  • Publication number: 20170009425
    Abstract: A regulation device including a stopper receiving part mounted on the machine frame and/or the bottom of the cab includes a through hole formed at the center part, a shaft penetrating the through hole of the stopper receiving part and a stopper supported by the shaft. A spherical surface is formed on the side surface of a stopper where a stopper receiving part contacts. When the cab displaces in the direction away from the machine frame, the spherical surface of the stopper contacts in vicinity of a through hole of the receiving part to inhibit detachment.

  • Patent number: 9492137
    Abstract: A portable X-ray imaging apparatus includes an electronic cassette for imaging of an X-ray image and transmitting the X-ray image wirelessly. An image receiving unit communicates with the electronic cassette and receives the X-ray image wirelessly. A passive monitoring device receives ambient electromagnetic waves to measure communication environment by passive monitoring. An active monitoring device performs data communication between the electronic cassette and the image receiving unit to measure the communication environment by active monitoring. Furthermore, an evaluation device detects a cause of a communication failure by considering a result of the passive monitoring and a result of the active monitoring. The evaluation device detects that the cause of the communication failure is a blocking object blocking radio waves or a relative position between the electronic cassette and the image receiving unit according to the results of the passive and active monitoring.

  • Publication number: 20160213047
    Abstract: [Problem] To provide a carbonate stimulation enhancer that allows maintenance of carbonate stimulation even for carbonated beverages that have reduced “carbonate stimulation sensation” because of decreased gas pressure during packing according to ingredients, decreased gas pressure due to gas permeability of containers or rapid degassing of gaseous carbonic acid after opening a container. [Solution] Provided is a carbonate stimulation enhancer for enhancing and maintaining preferable carbonate stimulation of gaseous carbonic acid, which is obtained by the addition of an undecatriene and/or an undecatetraene as an active component to a carbonated beverage.

  • Publication number: 20150085980
    Abstract: A radiological image-capturing device includes: a first read control section that executes a first read mode in which electric signals stored in a plurality of pixels are read out simultaneously in units of a plurality of rows; and an emission-start determining section that determines that the emission of radiation from a radiation source onto an image-capturing panel has started when the values of the electric signals read by the first read control section have become greater than an arbitrarily settable threshold. If it is determined by the emission-start determining section that the emission of the radiation has started, the first read control section terminates the reading of the electric signals, and thereby brings the image-capturing panel into an exposure state.
