Abstract: Bearings (5, 7) fixed to the two ends of a rotation shaft (2) of a
motor/generator are pressurized by plate springs 15, 17. The
plate springs (15, 17) absorb the deflection off the rotation
shaft (2) due to external vibration by the extension and
contraction. An effective gaps L is set to value at which the
bearings (5, 7) do not collide with the housing (9) in the most
compressed state of the plate springs (15, 17). By this setting,
the effective gap L is set to a value larger than the maximum
amplitude in the direction of the rotation shaft (2) due to the
external vibration.

Abstract: A broadcast transmission apparatus is disclosed which,
simultaneously during broadcast of a program, announces
holding of letter-guessing games or lottos; solicits
participants in such games; and allows the participants to
verify whether they have won in what they are taking part of.
A lottery issuing device 1 issues lottery data and winning
ticket data. A transmitting device 2 transmits the lottery
data and winning ticket data in multiplexed relation with
the broadcast program. A receiving device 3 receives the
lottery data over a sub-band of the broadcast program being
received, generates user lottery data made of a character
string for participation in the lottery, receives the
winning ticket data, and judges whether the user lottery
data have won based on the winning ticket data. If the user
lottery data are judged to have won, the receiving device 3
transmits to a management server 4 the winning user lottery
data along with a receiving device profile including user
information. The management server 4 verifies that the user
lottery data from the receiving device 3 constitute a win
and transmits a winning report to the lottery issuing device
1 along with the receiving device profile. The invention
applies to any broadcast whereby characters are transmitted
along with a broadcast program.

IPC: G05B23/02
Filed: 2002-06-21
Abstract: Disclosed is a data collection and retrieval system that puts data produced by real-time and non-real-time data sources into parallel "streams" or data files. Real-time data points are stored with time stamps in data files and non-real-time data points with time stamps are stored in other data files. Real-time data points are stamped with the times at which their data were collected. Non-real-time data points are stored in time-sequential order, the sequence time being the time of relevance rather than the time of collection. By referencing the streams that contain data points relevant to a given period, header files facilitate coordinated retrieval of data from multiple parallel streams. The time stamps allow the data points to be merged together into one coordinated, time-sequential data stream for analysis. The parallel stream data collection and retrieval technique allows operators to add or delete data sources without shutting down the process being monitored.
