  • Patent number: 12459212
    Abstract: An electrofusion joint includes a tubular main body, a stopper portion, a first heat generation section, and a second heat generation section. The tubular main body includes a joint receiving portion. The stopper portion projects inwardly on an inner surface of the tubular main body. The first heat generation section includes a first heater wire wound and arranged at the joint receiving portion. The second heat generation section includes a second heater wire wound so that wound parts of the second heater wire are adjacent to each other and the second heater wire is in the stopper portion. The first heat generation section includes at least one heat generation portion in which the first heater wire is wound so that wound parts of the first heater wire are adjacent to each other.

  • Publication number: 20170032346
    Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to improve usability of an information processing device. Provided is an information processing device, includes a presence sensing unit, a manipulation sensing unit, a time measurement unit, and a notification unit. The presence sensing unit senses that a person is in the vicinity of the information processing device. The time measurement unit commences a time measurement at a prescribed timing after the presence sensing unit has sensed the presence of the person. The manipulation sensing unit senses that either a predetermined regular manipulation or irregular manipulation is executed as a first manipulation. The notification unit outputs notification information which issues a notification that a circumstance has arisen which requires confirmation, on the basis of whether there are notifications from the time measurement unit and the manipulation sensing unit.
