    摘要: A modular workpiece holding system having a top portion of a baseplate member having at least one opposingly facing fixed wedge assembly and dynamic wedge assembly. The dynamic wedge assembly is operationally coupled to at least one spring and piston assembly adapted to draw the dynamic wedge assembly axially towards the baseplate member wherein the dynamic wedge assembly, when the workpiece holding system is in a resting state, imparts a transverse force onto a workpiece member, pressing the workpiece member against the fixed wedge assembly, securing the workpiece to the workpiece holding system. The spring member is releasable when one or more of a gas and hydraulic fluid used to push the dynamic wedge assembly outward is discharged from the spring and piston assembly cavity within the fixture base, whereupon the spring member is adapted to re-impart the traverse force of the resting state of the dynamic wedge assembly.

    摘要: Wired portable or permanent pylon-mounted, single or multiple camera assemblies providing high-definition images, remote video parameter adjustment, real time imaging, lower camera mounting, microphone use, no overheating problems, longer run times, and installation and removal without disturbing field surface. Pylon is molded from high-density, impact resistant foam, integrated with a break-away connect providing for non-destructively breaking and remaking electrical connections. Increased content of high impact, resistant material provides player and pylon protection. Camera wiring extends internally to integral connecting base fitted with magnets for quick and accurate mating with stationary turf base. Wires in turf carry signals from camera to a fiber optic transmitter that powers the pylon cameras, converts the electrical signals to optical signals, and receives control signals converting them to electrical signals. Thousands of meters range optical signals converted back to electrical high-definition video signals by fiber optic receiver and recorded by replay devices for instant viewing.

    摘要: An object of the present invention is to provide a currency handling system which makes it possible to decrease a risk of dealing with foreign currency at the time of the occurrence of a communication error in a case in which a currency reading device capable of accepting a variety of currencies including a foreign currency is used while the currency handling system is connected to a management server through a communication line. A currency handling system 100 is connected to a casino management system 2 through a network 3, and includes a currency reading device 201 which is capable of accepting a variety of currencies and a PTS terminal 700. The PTS terminal 700 causes a process which limits usage of a foreign currency but allows usage of a local currency in the currency reading device 201 to be performed in a case (offline state) in which an error occurs in communication with the casino management system 2.
