Abstract: Main cells that constitute a semiconductor element having a trench gate structure include first cells, and second cells having a structure in which gate insulating films are more easily broken by energization than those in the first cells, and the number of which is smaller than that of the first cells. At a time of driving the semiconductor element, a common gate drive voltage is applied to gate electrodes of the first cells and the second cells. An electrical characteristic is measured to detect failure of the second cells due to energization at the time of driving. The gate electrodes of the failed second cells are electrically isolated from the gate electrodes of the first cells so that the gate drive voltage is not applied to the failed second cells. The failure of the first cells is predicted based on the failure of the second cells.

Abstract: A package transport device includes: a main body (a vehicle main body, a first vehicle main body, and a second vehicle main body); a rail holder (connector) held by a rail located above the main body; a turntable that is provided between the main body and the rail holder and rotates the main body; a slider portion that extends with respect to the main body; and a package holder that holds a package attached to the slider portion.

Abstract: A first case portion includes an end wall portion disposed on a first axial side with respect to a transmission. A second case portion is disposed on the first axial side with respect to a rotor of a rotary electric machine, and includes a first support portion that supports a rotor shaft and a second support portion disposed on a second axial side with respect to the rotor of the rotary electric machine to support the rotor shaft. The second support portion includes a bearing attachment portion to which a rotor bearing for supporting the rotor shaft is attached, and radially extending portion that extends from bearing attachment portion toward an outer side in a radial direction. A speed reducer is disposed between the radially extending portion and the end wall portion in axial direction to face the radially extending portion and the end wall portion in the axial direction.

Abstract: A covering member is attached to a case body, on which an actuator detachably holding the other end portion of a tether having one end portion connected to an airbag is mounted, and covers the actuator. The covering member includes an opposing portion that opposes at least a part of the actuator in an attachment direction D to the case body. The covering member includes a side surface portion that is formed to extend from the opposing portion in the attachment direction D and is locked and held by being pushed into the case body in the attachment direction D.

Abstract: In the disk array device, the critical I/O from the host can be responded regardless of the state of the storage unit to be accessed and without occurring an answer delay and system down so that both of the I/O performance and the system reliability can be improved. In the disk array device, a DKC to control data storage to a HDD includes CM to perform the data I/O processing to the HDD responsive to the I/O request from the host. A response impossible state due to the life extension process may be occurred in the HDD. The DKC determines the specified I/O pattern in the received I/O and previously performs the cache control to the critical I/O target data associated with the specified I/O pattern using a CM according to the information in the DB. The critical I/O request is responded using the cache resident data on the CM.
