Abstract: Heat exchange device (10) comprising a first tubular pipe (11) having inside it a first cylindrical cavity (12) in which a first fluid flows, and a second tubular pipe (16) in which a second fluid flows which in turn exchanges heat with the first fluid. The second tubular pipe (16) is disposed coaxial inside the first cylindrical cavity (12) of the first tubular pipe (11), creating with the first tubular pipe (11) a first annular interstice (17) for the passage of the first fluid. The device (10) is advantageously associated with a source of heating and the second tubular pipe (16) comprises inside it a second cylindrical through cavity (19), which defines another passage for the first fluid, so as to allow it to flow both outside the second tubular pipe (16), through the first annular interstice (17), and also inside the second tubular pipe (16), through the second cylindrical cavity (19).

Abstract: In a structure for mounting a filter in a compressor, a mounting member is connected to the filter. A receiving hole is formed in a housing of the compressor for receiving therein the mounting member. A first fitting portion is formed on an inner circumferential surface of a holding portion of the filter. A second fitting portion is formed on an outer circumferential surface of the mounting member for having fitting relation to the first fitting portion for an overlap distance in a radial direction of the receiving hole. When the mounting member is received in the receiving hole with the fitting relation, the filter is disposed in a fluid passage of the housing. A clearance having a dimension is formed between an outer circumferential surface of the holding portion and an inner circumferential surface of the receiving hole. Minimum value of the dimension is smaller than the overlap distance.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention may provide a module for detecting a vehicle crash. The module (100) includes a housing (110) mounted to a vehicular frame member at one end portion thereof. The module includes first and second rods (121, 122) housed in the housing. The first rod (121) is contacted to the frame member at one end thereof through the one end portion of the housing. The second rod (122) is contacted to the opposite end of the first rod and being disposed between the first rod and the opposite end portion of the housing. The module includes first and second sensors (131, 132) mounted to the first and second rods respectively for detecting a crash by sequentially measuring stress wave caused by the crash. The first sensor (131) detects a stress wave propagating through the first rod and outputting a signal. The second sensor (132) detects a stress wave propagating through the second rod and outputting a signal. The module includes a biasing member (140) disposed between the second rod and the opposite end portion of the housing for biasing the first and second rods toward the frame member. A magnitude of impedance of the first rod is larger than that of the second rod and the magnitude of impedance of the second rod is larger than that of the biasing member. The module can remarkably reduce the elapsed time required for detecting a crash by measuring a stress wave, which propagates very rapidly through a vehicular frame member.

IPC: F41A21/34
Filed: 2008-09-17
Abstract: A noise and flash suppressor for firearms uses the blast and plume characteristics inherent to the ballistic discharge process to develop a new two-step controlled surge and purge system centered around advanced mixer-ejector concepts. The blast surge noise is reduced by controlling the flow expansion, and the flash effects are reduced by controlling inflow and outflow gas purges. In the preferred embodiment, suppressor vent holes are convergently contoured to better reduce the blast surge. Preferably a two-stage supersonic mixer/ejector system, in combination with adjacent vent holes in the suppressor housing and a divergent entrance nozzle, is used to control or eliminate the external Mach disk, while rapidly mixing and diluting the propellant with purged gases. A diffuser downstream of the mixer/ejector system further increases ejector performance and pumping. The pumped gases are used to self-clean and cool the suppressor.

Abstract: It is determined whether or not the first tool identification information that is output from a robot control device (220), and that indicates a present tool and the second tool identification information for detecting and identifying a tool attached to the robot are unequal to each other. The position coordinates of the taught reference point in an actual space of the robot occurring at the time when the unequalness therebetween is first detected are set as reference coordinates, and a region that contains the reference coordinates is set as a predetermined region. If the position coordinates of the taught reference point have come to exist outside the predetermined region during a period during which it is determined that the foregoing two pieces of information are unequal, an emergency stop signal for causing the robot to be in a safe state is output.
