  • Patent number: 12231051
    Abstract: At a first node, an intermediate voltage potential occurs between a voltage potential of the first input terminal and a voltage potential of the second input terminal A second node is connected to ends of primary windings of transformers of LLC resonant converters. A switch circuit is connected between the first node and the second node. A control circuit is configured to turn on a switch circuit when a load current of a load apparatus connected to a first output terminal and a second output terminal is equal to or smaller than a predetermined criterion and turn off the switch circuit when the load current of the load apparatus is larger than the predetermined criterion.

  • Publication number: 20240064249
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured in which an area to be processed in a document is specified using a position of a marker placed on a surface of the document. When the marker is placed, the processor uses a placement position of the marker to specify the area to be processed and register area information indicating the area to be processed. When the marker is not placed and the area information is registered, the processor executes predetermined processing with respect to the area to be processed that is indicated by the area information. When the marker is not placed and the area information is not registered, if the area information is registered after a predetermined area of the document is registered as a target, the processor specifies the area to be processed as indicated by the area information as the area to be targeted by the processing.

  • Patent number: 11639569
    Abstract: Provided is a sewing machine capable of positioning feed dogs with a sufficient distance below the upper surface of a throat plate when the feed dogs are retracted. Feed dogs 3 protrude and retract from a throat plate 1. A horizontal feed drive unit 8 converts the rotation of a drive shaft 7 into a reciprocating motion in the horizontal direction and transmits the horizontal reciprocating motion to the feed dogs 3. A vertical drive unit 9 converts the rotation of the drive shaft 7 into a reciprocating motion in the vertical direction and transmits the vertical reciprocating motion to the feed dogs 3. A vertical position changing part moves turn-back points P at both ends of a forward path and a return path when the feed dogs 3 reciprocate in the horizontal direction below the throat plate 1.
