  • Publication number: 20160358714
    Abstract: In a laminated ceramic electronic component, a side-surface outer electrode includes a first electrode portion including side-surface electrode portions located on first and second side surfaces and wrap-around electrode portions arranged to extend around from the side-surface electrode portions of the first electrode portion to portions of third and fourth side surfaces; and a second electrode portion including side-surface electrode portions located on the third and fourth side surfaces and wrap-around electrode portions arranged to extend around from the side-surface electrode portions of the second electrode portion to portions of the first and second side surfaces. The wrap-around electrode portions of the second electrode portion reach regions covering portions of outermost inner electrodes located at an outermost side portion among inner electrodes, which portions are exposed in the first and second side surfaces.

  • Patent number: 9358825
    Abstract: In a gravure printing plate, a ratio of an area ratio of part of a second portion excluding second protrusions to the second portion, to an area ratio of a part of a portion excluding first protrusions to a portion that is part of a first portion that is located closer to the second portion than a line-shaped portion of a first protrusion located closest to the second portion ((an area ratio of the part of the second portion excluding the second protrusions to the second portion)/(an area ratio of the part of the portion excluding the first protrusions to the portion, the portion being a part of the first portion that is located closer to the second portion than the line-shaped portion of the first protrusion located closest to the second portion)) is about 0.3 or more and about 0.9 or less.

  • Publication number: 20090171562
    Abstract: A navigation system includes a map data acquisition means 11 for acquiring map data; a current position detection means 13 for detecting the current position of a mobile unit; an operation means 14 for inputting the destination thereof; a route search means 160 for searching a guide route from the place of departure to the destination inputted by the operation means based on the map data; and route guide means 18-21 for guiding a user while showing the current position on the found guide route, wherein the navigation system further includes route registration means 161, 162 for registering the move route of the mobile unit generated based on the trajectories in the past as learning data, and wherein the route search means, when the mobile unit is judged to have deviated from the guide route during the route guide, selects the learning data corresponding to the run conditions from the learning data registered in the route registration means and makes a guide route search again by applying the selected learning

  • Patent number: 6704369
    Abstract: A signal separation apparatus is capable of extracting original signals of two different systems with a high quality from received signals containing the original signals superposed each other in the course of transmission. In signal transmission from senders to receiver equipment, the signals to be sent separately are susceptible to mutual interference and superposition with given amplification factors in the course of transmission through respective transmission channels to such an extent that these signals can no more be discerned from each other by a receiver.

  • Patent number: 6591189
    Abstract: A mobile unit navigation system has a position detection unit 10 for a mobile unit, a map information acquisition unit 20, a destination input unit 30, a route search unit 40 for searching for a guide route from the current position to the destination, and an output unit 50 for displaying the found guide route as an image or guiding a user along the found guide route with voice. The unit 40 has a move route extraction unit for extracting a move route of the mobile unit based on a move path of the mobile unit provided by the detection unit 10 and the map information, a differential route registration unit for extracting a differential route different from the guide route from the extracted move route and registering the differential route, and a differential route application unit for applying the registered differential route to searching for the guide route.
