Abstract:
A component supply apparatus capable of aligning components of various shapes, which are supplied in bulk, within a short period of time with general means. The apparatus includes a three-dimensional vision sensor measuring a depth map, a bulk component box, a robot picking up a component from the bulk component box, a temporary placing table onto which components are rolled, a two-dimensional vision sensor measuring a profile of the components, a robot group picking up the component rolled on the temporary placing table, and changing a position and orientation of the component into a position and orientation that involve an error of a certain level or less with respect to a position and orientation that are specified in advance, while changing the position and orientation of the component, and a control device controlling those portions.
Abstract:
A decoding/reproducing apparatus is equipped with: a time period setting apparatus 13 for previously setting a time period related to a synchronous control operation; a reproducing time instant detecting means 6 for detecting synchronous reproduction-purpose reproducing time instant information from stored stream data in the time period; a synchronous control apparatus 7 which compares the detected reproducing time instant information with system time instant information, and which instructs to wait for an output in the case that a difference between a reproducing time instant and a system time instant is larger than 0, and is smaller than a preset positive value, and also which instructs to discard output data in the case that a difference between a reproducing time instant and a system time instant is defined within a range of a preset negative value; and output data discarding/output waiting apparatus 4 and 11 for controlling discarding of the output data, or waiting of the output.
Abstract:
Side guides for rolling steel rods comprise front and rear rolling guide frames consisting of partitions abuttingly connected to each other in a gap between a pair of rolls having cylindrical surface barrels to form defined rolling zones which are side by side along the roll barrels and divided by the partitions and capable of retaining steel rods being rolled, thereby effectively carrying out rolling of steel rods with grooveless rolls without using calibers without twisting and deforming the steel rods into incorrect cross-sections.
Abstract:
An industrial robot system may enable a reduction in an installation/adjustment period, and an increase in a no-error continuous operation period. The system includes an action planning section for temporary halts, an error-inducing-task restraining section, a section for teaching task, an operation mastering section, a hand library, an optimum-task-operation generating section, a specific task library, an error-recovery-task teaching section, an error recovery library, a finger-eye-camera measurement section including an omnidirectional mirror, a three-dimensional recognition section, a controller, a manipulator, and a hand with a plurality of fingers.

Abstract:
The present invention provides an optical element fixing structure, an optical element fixing body, an optical element and an optical element holder which make tightening with a fixing screw unnecessary, prevents thereby a decrease in performance, such as the generation of strain in the optical element such as a crystal, and can improve the mounting accuracy. The optical element fixing structure 10 includes an optical element 6 and an optical element holder 1 to fix and mount the optical element 6. The optical element 6 has one or multiple slits 8 as strain and stress absorbing means in the thickness direction in the end part thereof, and the optical element holder 1 has depressing means 3 to fix the optical element 6 by depressing at least one of the front surface and the back surface of the optical element 6 outside the slit 8.
Abstract:
A numerically controlled apparatus for a machine tool has a tool and machining condition automatically controlling function, and stores standard data of tools and machining conditions in a standard database. The input device of the apparatus inputs the users data of tools and machining conditions other than the contents of the standard database, and the apparatus stores the data inputted with the input device in one or more user databases. The tool and machining condition automatically determining function of the apparatus determines tool and machining condition data by utilizing both of the standard database and one or more the user databases.

Abstract:
A machine tool is controlled in response to a numerical control program that is indicative of tool path data. A user selects a working region on which the machine tool will operate. A portion of the tool path data that corresponds to the selected working region is determined, so that both the selected working region and the portion of the tool path data may be displayed on a display. Such a display may also include a grid so that the user may select grid areas. Grid areas may be selected so that only data associated with the selected grid areas is modified, or to allow the user to modify a visible outline of the area to be worked, or to allow the user to select non-workable regions for which the original tool path data will not be modified. Further magnification may be based upon a predetermined magnification rate or a magnification rate selected by the user.
