A touch panel device includes a touch panel on which capacitance in a conductor contact region of an operation surface changes, at least one pressure sensor to output a pressure detection signal according to pressing force applied to the operation surface and a pressing position, and a controller to calculate first coordinates on the operation surface based on the capacitance and calculates second coordinates on the operation surface based on a pressure value indicated by the pressure detection signal. The controller outputs an operation signal based on the first coordinates when a first region as a region where the capacitance is higher than predetermined threshold capacitance is detected, size of the first region is less than or equal to a predetermined certain value, and the pressing force is greater than predetermined threshold pressing force.

The present invention is directed to a surface-coated cubic boron nitride sintered material tool including a cBN substrate and a hard coating layer formed on a surface of the cBN substrate and having an alternate laminated structure of A layer and B layer. The cBN substrate (sintered material) includes: a Ti compound, WC, AlN, TiB, AlO, and cBN. The A layer has a composition of (TiAl)N (0.4&#x2264;x&#x2264;0.7 in terms of atomic ratio). The B layer has a composition of (CrAlM)N (0.03&#x2264;y&#x2264;0.4 and 0&#x2264;z&#x2264;0.05 in terms of atomic ratio). A plastic deformation work ratio of the B layer is 0.35 to 0.50.

A touch input judgment device includes: a rotation direction judgment unit that determines a selection value change amount, to be added to a current selection value, when a rotation operation in a normal direction is inputted through a touch panel and stores rotation direction information in a storage unit when a rotation operation in the normal direction as a first rotation operation is performed; and a selection value change unit that sets a new current selection value after a change to a value obtained by adding a first selection value change amount to the current selection value when a rotation operation subsequent to the first rotation operation is a rotation operation in the normal direction and maintains the current selection value without change when the subsequent rotation operation is judged to be the return operation of the finger position.

The present invention is directed to a surface-coated cubic boron nitride sintered material tool including a cBN substrate and a hard coating layer formed on a surface of the cBN substrate and having an alternate laminated structure of A layer and B layer. A peak of the grain size distribution of cBN grains in the cBN sintered material is present within a range of a grain size from 0.50 to 1.00 &#x3bc;m. The A layer has a composition of (TiAl)N (0.4&#x2264;x&#x2264;0.7 in an atomic ratio). The B layer has a composition of (CrAlM)N (0.03&#x2264;y&#x2264;0.6 and 0&#x2264;z&#x2264;0.05 in an atomic ratio). An X-ray diffraction peak of a (200) plane is present at a position of a diffraction angle of 43.6 plus or minus 0.1 degrees, and a plastic deformation work ratio of the B layer is 0.35 to 0.50.

A storage area setting unit sets (2M+L) storage areas (M&#x3e;L&#x2265;1 and L is an integer) in a storage device, for storing M pieces of data from M data sources (M&#x2265;2 and M is an integer). A data specifying unit specifies an L piece of data as write-target data, from among the M pieces of data from the M data sources. A write-destination specifying unit specifies within the (2M+L) storage areas, a storage area that is a write destination of the L piece of write-target data, from among storage areas excluding storage areas from which data is read during the L piece of write-target data is being written, storage areas into which data from each data source has been written last, and storage areas from which data from each data source has been read last. A write processing unit writes the L piece of write-target data into the specified storage area.

A weld structure includes a fitting portion at which a first member and a second member are engaged, a weld portion at which the first member and the second member are welded together, and a space between the fitting portion and the weld portion. One of the first member and the second member has a communication passage whose one end is open to the space and whose other end is open to an outside at a position other than the space. The communication passage is blocked by an insertion member that has a predetermined function in addition to blocking the communication passage.

A reference point determinator determines, as a reference point, the center of each pixel where a sloped line is located. A candidate line generator generates candidate lines each connecting between a point in a pixel having the start point of the sloped line extracted by an endpoint extractor, and a point in a pixel having the end point of the sloped line. A candidate line selector selects a candidate line having the smallest sum total of distances between the candidate line and the reference points from the candidate lines generated by the candidate line generator. A data corrector corrects the sloped line to the candidate line selected by the candidate line selector.
