Abstract: An eyeglass frame measurement apparatus includes a holding unit; a rotational base and a tracing stylus arranged on the rotational base. Three-dimensional shape of a frame is measured by detecting the movement of the tracing stylus in a radius direction and a warpage direction. Slit place is integrally arranged with the stylus and a light-projection-and-receiving unit that includes a light-emitting portion and a two-dimensional sensor capable of selecting a received pixel is arranged on the base. The two-dimensional sensor includes first and second light-receiving lines not parallel to each other, and includes a first slit not parallel to the first light-receiving line and a second slit not parallel to the second light-receiving line. The movement of the stylus is detected based on a projection position of the first and second slits detected by the first and second light-receiving lines.

The centrifugal separator includes a filter arranged at the upper portion of the dewatering tank and having an opening inserted with the drain pipe for filtering the grinding water separated from the processing refuse by a centrifugal force generated due to rotation of the dewatering tank.

Abstract: An eyeglass lens processing apparatus includes: a controller that controls a second driver for rotating lens chucks for chucking an eyeglass lens and a third driver for changing an axis-to-axis distance between an axis of a processing tool and an axis of the lens chucks so that a processing load falls below an allowable value; and a processing mode selector that selects one of a first processing mode in which the allowable value is set to be high, and a second processing mode in which the allowable value is set to be low so as to suppress axis deviation when the lens having a surface slipping readily is processed. The controller controls the first driver so that a second chucking pressure of the lens chucks when the second processing mode is selected is smaller than a first chucking pressure of the lens chucks when the first processing mode is selected.

Abstract: A mobile terminal in which the user can manipulate the pointer easily without keystrokes or any pointing device. When the select button of an input unit is depressed, a tilt sensor provided with an accelerometer detects the tilt of a mobile terminal from a reference angle. Based on the tilt of the mobile terminal, a processor calculates the moving direction and speed of the pointer to move the pointer on a display. If the degree of the tilt increases, the pointer movement is accelerated. On the other hand, if the degree of the tilt decreases, the pointer movement is deaccelerated. When the pointer reaches an activate button to activate a desired application program, the pointer movement stops by returning the tilt of the mobile terminal to the reference angle. Upon release of the button, the application program is executed. That is, the pointer movement on the display screed can be controlled in such a manner that a marble is rolled on a plate according to the degree of the tilt of the plate.
