Abstract: A registration processing apparatus generates a polynomial to calculate a value corresponding to a distance from the surface of a target object in a first image, and acquires a plurality of position coordinates on the surface of the target object in a second image. Then the apparatus respectively calculates a value corresponding to the distance from the surface of the target object in the first image using the polynomial, for position coordinates obtained by coordinate conversion of the plurality of position coordinates. The apparatus coordinate-converts the position coordinates of the second image by a coordinate conversion method for the plurality of position coordinates determined based on the calculated values.

Abstract: In an inner structure of a filler neck of a fuel filler tube, a nozzle support section for supporting a nozzle of a fuel filling gun at a gas station includes a pipe member having an inner diameter substantially equal to the outer diameter of the nozzle, and the nozzle is inserted in the pipe member when fueling. Fuel emitted from the nozzle is directed through the pipe member to an outlet end (distal end) of the nozzle support section, at which it starts flowing along an intermediate bent section of the filler tube. Thus, even when the fuel filling gun is not sufficiently inserted in the filler neck, i.e. inserted short of a standard inserted amount, the fuel is allowed to properly jet out in the bent section just as when the fuel filling gun is sufficiently inserted in the filler neck up to the standard inserted amount.

Abstract: A vehicle body structure with a fuel tank and canister is disclosed. A communication path connecting a fuel tank with a canister is provided to pass between a rear cross-member and an expanded portion of an underbody.

Abstract: It is to provide an acrylic rubber composition which provides an acrylic rubber vulcanizate retaining high tensile strength and modulus even if a long-term thermal load is applied and contains no component limited by environmental regulations. The above object is attained by an acrylic rubber composition comprising 100 parts by weight of a carboxyl group-containing acrylic rubber and 0.3 to 8 parts by weight of a styrenated diphenylamine compound, and by an acrylic rubber composition further comprising 0.05 to 20 parts by weight of a crosslinking agent besides the above components.

Abstract: An electrolytic treatment apparatus for applying an electrochemical treatment by supplying an alternating current between a material being treated and a counter electrode in an electrolyte, wherein said electrolytic treatment being carried out by forming the counter electrode by a main counter electrode and an auxiliary counter electrode, connecting a circuit for the auxiliary counter electrode, in parallel, to a circuit connected to the main counter electrode, providing a diode or a mechanism of performing a diode-like action in the circuit for the auxiliary counter electrode for controlling an anode current in the main counter electrode, using an electrode containing magnetic iron oxide as the auxiliary counter electrode. The deterioration of the auxiliary counter electrode can be prevented without reducing the electrolytic treatment capacity, and cost for the equipment preservation can be greatly reduced.
