20080291062 | IMAGE CODING APPARATUS AND METHOD THEREOF - An image coding apparatus includes a variable length coding section, an arithmetic coding section and a common buffer memory. The variable length coding section inputs image data and outputs a binarized code sequence applied with variable length coding. The arithmetic coding section applies arithmetic coding to the binarized code sequence outputted from the variable length coding section. The common buffer memory transmits and receives data between the variable length coding section and the arithmetic coding section. | 11-27-2008 |
20090097567 | ENCODING APPARATUS AND ENCODING METHOD - An encoding apparatus includes: an orthogonal transformation unit configured to orthogonally transform image data of a predetermined block size; a binarization unit configured to binarize the image data outputted from the orthogonal transformation unit; an arithmetic encoding unit configured to arithmetically encode the binary data generated by the binarization unit; and a prediction unit configured to predict, from the binary data, whether or not the amount of arithmetically encoded data generated by the arithmetic encoding unit exceeds a permissible maximum code amount based on a predetermined encoding standard. The encoding apparatus performs, when the prediction result is that the amount of arithmetically encoded data exceeds the maximum code amount, control to prevent the arithmetic encoding by the arithmetic encoding unit from being performed to the binary data corresponding to the prediction result. | 04-16-2009 |
20090104050 | Compressor - A suction muffler receives low-temperature refrigerant gas discharged into a hermetic container from a suction pipe by a gas catcher, and feeds the gas to a compressor. The lower end of an opening of the gas catcher is located at a position lower than the lower end of an orifice of the suction pipe so as to catch the refrigerant gas falling obliquely downward inside the hermetic container. | 04-23-2009 |
20090136369 | HERMETIC COMPRESSOR - This hermetic compressor includes a regulation mechanism, which is arranged between a lower washer and an upper end face of a bearing, for regulating a movable distance in a thrust direction of the lower washer so that the movable distance can be shorter than clearance between an inner diameter of the lower washer and an outer diameter of a main shaft portion. It is possible to prevent the inner diameter of the lower washer from coming into contact with the outer diameter of the main shaft portion by this regulation mechanism. | 05-28-2009 |
20090245351 | MOVING PICTURE DECODING APPARATUS AND MOVING PICTURE DECODING METHOD - A motion vector decoding section alternately decodes motion vectors of sub-reference blocks that respectively belong to two reference blocks in different reference directions. Upon decoding of each set of motion vectors of the sub-reference blocks in the two reference blocks, a block boundary strength calculating section calculates a block boundary strength bS of a sub-macroblock currently being processed and corresponding to the position of the sub-reference blocks. | 10-01-2009 |
20100158721 | HERMETIC COMPRESSOR AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME - Provided is a hermetic compressor in which an electric element having a stator and rotor provided therein and a compression element driven by the electric element are housed and the compression element includes a shaft which has a main shaft portion and an eccentric shaft portion, a cylinder block, a main shaft bearing which is formed in the cylinder block and supports the main shaft bearing of the shaft, a piston which reciprocates, a connection mechanism which connects the piston to the eccentric shaft portion, and a thrust-ball bearing, the thrust ball bearing having a plurality balls and a holder portion for holding the balls, and the holder portion being formed of polymer obtained by polycondensating diaminobutane and adipic acid. | 06-24-2010 |
20100200095 | HERMETIC COMPRESSOR - The inclination of the suction reed at the time of sucking the refrigerant can be increased when L/S is not more than 0.25 where S (mm | 08-12-2010 |
20130339271 | EVALUATION SYSTEM, EVALUATION METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - An evaluation system includes a device including a processor and a memory storing a program and a first external apparatus. The program is configured to cause the processor to function as an action detecting unit that detects a predefined action, an identification information obtaining unit that obtains identification information of an evaluation target when the predefined action is detected by the action detecting unit, an identification information storing unit that stores the obtained identification information in a storage, and a transmitting unit that transmits the identification information stored in the storage to the first external apparatus. The first external apparatus includes an evaluation information calculating unit that calculates and updates evaluation information of the evaluation target associated with the identification information received from the device. | 12-19-2013 |
