  • Publication number: 20240076152
    Abstract: An endless conveyer belt is stretched between drive and idle rollers. A carriage is arranged so as to reciprocate along the endless conveyer belt. A suction box is arranged between upper and lower belt portions of the endless conveyer belt and fixed to the carriage. A stopper plate is fixed to the carriage and extends across a conveyer surface and upward from the conveyer surface. A conveyance roller pair is arranged at the upstream end of the conveyer surface. A region of the conveyer surface from a stopper plate to the upstream end u forms a sheet accumulation area. A cover sheet covers a region upstream of the suction box in the sheet accumulation area. The cover sheet is subjected to tension in the longitudinal direction by a winding-type constant force plate spring and continually tensed spaced apart from the endless conveyer belt.

  • Patent number: 8787893
    Abstract: A wireless communication processing decision unit 33 acquires, from a wireless communication specific information storage unit 52, wireless communication specific information which specifies regions in which utilization of its frequency bandwidth is permitted by law. Next, registered position information which specifies the region in which this mobile communication terminal is position registered is acquired from a registered position information storage unit 34. Next, if the region specified by the registered position information is included in the regions shown by the wireless communication specific information, then the wireless communication processing decision unit 33 makes a decision to the effect that communication is possible, and notifies a communication processing unit 53 of this permission of communication. Upon receipt of this communication permission, the communication processing unit 53 starts communication processing.

  • Patent number: 8774796
    Abstract: The present invention provides a system using an international roaming-capable mobile communication network in which a server controls the form in which a service is provided in accordance with the country of a service area in which a mobile station is located. The mobile station 1 determines the service area in which the mobile station 1 is located in accordance with a mobile communication mode set by a mobile communication mode setting function. Alternatively, the mobile station 1 determines the service area in which it is located through notification information relating to a mobile communication network system, received from a base station. When the mobile station 1 transmits a request for a service to a content provider server 4, the mobile station 1 simultaneously adds a region header describing the determined service area. A gateway G/W63 may add the region header instead of the mobile station 1.

  • Patent number: 8746304
    Abstract: A pneumatic tire has two circumferential-direction main grooves (13) and lug grooves (15). The circumferential-direction main grooves are disposed outside quarter point sections of a tread contact width (TW) in a tread width direction, respectively, the two circumferential-direction main grooves extending in a tire circumferential direction, each of the quarter point sections of the tread contact width (TW) being a midpoint between a tire equator line and a corresponding tread end portion. The lug grooves are extended outwardly from the circumferential-direction main grooves in the tread width direction. Each quarter point section of the tread contact width (TW) has a rib-like shape continuously extending in the tire circumferential direction.

  • Publication number: 20110190036
    Abstract: A wireless communication processing decision unit 33 acquires, from a wireless communication specific information storage unit 52, wireless communication specific information which specifies regions in which utilization of its frequency bandwidth is permitted by law. Next, registered position information which specifies the region in which this mobile communication terminal is position registered is acquired from a registered position information storage unit 34. Next, if the region specified by the registered position information is included in the regions shown by the wireless communication specific information, then the wireless communication processing decision unit 33 makes a decision to the effect that communication is possible, and notifies a communication processing unit 53 of this permission of communication. Upon receipt of this communication permission, the communication processing unit 53 starts communication processing.
