  • Patent number: 9764707
    Abstract: A structure of an underrun protection bound to a plurality of brackets disposed at the front or rear portion of a frame of a vehicle is disclosed. The structure has a hollow having a closed section defined by a distal face of a longitudinal direction of the vehicle, a proximal face of the longitudinal direction, an upper face, and a lower face. A plurality of lightening holes are formed in line along an extending direction of the underrun protection on at least one of the distal face and the proximal face. The plurality of lightening holes have diameters in vertical direction set larger as departing farther from binder parts each at which the underrun protection is bound to one of the plurality of brackets.

  • Patent number: 8995748
    Abstract: A defect image processing apparatus uses a normalized cross correlation to image-match a layout image (52) acquired from a design data with an image acquired by removing, from a defect image (53), the defect area portions thereof, and displays, as a result of that matching, a layout image and defect image (54) on the display device. In the displayed layout image & defect image (54), not only the layout image, the layer of which is the same as that of the defect image (53), but also a layout image of another layer is displayed superimposed on the defect image (53). This makes it easier to analyze the factor of a systematic defect having occurred due to a positional relationship with another layer.

  • Patent number: 8139845
    Abstract: There is provided an evaluation object pattern determining apparatus capable of determining local patterns to be evaluated. The apparatus is for use in a pattern evaluating system storing patterns of a LSI chip as CAD data, picking out coordinates of local patterns whose process margin is small from the CAD data by way of simulation and assisting observation of the local patterns produced in a fabrication line. The apparatus includes a risk level map creating section for creating risk level maps in which risk areas are disposed. The risk area is assigned with a risk level obtained by digitizing that the risk area is an area whose process margin is smaller than other areas. The apparatus also includes a superimposition processing section for superimposing the coordinates of the local patterns with the risk level map to pick out the coordinates of the local patterns located within the risk area.

  • Patent number: 6506968
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a sound source device, and more particularly, it aims at providing a sound source device, in which a sufficient sound emitting quantity can be attained, capable of obtaining a reproduced sound of musically rich expression. And, in order to attain the aforementioned object, it is possible to solve such a problem that energy density is low and sound emitting efficiency is inferior by employing a pseudo-rectangular wave increasing spectral density as waveform data input in a waveform table (TB). For this, it is rendered a spectrum including spectral lines X1, X2, X3 and X4 in a range matching with a frequency domain (HR) having high sound emitting efficiency and including even harmonics.

  • Publication number: 20020141553
    Abstract: A transmission line rerouting method includes the steps of selecting a predetermined trunk transmission line to be rerouted, from trunk transmission lines, coupling a first subscriber line accommodating apparatus which is coupled to the predetermined trunk transmission line and a second subscriber line accommodating apparatus which is coupled to a trunk transmission line other than the predetermined trunk transmission line, via a rerouting transmission line, and transmitting and receiving a data which is to be exchanged between the first subscriber line accommodating apparatus and the trunk transmission line accommodating apparatus, via the second subscriber line accommodating apparatus and the trunk transmission line other than the predetermined trunk transmission line.
