Abstract: The invention of the present application intends to provide a work machine that can ensure high operability by preventing abrupt actuation of an actuator and a shock to a machine body by use of a bleed-off function at the time of starting of the actuator and that can improve the energy-saving performance by reducing a bleed-off flow rate after the starting of the actuator. For this purpose, a controller opens a bleed-off valve at a timing at which an operation device is being operated and before a flow rate of a hydraulic pump starts increasing, and closes the bleed-off valve at a timing at which the operation device is being operated and after the flow rate of the hydraulic pump has started increasing.

Abstract: According to the present disclosure, provided is a network system including a plurality of devices and a network management apparatus connected to the plurality of devices by an IP transmission line, and the network management apparatus (100) includes a setting execution unit (116) configured to execute setting of a path to which the plurality of devices are connected, and setting of parameters for controlling the plurality of devices. With this configuration, it is possible to freely set a connection path and devices in a system in which a plurality of devices are connected.

Abstract: A cylindrical body arranged between a shaft body and a blade of a horizontal axis wind turbine is constituted of a cylindrical barrel portion, a first flange portion fixed to a first end of the barrel portion so that the blade is connected thereto, and a second flange portion fixed to a second end of the barrel portion and connected to the shaft body. The barrel portion is constituted of a cylindrically formed rubber stock and a plurality of filamentary bodies embedded in the rubber stock and arranged in a state inclined by a prescribed angle with respect to a direction parallel to an axial direction. When tensile force F develops in the barrel portion due to centrifugal force resulting from rotation of the blade, both opening ends of the barrel portion twistedly rotate due to actions of the filamentary bodies. Thus, it follows that the pitch angle of the blade connected to the first flange portion automatically varies with a wind speed.
