Inventor: HIRAMATSU OSAMU
IPC: F04B27/08
Filed: 1997-07-14
Abstract: A piston (21) for use in a compressor that compresses gas
containing lubricating oil is disclosed. The compressor
includes a housing (11, 12, 13) having a crank chamber (15)
and cylinder bores (12a) for accommodating the pistons (21).
A swash plate (19) is located in the crank chamber (15) and is
supported on a drive shaft (16). The swash plate (19) is
operably connected to the pistons (21) by shoes (22) to
convert the rotation of the drive shaft (16) to
reciprocation of each piston (21). Each piston (21) has a
head (21c) for compressing the gas supplied to the cylinder
bore (12a) and a skirt (21a) projecting from the head (21c)
toward the crank chamber (15) and connected to the swash
plate (19). A restrictor (21e) provided on the skirt (21a)
slidably contacts an inner surface of the housing (11, 12,
13) to prevent the piston (21) from rotating in the cylinder
bore (12a). A sloped surface (28) extends along the edge of
an end face of the restrictor (21e). The sloped surface
(28) guides the oil in the crank chamber (15) toward the
shoes (22) when the piston (21) moves from a top dead center
position to a bottom dead center position.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and software for efficiently allocating discontiguous stack
space without requiring compiler changes are described. In one aspect, a method is
provided for executing a compiled function that is located in a first computer memory
stack chunk such that additional memory is allocated efficiently if a determination is
made that such additional memory is necessary for execution of the compiled function.
In one embodiment, the method includes calling a stack checking function that includes
the compiled function. A determination is made if additional memory is required for
executing the compiled function. If no additional memory is required, then the compiled
function is called and executed. However, if additional memory is necessary, then
additional memory is allocated that is discontiguous with the original memory stack.

Abstract: A process for forming a catheter tip is described
wherein a mold having an internal surface complimentary
to the desired external surface of the catheter tip is
formed such that it has two temperature zones. A first
higher temperature zone is positioned proximally of the
catheter distal tip and a lower temperature zone is
positioned distal to the higher temperature zone. A
catheter to be tipped is placed upon a mandrel or
needle and the mold is heated. Upon insertion of the
catheter and mandrel into the mold. The catheter
material softens and begins to flow within the mold.
The higher temperature portion supplies the heat
necessary to soften the catheter material and it flow
to the lower temperature zone wherein the lower
temperature causes the catheter material to become more
viscous or resolidify. Upon becoming more viscous, the
catheter material, at the very tip, acts as a dam to
prevent further flow of material thus eliminating flash
from the mold end.

Abstract: If an error range is specified with regard to the
cost beforehand, a route satisfying all of a plurality of
QoS conditions at a low cost and having a cost in the error
range is selected as an optimum route. Such a route
selection method is provided. 
     At step S1, a plurality of QoS conditions to be
satisfied are set. At step S2, an approximation error ε
is input. At step S3, a range of a cost for searching for an
optimum route is tentatively set. At step S4, an optimum
solution cost approximation procedure is executed. At
step S5, it is determined whether the cost searching range
has been sufficiently narrowed. If the narrowed cost
searching range is still too wide, then the processing
returns to the step S4 and the optimum solution cost
approximation procedure is repeated. If the cost
searching range has already been narrowed, an optimum
solution deriving procedure is executed at step S6.

having an electronegativity of 1.40 or more and (2) a

component having an adsorptivity for the hydrocarbons also
present in the exhaust gas, the loaded carrier being
provided upstream of the adsorbent in the flow direction of
the exhaust gas and having a total volume of 0.6 ℓ or more.
In this system for exhaust gas purification, the thermal
deterioration of the adsorbent is reduced because there is
used an adsorbent of higher HC desorption start temperature
and because the thermal load applied to the adsorbent is decreased
by the use of a particular means.
