Patent number: 9319538Abstract: A first image forming apparatus detects a malfunction generated in a functional unit thereof and determines a functional mode that cannot be executed. The first image forming apparatus transmits the functional mode that cannot be executed to a management apparatus. When obtaining the functional mode that cannot be executed, the management apparatus updates a functional mode table. The management apparatus increases a priority of the first image forming apparatus for a functional mode that the first image forming apparatus can execute. Along with this, the management apparatus decreases a priority of a second image forming apparatus that normally operates for the functional mode that the first image forming apparatus can execute. When receiving a job, the management apparatus refers to the updated functional mode table to allocate the job to one of the image forming apparatuses.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2011Date of Patent: April 19, 2016Assignee: SHARP KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Yoshio Fukuda

Patent number: 8224062Abstract: An individually isolated wafer adapted to a semiconductor chip is subjected to inspection in which an infrared ray is irradiated onto the backside of the wafer whose surface is sealed with a resin layer such that the optical axis thereof perpendicularly or slantingly crosses the surface of the wafer, whereby an image clearly showing cracks formed in the wafer is produced based on the reflected ray. Before or after an exterior inspection process, a tape inspection process is performed by use of an image of the surface of a dicing tape, in which a plurality of semiconductor chips are once attached onto and then separated from, so as to detect at least one of a defective element, a crack mark, and a foreign mark with regard to the semiconductor chip subjected to inspection.Type: GrantFiled: August 10, 2007Date of Patent: July 17, 2012Assignee: Yamaha CorporationInventors: Yoshihiro Ohkura, Yoshio Fukuda

Publication number: 20110222088Abstract: A control portion includes a CPU and a ROM. The ROM includes a first memory area, a second memory area, and a third memory area. The first memory area stores the correspondence of a user's input operation at a touch panel to a first type of information on image forming processing. The second memory area stores the correspondence of a detection result output from a sensor to the first type of information. The third memory area stores the correspondence of a detection result output from the sensor to a second type of information on the image forming processing. If the touch panel is not faulty, the CPU performs the image forming processing based on the contents of the first and third memory areas. If the touch panel is faulty, the CPU performs the image forming processing based on the contents of the second and third memory areas.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 9, 2011Publication date: September 15, 2011Inventor: Yoshio FUKUDA

Patent number: 7790506Abstract: A semiconductor device having a rectangular exterior appearance includes a substrate for arranging an integrated circuit on the surface thereof, at least one rewire electrically connected to the integrated circuit via at least one pad electrode, at least one electrode terminal formed on the rewire, and a resin layer for completely sealing the substrate including the rewire such that the electrode terminal be exposed to the exterior. Slopes are formed at the corners between the backside and the side faces of the resin layer; and other slopes are further formed at the corners between the surface and the side faces of the resin layer. Thus, it is possible to reliably prevent the semiconductor device sealed with the resin layer from chipping or peeling irrespective of an impact occurring at the corners of the resin layer.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2007Date of Patent: September 7, 2010Assignee: Yamaha CorporationInventor: Yoshio Fukuda

Publication number: 20090073507Abstract: It is intended to perform area specification to carry out arbitrary image processing by an easy operation without spoiling a document. An document reading apparatus includes a heater for heating the document in a document transport path in the upstream side of a document reading portion. By comparing image data read by the image reading portion without performing heating by the heater and image data read by the image reading portion after performing the heating by the heater, drawn image data drawn by a coloring material which gets denatured and decolorizes when heated is extracted. Then, a specified area surrounded by the extracted drawn image data is determined and specific image processing based on an operation input by a user is applied to image data in the specified area.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 28, 2008Publication date: March 19, 2009Applicant: Sharp Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Yoshio Fukuda
