  • Publication number: 20210162637
    Abstract: In the present invention, it is possible to reduce the occurrence of a local deformation in a plate material during solidification and shrinkage of an injection molding material. The composite material injection molding method includes an injection step of injecting an injection molding material containing reinforcing fibers onto one surface of a plate material; and a molding step of solidifying the injection molding material to mold a frame part so as to surround the outer periphery of the plate material and to mold a rib so as to define an inner peripheral-side space on the inner peripheral side of the frame part. In the injection step, the injection molding material is injected so that a weld part at which the injection molding material converges is formed in a region not overlapping the plate material of the frame part.

  • Patent number: 10395091
    Abstract: An image-feature-value calculating unit extracts an image feature value of an image of a cell candidate area. An NRBC discriminating unit uses a pre-trained discriminator to identify whether or not a target cell is shown in the cell candidate area, on the basis of the image feature value of the image of the cell candidate area. When the cell candidate area is identified as an area in which a target cell is shown, a discrimination result display unit displays the image of the cell candidate area. When the cell candidate area is identified as an area in which a target cell is shown, a discriminator training unit trains the discriminator by using the image feature value of the image of the cell candidate area as a training sample on the basis of a user input about whether or not a target cell is shown in the cell candidate area.
