Abstract: A system intended to eliminate erroneous operations of the vibrator, a drawback of mobile terminals of the conventional independent vibrator method. The system comprises communication mobile terminals capable of communicating with other terminals through radio communication while they are moving; and peripheral devices designed to perform predetermined operations through radio communication between the mobile terminals and the peripheral devices. For radio communication between the mobile terminals and the peripheral devices, the apparatus employs time division multiplexing that exchanges signals by carrying data in time slots. In the time division multiplex, the mobile terminals use time slots of time bands other than those that the mobile terminals use for sending radio signals to base stations to send radio signals to the peripheral devices. This allows the mobile terminals to send radio signals to the peripheral devices without being interfered with by the radio signals transmitted by the mobile terminals to the base stations.

Abstract: A nickel powder having a composite oxide layer,
comprising lanthanum and nickel and optionally
containing an oxide of chromium, on at least a part of
the surface thereof. The nickel powder is produced by
a process comprising the steps of: bringing a solution
comprising at least one heat-decomposable nickel
compound and at least one heat-decomposable lanthanum
compound, and optionally containing at least one
heat-decomposable chromium compound to fine droplets;
and heating the droplets at a temperature above the
decomposition temperatures of these compounds to
prepare a nickel powder and, at the same time, to
deposit a composite oxide layer comprising lanthanum
and nickel and, when present, chromium oxide, in the
vicinity of the surface of the nickel powder. The
nickel powder is suitable for use in a conductor paste
to be co-fired with unfired ceramic green sheets for a
multilayer component or the like because the sintering
initiation of the powder is effectively delayed to
around the sintering initiation temperature of the
ceramic green sheets, thereby preventing the problems
caused due to excessive sintering.

Abstract: A ball valve assembly and method in which a ball valve (10) is
rotatable in a conduit section (14,16) to selectively permit fluid flow through
a bore of the ball valve to control the flow of the fluid through the conduit
section. An insert (30) is disposed in the valve bore and has a plurality of
small diameter passages (38) and a large diameter passage (36) extending
therethrough. The valve is rotated from its closed position to a first,
partially-opened position where the small diameter passages are in the flow
path of the fluid to reduce the flow rate and the noise caused by the fluid
flow. The valve can be rotated to a fully opened position in which the large
diameter passage is in the flow path of the fluid to achieve relatively high
flow rates. The insert forms an airfoil surface (32a,32b) to prevent
separation of the fluid as it passes through the large diameter passage.

Abstract: A vibration damper detects vibrations of brake pads
(3) and vibrates the pads (3) in such a way as to damp the
vibrations detected. The damper has the function of
adjusting control constants of a control circuit (10)
according to the degree of deterioration with time, of the
pads (3) due to wear so that vibrations of the pads can
always be damped in an optimum manner. A vibration
detector (7) means detects frictional vibrations of the
pads (3) and the disk rotor (4). A control signal
corresponding to the detected vibration frequency is
applied to a vibrator means (8) through the control circuit
(10). When an input signal for correction timing is
inputted from an ignition switch, a signal generator (11)
transmits a signal having a predetermined frequency to the
vibrator means (8). The resulting vibration is detected by
a signal detector (7). Based on the detected signal,
transfer functions for the control circuit (10) are
adjusted to suppress vibrations having squealing
frequencies.

Abstract: The present invention concerns an apparatus and process for removing carbon monoxide from a gas stream comprising a major portion of an inert gas and a minor portion of carbon monoxide are provided. The process involves contacting a feed gas stream (105) with at least a primary metal oxide in a reaction zone of a reactor vessel (II) at conditions effective to convert substantially all of the carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide, thus producing a purified gas stream consisting essentially of the inert gas and carbon dioxide and substantially free of carbon monoxide. This process has (inter alia) a particular application as a tertiary purification process for producing a more highly purified source of gaseous nitrogen from a source of nitrogen originally produced from a conventional membrane air separation system (101), wherein the oxygen concentration in the nitrogen stream my vary around a setpoint value, and then further (or secondarily) purified by converting excess oxygen in the nitrogen to carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide using a fuel gas/combustion process (I), wherein the carbon monoxide concentration varies due to varying oxygen concentration in the feed stream to the combustion process.
