  • Patent number: 11958725
    Abstract: A guide display unit for a crane, wherein a data processing unit: calculates a measurement area corresponding to the measurement area of a camera; the measurement area from the viewpoint of the camera and generates a first image; performs mosaic-processing on the image captured by the camera according to the particle size of the three-dimensional map and generates a second image; performs registration processing on the first image and the second image and calculates the amount of deviation between the first image and the second image; corrects the position of a guide frame figure with respect to the image of a suspended load and a feature on the basis of the calculated amount of deviation; and overlays the guide frame figure on the images of the suspended load and the feature and displays the result on the data display unit.

  • Patent number: 11945531
    Abstract: A steer-by-wire type steering device includes: a steering support part fixed to a vehicle body; a steering shaft rotatably supported by the steering support part; a steering wheel fixed part fixed to the steering support part; and a steering wheel rotation part connected to the steering shaft and rotatably disposed on an outer circumference of the steering wheel fixed part, wherein the steering wheel rotation part is formed in rotational symmetry with respect to a rotation axis thereof.

  • Publication number: 20230234637
    Abstract: A steering system is provided with a control unit (15) configured to determine a target steered angle (?t) according to a steering angle (?) of a steering shaft (18) which is fitted with a steering wheel (19) and drive a steering actuator so as to cause the steered angle (?) to coincide with the target steered angle, and to determine a target reaction force (Tt) according to a steered state of the wheels and drive a reaction force actuator (13) so as to cause the reaction force to coincide with the target reaction force. The control unit is configured to correct an output of the steering angle sensor in such a manner that a geometric steering center of the steering wheel coincides with a mechanical steering center of the steering shaft upon receiving a prescribed input (S) from a manual input switch (37).

  • Publication number: 20220306189
    Abstract: A vehicle system includes: a steering device including an operation member, a turning member mechanically separated from the operation member and configured to turn a wheel, a reaction force actuator configured to apply a reaction force to the operation member, and a turning actuator configured to drive the turning member; a controller; and a display device. The controller is configured to determine whether a steering angle of the operation member and a turning angle of the wheel are in a phase deviation state, and cause the display device to perform a guidance display and an actual state display in a case where the steering angle and the turning angle are in the phase deviation state, the guidance display prompting a driver to perform an operation for phase matching to improve the phase deviation state, the actual state display indicating an actual turning state of the wheel.

  • Publication number: 20150010972
    Abstract: Provided is a method for producing lactic acid by use of a filamentous fungus, in which the productivity of lactic acid can be maintained at high level even when lactic acid is produced continuously. The method for producing lactic acid of the present invention includes a first fermentation step of carrying out fermentation by use of one or more fungus cells selected from the group consisting of pellet-form filamentous fungus cells and immobilized filamentous fungus cells in a liquid culture medium having a phosphate ion concentration of less than 0.007% by mass and containing a carbon source, to thereby produce lactic acid.
