The third fastening device is designed to hold the scale on the intermediate support at the first position such that it is longitudinally fixed, and the fourth fastening device is designed to hold the scale at a third position such that it is freely movable in the longitudinal direction.
BRIDGE DISPLACEMENT CALCULATING APPARATUS, BRIDGE DISPLACEMENT MEASURING APPARATUS, BRIDGE DISPLACEMENT CALCULATING METHOD, BRIDGE DISPLACEMENT MEASURING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM
A bridge displacement calculating apparatus comprises a DC component removing part, a high-pass filter part, a first integration part, and a second integration part. The DC component removing part outputs DC-removed acceleration data. The high-pass filter part uses, as a cutoff frequency, the reciprocal of a time in which a vehicle has passed between the frame bodies of the bridge. The first integration part integrates input data thereto. The second integration part integrates input data thereto and outputs displacement data. The high-pass filter part receives DC-removed acceleration data, the first integration part receives the output of the high-pass filter part, the second integration part receives the output of the first integration part, or the first integration part receives the DC-removed acceleration data, the high-pass filter part receives the output of the first integration part, and the second integration part receives the output of the high-pass filter part.
Container Load Quality Monitoring and Feedback System
A method of generating feedback for a container load process includes: during a load process for a container at a load bay, controlling a sensor assembly disposed at the load bay to capture sensor data depicting an interior of the container; at a computing device connected to the sensor assembly, detecting, based on the sensor data, a wall of items placed in the container interior; determining, at the computing device from the sensor data: (i) a boundary attribute of the detected wall, and (ii) a composition attribute of the detected wall; comparing, at the computing device, (i) the boundary attribute to a boundary criterion, and (ii) the composition attribute to a composition criterion; and responsive to at least one of the boundary attribute not meeting the boundary criterion, or the composition attribute not meeting the composition attribute, generating an alert for transmission to a client computing device.
Combined microscope objective and microwave wire for optically detected magnetic resonance imaging
A microscope objective is disclosed comprising; a lens; a housing; a lens holder that is arranged to couple the lens to the housing; a first conductor and a second conductor, the first conductor and the second conductor extending along a sidewall of the housing, the first conductor and the second conductor being arranged to form at least one loop that is that is disposed about at least a portion of a perimeter of a field of view of the lens.
Method for producing a measuring head housing, cover and measuring head housing
A method for producing a measuring head housing for an integrated measuring system of a linear bearing of a profile rail guide includes providing a cover blank of a flat material with an adhesive layer and bending the cover blank to form a cover. A cover for a measuring head housing and a measuring head housing are also disclosed.
PEDIATRIC HEAD COVERING FOR USE WITH THREE-DIMENSIONAL IMAGING
A pediatric head covering to facilitate obtaining three-dimensional images of a head of an infant to be utilized in manufacture of a cranial remodeling orthosis for correction of an abnormal head shape comprises sheer elastic material to be drawn down over an infant's head to compress the hair of an infant and to provide a smooth surface over the infant's cranium. The elastic material has variable elasticity with less elasticity over the crown of the cranium to provide enough strength to compress the infant's hair and conform to the shape of the cranium and more elasticity at the infant's neck to control soft tissue of the infant's neck without leading to distortion of the soft tissue and causing misrepresentations of the actual neck shape in captured three-dimensional images. The head covering facilitates accurate capture and reproduction of three-dimensional images of the infant's head by a three-dimensional image capturing system. The head covering is sized based upon anthropometric data derived from three-dimensional data sets of infant heads.
ECU device, vehicle seat, system for estimating lower limb length of seated person, and attachment structure for sitting height detection sensor
An ECU device which estimates a length of a lower limb of a seated person who is seated in a vehicle seat is shown. The ECU device includes the following. A thigh angle information obtainer obtains information regarding a thigh angle of the seated person. A back knee angle information obtainer obtains information regarding a back knee angle of the seated person. An estimator estimates the length of the lower limb of the seated person based on the information regarding the thigh angle obtained by the thigh angle information obtainer and information regarding the back knee angle obtained by the back knee angle information obtainer.
Vending machine and method for detecting height of storage column
Disclosed are a vending machine and a method of detecting height of a storage column. The vending machine may determine whether a sensor squarely faces the front end surface of the level plate of a storage column by detecting the type of an output signal of the sensor. When the sensor squarely faces the front end surface of the level plate of the storage column, the height of the level plate of the storage column may be obtained based on a height difference between the sensor and the bearing surface of a bucket and the height of the bucket. Thus, according to the height of the level plate of the storage column, the bearing surface of the bucket and the upper edge of the front end surface of the level plate of the storage column lie in the same level when dispensing an item.

MEASURING SYSTEM AND MEASURING METHOD FOR VEHICLE ENGINE
The present invention relates to a rotary jig for rotation of a crank shaft of a vehicle and a measuring system using the same. The measuring system includes: a rotary jig (100) for rotating a crank shaft (C) by opening only a bonnet in a vehicle stop state; a probe (700) joined to the position where a spark plug of an engine is separated and having an extension rod located at the center of a piston to check a top dead point and to output signal values when the crank shaft is rotated according to rotation of the rotary jig; a pump (810) for supplying air to a cylinder chamber of the engine through a tube connected to the probe (700) to move the piston; a terminal (900) for outputting the signal value of the probe (700) to a display unit through wireless communication; and a control unit (800) for controlling the signal values.
The measuring system can rotate the crank shaft after a worker opens only a bonnet and mounts the rotary jig at an end portion of the crank shaft when the crank shaft is rotated, thereby enabling the worker to simply measure an operational state of the engine linked with the crank shaft.
