  • Patent number: 7155753
    Abstract: A control device for a sanitary device for a toilet assembly which reduces the size of a control case and increases the damp-proof characteristics of an electrically conductive member by restricting the invasion of water, urine, and moisture content. The control device includes a shower portion for washing the anus or genitals of an individual that includes a control case made of resin and having an accommodation chamber therein. The control device includes mounted devices having an electric part and an electronic part accommodated in the accommodation chamber of the control case, and an electrically conductive member made of electrically conductive material and embedded in a wall portion of the control case and having a first end portion electrically connected to a part of the mounted devices and a second end portion electrically connected to another part of the mounted devices in the accommodation chamber.

  • Patent number: 4879615
    Abstract: A disk file apparatus including an accommodating shelf having a multiplicity of accommodating spaces provided therein in a row in the vertical direction, a multiplicity of cartridges disposed in the accommodating spaces, respectively, each having a disk received therein, a coder which writes or reads information in relation to either the side A or B of the disk received in each of the cartridges, and a carrier arranged such as to move vertically along the front surface of the accommodating shelf, draw out one of the multiplicity of cartridges, and load the cartridge into the coder after turning the cartridge through 180 degrees according to need. The disk file apparatus is provided with a transfer mechanism disposed at the side of the apparatus which is closer to the accommodating shelf.

  • Patent number: 4844679
    Abstract: A disk file apparatus including a transfer member disposed at the upper side of a shelf for accommodating a multiplicity of cartridges each receiving a disk both sides of which are able to be subjected to recording and reproducing, each cartridge having a forward extending groove formed in the rear portion thereof. The transfer member has lever means which is arranged such that, when a cartridge having the same rating as that of said cartridges is inserted into the transfer member, the lever means detects whether or not there is a groove which is formed in the rear portion of the cartridge.

  • Patent number: 4836621
    Abstract: A disk file apparatus is provided with a plurality of storage compartments disposed in a vertical column for receiving a cartridge therein. A transfer member adapted to receive a single cartridge is mounted for horizontal movement within a housing surrounding the entire apparatus for movement between a position above the storage compartments in alignment therewith and a position disposed adjacent an access opening whereby a cartridge may be removed from or placed in the transfer device. Doors are provided for closing the access opening and are opened automatically by the transfer member. A carrier having cartridge gripping device is mounted for vertical movement along the plurality of storage compartments and the transfer member for transferring cartridges between the transfer member and a respective storage compartment and between a respective storage compartment and a coding apparatus.

  • Patent number: 4789209
    Abstract: A casing for storing cassettes is provided with a plurality of adjacent slots for receiving a plurality of respective cassettes. A resilient bar is disposed adjacent the innermost end of each slot and is provided with a half-round intermediate portion which projects into the slot to engage and position a cassette in the correct location. The opposite ends of the resilient bar are slidably connected to the casing to allow the resilient bar to flex and asorb shocks caused by excessive force in the insertion of the cassette into the slot.

  • Patent number: 4757401
    Abstract: A cartridge handling mechanism for use in a disk file system having a stocker in which a multiplicity of thin cartridges respectively having disks accommodated therein are respectively accommodated in a multiplicity of accommodating shelves in parallel to each other, a player for writing and reading data onto and from the disk in each cartridge, and a carrier linearly moved along the front side of the stocker. The carrier has a pair of engagement members selectively engaged with a pair of grooves respectively provided in two side end surfaces at one end of each of the cartridges, so that a selected cartridge is drawn out of the stocker by means of the pair of engagement members, moved to a position facing the front side of the player by the operation of the carrier and then pushed out from the carrier and inserted into the player by the action of the engagement members.

  • Patent number: 4742405
    Abstract: A device for storing and retrieving cassettes includes a casing in which a plurality of cassettes are stored in a radial array about a vertically disposed axis. A carrier for transferring a selected cassette from the casing to a processor is pivotally mounted on the same axis as the casing for rotational movement about said axis. The carrier device is vertically moveable for alignment with different radial arrays of cassettes and the carrier is provided with a cassette gripper device which is horizontally moveable into said casing for gripping a selected cassette. The cassette gripping means is also mounted for rotational movement about a horizontal axis on the carrier device so that the cassette gripped thereby may be rotated to present one side or the other of a double sided disc within the cassette for processing.
