  • Patent number: 9586297
    Abstract: A vehicle body component mounting system is provided with, along a conveyance path for a vehicle body, an upstream component mounting work area using a cell production system, a central component mounting work area in which the vehicle body is conveyed by an overhead conveyor, and a downstream component mounting work area using the cell production system in this order. Components other than principal components are mounted to the vehicle body using the cell production system. The cell production system is adaptable by increasing the number of component boxes, and thus an increase in the length of the line is prevented. The increase in the length of the line is prevented by using a line production system as a base and also using the cell production system as a part thereof.

  • Patent number: 4037211
    Abstract: An address extending control circuit is disclosed which is provided with a memory having a memory capacity larger than that assignable with the content of an address register. The memory area of the memory is divided into a common block and a plurality of segment blocks of variable capacity. In a certain processing, the common block and any one of the segment blocks are utilized in pairs, thereby to obtain an extended address. To this end, an address extending address register capable of selecting a predetermined segment block of the memory is provided in addition to the address register. When the value in the address register is detected to be larger than a predetermined value, the content of the address extending address register corresponding thereto is appended to the content of the address register to increase the number of bits and a combination of the common block with one segment block of the memory is selected, with which an address in the selected segment block is accessed.
