Abstract: A grain tank for an agricultural harvester has an
extension assembly to enable the volume of the tank to be
increased. The extension assembly comprises two pairs of
mutually opposed panels 10,12 that are movable relative to
the tank between a lowered position in which they serve as a
cover for an opening in the top of the tank and a raised
position in which they define the side walls of an extension
volume that communicates through the opening with the
interior of the tank. In the invention, a blind 32 is
secured to the opposed panels 10,12 of one of the pairs to
cover the grain tank when the extension assembly is raised.
The blind 32 is automatically deployed from a stowed
position to a extended position as the two panels are moved
to their raised position.

Abstract: An optical encoder whose environmental resistance is improved by
increasing the variety of options of materials for a resin-made code plate
(1) thereof. Used as material for at least a code pattern (11) of the code
plate (1) of the optical encoder is one which meets the condition that the
material has spectral transmittance of 70% or more with respect to
detection light and that of 50% or less with respect to partial light (for
example blue light) of visible wavelengths in translucent sections. If
infrared light having wavelengths between 800 nm and 1000 nm is used as
detection light, it is preferable to apply polyetherimide, polyethersulfone or
polyphenylsulfone as a colored resin material. These materials are
excellent in heat resistance, oil resistance, etc., compared to transparent and
colorless materials (PMMA, PC, glass, etc.) which have been
conventionally used, and hardly cause melting, deformation, white
turbidity, etc., in a harsh environment.

Abstract: A brake device (50) for frequently braking a moving part, particularly a shaft of a rotating table of a tool machine, comprises a pretensioned ring-shaped spring plate element (11, 55). On the front and rear sides, each a sealing plate (57, 58) is arranged. In cooperation with seals (60, 61, 63, 64) and the surrounding housing (68), two chambers (7, 31) are defined on both sides of the spring element (11, 55). By increasing pressure in the chamber (7) on the concave side of the spring element (11, 55), the spring element may be subjected to a deforming force being equal or exceeding its tension so that its action on the brake sheet (22) is compensated, hence the brake is loosened. In contrast, pressure in the other chamber (31) supports the spring's action, hence the brake's effect.

Abstract: A 3D model storage means (170) stores the 3D shape data of a target object and illumination base data in advance. A comparison image generation means (110) generates, as a comparison image, a reproduced image with the target object being arranged in the position/posture of the current estimation value under the same illumination condition as that for the input image on the basis of the 3D shape data and illumination base data. An image displacement distribution detection means (120) segments the comparison image into partial images (sub-regions) and detects the image displacement distribution between the comparison image and the input image for each sub-region. A posture difference calculation means (130) calculates a position/posture difference value on the basis of the image displacement distribution and 3D shape data. An end determination means (140) outputs the current position/posture estimation value as an optimum position/posture estimation value (13) when determining that the position/posture difference value is smaller than a predetermined threshold value. Hence, the position or posture of an object contained in an image can be estimated at a high speed.
