Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090111629TENSIONER LEVER FOR CHAIN DRIVE - In a spring-loaded tensioner lever having a coiled torsion spring accommodated in a space inside the lever, a stopper mechanism, comprising a pin held removably in a hole in the lever, holds an arm of the torsion spring against movement in the unwinding direction while the lever, or the chain, is being mounted on a mounting surface. The pin and a bent end of the arm of the spring fit into holes in the mounting surface positioned so that a pivot shaft-receiving hole of the lever is automatically aligned with a shaft-mounting hole in the mounting surface.04-30-2009
20110105258CHAIN GUIDE MECHANISM - In a chain guide mechanism, fixed and movable guides are attached to a guide bridge by cooperation of bosses on the guides with boss-receiving holes formed in spaced-apart elements of arms of the bridge. A fixed guide is held against rotation by cooperation of a projection on its mounting boss with a notch in a boss-receiving hole in a guide bridge arm element. A base, extending from an intermediate location at which the arms come together has a pressing structure that engages bosses on a driving sprocket, and a groove for receiving teeth of the driving sprocket.05-05-2011

20100171918LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY DEVICE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF - In a miniaturized liquid crystal display device, a thickness of the liquid crystal display device is decreased and the occurrence of cracks is prevented. A portion of a TFT substrate to which a lower polarizer is adhered has a small thickness, and a periphery of the TFT substrate including a terminal portion has a large thickness. A portion of a counter substrate to which an upper polarizer is adhered has a small thickness, and a periphery of the counter substrate except for one side which forms a U shape has a large thickness. Accordingly, in adhering the upper polarizer to the counter substrate, it is possible to decrease a possibility that a foreign material is entangled. By applying chemical polishing to edge portions of the TFT substrate and edge portions of the counter substrate, the edge portions are rounded and hence, the probability of occurrence of cracks caused by an impact or the like from the outside can be decreased.07-08-2010

20090245627CHARACTER RECOGNITION DEVICE - The present invention firstly roughly classifies an analysis range specified by the operator in the color image data of a form into background, a character frame and a character, precisely specifies a character frame on the basis of the classification result, eliminates the character from the color image data from which the background is eliminated and recognizes the remaining character.10-01-2009
20100008578FORM RECOGNITION APPARATUS, METHOD, DATABASE GENERATION APPARATUS, METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - One system to which the present invention is applied obtains the digitized form image of a form, recognizes a character string existing in the obtained form image, extracts a headline wording being a predetermined character string from the recognized character strings, determines a table structure existing in the form image, on the basis of the extracted headline wording and the arrangement of headline wordings in the form image and specifies a correspondence relationship between a headline wording and a character string other than the headline wording that is recognized, using the determination result.01-14-2010

20110145579PASSWORD AUTHENTICATION METHOD - There is provided an authentication method which is secure against various attacks such as a KCI attack on a public network, and can reduce a required calculation amount compared to a conventional method. In this authentication method, a mutual authentication processing technique using Diffie-Hellman type key exchange is modified to compute a master secret Ks in a server by Ks=g06-16-2011

20080228808SYSTEM FOR DEPLOYING DATA FROM DEPLOYMENT-SOURCE DEVICE TO DEPLOYMENT-DESTINATION DEVICE - An identifier generation unit generates first identifiers corresponding to a plurality of first fragmentary data, into which first data that is stored in a database is divided. A database stores the first data and the first identifiers. The identifier generation unit generates, when the first data is updated to second data, second identifiers corresponding to a plurality of second fragmentary data into which the second data is divided. A deployment control unit determines whether the first identifiers are identical to the second identifiers which correspond to the first identifiers. The deployment control unit writes in the database the second fragmentary data corresponding to the second identifiers and the second identifiers when it is determined that the first identifiers are not identical to the second identifiers which correspond to the first identifiers.09-18-2008
20090154476OVERLAY NETWORK SYSTEM WHICH CONSTRUCTS AND MAINTAINS AN OVERLAY NETWORK - An overlay network system comprises an overlay network composed of a plurality of nodes and a plurality of sub-overlay networks each of which is composed of a subset of the plurality of nodes and which are hierarchized. The overlay network is managed as a 0th-level sub-overlay network at the highest hierarchical level. Each of the plurality of sub-overlay networks is allocated a sub-overlay network ID whose number of bits corresponds to the hierarchical level of the network. The high-order one or more bits in the sub-overlay network ID also indicate the sub-overlay network ID of a sub-overlay network at the high hierarchical level corresponding to the number of the one or more bits.06-18-2009

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090024795METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CACHING DATA - A relay unit inputs data and an index. A cache management unit determines whether or not a space area to cache data exists. In the case where there is a space area, the cache management unit caches data. An identifier generating unit generates an identifier corresponding to contents of the cached data. The identifier is registered in a cache data table in association with the data. The identifier is registered in a cache index table in association with the index. In the case where there is no space area, the cache management unit secures a space area. The cache management unit unregisters an identifier associated with the data which was cached in the secured area.01-22-2009

20090220500AGENTS FOR TREATING CARDIOPATHY - The present inventors investigated the effects of anti-IL-6 receptor antibodies on improving the condition of infarcted areas in myocardial infarction, and on suppressing left ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction. As a result, the administration of anti-IL-6 receptor antibodies significantly suppressed the increase of MPO activity in the infarcted area and suppressed myocardial MCP-1 expression in both the infarcted area and the non-infarcted area. Furthermore, echocardiography and histological examinations revealed that cardiac hypertrophy is also suppressed.09-03-2009
