  • Publication number: 20180054633
    Abstract: A video decoding device is a video decoding device that decodes a stream constituted by a data sequence including header information and compressed image data. The video decoding device includes a storage and a decoding processor. The storage holds the header information and the compressed image data in the stream. The decoding processor analyzes the header information and decodes the compressed image data. When it is determined that an error has occurred during decoding processing of the compressed image data based on an analysis result of the header information, the decoding processor analyzes information necessary for decoding compressed image data included in the compressed image data in a subsequent stream and decodes the compressed image data.

  • Publication number: 20180054643
    Abstract: In a digital broadcast reception device, a first received signal processor receives a first channel and outputs a first channel signal. The second received signal processor receives a second channel and generates a second channel signal. In a period while the first received signal processor is outputting the first channel signal, the controller selects the second channel based on pieces of information regarding services provided by respective channels, the pieces of information being individually included in the first channel signal and the second channel signal. The controller switches a signal to be outputted from either one signal of the first channel signal and the second channel signal to other one of the first channel signal and the second channel signal based on individual receiving states of the first channel and the second channel.

  • Patent number: 6752306
    Abstract: A pinch roller apparatus which can stably move a tape in accordance with a sufficient self-aligning function is provided. A circular sliding plate brought into contact with both of an upper end surface and a lower end surface of a plain bearing is mounted to a pinch roller shaft so as to restrict an incline of the plain bearing. When setting a length of an axial gap between the circular sliding plate brought into contact with the upper end surface of the plain bearing and the plain bearing to A and a length of an outer diameter of the circular sliding plate to B, the structure is made such as to satisfy a relation 0.007≦A/B≦0.06. Further, when setting a clearance in a diametrical direction between the pinch roller shaft and the sliding surface of the plain bearing to X and an effective length of the sliding surface of the plain bearing to Y, it is preferable to structure so as to satisfy the relation X/Y≧0.052.

  • Patent number: 6079463
    Abstract: A pneumatic radial tire comprises a breaker-belt disposed radially outside a carcass, and a band-belt disposed radially outside the breaker-belt and having organic fiber cords laid in substantially parallel with the tire equator. In the meridian section of the tire which is mounted on a standard rim and inflated to 0.5% of a standard inner pressure, the tread has a triple radius profile and the band-belt having a variable ply number accommodated to the triple radii of the tread such that the number of plies throughout more than sixty percent (60%) of the axial width of the parts of the tread having the first, second and third radii of curvature, respectively, are different from each other. The tread profile is composed of a central part of a radius R1, a pair of middle parts of a radius R2, and a pair of shoulder parts of a radius R3. For example, the ply number N1 in the central part is 0, the ply number N2 in the middle parts is 1, and the ply number N3 in the shoulder parts is 2.

  • Patent number: 5658512
    Abstract: A method for producing a bladder includes shaping a mass of crude rubber containing an oil component into a specified bladder shape by a mold; vulcanizing the shaped bladder in the mold; removing the vulcanized bladder from the mold; placing the vulcanized bladder in an environment having a high temperature to keep the vulcanized bladder in the high temperature for a specified time to remove the oil component from the vulcanized bladder; and coating an outer surface of the oil component-removed bladder with a separating agent layer.
