IPC: A63F7/02
Filed: 2002-05-10
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pachinko machine that can increase the storing capacity of balls that are paid out from a ball pay-out device without enlarging a ball plate.  <P>SOLUTION: A ball pay-out flow path 21 for winning balls and renting balls is installed on the left side of a sprocket wheel 13 of the ball pay-out device 10 and a ball flow path 27 that leads to the ball plate is installed below a ball discharging opening 26 of the ball pay-out flow path 21. A ball receiving opening 28 of the ball flowing path 27 is formed wider than the ball discharge opening 26 and a full capacity detecting sensor 31 is installed in an open space immediately below the sprocket wheel 13 on the ball discharging opening 26 side among the bottom surface of the ball pay-out device 10 to be located adjacent to the ball receiving opening 28. When the full capacity detecting sensor 31 detects that the pachinko balls are pooled up to the detecting position (the top flowing part of the ball flowing path 27) of the full capacity detecting sensor 31, it determines that the pachinko balls are pooled in full capacity and stops the pay-out motion of the ball pay-out device 10. By this the space up to the extreme upstream part of the ball flowing path 27 is used as pachinko balls pooling space.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an on-vehicle navigation apparatus and a method for modifying the bearing of one's own motor vehicle capable of correcting the bearing of one's own motor vehicle in a short period of time and to provide a program for implementing the method.   <P>SOLUTION: The on-vehicle navigation apparatus corrects the bearing of one's own motor vehicle according to the vector bearing difference θ, between a first vector AB connecting a reference point A to a first point B computed by navigation and a second vector AC connecting the reference point A to a second point C specified by predetermined location data. Since the vector bearing difference reflects error in the bearing of one's own motor vehicle on the first point, it is possible to speedily correct the bearing of one's own motor vehicle according to the vector bearing difference. For example, in the case that the vector bearing difference exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the bearing of one's own motor vehicle is corrected. The predetermined location data is, for example, location data included in an optical beacon or a radio beacon, location data acquired from GPS signals having specific reliability, or location data acquired by ETC (electronic toll collection) systems.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

IPC: G01F1/00
Filed: 2002-05-23
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To lessen a change in an instrumental error, to always make the instrumental error approximately constant from a laminar flow region of a small flow rate over to a turbulent flow region of a large flow rate, to simplify fitting of ultrasonic vibrators, to reduce the size of a flowmeter, and to reduce pressure losses.   <P>SOLUTION: Like a type figure of Fig. 4, in the upstream end of a watercourse, the watercourse has a cross section in the shape of a deformed oval whose upper width W2 is wider. In the center, the watercourse has a cross section in the shape of an oval whose width W is uniform. In the downstream end, the watercourse has a cross section in the shape of a deformed oval whose lower width W1 is wider. In a laminar flow region of a small flow rate, the maximum flow velocity of a flow velocity distribution deviates upwards. In the center, the maximum flow velocity value is on the center axis X-X, and deviates downwards in the downstream end. A propagation time measured by a pair of vibrators 4, 5 arranged on the center axis X-X has a good correlation with the average flow velocity of cross sections, prevents an instrumental error in the laminar flow region from showing a plus tendency, and improves the instrumental error characteristic.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
