Abstract: When an operator attempts to move a robot from a current position to a desired position, she/he operates a manipulator lever (26) corresponding to a desired direction of a manipulator (23) of a remote control device (22), for example, a number of times corresponding to a predetermined moving amount in the moving direction. At this point, the moving amount for each moving direction depending on this number of operations is set, and a leg of the robot is actuated according to a setting value of the moving amount for each moving direction to move the robot. The moving amount that can be set by the operation of the manipulator lever (26) has a relatively small moving amount that the robot may be moved by performing a lifting/landing action once for each of the legs of the robot, and a relatively large moving amount requiring multiple walking steps of the lifting/landing action for each leg of the robot.

Abstract: A remote controller for a biped robot is of a simple arrangement capable of remotely controlling movement of the biped robot while taking into account the stability of the attitude of the robot. A manipulation unit 23 outputs, to a robot A, signals representative of manipulated positions of manipulator levers 26, 26 which correspond respectively to both legs 2, 2 of the robot A. A control unit 19 mounted in the robot A generates a motion command (desired gait) for determining motions of the legs for at least two steps of a walking action of the robot A depending on the manipulated positions of manipulator levers 26, 26 which are represented by output signal data from the manipulation unit 23, and controls motions of the legs 2, 2 based on the motion command.

Abstract: By using a variable section extrusion die set which includes a die set (24) displaceable in a first direction orthogonal to an extrusion direction of a molding material and in a second direction perpendicular the first direction and adapted to vary an area of an extrusion molding hole (31) through which the molding material is extruded, and a mandrel (27) reciprocally movable in and out of said extrusion molding hole in the extrusion direction and provided on an outer peripheral portion thereof with a tapered portion (27B) which is gradually reduced in outer configurational dimension from one direction of the reciprocally moving direction to the other, said die set being moved to deform the extrusion molding hole (31) while pressing the molding material against said die set (24), and the tapered portion of the mandrel (27) being reciprocally moved in and out of the extrusion molding hole, extrusion molding of a tubular molding is thereby accomplished which varies in outer configurational dimension and inner c

Abstract: A molded product with a variable cross sectional configuration in the longitudinal direction is subjected to extrusion molding by using a die set for extruding a molding with a variable section in a longitudinal direction, the die set comprising a first die 10 and a second die 11, the first die 10 and the second die 11 being relatively movably disposed along the web shaping-holes 16 and 28 and arranged in order in the extruding direction of a molding material such that a first extrusion hole 14 and a second extrusion hole 30 have web shaping-holes 16 and 28 communicated with each other and a flange portion shaping-hole 15 (27) of one of the dies is situated on the side of a flange portion communication hole 29 (17) of the other die, and relatively moving the first die 10 and the second die 11 while extruding the molding material towards the variable section extrusion die set.

Abstract: A software disk holder holds in a coupled state a plurality of software disk cases each having a case body and a lid such that the lid of each case can be opened and closed. Holder plates are each interposed between an upper and a lower software disk case. Each plate has upper case coupling structure to be coupled to the case body of an upper software disk case and lower case coupling structure to be coupled to the lid of a lower software disk case.

Abstract: A compact battery-feed circuit for an exchange, including two feedback circuits provided for two wires, one being a dc feedback circuit for the dc voltage on the two wires, and the other being an ac feedback circuit for the ac voltage signal on the two wires.

Abstract: A flexible magnetic sign, such as may be detachably provided on a body panel of a motor vehicle, in which bulging due to the presence of air or moisture is eliminated. The rear surface of the sign is formed with trough-indentations. This may take the form of parallel stripes, a checkered pattern, indentations having a random orientation, or a textured surface.

Abstract: A mixed dual frequency generating system for generating a digital FSK signal or a signal including two mixed frequencies includes a ROM which stores in consecutive addresses sampled data obtained by sampling a sine wave at a sampling frequency. The mixed dual frequency generating system also includes a data extracting circuit for extracting the sampled data from the ROM at the sampling frequency using an extracting step number. An output data fixing circuit changes alternate data extracted from the ROM to data "O", so that a signal having two mixed frequencies can be obtained.
