxed.
