The hinge device comprises: a shaft member which is mounted on a refrigerator main body and comprises a hinge pin; a bearing member which is mounted on a door and comprises a long hole which is in contact with the hinge pin to be relatively movable or relatively rotatable with respect to the hinge pin; and a cam which is installed on the hinge pin and constitutes a cam unit by contacting a cam follower of the bearing member.

Abstract: Movement amount identifying unit 111 of exemplary game device 1 identifies, for each of characters, a movement amount, based on which a character is moved on a map, the movement amount being randomly determined. Movement processing unit 112 moves, for each of the characters, a character on the map based on a movement amount determined for the character. Mini-game executing unit 113 executes a mini-game on detecting that a first character included in the characters has reached a predetermined first cell on the map. When doing so, mini-game executing unit 113 starts the mini-game, the first character joining the mini-game from the start of the mini-game, and causes a second character included in the characters to join the mini-game subsequent to the first character with a delay, the second character having failed to reach the first cell as of the start of the mini-game.

Abstract: A network management device retains path information of paths as a list of node identifying information to identify nodes, the path information including information on paths sharing a link regarding a relation in which one path shares a link with another path. According to the information on paths sharing a link, the network management device determines a path setup timing for a path to be the same for a group of one or more paths that do not share a same link with the path and determines a different path setup timing for a group of one or more paths that share a same link with the path than the timing for the group including the path, and executes path setup via communication devices existing on paths constituting each group of paths as per path setup timing determined for each group.

Abstract: A network management server stores, in terms of a transmission path within the network, each occurrence pattern of a failure occurrence area in which a failure has occurred in a communication apparatus through which the transmission path passes. Information for identifying a recovery plane serving as a set of recovery paths corresponding to each occurrence pattern and information for identifying the communication apparatus through which each of the recovery paths passes is also stored. When a failure occurs in any one of the plurality of areas, whether or not the failure corresponds to any one of the failure occurrence patterns, the information for identifying the recovery plane corresponding to the identified failure occurrence patterns is acquired; and the communication apparatus through which each of the recovery paths included in the recovery plane passes is notified of the information for identifying the recovery plane acquired.

Abstract: An optical element includes a waveguide and a deflector. The waveguide propagates light incident at a predetermined angle while reflecting the light between the first plane and the second plane. The deflector is formed as a plate having a third plane being opposed to the first plane in the deflector, the first plane and the third plane are spaced apart from each other at a distance smaller than a propagation distance capable of propagating an evanescent wave of first light. The deflector has a plurality of reflecting surfaces arranged on the rear side of the third plane. The reflecting surfaces reflect the first light that has been incident on the first plane to be propagated as an evanescent wave, into a direction substantially perpendicular to the first plane. A medium interposed between the first plane and the third plane has a refractive index lower than that of the waveguide.

Abstract: A transfer apparatus is configured to: calculate a total cost of a first route in a first network that starts from a source transfer apparatus and ends at a destination transfer apparatus; obtain a particular cost being a cost between the source transfer apparatus and a first line, which couples the source transfer apparatus and its own transfer apparatus, in a second route, which starts from the source transfer apparatus and reaches the destination transfer apparatus via its own transfer apparatus; calculate a differential between the total cost and the particular cost; set, based on the differential, a cost between its own transfer apparatus and a second line, which couples its own transfer apparatus and the destination transfer apparatus, to a value that causes the source transfer apparatus to select the second route rather than the first route; and notify the cost value to the source transfer apparatus.
