| 20110082665 | STICK-SLIP DETECTING DEVICE AND DETECTING METHOD - A diagnosing operation controlling portion compares the magnitude of change of a control instruction value that controls the dislocation of a valve stem to a reference value that has been set in advance, and stops the malfunction evaluation operation in a diagnosing portion if the magnitude of change per unit time in the control instruction value exceeds a reference value. If the magnitude of change per unit time in the control instruction value exceeds the reference value, then the evaluation may be the same as for a case wherein a stick-slip has occurred, even if the operation is functioning properly. In contrast, it is possible to prevent incorrect stick-slip evaluations by stopping the operation of the diagnosing portion when the magnitude of change per unit time in the control instruction value exceeds a reference value. | 04-07-2011 |
| 20110146415 | PRESSURE GUIDING TUBE BLOCKAGE DIAGNOSING DEVICE AND BLOCKAGE DIAGNOSING METHOD - A differential pressure transmitting device detects, through two pressure guiding tubes, a differential pressure that is generated when that which is to be measured, such as a liquid, a slurry, or a gas, that has fluctuation in the pressure thereof, passes through a differential pressure generating mechanism. A pressure guiding tube blockage diagnosing device comprises: a rising/falling frequency detecting portion for segmenting the differential pressure values detected by the differential pressure transmitting device into a plurality of intervals, and for detecting, for each interval, the rising/falling frequency of the fluctuation of the differential pressure; and an evaluating portion for comparing the rising/falling frequency of the fluctuation to a specific threshold value to evaluate the state of blockage of the pressure guiding tubes. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110188705 | IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE, IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND IMAGE PROCESSING PROGRAM - A frequency component of noise that is included in both images, and a frequency component of a first image that does not include said noise are estimated based on first image data obtained through imaging, using an imaging device, a first image that includes a specific image pattern, and based on second image data, obtained by imaging, using the imaging device, second image data that does not include the specific image pattern; and weighting is controlled, relative to frequencies, when calculating a correlation between the first image data and third image data, obtained through imaging a third image through the imaging device, based on the estimated individual frequency components. | 08-04-2011 |
| 20110224949 | STICK-SLIP DETECTING DEVICE AND DETECTING METHOD - For example, a regulator valve may be controlled from the outside through a positioner, or may be controlled autonomously by an adjusting mechanism in the valve. The result of the control is a change in the dislocation of the valve stem (movable portion). Additionally, there will be a change in a process change magnitude, such as the magnitude of flow of a fluid that passes through the regulator valve, in accordance with the magnitude of dislocation of the valve stem. In this way, the diagnosing operation controlling portion controls the operation of the diagnosing portion based on the magnitude of dislocation of the valve stem or on the magnitude of change of the measurement results (the measurement value) of a process change magnitude. | 09-15-2011 |
