Patent number: 9879412Abstract: A pin joint type structural member, made of double steel pipe consisting of a main pipe and a stiffening pipe, restrains buckling so as to be stable under axial compressive force. A clearance between the stiffening pipe 2 and the reinforcing member is determined so that a ratio (Pc2/Pc2) of the reinforcing member contact force with the stiffening pipe inner surface at the end 4b of a counter-clevis side, to the reinforcing member contact force with the stiffening pipe inner surface at the end 4a of the clevis side may be 0.40 to 0.65 when the reinforcing member 4 inclines to the main pipe 1 due to the axial force acting on the main pipe 1. In addition, a length Lin that the stiffening pipe 2 overlaps with the reinforcing member 4 is at least 1.1 times as large as the reinforcing member outer diameter at the overlapping portion.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2013Date of Patent: January 30, 2018Assignees: JFE CIVIL ENGINEERING & CONSTRUCTION CORPORATION, JFE STEEL CORPORATIONInventors: Kazuaki Miyagawa, Wataru Kitamura, Tomohiro Kinoshita, Takumi Ishii

Patent number: 9609220Abstract: A photographing screen is divided into a plurality of blocks, for each of which a determination is made as to whether there is motion and then motion information is detected. At the same time, motion information of an image pickup apparatus is detected using an angular velocity sensor. From these motion information, the photographing screen is separated into a background region and a subject region, and contrast values in the background region are calculated. If the proportion of blocks determined to be high-contrast blocks in the background region is greater than a threshold, photographing conditions are set such that the exposure time increases as the amount of movement of the image pickup apparatus decreases. If the proportion described above is less than or equal to the threshold, photographing conditions are set such that a plurality of images are captured with different exposure times.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 2015Date of Patent: March 28, 2017Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Takumi Ishii

Patent number: 9501206Abstract: A processor in an information processing apparatus causes a display device to display a predetermined popup menu according to a predetermined operation to an input device for calling a popup menu. The processor causes the display device to superimpose and display, an enlarged image obtained by enlarging an enlargement target region which is a part of a region in an image, according to a predetermined operation for displaying the enlarged image of the enlargement target region. When the input device receives an operation for calling a popup menu relevant to the enlarged image while the enlarged image of the enlargement target region is displayed in the display device, the processor causes the display device to stop displaying of the enlarged image of the enlargement target region, and to display a first enlarged popup menu which is obtained by enlarging the popup menu relevant to the enlarged image.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2014Date of Patent: November 22, 2016Assignee: PANASONIC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT CO., LTD.Inventors: Takumi Ishii, Yusaku Nakamura

Patent number: 9417780Abstract: A processor of an information processing apparatus sets an enlargement target region in a system screen based on coordinates inputted in a coordinate input unit, superimposes and displays an enlarged image obtained by enlarging the enlargement target region, on the system screen, monitors whether or not the input in the coordinate input unit in the state where the enlarged image is displayed is performed through a drag operation of which starting coordinates are in the enlarged image. When the input in the coordinate input unit in the state where the enlarged image is displayed is performed through a drag operation of which starting coordinates are within the enlarged image, the processor monitors coordinates while the drag operation is performed. When the coordinates while the drag operation is performed come to be present within a predetermined range defined by the edge of the enlarged image, the processor erases the enlarged image.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2014Date of Patent: August 16, 2016Assignee: PANASONIC INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY MANAGEMENT CO., LTD.Inventors: Takumi Ishii, Yusaku Nakamura

Patent number: 9045913Abstract: A buckling stiffening brace member eliminates welding time. Readily available components such as a steel rod and a steel pipe can be used as an axial force member and a stiffening member. The axial force member and the stiffening member can be easily connected in a dry manner by threads. A thread for screwing with a joint is formed at an end of an axial force member. At an end of a stiffening pipe that does not have a retaining ring, a sleeve for suppressing neck bending of the axial force member is joined to the outer surface of the axial force member. The axial force member and the stiffening pipe are joined together with the retaining ring therebetween by inserting an end of the axial force member that does not have the sleeve into the inner peripheral surface of the retaining ring and joining it to the retaining ring.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2012Date of Patent: June 2, 2015Assignees: JFE STEEL CORPORATION, JFE CIVIL ENGINEERING & CONSTRUCTION CORPORATIONInventors: Takumi Ishii, Hisaya Kamura, Tomohiro Kinoshita, Kazuaki Miyagawa
