  • Publication number: 20240384759
    Abstract: [Problem] To provide a linear motion device using a highly reliable and environmentally friendly separator that improves a dimensional stability, ductility, and adhesion of greases based on poly-?-olefin oil, which are required for separators, and also prevents deformation at high speeds. [Solution] Provided is a linear motion device including a linear motion body (15) that is fitted onto a screw shaft (11) and moves straight along the screw shaft (11), a large number of balls (B) held in a ball groove (14) formed on an inner surface side of the linear motion body (15) and rolling between the ball groove (14) and the screw shaft (11), a separator (100) interposed 10 between each ball (B), a circulation passage (18) formed in the linear motion body (15) and circulating the ball (B) from one end side of the ball groove (14) to the other end side, where at least one of the separator (100) and the circulation passage (18) is formed from polyamide 410 by injection molding.

  • Publication number: 20240354951
    Abstract: An estimation apparatus includes an input unit and an approximator. Input information including an image in which a bone appears is input into the input unit. The approximator is configured to determine an estimation result related to bone density of the bone from the input information. The approximator includes a learned parameter to obtain the estimation result.

  • Publication number: 20240122565
    Abstract: A user is presented with determination information obtained by determining a condition of a target site and feature information indicating a feature related to a condition of a body of a subject, which are generated from the same image representing the target site of the subject. A determination system includes an acquirer that acquires a target image representing a target site of a body of a subject, a first generator that generates first determination information indicating a condition of the target site from the target image used to generate the first determination information, a second generator that generates feature information indicating a feature related to a condition of the body of the subject from the target image, and a display controller that causes a display apparatus to display the first determination information and the feature information.

  • Publication number: 20240119587
    Abstract: A prediction image is generated and output that represents a condition of a target region of a subject. A prediction system includes a prediction information acquirer that acquires (a) a subject image representing a target region of a subject at a first time, and (b) first prediction information regarding the target region at a second time when a predetermined period has elapsed from the first time; and a prediction image generation unit that generates a prediction image indicating a condition of the target region at the second time from the subject image based on the first prediction information and output the prediction image.

  • Publication number: 20230358278
    Abstract: Provided is a rolling bearing using a retainer, particularly a highly reliable retainer in which dimensional stability required for a retainer of an outer ring guide type, ductility required for a crown-type retainer, improvement in adhesion of grease with a poly-?-olefin oil or the like as a base oil, and deformation prevention at a high speed can be achieved. The rolling bearing includes at least an inner ring 1, an outer ring 3, a synthetic resin retainer 9, and a rolling element 7, in which the synthetic resin retainer 9 is formed of a polyamide resin composition including polyamide 410 and a reinforcing fiber material with a content of 0% by weight to 40% by weight.
