Abstract: A bracket includes a base to be bonded to a surface of a side edge portion of a glass. The side edge portion and the base are joined with a combination of at least two types of adhesives. A first adhesive has a shorter curing time than a second adhesive. The second adhesive provides stronger joining after cured than the first adhesive. In the joining, the bracket is stabilized from the outside while the side edge portion and the base are in contact with each other with the first adhesive and the second adhesive interposed therebetween. The stabilization of the bracket from the outside is released upon the first adhesive being cured. Curing the second adhesive is allowed to proceed while the bracket continues to be stabilized with the first adhesive.

Abstract: In a power supply impedance optimizing apparatus, first and second noise detecting circuits detect noises of first and second power supplies by magnetic field coupling between bonding wires of the first and second power supplies and bonding wires for first and second noise detection. A noise determining circuit determines a noise level using a frequency component in each of one or more frequency ranges as extracted from each of the noises of the first and second power supplies. The noise determining circuit controls ON/OFF state of the first switch connected between pads of the first and second power supplies and the second switch connected between pins of the first and second power supplies based on a determination result of the noise level.

Abstract: In a laser machining system, gas is injected while air is inducted from the rear of a plurality of injection nozzles (9c) disposed in the space between the machining head (3) and the workpiece (M) and disposed at stipulated intervals in the direction in which the laser light passes, so as not to disturb the machining gas, thus preventing the adhesion of dust arising during laser machining to optical components (31, 32) within the head (3). A light receptor (4) that receives light reflected or dispersed due to adhered contamination is disposed upstream of the optical components (31, 32) within the head (3), and a determination part (6) compares the light reception value against a preset threshold value.

Abstract: A method of communication involving processing by instruction using one or a combination of information units, when a user instructs a terminal to display contents and procedure of a communication, or to totalize the contents of the communication, or when a manager terminal instructs a field of the communication to provide a function of the communication corresponding to an object or stage of the communication. Information units forming the contents of the communication include cards, and information units forming premising information of a communication and a basis of the communication include boards. An information unit comprises a board identifier and attribute information for specifying a function of a board, such as a relationship between the board and cards. To provide a communication function corresponding to an object and stage of the communication, a template conforms to the object and stage so a manager can select and utilize the template.

Abstract: A drive mechanism drives a slide in a cycle along a centerline. The slide includes a press center symmetrical with a frame centerline. A frame includes guides aligned with the press center and the slide to eliminate rotative force upon the slide during operation and increase precision. The drive mechanism includes a first and a second link coupling a main gear to a crank shaft to lower a slide speed near a bottom dead center position and increase a slide speed near a top dead center thereby increasing a press force at the bottom dead center position and speeding cycle turn.
