  • Patent number: 9679232
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes the following elements. A circuit forming device forms a circuit configured in accordance with configuration information. A first storage unit stores first configuration information externally obtained via a first communication line. The first configuration information is used for forming a first circuit implementing a function including a first communication function in the circuit forming device. A second storage unit stores second configuration information different from the first configuration information. The second configuration information is used for forming a second circuit implementing a function including the first communication function in the circuit forming device.

  • Publication number: 20160117575
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes: an image forming section that forms an image on a recording medium using color material having color and transparent color material; a reading section that reads the image formed on the recording medium by the image forming section; and a reference data calculation section that calculates reference data based on read data obtained when the reading section reads a first color sample which is formed using only the color material having color by the image forming section and a second color sample which is formed using the color material having color and the transparent color material by the image forming section; and in which an image on the recording medium, which is an inspection target and is read by the reading section, is inspected by an inspection section based on the reference data calculated by the reference data calculation section.

  • Patent number: 8508776
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus including: an assignment portion that, when a plurality of dynamic reconfigurable processors (DRPs) execute image processes by a pipeline process mode based on a print job, assigns identification numbers identifying the DRPs to the DRPs based on the number of DRPs; a first change portion that changes an assignment process by the assignment portion, based on whether a DRP of a final stage in the DRPs is connected to an outputting portion, the outputting portion outputting the results of the image processes to an outside; and a second change portion that, when the DRP of the final stage in the DRPs is disconnected from the outputting portion, further changes the assignment process by the assignment portion based on whether the DRPs are placed on only a single substrate.

  • Patent number: 6709045
    Abstract: A roof side rail has a closed cross-section formed by integrating side rail outer and inner, and a part of the side rail forms an upper edge of a vehicle body side opening. A pipe-shaped reinforcing member is inserted into the side rail from the front side thereof to a part forming the upper edge of the opening, and is fixed to the side rail inner. Therefore, even when cross-sectional areas between the front side of the side rail and the part of the side rail forming the upper edge of the opening differ, both of which are connected to each other via a step part deviated to the largest degree, the stiffness of the step part is increased, and the number of parts and man-hours required for welding are reduced.

  • Publication number: 20030085593
    Abstract: There is provided a vehicle body structure in which a roof side rail has a closed section formed by integrating together a roof side rail outer and a roof side rail inner, and a part of the roof side rail in a longitudinal direction thereof forms an upper edge of a vehicle body side opening which is opened and closed by a sliding door. In the vehicle body structure, a pipe-shaped reinforcing member is inserted into the roof side rail from the front side thereof up to a part forming the upper edge of a rear opening, and is fixed to the roof side rail inner by welding. Therefore, in the vehicle body structure in which there is a difference in sectional area between the front side of the roof side rail and the part of the roof side rail forming the upper edge of the rear opening, both of which are connected to each other via a step part deviated to the largest degree, it is possible to improve the stiffness of the step part, reduce the number of parts and the man-hour required for welding.
