Abstract: An automatic analyzer is provided that is capable of quickly responding when an abnormal process occurs, accurately grasping an abnormal state, and reducing frequencies of early abnormality diagnosis and component adjustment or replacement of the automatic analyzer. The automatic analyzer compares data output information with reference data output information, applies a data alarm to an item of the data output information determined to be in an abnormal state, compares system output information with reference system output information, applies a data alarm to an item of a data output information determined to be in an abnormal state, and executes a predictive diagnosis of a failure state of the automatic analyzer based on a temporal change of the data output information obtained by the analyzer using an internal standard substance as a sample and a temporal change of the system output information.

Abstract: A method of producing high-frequency modules at a higher efficiency is provided comprising: an electronic components mounting step 62 of fabricating on a master substrate 21 rows of sub substrates 22, each the sub substrate 22 having an identical pattern of circuit developed thereon, and mounting electronic components on the sub substrate 22; a step 64 of, after the step 62, providing slits for electrically isolating signal terminals formed integrally; a laser trimming step 66 of, after the step 64, engaging pins 39 of an inspection tooling in direct contact with the signal terminals to conduct an inspection; and a separating step 72 of, after the step 66, separating the sub substrates 22 from the master substrate 21. Accordingly, the productivity for the high-frequency modules will be improved.

Abstract: A powder pressing apparatus includes a powder feeding apparatus for supply of a powder such as a rare-earth alloy powder into a cavity of a tooling. The powder feeding apparatus includes a feeder box having a bottom face provided with an opening. Inside the feeder box, there are provided a hopper for supply of the powder into the cavity, a feeder for supply of the powder to the hopper, and a vibration generator for vibration of the hopper. Surfaces of the feeder and hopper to contact the powder are mirror-polished. Leg portions are provided in two sides of the bottom face parallel to a moving direction of the feeder box. The leg portions make the bottom face of the feeder box spaced from an opening of the cavity. The powder supplied to the powder feeding apparatus is weighed by a weighing unit. The opening of the feeder box is provided with a linear member arranged in a grid pattern having a regular pitch. The linear member is rotationally shaken in a horizontal plane when the powder is fed into the cavity.

Abstract: A magnetic powder feeding method for feeding magnetic powder into a cavity of a pressing apparatus includes the steps of: providing magnetic powder outside of the cavity; forming a magnetic field in a space including the cavity; and moving the magnetic powder into the cavity using a force exerted on the magnetic powder by the magnetic field, while the magnetic powder is oriented in a direction of the magnetic field. In the method, the step of moving of the magnetic powder into the inside of the cavity is performed after the start of the application of the magnetic field.

Abstract: Viewpoint settings (e.g., viewpoint change pattern, viewpoint position, line-of-sight, angle of view, spring constant or viewpoint control program) are provided for moving bodies. From these viewpoint settings, a viewpoint setting linked to the moving body selected by a player is selected. The selected viewpoint setting is then used to control the viewpoint. For example, when a player selects one of motor vehicles of types 1, 2 and 3, the viewpoint is changed according to one of viewpoint change patterns that include viewpoint groups (1-A, 1-B), (2-A, 2-B) and (3-A, 3-B), depending au the selected type of the motor vehicle. The height of the viewpoint may be changed in proportion to the height of the moving body. The distance between th viewpoint and the moving body may be changed in proportion to the length of the moving body. The viewpoint may be located in the right front of a motor vehicle with a right-hand steering wheel, and in the left front of a motor vehicle with a left-hand steering wheel.
