Patent number: 8011834Abstract: An optical connector plug includes an approximately square cylindrical rear cover of an insulating member fitted over an outer surface of a stop ring, and a cylindrical front cover which is urged frontward by an elastic member and is slidable back and forth at an outer surface of a plug frame. The front cover has a flexible plate-like shutter on an inner wall, which blocks the tip of a ferrule. The shutter has an upright curved portion formed by curving a tip side in an arc shape. When the front cover moves backward, the curved portion of the shutter is pressed against a tip of the plug frame to become flat and is pressed against the inner wall of the front cover to be retained in a plate form, thereby releasing a light-shielding state of the optical fiber.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2008Date of Patent: September 6, 2011Assignee: Honda Tsushin Kogyo Co., Ltd.Inventors: Toshiaki Nakano, Tsuyoshi Yoshizaki

Patent number: 7290010Abstract: A retrieval site (S1) comprises a retrieval server (S1a), a retrieval database (S1b) and a registered fast-food shop database (S1c). Based on a designation entry of a merchandise genre and a destination from an information terminal (T) having connected with the retrieve site (S1), the retrieval server (S1a) retrieves fast-food shops (F), having a service providing area including the designated destination, from the retrieval database (S1b), and displays the retrieved list of the corresponding shops on the information terminal. After a fast-food shop (F) is selected from the list, the retrieval server (S1a) retrieves data of an order form (D) from the registered fast-food shop database (S1c), and displays it on the information terminal. When an order is made based on the order form (D), the order contents are sent to the selected shop.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2001Date of Patent: October 30, 2007Assignees: Pioneer Corporation, Increment P CorporationInventors: Toshiaki Nakano, Takuya Masamura

Patent number: 6915207Abstract: A position of a vehicle is detected by receiving a position detection signal transmitted from the travelling vehicle. It is sensed whether or not the vehicle passes a starting node of a required link on a road network, and when the vehicle passes the starting node, the passing time is stored. Then, it is also sensed whether or not the vehicle passes an end node of the required link on the road network, and when the vehicle passes the end node, the passing time is stored. Then, a travel time for the link is calculated from the passing times of passing the respective starting and end nodes of the link.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2001Date of Patent: July 5, 2005Assignee: Pioneer CorporationInventor: Toshiaki Nakano
