A trigger switch TS includes a trigger 1 receiving a press through an operation of an operator to be movable to a deepest position in a press direction. The trigger includes: a base shaft member 11, to which a trigger cap 10 is removably attached; and a limiting member 14, supported by the base shaft member to be operable, and able to limit a movement of the trigger. In the trigger where the trigger cap 10 is attached to the base shaft member, if a first press is received, the movement is limited at a limited position not arriving at the deepest position through the limiting member in a limited state. With removal of the received first press, the limiting member transitions to from the limited state to an unlimited state and, if a second press is received following the removal, it is possible to move to the deepest position.

Abstract
This learning device performs machine learning of a process for converting an input posture of a user into an output posture of an operation target that has a structure different from the structure of a posture input part of the user. The learning device comprises: a data acquisition unit which acquires teacher data including input motion data that is time-series changes in the input posture and output motion data that is time-series changes in the output posture representing an operation corresponding to the input motion data; and a learning processing unit which performs learning processing by using, among the input motion data and the output motion data, the pair data of the input posture and the output posture at a time point at which the input motion data and the output motion data correspond to each other, and generates a trained model that uses the input posture as an input and the corresponding output posture as an output.
When a step-up operation is performed, a control device of a power converter outputs a first reference control signal for turning ON/OFF a first switching element to the first switching element and a third switching element of a first full bridge circuit, outputs a first reference inverted signal with an inverted phase with respect to the first reference control signal to a second switching element and a fourth switching element, extends a period in which at least the second switching element and the fourth switching element of a second switching leg are simultaneously OFF such that the period is longer than a period in which the first switching element and the third switching element of a first switching leg are simultaneously OFF.
