20080214031 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR - An electrical connector includes a plurality of contacts to be connected to a cable, a housing for arranging and holding the contacts, a shell dividable into two shells covering the housing and having a holding device for holding the cable, and an insulating member covering the shell. One of the shells is provided with anchoring portions and the other shell is provided with engaging portions so that when both the shells are fitted with each other, the anchoring portions and the engaging portions are engaged with each other to bring both the shells into electrical continuity with each other. Therefore, the shells can be securely held together to achieve reliable electrical continuity between the shells, and at the same time grounding between the cable and the shell and between the shells themselves can be achieved. | 09-04-2008 |
20080214050 | ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR - An electrical connector to be detachably fitted with a mating connector, including a plurality of contacts, a housing for arranging and holding the contacts, and a shell covering the housing and forming with the housing a fitting opening for the mating connector. The shell has at least one engaging piece, and the housing has an anchoring portion at a location corresponding to the engaging piece to cause the anchoring portion to engage the engaging piece, thereby restraining the housing from being displaced in the direction opposite to the fitting direction upon fitting with the mating connector. Even being miniaturized, the electrical connector is securely positioned relative to the mating connector when fitting with it, and the housing is securely prevented from being displaced upon the mating connector abutting against the housing, thereby completely preventing any defective connection. | 09-04-2008 |
20090132074 | AUTOMATIC SEGMENT EXTRACTION SYSTEM FOR EXTRACTING SEGMENT IN MUSIC PIECE, AUTOMATIC SEGMENT EXTRACTION METHOD, AND AUTOMATIC SEGMENT EXTRACTION PROGRAM - A segment automatic extracting system provides applications with an impressive segment of a musical composition as metadata on the composition by extracting a portion of the composition likely to be widely known by general users irrespective of the number of appearances in the composition. Associated method and program are also described. A first acoustic signature (AS) creating section creates an AS representing the feature value of the acoustic signal of each of contents. An important segment extracting section creates an acoustic segment signature representing the frequently appearing feature value from searching all created ASs. A second AS creating section creates an AS from the composition signal. A common segment extracting section judges whether each acoustic segment signature agrees with a part of the AS of the composition signal and outputs time information by which the AS of the musical signal agreeing with the AS can be specified. | 05-21-2009 |
20090297038 | Image Direction Judging Device, Image Direction Judging Method and Image Direction Judging Program - Up and down directions of an image are to be precisely judged without a special equipment installed in an image pickup device. An object candidate detecting means detects object candidates from an input image and their angles in the input image. A similarity calculation means calculate the degree of similarity between each detected object candidate and each object stored in advance. An input image angle calculating means judges up and down directions of the input image based on the calculated similarity of each object candidate and the angle of the input image. The input image angle calculating means carries out weighting for the angle of each object candidate in the input image based on its similarity and calculates slant angles with respect to the up and down directions of the input image by using the weighted angles. | 12-03-2009 |
