Publication number: 20140372502Abstract: A mobile terminal being a searching source that searches for a communication device transmits a searching request addressed to a communication device being a searching destination using a plurality of channels without waiting for a reply to the searching request. A communication device adjacent to the mobile terminal being the searching source, upon receiving a reply to the searching request transmitted by the transmitting from the searching destination, holds the received reply. The mobile terminal being the searching source transmits an inquiry to the adjacent communication device using a plurality of channels about whether a reply to the transmitted searching request has been received from the searching destination. With this configuration, in an ad hoc network with a reactive scheme, the time taken for searching related to a partner device can be shortened.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2014Publication date: December 18, 2014Applicant: FUJITSU LIMITEDInventors: Takahiro SHIRAKAWA, Hiroaki TAMAI, Satoshi IKEDA, Hiroaki KAWASUMI, Mitsuaki YASUOKA, Masahiro MACHIDA, Satoshi KUROSAWA, Shigemasa MATSUBARA, Yoshihiko SHIROKURA

Patent number: 8549947Abstract: Provided are a ball-type speed reducer and a rotary table device that are capable of performing high-speed rotation and high-rigidity rotation and suitable for reduction in size and weight. An index table 10 includes a ball-type speed reducer 20 and a table 50 that is fixed to an upper surface of a worm wheel 30 of the ball-type speed reducer 20. When the worm gear 22 rotates as the input shaft 24 of the ball-type speed reducer 20 rotates, balls 36 made of a magnetic material move along a ball groove 26 having a spiral shape. The worm wheel 30 rotates as the balls 36 move, and the table 50 rotates. The balls 36 are attracted and held by the permanent magnet 34 on the worm wheel 30 side, so that a case for preventing the balls 36 from coming off the worm wheel 30 can be omitted, whereby the total size and weight can be reduced. Backlash is not required, so that high-speed rotation and high-rigidity rotation are possible.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2009Date of Patent: October 8, 2013Assignees: Meko Seiki Inc., Tsudakoma Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yoshio Iwase, Masahiro Machida, Yoshihiro Machida
