  • Patent number: 11941314
    Abstract: A display control device includes one or more processors configured to: acquire information regarding a plurality of driving evaluation items set in advance; count, as the number of times of measurement, the number of times that at least one of a vehicle state and a driving state meets each of the driving evaluation items while a driver is driving a vehicle; display the driving evaluation items in a display region in a vehicle cabin; and visually display information relating to the remaining number of times that is a difference between the permissible number of times set for each of the driving evaluation items and the number of times of measurement.

  • Publication number: 20240091928
    Abstract: A wrist of an arm robot includes a first motor, a first speed reducer, a second motor, a transmission shaft, and a second speed reducer. The first motor is arranged at a base and generates a first rotational drive force to rotate a first distal portion. The first speed reducer is arranged at the first distal portion, includes a hollow portion, and reduces a rotational speed of the first rotational drive force. The second motor is arranged at the base and generates a second rotational drive force to rotate a second distal portion. The transmission shaft is arranged at the first distal portion and passes through the hollow portion of the first speed reducer. The second speed reducer is arranged at the first distal portion, is arranged coaxial with the first speed reducer, and is arranged along an axial direction of the first speed reducer.

  • Patent number: 10800410
    Abstract: The driving support ECU performs a steering control for changing a steering angle in such a manner that an own vehicle travels along a target path. When a state in which holding state information does not satisfy a first condition continues for a first time threshold or more, the ECU starts a first alert and continues the steering control. The holding state information includes information indicative of a steering torque and represents a holding state of a steering handle by a driver. When a state in which the holding state information does not satisfy a second condition for a second time threshold or more after the first alert is started, the ECU starts a deceleration control. The second condition is a condition satisfied when the holding state information indicates that the driver holds the steering handle more firmly than when the holding state information satisfies the first condition.

  • Patent number: 6716490
    Abstract: A method for making an enameled steel sheet includes the steps of spraying a slurry to form a slurry layer onto a surface of a substrate and firing the slurry layer. In this method, the slurry has a static surface tension of 50 dyne/cm or less and an apparent viscosity of 500 mPa·s that is measured with a model E viscometer at a rotation of 100 rpm. Alternatively, the method includes a step of spraying a slurry for forming an enamel layer onto a surface of a substrate, wherein the substrate is vibrated when the slurry is applied or when the slurry applied is still fluid.

  • Patent number: 6334885
    Abstract: A method of solidifying a steel-making slag is performed by subjecting a mixture of a steel-making slag containing at least about 50% by weight of a powdery steel-making slag having a particle size not greater than about 5 mm and a substance containing at least about 30% by weight of SiO2 (e.g., a fly ash and/or the fine powder of a granulated blast furnace slag) to a hydration reaction. The resulting solidified material contains at least about 20% of a tobermorite phase, has high strength and is suitable as an inorganic material useful as a roadbed material, building and civil engineering materials, etc.
