Abstract: A program update system for a working machine, includes a machine body, a working device to be used for work, the working device being provided to the machine body, a storage device to store an update program for the machine body or the working device, and an update controller to control the update program. The update controller executes the update program for the working device based on a state of the machine body or the working device.

Abstract: A brake control unit configured to control a brake to a braked state in response to a brake position sensor having detected that a steering lever has been operated to a stop position and to a released state in response to the brake position sensor having detected that the steering lever has been operated from the stop position toward a travel operation pathway and a travel position sensor having detected that the steering lever is at a neutral position, at which the steering lever is placeable to stop travel.

Abstract: An anti-theft system for a working machine, includes: a start-operation tool to issue an order to start a prime mover; an information obtaining device to obtain first information and second information; and a controller device having: a certification storage to store certification information; a start processor to obtain the order issued by the start-operation tool and to start the prime mover when the first information obtained by the information obtaining device is related to the certification information; and a registration processor to perform a registration process for registering the second information as the certification information. The registration processor allows the registration process before starting of the prime mover, and stops allowing the registration process after the starting of the prime mover.

Abstract: A vehicle subframe attached to a vehicle body includes a first side member and a second side member that extend in a front-rear direction of a vehicle body and are arranged to be opposed to each other in a width direction of the vehicle body, a cross member that is arranged to extend in the width direction and couples the first side member and the second side member to each other, and a coupling member that is arranged to extend in the width direction to be apart from the cross member toward a rear side of the vehicle body and couples the first side member and the second side member to each other.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a work vehicle that can be controlled automatically. The work vehicle includes HST's for feeding power for traveling to at least either front wheels or rear wheels mounted on a traveling vehicle body, traveling levers for operating driving of at least either the front wheels or the rear wheel, traveling links operably coupling the traveling levers with the HST's, traveling drive sections for driving either the traveling levers or the traveling links, and a traveling control section configured to activate the traveling drive sections in response to receipt of a traveling instruction for the traveling levers in the automatic control mode for automatically controlling the traveling vehicle body.

Abstract: A solenoid valve driving apparatus includes switching means for ON/OFF-controlling application of a direct current voltage to a solenoid of a solenoid valve, and signal outputting means. A first period and a consecutive second period are set as a valve opening operation period of the solenoid valve. When the signal outputting means outputs the PWM signal to the switching means, a duty ratio of the output signal is set to be higher in the second period than in the first period so that a power supplied to the solenoid is larger in the second period than in the first period. As a result, a valve opening operation is performed in the solenoid valve reliably, and loud noise generation during the valve opening operation is suppressed.

Abstract: A network service system for allowing points related to one service to be transferred to points related to another service is provided. Point information is stored in association with a user ID in databases (18, 20). When a game service is provided to a user, a game server (16) updates the point information stored in the database (20) in association with the user ID for that user to consume the user's points. A network game system (10) updates the point information stored in the database (20) in association with the user ID of the user in the game server (16) based on the point information stored in the database (18) in association with the user ID of the user in a portal site server (14).

Abstract: A pneumatic run flat tire for motorcycles having a high handling stability during straight and zigzag runnings, cornering stability and durability, even when the tire is punctured while running and the pneumatic pressure inside of the tire becomes equal to atmospheric pressure. The run flat tire has a pair of sidewall-reinforcing layers, each comprising an elastic filler extending from an end location adjacent a bead core in a bead portion to the other end location in a tread portion through a sidewall portion of the tire, the elastic filler being reinforced with at least two reinforcing plies, one of which extends along one side surface of the elastic filler toward the tread portion, and then, additionally extends into the tread portion, and the other one of which extends along the other side surface of the elastic filler toward the bead portion, and the, additionally extends into the tread portion.

Abstract: Disclosed is a run flat tire for motorcycles having a high handling stability, cornering stability and durability even when the tire is punctured during running and the pneumatic pressure inside of the tire becomes equal to atmospheric pressure. The run flat tire has a pair of sidewall-reinforcing layers each comprising (1) an elastic filler extending from an end location adjacent a bead core in a bead portion to the other end location in a tread portion through a sidewall portion of the tire and (2) at least one reinforcing ply which extends along one side surface of the elastic filler toward the tread portion, is turned up around the end of the elastic filler in the tread portion and which then further extends along the other side surface of the elastic filler toward the bead portion.

Abstract: A current-collecting elastic tire for a vehicle in which a plurality of electrodes of conductive material are continuously or discontinuously embedded in the tire body in the circumferential direction of the tire tread portion, and these electrodes are exposed at one end thereof from the tire tread surface and connected electrically at the other end thereof to the vehicle by electrical wiring so that external electric current can be collected by the tire.
