  • Publication number: 20240089712
    Abstract: An object is to provide a data collection device and the like capable of reducing a load on an IoT terminal in metadata transmission and power consumption associated with the metadata transmission. In the present invention, a controller is provided on a data collection side that collects metadata, the metadata transmitted from an IoT terminal is grasped, and the IoT terminal is instructed to reduce the transmission frequency of metadata that does not need high real-time property according to a sensor, the type of the IoT terminal, or the like. The IoT terminal transmits the metadata only at a window time (transmission timing, data size, metadata type, or the like) permitted by the metadata controller. As a result, the IoT terminal transmits the metadata only at a limited timing, and thus can reduce a transmission load and power consumption.

  • Publication number: 20190009321
    Abstract: The invention provides manufacturing a press formed product with high corrosion resistance and different tensile strengths depending on regions by a small number of processes. The whole of a steel plate having an aluminum-based plating film is heated to an austenite range temperature by a furnace, so that the body of the steel plate is transformed into austenite and a Fe—Al alloy layer is formed on the surface of the steel plate. The steel plate formed with the Fe—Al alloy layer is taken out from the furnace, a first region of the steel plate is heat-retained by a heat resistant and retaining member, and a second region of the steel plate is cooled naturally. When the temperature of the second region becomes lower than a ferrite transformation start temperature, hot press forming is performed to the steel plate to form a press formed product.
