Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090036776Apparatus for measuring inner diameter of tubular body of living being - An apparatus for measuring an inner diameter of a tubular body present under a skin of a living being, by emitting an ultrasonic wave from an ultrasonic probe placed on the skin, the apparatus including a reflection-signal detecting portion which detects a reflection signal that is reflected from the tubular body when the ultrasonic wave is emitted from the ultrasonic probe; and an inner-diameter calculating portion which calculates the inner diameter of the tubular body, based on an interval between two groups of reflection waves which are contained by the detected reflection signal and which are reflected from two diametrically opposed portions of a wall of the tubular body, respectively.02-05-2009

20110035028ACCELERATION/DECELERATION CONTROL DEVICE - A residual-velocity calculating unit calculates a residual velocity that corresponds to a velocity increment when an acceleration is reduced from a current command acceleration to zero according to an acceleration reduction curve. A differential-velocity calculating unit calculates a differential velocity vs=v0-vn, which is a difference between a target velocity v0 and a current velocity command for every command generation period. An acceleration-reduction-start-timing determining unit compares the residual velocity to the differential velocity for determining whether acceleration reduction starts. When a condition that the residual velocity is equal to or larger than the differential velocity is satisfied, the acceleration-reduction-start-timing determining unit determines the start of the acceleration reduction and starts to reduce the command acceleration according to the acceleration reduction curve generated by the command generating unit.02-10-2011

20080238347Motor Control Device - A motor control device includes at least one operating unit that is provided corresponding to at least one motor to operate the at least one motor, and a control unit that, each time at least one control cycle arrives in which the at least one motor is operated, sets a manipulated variable of the at least one motor to the at least one operating unit that operates the at least one motor of which the at least one control cycle arrives.10-02-2008
20080296836IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS AND METHOD OF FEEDING A SHEET - An image forming apparatus includes a tray, a sheet conveying path through which sheets are conveyed, a sheet feeding unit including a sheet feed roller for feeding a first sheet to a sheet holding position, a sheet conveying unit having a conveyor roller that intermittently rotates and holds the sheets. The sheet conveying unit is upstream from a recording position, and downstream from the sheet feeding unit. The image forming apparatus also includes a recording unit, and a controller. The recording unit forms an image onto the first sheet while the conveyor roller is not rotating. The sheet feeding unit feeds a leading edge of a second sheet to the sheet conveying unit and maintains the leading edge of the second sheet colliding against the sheet conveying unit at the sheet holding position by rotating the sheet feed roller prior to completing image formation on the first sheet.12-04-2008

20080240138Tree type broadcast system, connection target determination method, connection management device, connection management process program, and the like - A connection management device for managing connection mode between node devices in a tree type broadcast system formed by participation of all or a part of a plurality of node devices included in a distributed content storing system where a plurality of content data are distributed and stored in the plurality of node devices and each of the plurality of node devices provides content data stored in the own node through a network in response to a request from the other node devices, to thereby sequentially transfer the content data broadcasted by the broadcasting device from the node devices on upper hierarchies to the node devices on lower hierarchies, the connection management device including: 10-02-2008
20080291848Information distribution system, terminal apparatus used in same system and recording medium on which is recorded a program, as well as information processing method - To provide an information distribution system which forms a tree-shaped hierarchical structure and distributes contents information, and in which it is possible for a connection destination of a terminal apparatus newly participating in a hierarchical structure of a distribution channel to be selected by a user of the terminal apparatus. A terminal apparatus, when participating in a hierarchical structure of a certain distribution channel, acquires information on the hierarchical structure, and displays participation statuses in the hierarchical structure of a plurality of terminal apparatus configuring the hierarchical structure in a predetermined topology information display area 11-27-2008
20090180493Content distribution system, content distribution method, terminal apparatus in content distribution system, and recording medium on which program is recorded - To provide a content distribution system, method, and the like wherein, in a distribution aspect in which, being made a tree-shaped hierarchical structure, content data are forwarded from a content distribution apparatus at an apex to a downstream terminal apparatus, there is no need to separately provide a connection management server for managing the tree-shaped hierarchical structure. In a content distribution system in which a content distribution apparatus and a plurality of terminal apparatus participate, when configuring a distribution aspect in which the terminal apparatus are logically connected in a tree-shaped hierarchical structure, with the content distribution apparatus as an apex, and content data are sequentially forwarded from the content distribution apparatus to a downstream terminal apparatus, one terminal apparatus among the plurality of terminal apparatus participating in the content distribution system is caused to manage a connection condition of the tree-shaped hierarchical structure.07-16-2009
20100250654Contents distributed storage system, web page creating method, server device, and computer-readable recording medium in which server processing program is recorded - A server device which can communicate with a node device in a contents distributed storage system stores contents attribute information obtained from a predetermined device which stores the contents attribute information, and creates a Web page in which the contents attribute information is inserted. A node device receive a page request of a Web page from any of node devices, and transmits the created Web page, to a node device which has transmitted the page request, in accordance with the page request.09-30-2010
