  • Publication number: 20240275733
    Abstract: A communication system includes a cloud server, and a communication control apparatus to be connected to the cloud server and a device through a wide area network and a local area network. The communication control apparatus transmits a device message generated by the device to the cloud server. The communication control apparatus includes a message acquirer that acquires the device message from the device, a determiner that determines whether the device message satisfies a non-transmission condition, and a transmission controller that controls transmission of the device message to the cloud server. The transmission controller discards the device message to avoid transmission of the device message to the cloud server when the device message is determined to satisfy the non-transmission condition.

  • Patent number: 10408261
    Abstract: A linear motion guide unit restrains fluctuations in sliding friction and generation of heat by correcting the postures of rollers having been inclined in a no-load area such that their axes become orthogonal to a guide surface of a carriage to thereby introduce the rollers in proper postures into a load area. A retainer plate of the guide unit has a guide surface for guiding end surfaces of the rollers and has protrusions protruding from the guide surface at its opposite end portions facing crownings of the carriage. The rollers rolling from a turnaround passage to a load-carrying race are pressed by the protrusions toward the guide surface of the carriage so as to be arrayed in such a posture that the axes of the rollers become orthogonal to the guide surface on the inlet side of the crowning of the carriage, whereby the occurrence of roller skew is prevented.

  • Patent number: 10378581
    Abstract: In the linear motion guide unit, a retainer plate for retaining rolling elements, or rollers, is prevented from deformation so as to smoothly guide the rollers. The retainer plate is composed of a retainer member, frame members fitted into respective through holes formed in the retainer member, and a fixing member disposed in a longitudinally extending recess of the retainer member. The frame members form a predetermined gap between the fixing member and a carriage. Tightening forces of fastening bolts are not applied to the retainer member, thereby avoiding deformation of the retainer member.
