An inspection cable guide mechanism of the present disclosure includes a heat-resistant sheath having flexibility through which a cable is allowed to be inserted and cooling air is allowed to flow toward a tip through a gap between the cable and the heat-resistant sheath, a segment stacked body configured by stacking segments having heat resistance configured to cover the heat-resistant sheath in a centerline direction, and a plurality of wires disposed around the heat-resistant sheath and extending along a centerline, one segment of the segment stacked body is swingable with respect to two segments adjacent to the one segment about swing axes extending in a direction perpendicular to the centerline, the two swing axes becoming centers when the one segment swings with respect to the two segments are perpendicular to each other when viewed in the centerline direction, and one end of each wire is fixed to one of the segments in the segment stacked body.

Inspection cable guide mechanism, driving device, inspection cable insertion jig, and gas turbine inspection system including these

A control device for an inspection device including a long flexible robot that is formed by connecting a plurality of units and bendable at each unit with a desired curvature, and a posture actuator that adjusts a posture of the unit includes a target posture specifying unit that specifies a target posture including positions of representative points of the respective units traveling along a predetermined route, and an operation amount determination unit that determines an operation amount for bringing the unit to the target posture using a learning model with the target posture of the unit as an input and an operation amount of the posture actuator as an output.

Control device, inspection system, control method, and non-transitory computer-readable medium

A mobile robothaving a plurality of kinds of moving forms includes a body unithaving a front face and a back face, four limb unitshaving a plurality of limb-side drive shafts, and front end toolsprovided on a front end side of the limb units. A base end side of the limb unitis connected to the body unit. The four limb unitsare the same units. The body unitand the four limb unitsare movable by switching a front face side and a back face side so that a moving operation of the front face side and a moving operation of the back face side are symmetrical across the center of a thickness direction of the body unit

Mobile robot and front end tool

A system, media, and method for transforming a main image of a digital image in accordance with a parameter are provided. The main image that is transformed based on the parameter may be one stored in the Exchangeable Image File ('EXIF') format. In turn, the metadata, including the thumbnail image, is updated to correspond to the transformed main image. The transformed main image and updated metadata are stored together in a file using the EXIF format. Thus, the transformed main image may be viewed using a digital camera or viewer software compatible with a properly formatted EXIF file.

Transformation of EXIF images

This present invention provides a system and method for transforming a main image of a digital image, such as one stored in the Exchangeable Image File ('EXIF') format, updating the metadata, including the thumbnail image, to correspond to the transformed main image. The transformed main image and updated metadata are stored together in a file using the EXIF format so that the transformed main image may be viewed using a digital camera or viewer software compatible with a properly formatted EXIF file.

Transformation of images

A phosphorescent phosphor comprising a matrix expressed by M.sub.1-x Al.sub.2 O.sub.4-x (except X=0) in which M is at least one metal element selected from a group consisting of calcium, strontium and barium. X is in a range -0.33.ltoreq..times..ltoreq.0.60 (except x=0). Europium is doped to said matrix as an activator and at least one element selected from a group consisting of lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium and lutetium is doped to said matrix as a co-activator. Magnesium is doped to M.

Phosphorescent phosphor

A phosphorescent phosphor according to the present invention includes a matrix expressed by MAl.sub.2 O.sub.4 in which M is at least one metal element selected from a group consisting of calcium, strontium and barium. Alternatively, a phosphorescent phosphor according to the present invention includes a matrix expressed by MAl.sub.2 O.sub.4 in which M is plural metal elements which are composed of magnesium and at least one metal element selected from a group consisting of calcium, strontium and barium and europium is added as an activator, further, co-activator is added.

A colony counting apparatus includes a reading unit with a visual sensor incorporated therein. The presence of a colony is detected at the end of that colony by moving the reading unit along lines selected at an appropriate pitch and by reading data on the individual points set along each line as logical high or low signals. The values obtained in the above-described counting operation are added and stored in an addition/storage device in a CPU, and the results of addition which are stored in the addition/storage device are output to a suitable display by an outputting device when the counting operation is completed.

Colony counting apparatus

An alcohol concentration sensor provided a tube shaped means (21) of which the top end (211) is closed with a top end closing means (20) and of which the bottom end (212) is remained open, a gas supply tube means (22) which penetrates the top end closing means (20) to extend down into the tube shaped means (21), which is provided an air blower means (24), and of which the lower end (221) terminates slightly upper than the bottom end (212) of the tube shaped means (21), thereby the lower end (221) of the gas supply tube means (22) is soaked into a liquid (10) containing water and alcohol, of which the alcohol concentration is required to be determined, deeply sufficient to allow the air bubbles flown out of the gas supply tube means (22) into the liquid (10) to absorb sufficient quantity of alcohol contained in the liquid (10), whenever the tube shaped means (21) is soaked in the liquid (10 ), a gas drawing out means (26) which penetrates the top end closing means (20), a gas temperature sensing means (27) which is connected with the gas drawing out means (26) for determining the temperature of the gas in the neighborhood of a gas oxidation means for oxidizing the alcohol evaporated from the liquid (10), a temperature/alcohol concentration calibration means for calibrating the temperature of the gas toward the corresponding alcohol concentration, and an alcohol concentration output means for outputting the alcohol concentration determined by the temperature/alcohol concentration calibration means.

Alcohol concentration sensor
