Patent EP-1339120-A3 (EP)
Inventor: CISAR ALAN J
IPC: C25B9/17
Filed: 1998-09-10
Abstract: A fuel cell design for use at low pressure. The invention has a reduced number of component parts to reduce fabrication costs, as well as a simpler design that permits the size of the system to be reduced at the same time as performance is being improved. In the present design, an adjacent anode and cathode pair are fabricated using a common conductive element, with that conductive element serving to conduct the current from one cell to the adjacent one. This produces a small and simple system suitable for operating with gas fuels or alternatively directly with liquid fuels, such as methanol, dimethoxymethane, or trimethoxymethane. The use of these liquid fuels permits the storage of more energy in less volume while at the same time eliminating the need for handling compressed gases which further simplifies the fuel cell system. The electrical power output of the design of this invention can be further increased by adding a passage for cooling the stack through contact with a coolant. In particular the invention relates to a low pressure gas electrode, comprising an electrically conducting substrate wherein the substrate comprises at least two opposite faces; a plurality of openings allowing passage from one face to an opposite face, wherein the openings encompass between about 10% and about 90% of the total area of the substrate and an electrically conductive porous material bound to the substrate comprised of a electrically conductive component and a binding component.

Abstract: A method of detecting a magnetic thread comprises
causing relative movement between the thread and an array
of magnetic heads (2a-2l), each head (2a-2l) generates a
signal upon detecting a portion of the thread. The arrival
of a thread at one of the heads is detected, that head
being denoted a primary head, and the head on each side a
secondary head. Output signals from the primary and
secondary heads are monitored to generate a representation
of the thread, and the magnitude of the signals from the
primary and secondary heads are compared such that if the
magnitude of the output signal from a secondary head
exceeds that from the primary head, the primary and
secondary heads are reallocated accordingly.

periphery of the waste toner collection opening 55, so that
the toner discharging mechanism 32 that has entered in the waste
toner chamber 47 is covered by the guide member 56 from above.

Abstract: In a wireless telephone of a mobile communication system the channel quality of a vacant
channel is measured during reception in a first channel by transferring PLL data to the PLL
prior to the slot in which the measurement is effected. The wireless telephone repeats the
measurement of the channel qualities of the vacant channel and the current channel and
transmits the results of the measurements until it receives a message from the base station
commanding that the MAHO operation should be terminated.

Abstract: When an inner wall (3a) of a cylinder head (3) is viewed along an axis of a cylinder (1a), a line that passes through a center of a fuel injection port (17) and a center of a valve opening adjacent to the injection port is defined as a first line, and a line that is perpendicular to the first line is defined as a second line. A notch (18a-1,18a-2) is formed in a part of the inner wall that defines the injection port. Specifically, when the inner wall is divided into sections by the second line, the notch is located in the section in which the adjacent opening exists. The notch (18a-1,18a-2) is also displaced from the first line. Therefore, a sufficient thickness of the section corresponding to the valve seats of intake and exhaust valves are easily ensured.

Abstract: This invention aims at effectively preventing reception of illicit authentic code information from a user terminal without requesting any heavy load on the administrator. To accomplish this, an authentication system creates first display data on the basis of second display data required to display a form without any authentication code input field, and script information required to additionally display the authentication code input field on the form, and provides it to the user terminal. Information input to the authentication code input field is received from the user terminal, and it is authenticated if the information is authentic. For example, when a predetermined condition is met (e.g., the number of times of reception of unauthentic information is equal to or smaller than a predetermined value), the first display data is transmitted to the user terminal. On the other hand, when the predetermined condition is not met, the second display data is transmitted to the user terminal.
