The object of the present invention is to provide a video compression coding apparatus which, in the case where a code quantity variation allows a greater margin, can compress video data while suppressing any degradation of a video quality. First, input video data, after being transformed by a DCT section to a DCT coefficient, is quantized, by a quantizing section, with a quantization level designated with quantization control data. This quantized data is input to a variable length coding section where it is compression-coded in a block unit corresponding to a field or frame. A code quantity detecting section detects a code quantity of this coded data and delivers a result of detection to a quantization control section. The quantization control section has a given coding quantity-quantization level control characteristic representing a relation, to the quantization level, of the code quantity which obtains an average code quantity of initially input video data. The quantization control section determines a quantization level of the next block on the basis of the control characteristic and code quantity information from the code quantity detecting section and generates corresponding quantization control data.

The inspection apparatus for inspecting performance of a structure such as stator windings of an electric rotating machine of the invention comprises a probe including a measuring element, an arm unit and a cylinder face circumferential moving apparatus. The arm unit has an arm link section supporting the probe (mainly comprising a leading end link assembly and an arm posture keeping mechanism), an arm housing section (mainly comprising a guide rail) regarding driving of this arm link section, and an arm driving mechanism. The arm driving mechanism causes the leading end link assembly to project from the guide rail at an angle toward a measuring position side of the stator windings relative to the axial direction of the rotor unit, while causing the arm link section to travel along the guide rail. The arm posture keeping mechanism is provided with a link wire and a spring, and maintains a straight arm posture of the leading end link assembly after projection from the guide rail.

An electric rotating machine comprises a rotor body of cylindrical structure and a stator body covering an outer peripheral portion of the rotor body in a non-contact fashion. The stator body includes a stator winding formed with an insulation layer and arranged radially outward of the rotor body with a clearance from the rotor body and a stator core which supports the stator winding. The electrostatic capacity of the stator winding is measured by an electrostatic capacity measuring instrument which comprises a housing having a size allowing the housing to be accommodated in the clearance between the rotor body and the stator winding, a support body detachably secured to the rotor body and adapted to support the housing within the clearance to be movable, and a measuring element mounted to the housing on the side of the housing facing the stator winding and adapted to measure electrostatic capacity of the stator winding, wherein a degree of water penetration into the insulation of the stator winding is determined based on a measurement data from the measuring element.
