Abstract: An information processing apparatus disclosed has a controller configured to execute the processing of accepting a request for retrieving a target vehicle body unit that is laid at a specific place, selecting a chassis unit for retrieval from among chassis units in the state separated from any vehicle body unit, the chassis unit for retrieval being a chassis unit to be used to retrieve the target vehicle body unit, and sending a retrieval command to the chassis unit for retrieval, the retrieval command being a command to retrieve the target vehicle body unit.

Abstract: A vehicle-mounted sensor cleaning device cleans a sensing surface of a vehicle-mounted sensor. The vehicle-mounted sensor cleaning device includes a gas nozzle spraying a gas toward the sensing surface, a gas supply device supplying the gas to the gas nozzle, and a control section controlling operation of the gas supply device. A predetermined value is set in the control section, for indicating an abnormal state of detection accuracy of the vehicle-mounted sensor based on detection accuracy information of an object which is obtained from the vehicle-mounted sensor. A gas supply threshold value is also set, for use in operating the gas supply device to direct a supply of the gas toward the sensing surface before the detection accuracy information becomes equal to or lower than the predetermined value. If the detection accuracy information has become lower than the gas supply threshold value, the control section operates the gas supply device.

Abstract: A non-volatile memory includes a plurality of word lines connected to non-volatile memory cells, a plurality of driver lines configured to carry one or more word line voltages, and a plurality of word line switches that selectively connect the driver lines to the word lines. To more efficiently utilize space on the die, the word line switches are arranged in a plurality of three dimensional stacks such that each stack of the plurality of stacks comprises multiple word line switches vertically stacked.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided that includes an integrated circuit die that includes an uppermost metal layer of an integrated circuit fabrication process, a plurality of first bonding pads disposed on the uppermost metal layer at a first bonding pad pitch, a first additional metal layer disposed above the uppermost metal layer, and a plurality of second bonding pads disposed on the first additional metal layer at a second bonding pad pitch greater than the first bonding pad pitch. The apparatus further includes a plurality of conductors each electrically coupling a unique one of the first bonding pads to a corresponding one of the second bonding pads.

Abstract: To provide a flame-retardant resin composition that has superior adhesion subsequent to curing and molding when used as a printed wiring board adhesive and that provides superior printed wiring board electrical characteristics; and a flexible printed wiring board metal-clad laminate, a coverlay, a flexible printed wiring board adhesive sheet, and a flexible printed wiring board employing this resin composition. (SOLUTION) The flame-retardant resin composition comprises a thermosetting resin, a hardener, and a phosphorus-containing polymer.

Abstract: A fan system having a three-phase claw-pole motor comprising a stator and a rotor, wherein the three-phase claw-pole motor provides with stator coils for three phases which are arranged on one plane.

Abstract: A slider base has a slider lock combined therewith so as to be selectively and laterally displaced between a locked position and an unlocked position. The mount has a passage formed therein so as to receive a leg portion of the slider lock, the passage including a locking shoulder formed between an upper compartment and a lower compartment so as to face downward. When the slider is set in the locked position, the leg portion of the slider lock is located under the locking shoulder, and when the slider is set in the unlocked position, the leg portion of the slider lock is located so as to be capable of being inserted into the upper compartment by depressing the mount toward a lower position against an urging force of an urging device.

Abstract: An air cleaner includes a housing having an upper wall and side walls, an air filter mounted with respect to the housing, a fan including a vane-wheel having a plurality of vanes, a supporting plate extending substantially between at least two side walls for supporting the fan. An air flow directional member directs an air flow output from the fan. The vane is formed to have a winglike cross-section, and the vane-wheel includes not more than four vanes. The vane-wheel has a base plate and a shroud. Each of the base plate and the shroud is formed to have a reinforcement portion on its circumference. A U-shaped balance weight is attached to a flattened portion formed on the curled portion. The air cleaner of the present invention can reduce noise and vibration and improve efficiency of the fan.

Abstract: An air cleaner of the present invention includes a housing having an upper wall and side walls, a fan, a supporting plate extending between the two side walls for supporting the fan, a first air flow directional member extending between the supporting plate and the upper wall, and a second air flow directional member provided at a horizontal periphery of the housing. The first air flow directional member not only provides reinforcement to the supporting plate and the upper wall, but also directs an air flow output from the fan. The second air flow directional member has a horizontal plate and vertical plates for directing air flow at the horizontal periphery of the housing. The first air flow directional member and the second air flow directional member are adapted to equalize a velocity of an air flow distributed across an air flow output area of the fan unit.
