Magnetic disk device and head positioning method

Provided is a knowledge extracting apparatus for extracting knowledge information related to a knowledge-extraction target from an electronic document distributed continually in a state where the electronic document is not associated with the knowledge-information extraction target. A knowledge extracting apparatus according to one embodiment is a knowledge extracting apparatus including: an information receiving section for receiving an electronic document; a knowledge extracting section for extracting a concept from the electronic document based on a target word to extract knowledge information and a clue word to extract knowledge information and forming knowledge information in which the concept thus extracted and the target word are associated with each other; a storage section for storing the knowledge information thus extracted; and an information analysis section for, after the knowledge information is stored, analyzing the electronic document based on the knowledge information in the storage section.

Forming knowledge information based on a predetermined threshold of a concept and a predetermined threshold of a target word extracted from a document

A lock device includes a base, a first rotation member, a second rotation member, a first elastic member, and a second elastic member. Protrusions are provided on one of the base and one of the first rotation member and the second rotation member. The protrusions are protruded in a direction parallel to the rotation axis of the first rotation member. An end of one of the first elastic member and the second elastic member is fixed to the protrusions. The protruding length in the rotation axis direction of the protrusions is longer than the length in the rotation axis direction of one of the first elastic member and the second elastic member.

Lock device

A locking device provided with: a striker-contact member () which is positioned on a hook () and is abutted against a striker being entered the groove () of the hook () so as to sandwich the striker in cooperation with the groove () of the hook (); and a spring (hook-biasing member) () that urges the hook () in the unlocked position direction via the striker-contact member () and that urges the striker-contact member () in a direction a direction to be abutted against the striker.

Locking device

A refrigerant circulation apparatus includes: a vehicle-interior air conditioning () that cools an interior of a vehicle; an on-vehicle battery cooler () that includes an evaporator for on-vehicle battery cooling () that cools an on-vehicle battery mounted on the vehicle; and an electric compressor () that compresses and supplies a refrigerant to at least one of the vehicle-interior air conditioning () and the on-vehicle battery cooling (). The apparatus also includes: a temperature sensor () that detects a temperature of the electric compressor (); a pressure sensor () that detects a pressure of the refrigerant compressed by the electric compressor (); and a control unit () that restricts operation of the evaporator for on-vehicle battery cooling () to reduce load on the electric compressor () based on the temperature of the electric compressor () and the pressure of the refrigerant.
