Publication number: 20250060805Abstract: The information processing device includes a CPU, DRAM, SRAM and hibernation circuitry. The hibernation circuit executes an evacuation processing of reading out particular data which is data stored in DRAM and storing the particular data in SRAM when a predetermined execution condition for hibernation is satisfied. CPU shuts off the electric power supply to DRAM while maintaining the electric power supply to SRAM after the evacuation processing is completed. When startup, CPU reads out the particular data stored in SRAM when the particular data is stored in SRAM.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 22, 2024Publication date: February 20, 2025Applicant: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Satofumi KURISU, Kosuke OHASHI, Ryo ANAN, Ryota NAKABAYASHI, Nobutaka SUZUKI, Kiyoto SUZUKI

Patent number: 12083806Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a head unit including a recording head and configured to move between a recording position where recording is performed on a medium and a retraction position away from a medium transportation path; a movement mechanism that moves the head unit; and a positioning portion configured to position the head unit at the recording position. A moment for rotating the head unit is produced by a force applied by the movement mechanism to the head unit and by a reaction force received by the head unit from the positioning portion. A unit pusher configured to apply, to the head unit, a force acting in a direction of canceling rotation of the head unit when the head unit is located at the recording position pushes the head unit in a direction intersecting with a moving direction of the head unit.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2022Date of Patent: September 10, 2024Assignee: Seiko Epson CorporationInventor: Nobutaka Suzuki

Patent number: 10086433Abstract: A process for producing an electrode material by infiltrating a highly conductive metal such as Cu into a porous object containing heat-resistant elements. Before an infiltration step in which the highly conductive metal is infiltrated, a HIP treatment is given to a powder containing the heat-resistant elements (or to a molded object obtained by molding a powder containing the heat-resistant elements). The composition is controlled so that the HIP treatment yields a porous object which has a degree of filling of 70% or higher, more preferably 75% or higher. The highly conductive metal is infiltrated into the porous object having the controlled composition.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2015Date of Patent: October 2, 2018Assignee: MEIDENSHA CORPORATIONInventors: Kaoru Kitakizaki, Keita Ishikawa, Shota Hayashi, Nobutaka Suzuki
