| 20080288103 | Numerical control method for five-axis processing machine - If the angle α formed between the interpolated cutting surface perpendicular direction vector (It, Jt, Kt) and the interpolated tool direction vector (Ttx, Tty, Ttz) becomes smaller, movement of a tool becomes unstable. In this case, the tool diameter compensation vector (TCx, TCy, TCz) is set to the tool diameter compensation vector calculated in the immediately previous interpolation cycle, thereby preventing unstable movement.

To deal with this problem, movement of linear axis control point in a current block is stopped or converted into linear movement so as to prevent a loop-shaped movement of the linear axis control point. | 11-20-2008 |

| 20090155567 | EXTRUDED PROPYLENE RESIN FOAM AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING EXTRUDED PROPYLENE RESIN FOAM - The extruded propylene-based resin foam according to the present invention is extruded propylene-based resin foam that is formed by extrusion-foaming a propylene-based resin, and the extruded propylene-based resin foam has the expansion ratio of 10 or more and the average cell diameter of less than 400 μm. In addition, the extruded foam contains a 60 or less wt % fibrous filler in relation to the whole molding material. With this configuration, the extruded foam can have a plurality of foam cell walls therein. Thus, the extruded foam can efficiently block external radiant heat, thereby realizing excellent insulation efficiency. Furthermore, because the fibrous filler is oriented along the thickness direction, even when the extruded foam is slightly strained in the thickness direction, a high stress arises, thereby improving energy-absorbing capability. | 06-18-2009 |

| 20120174989 | METHOD OF MEASURING CHARACTERISTICS OF CRITICAL ORIFICE TYPE CONSTANT FLOW RATE INSTRUMENT FOR USE IN MULTISTAGE DILUTION MECHANISM - A method of measuring characteristics of a critical orifice type constant flow rate instrument is applied to a dilution mechanism including dilution units in series. Diluent gas of one dilution unit and diluent gas of the other dilution unit are kept flowing in a derivation flow passage for deriving redundant gas of the corresponding one dilution unit in a manner that the total flow rate thereof is equal to a prescribed constant flow rate and that the flow rate of the diluent gas from the corresponding dilution unit is equal to the flow rate in use. The flow rate characteristics of the critical orifice type constant flow rate instrument are measured based on at least an upstream side pressure of the critical orifice type constant flow rate instrument provided in the derivation flow passage at this time. | 07-12-2012 |
