A power supply control device of a nitrogen gas generator includes: a pipe having a nitrogen gas inlet for receiving input of nitrogen gas from a nitrogen gas generator that compresses air by a compressor to separate the nitrogen gas from the air, and a nitrogen gas outlet for outputting, to outside, the nitrogen gas received by the nitrogen gas inlet; a pressure gauge that measures pressure inside the pipe; a flowmeter that measures a flow rate of the nitrogen gas flowing inside the pipe; and a control unit that controls supply of power to the compressor and shut-off of the supply of the power in accordance with a measurement result of at least one of the pressure gauge and the flowmeter.

Power supply control device of nitrogen gas generator

An automatic analyzing apparatusincludes a chip rackthat stores a pipette chip, a pipetteinto which a specimen is injected, a conveyance unit that conveys the pipetteby parallel translation, a reagent rack, a reaction unit, a detection unit, and a detection block unit. The pipette chip stored by the chip rackhas a planar structure to directly and optically detect the specimen. The chip rackincludes, in a hole that receives the pipette chip, a guide corresponding to the structure of the pipette chip. The pipettesucks or discharges the specimen via the pipette chip mounted onto the tip thereof by a drive of a pump. In the detection unit, a measurement is carried out with the pipette chip arranged so that the plane that receives light is vertical to an optical axis.

Analyzing apparatus

Provided is an electrical stimulation device including a first to fourth electrodes, and an electrical stimulation generation section which supplies an electrical stimulation signal to each of the first to fourth electrodes. The electrical stimulation generation section supplies, to the first and second electrodes, an electrical stimulation signal according to a first stimulation pattern, and supplies, to the third and fourth electrodes, an electrical stimulation signal according to a second stimulation pattern. The first stimulation pattern is set so that an electrical stimulation signal for changing stimulation intensity according to a first waveform is supplied to the first electrode, and an electrical stimulation signal for changing stimulation intensity according to a second waveform is supplied to the second electrode, the second waveform being increased and decreased in conjunction with the first waveform. The second stimulation pattern is set so that an electrical stimulation signal for changing stimulation intensity according to a third waveform is supplied to the third electrode, and an electrical stimulation signal for changing stimulation intensity according to a fourth waveform is supplied to the fourth electrode, the fourth waveform being increased and decreased in conjunction with the third waveform. The electrical stimulation generation section alternately performs electrical stimulation of the first stimulation pattern and electrical stimulation of the second stimulation pattern.

Electrical stimulation device, training apparatus, and electrical stimulation method

A training device includes an information outputter, an exercise status detector, an arithmetic processor, and a stimulus signal generator. The information outputter includes at least one of an image output unit and an audio output unit. The exercise status detector includes a body portion, a first grip portion and a second grip portion provided on the body portion, and sensors that detect a motion of the body portion. The arithmetic processor issues training action instruction information through the information outputter, and evaluates a matching degree between the contents of the training action instruction information and the motion of the body portion, based on output signals from the sensors of the exercise status detector. The stimulus signal generator applies a stimulus signal to the arm of a trainee.

Training device

The training apparatus includes a training machine, a detection means, and an arithmetic means. The training machine has a displacement unit displaced according to a training action and a load generation unit that imparts a load to a trainee. The detection means detects displacement of the displacement unit. The arithmetic means acquires at least one characteristic value possessed by a waveform corresponding to one unit of a training action which waveform is included in the displacement detected in the detection unit on a time axis, for each waveform, and to evaluate the acquired characteristic values for at least one of variation, transition tendency, and deviation from a predetermined value. The arithmetic means executes, based on the evaluation, at least one of control of the load generation unit, calculation of a load value set in the load generation unit, and notification of a result of the evaluation.

Training apparatus

A training apparatus includes a training machine, a detecting unit, a signal generating unit, and a control unit. The training machine includes a displaceable part that is movable in response to exercise motions performed by the exerciser during training exercise. The detecting unit detects the displacement of the displaceable part or detects the displacement of the target training area of the exerciser resulting from the exercise motions. The signal generating unit generates a stimulus signal to be applied to the exerciser during the training exercise. The control unit corrects a content of processing relating to stimulus signal performed by the signal generating unit based on the displacement detected by the detecting unit.
