Abstract: Provided are an information processing apparatus, a head mounted display housing, and an information processing method capable of providing a virtual reality experience suitable for individual users. Provided is an information processing apparatus that is detachably held by a housing to be usable as a head mounted display, and that includes a display unit (306) that displays an image; a detection unit (308) that detects an indicator provided in the housing; and a control unit (302) that controls the image displayed on the display unit based on information indicated by the indicator, the information being detected by the detection unit.

Abstract: A horizontal rotary compressor is configured such that an electrically powered compressor body is accommodated in a horizontally long hermetic receptacle in which a lubricating oil is accumulatively preserved, an interior of the hermetic receptacle is partitioned by a partition member into an oil storage portion space in which the compressor mechanism portion is positioned and an electric motor side space in which the electric motor portion is positioned, an oil communication portion is provided below the partition member, a gas communication opening is provided in an upper portion of the partition member, and an oil feed passageway is formed of a center opening, an oil guide opening, and oil suction tubing along the rotation axis.

Abstract: A switching valve comprises a valve body to which a plurality of fluid passages are connected, a slider having a gas passage capable of selectively connecting two fluid passages, a balance port for letting the gas passage communicate with the outside of the slider, a pilot valve for opening and closing the balance port, a moving mechanism for moving the pilot valve and the slider as one body in a predetermined direction alone, and a forwardly and reversely rotatable motor unit for driving the slider to open the balance port, thereby canceling a pressure difference between the inside and outside of the slider and then moving the slider to switch the fluid passages.

Abstract: A lateral rotary compressor comprises a compressing mechanism including a blade chamber for filling the lubricating oil, and a blade contained in the blade chamber and reciprocatingly movably between the first position where the blade chamber is increased to the maximum volume and the second position where the blade chamber is decreased to the minimum volume, and a supply tube for communicating the blade chamber with bearings and having an opening formed at the position located in a lubricating oil reservoir.

Abstract: A horizontal type rotary compressor includes a lubricant distribution system which does not require a check valve for preventing the return of lubricant from the frictional bearing surfaces to the blade chamber. An eccentric blade within a blade chamber pumps lubricant out of the blade chamber through an aperture in one wall thereof. A dispensing pipe communicates the aperture of the blade chamber with the frictional bearing surfaces and includes an opening in the pipe adjacent the blade chamber. Reciprocal movement of the blade causes lubricant to be sucked through the aperture of the blade chamber and discharged from the blade chamber into the dispensing pipe. The opening in the pipe permits a larger amount of lubricant to pass into the pipe than out of the pipe, thereby effectively acting as a check valve and negating the need for a separate check valve in the lubricant distribution system.
