Patent number: 9581991Abstract: When a numerical controller enters a DNC operation mode, a host apparatus transmits NC data to the numerical controller. When the received NC data includes a sub program call, a repeat instruction or a branch instruction, the numerical controller stores search information that is required for executing these instructions. When the numerical controller includes search information, the host apparatus transmits, to the numerical controller, NC data corresponding to the search information. The numerical controller analyzes the received NC data and executes operation.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2014Date of Patent: February 28, 2017Assignee: FANUC CORPORATIONInventor: Masatoshi Nakajima

Patent number: 7915050Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to provide gibberellin-binding proteins, genes encoding such proteins, and applications therefor. The proteins of the present invention function as cytoplasmic receptors for gibberellin and mediate gibberellin response in plants. Plants overexpressing such genes exhibited gibberellin-hypersensitive phenotypes, such as increased plant height. In contrast, plants in which the genes were mutated exhibited gibberellin-insensitive phenotypes, and thus became dwarfed. Accordingly, plant differentiation and growth can be regulated by introducing the gibberellin-binding genes of the present invention or by suppressing the expression of same.Type: GrantFiled: March 28, 2006Date of Patent: March 29, 2011Assignee: National University Corporation Nagoya UniversityInventors: Makoto Matsuoka, Hidemi Kitano, Motoyuki Ashikari, Miyako Ueguchi, Isomaro Yamaguchi, Masatoshi Nakajima
