  • Patent number: 10890183
    Abstract: A centering process and fastening bolt are not required for assembling a fixed scroll and an orbiting scroll of a scroll compressor that includes a hermetically sealed container and a compression mechanism. The fixed scroll includes a cylindrical portion formed in a circumferential direction on an outer circumferential side of the fixed wrap, a flange provided in the circumferential direction further outside of the cylindrical portion, and a first hole provided in the flange in an axial direction. The frame includes an inner circumferential surface, a flange provided in the circumferential direction further outside of the inner circumferential surface, and a second hole in the axial direction which is provided in a position of the flange opposite to the first hole. A knock pin is inserted in the first and second holes to prevent the frame and the fixed scroll from being displaced in the rotational direction.

  • Patent number: 9220978
    Abstract: A game execution unit 101 of a game apparatus 2 executes game processing in conformity with predetermined setting information including a game program, and terminates the game processing in progress in response to a command for temporary interruption from a user. A storage control unit 102 restores the state at the time of game termination by the game execution unit 101, and stores in a storage unit 107 interruption information allowing resumption of the game processing in conformity with the command for temporary interruption from the user. A setting changing unit 103 changes the predetermined setting information in response to a change command from the user. The storage control unit 102 deletes the interruption information stored in the storage unit 107 in accordance with setting change carried out by the setting changing unit 103.

  • Patent number: 8935554
    Abstract: An opening/closing detection unit detects a transition of an electronic device from an open state to a closed state or from the closed state to the open state. An electrical-power control unit sets an operation mode of an application processing unit that executes an application. When a transition from the open state to the closed state is detected while a hold switch is in an OFF state, the electrical-power control unit switches an operation mode of an application processing unit from a normal mode to a sleep mode. On the other hand, when a transition from the open state to the closed state is detected while the hold switch is in an ON state, the electrical-power control unit does not switch the operation mode of the application processing unit from the normal mode to the sleep mode.

  • Patent number: 8682048
    Abstract: In an image processing device that discriminates between a mucosal region and a non-mucosal region that are contained in an intraluminal image, the image processing device includes a residue candidate region detecting unit that detects a residue candidate region to be discriminated whether the candidate region is a mucosal region or not, on the basis of a feature data of each pixel that constitutes the intraluminal image, a structure edge region detecting unit that detects a structure edge contained in the intraluminal image, and an approximate structure edge line calculating unit and an overlap deciding unit that discriminate whether the residue candidate region is a mucosal region or not, based on a relative positional relationship between the structure edge and the residue candidate region.
