  • Publication number: 20110032481
    Abstract: When a bright spot image A received by an imaging unit is extracted, in step S1, a light emitting surface P of an operational distance index is minutely moved back and forth in an optical axis direction of an imaging optical system toward a cornea. In step S2, bright spots are extracted at a center and maximum positions in back and forth directions of the reciprocation movement. In steps S3 to S5, a size of the bright spot image A at each position is determined, and it is determined whether to move an optical unit forward or backward, or to stop the optical unit based on a relationship between a position of the light emitting surface P and the size of the bright spot image A. In step S5, when it is determined that the optical unit is moved to a proper position, a fundus camera enters into a shooting standby state. In step S8, shooting is performed by pressing a shooting switch.

  • Publication number: 20100091433
    Abstract: The electrolytic capacitor includes two chemically processed anode foils, two cathode foils, four separator sheets, four lead tab terminals, two anode leads and two cathode leads. The two chemically processed anode foils, two cathode foils and four separator sheets are arranged alternately and rolled, to form a capacitor element. Two lead tab terminals are connected to the two chemically processed anode foils, respectively, and the remaining two lead tab terminals are connected to two cathode foils, respectively. The two anode leads are connected to two lead tab terminals, respectively, and the two cathode leads are connected to two lead tab terminals, respectively. As a result, equivalent series resistance can stably be reduced.
