Abstract: There is provided an article inspection verification system provided in an article inspection line including a plurality of article inspection devices that determine whether an inspection target article is a non-defective product or a defective product. The article inspection verification system includes physical effect generators that generate a physical effect that causes the inspection target article to be determined to be the defective product while the inspection target article passes through inspection sections corresponding each of article inspection devices, and a physical effect control unit that stores generation conditions of the physical effect by the physical effect generators and drives the physical effect generators in accordance with the generation conditions during an operation of the article inspection line.

Abstract: Provided is a reaction-curable adhesive that exhibits an excellent adhesive strength even under a low-temperature environment. The reaction-curable adhesive includes an epoxy compound and an amine compound, the reaction-curable adhesive being cured through a reaction between the epoxy compound and the amine compound, in which a compound having a specific molecular structure is used as at least one of the epoxy compound or the amine compound.

Abstract: A rotor has a projection part projected from an inner wall of a central hole part toward a central axis and a rib part defined between opening parts adjacent with each other in a circumferential direction. A first imaginary straight line is defined to extend from the central axis outward in a radial direction through a center of the projection part. The projection part is formed so that the first imaginary straight line passes the opening part. A second imaginary straight line is defined to extend from the central axis outward in the radial direction through a center of the rib part. The rib part is formed so that the second imaginary straight line passes a center of a pole part or an intermediate position between pole parts adjacent with each other in the circumferential direction.

Abstract: A motor is provided having a consequent-pole type rotor that has soft magnetic material poles and magnetic poles positioned around the rotor in an alternating manner. A convex surface on each of the poles is formed as a surface in which a midpoint of the convex surface has a radial distance from the rotation axis that is greater than a radial distance of the circumferential edges of the convex surface from the rotation axis. A radial width of a first magnetism transfer part of a cylindrical yoke and a radial width of a second magnetism transfer part of the magnetic pole fulfill a relationship such that an appropriate balance of the magnetic resistance between the first magnetism transfer part and the second magnetism transfer part is achieved. As a result, cogging torque is reduced without reducing output torque.

Abstract: A housing and a rotary shaft of a motor are formed of non-magnetic material. A soft magnetic member is provided between a first axial end surface of a fixed core and a bearing. The soft magnetic member is provided on the fixed core side relative to the first bearing thereby to suppress magnetic flux leaking to a vicinity of one end part of the rotary shaft by leading the magnetic flux, which is generated from a rotor, to the rotor core through the fixed core and a casing. A magnetic angular position sensor fixed to one end part of the rotary shaft can detect a magnetic angular position of the rotor accurately without being affected by external magnetic field. As a result, noise generated by vibration of the motor can be suppressed.

Abstract: A communication system and communication apparatus that can improve the stability and security of communication. In this communication system, a communication apparatus (101) generates, at a predetermined interval, a keep-alive message based on key information stored in a key information database part (113) and transmits the keep-alive message to a communication apparatus (102). The communication apparatus (102) receives the keep-alive message from the communication apparatus (101), and a key information updating part (157) updates (for example, corrects), based on this keep-alive message, the data stored in a key information database part (154).

Abstract: An upper lid and a bottom lid are fastened to flange portions formed in outer side surfaces of a casing main body. A metal collar to which a screw serving as pressing means (a fastening member) is inserted is embedded in each flange portion. Both end portions of each of the metal collars protrude at a predetermined length toward the upper lid and the bottom lid from the flange portion. A predetermined interval corresponding to the length of the protruding portion of the metal collar is created between the casing main body and the upper lid and between the casing main body and the bottom lid, by bringing the upper lid and the bottom lid into contact with the protruding portions of each of the metal collars at a time of assembling.

Abstract: An upper lid forming an upper portion of a casing is formed by a metal (an aluminum alloy or the like) having a high heat radiation performance. The upper lid serves as a heat sink (a heat radiation member) radiating heat generated from electronic components within the casing to an external portion. A plurality of flat plate-shaped heat radiation fins are provided in an upper surface of the heat sink. A groove forming each of the heat radiation fins is open in a side surface of the heat sink without forming a step.

Abstract: A method for easily applying a coating agent to an electronic circuit board accommodated in a housing without leaving uncoated portions. The method includes mounting the electronic circuit board to the housing, performing an electrical connection process in the electronic circuit board, and filling the housing with the coating agent (anti-moisture agent) to immerse the electronic circuit board in the coating agent.

Abstract: A dynamically configurable network architecture comprising networked office appliances which provide network addressing, network naming, service discovery, and user identification in one system. The network architecture provides automatic configuration services for unadministered networks while being automatically adaptable within administered environments.

Abstract: In a data transmission apparatus and method of the present invention, a specific operator ID for an operator who uses a data processing device to process image data to be copied or transmitted, is selected. Specific owner IDs for owners who are authorized to access the image data, are selected. User identification data, inclusive of all operator IDs and owner IDs correlated to the data processing device, are stored in a storage device each time image data is captured by the data processing device. Allocation of the stored user identification data to each of the image data is managed by reading items of the user identification data from the storage device in response to the selections of the specific operator ID and the specific owner IDs and displaying the user identification data items.
