  • Publication number: 20190161068
    Abstract: A multiple drive source-equipped vehicle includes two temperature detection parts configured to detect a temperature of external air. When a heating operation is performed at a time of vehicle driving by a first drive source, the controller determines whether or not an external air temperature is lower than a predetermined value based on a detection temperature of a temperature detection part of which a detection temperature is higher among the two temperature detection parts. The controller continues a heating operation by a first heating apparatus when it is determined that the external air temperature is not lower than the predetermined value. The controller operates the second drive source and performs a heating operation by a second heating apparatus when it is determined that the external air temperature is lower than the predetermined value.

  • Patent number: 8831762
    Abstract: A system for timbral change, capable of changing timbres included in an existing music audio signal to arbitrary timbres. Replaced harmonic peak parameters are created by replacing a plurality of harmonic peaks included in harmonic peak parameters, which are stored in a separated audio signal analyzing and storing section 3 and indicate relative amplitudes of n-th order harmonic components of each tone generated by a musical instrument of a first kind, with harmonic peaks included in harmonic peak parameters, which are stored in a replacement parameter storing section 6 and indicate relative amplitudes of n-th order harmonic components of each tone generated by a musical instrument of a second kind and corresponding to each tone generated by the musical instrument of the first kind. A synthesized separated audio signal generating section 7 generates a synthesized separated audio signal for each tone using parameters other than the harmonic peak parameters and the replaced harmonic peak parameters.

  • Patent number: 5040661
    Abstract: A container transport method for turning a container to a specified direction and transporting the container to a position for specified processing, includes a first step of transporting one of supplied containers to a first position, the one being a container leading rest of the containers; a second step of turning the container at the first position to a specified direction; and a third step of transporting the container turned to the specified direction to a second position so that the container be directed in a certain relationship with the specified direction at the second position.

  • Patent number: 4834826
    Abstract: A method of and an apparatus for cutting labels of heat-shrinkable tube covering bottles in intimate contact with the outer periphery of the bottle by melting the label with hot air applied thereto. The hot air is applied by a jet nozzle comprising a plurality of blocks which are adjustingly movable toward or away the label on the bottle. For use with bottles having a trunk of curved configuration, the blocks are individually adjusted to position each block at a specified distance from the curved bottle surface.
