Provided is a method for producing a photochromic optical article having a photochromic coating layer exhibiting photochromism formed on an optical base such as a plastic lens which has good optical characteristics and photochromic characteristics, and also has good adhesion between the base and the photochromic layer. The method enables to easily produce such a photochromic optical article by improving wettability of a photochromic coating agent for a primer. In this method, the photochromic optical article is produced by forming a primer layer on the optical base surface by coating a primer comprising an emulsion which has a colloidally dispersed urethane resin in a dispersion medium, and then forming on the primer layer.

A technique of carrying out communications between communication terminals on different LANs while realizing reductions in the burden of account control and suppression in load on a server includes first and second relay servers on first and second LANs issuing a registration request to a SIP-server, respectively. A first communication terminal on the first LAN issues a registration request to the first relay server while a second communication terminal on the second LAN issues a registration request to the second relay server. The first and second relay servers exchange account information about the registered communication terminals with each other. When the first communication terminal generates communication data addressed to the second communication terminal, the first relay server selects the second relay server as a relay based on the exchanged account information to relay the communication data. Then, the second relay server relays the communication data to the second communication terminal.

A system a vehicle having a wheel-driving motor is disclosed. The system includes wheel speed sensors for detecting speed of respective vehicle wheels, and a controller for controlling coast regenerative torque of the vehicle. The controller lowers coast regenerative torque based on wheel speed acquired detected using the wheel speed sensors. The controller is lowers coast regenerative torque based on speed difference among the wheels and based on change of wheel slip ratio.

A cutter wheel for scribing a brittle material substrate having excellent biting in the surface of the brittle material substrate when the brittle material substrate used for a liquid crystal display panel or the like is cut and a method for manufacturing the cutter wheel with high productivity are provided. The cutter wheel made of a hard metal or sintered diamond is formed in such a manner that a V-shaped ridge line part is formed as an edge along the circumferential part of a disk-like wheel, and at least one notch is engraved in the above described ridge line part and notches as that described above are formed in the entirety of the periphery of the above described ridge line part at a pitch of more than 200 μm.

A radio signal receiving apparatus receiving a radio signal over a radio channel generates a first amplified signal by amplifying the radio signal with a first gain, and determines the first gain by measuring the strength of the first amplified signal. In addition, the radio signal receiving apparatus generates a down-converted signal by frequency down-converting the first amplified signal, and generates a second amplified signal by amplifying the down-converted signal with a second gain. In addition, the radio signal receiving apparatus determines the second gain by measuring the strength of the second amplified signal.

The present invention discloses a contactless control device for a range hood and a control method thereof. The contactless control device comprises two sets of infrared gesture sensing devices disposed on the housing of the range hood, and a detected signal analysis device. Each set of infrared gesture sensing devices comprises one infrared receiving device and at least one infrared transmitting device. The distance L between two infrared receiving devices meets the following condition: H*tan(θ)+H*tan(β)+W_min<L<H*tan(θ)+H*tan(β)+W_max. It is unnecessary to control the user's gesture sensing distance according to the intensity of the infrared transmitted signals. In this way, it is convenient to adjust the intensity of the infrared transmitted signals, and the infrared receiving device can better detect infrared signals.

An in-vehicle camera system including a far camera and a near camera, both of which capture an image ahead of a vehicle, includes a determining unit configured to, during travel of the vehicle, determine whether an illumination of an image captured by the far camera is abnormal as a result of an illumination change ahead of the vehicle, and an aperture control unit configured to, when the determining unit determines that the illumination of the image captured by the far camera is abnormal, execute aperture control over the near camera.

A method for installing filler tube includes the steps of: preparing a fuel tank including an opening; preparing an intervening member including a cylindrical member body and an annular member flange; preparing a filler tube including a cylindrical tube body and an annular tube flange; arranging the intervening member so that not only the member body is arranged in the interior of the fuel tank through the opening but also the member flange locks to a front-side peripheral face of the opening of the fuel tank; and welding not only the front-side peripheral with the tube flange but also the member flange with the tube flange by arranging a hot plate in a facing space between the front-side peripheral face and the tube flange and then warming the front-side peripheral face, the member flange and the tube flange.

The invention relates to a control bar for grip, traction and control of a traction unit which has the control means of the control device, steering, acceleration and possible elevation and descent integrated into the structure thereof, the control means able to be thumbwheels, push buttons, pressure sensors, a gyroscope, a joystick or any combination of the same, or electronic processing means that allow for voice recognition. It also has a control unit and another communications unit (either connected by wiring or wireless) as well as its own power supply integrated in the support structure or received from the traction unit.

A parking support device of the present invention, which is configured to move a vehicle in a longitudinal direction and stop the vehicle in a specified space by using a communication terminal to send a control signal to the vehicle, comprises a step detection part which is configured to detect presence/absence of a step in a moving direction of the vehicle, a moving stop part which is configured to stop moving of the vehicle in a case where presence of the step is detected by the step detection part, and a moving restart part which is configured to restart the moving of the vehicle so as to ride over the step in a case where the control signal from the communication terminal is received after the moving of the vehicle is stopped by the moving stop part.
