Abstract: The synthesis gas generator incudes combustion and quenching chambers. Gases are formed by partial oxidation in the combustion chamber. These are quenched, cooled and cleaned in the remainder of the unit. In this novel design, separate combustion (3) and quenching (7) chambers are connected by a duct (6). At the gas inlet region of the quench chamber, tuyere-like blast pipes (10, 11) are terminated by quenching nozzles (9). These distribute finely-divided quench medium (8, e.g. water) into the product gas. The quench zone is followed by a gas mixing zone (7a). The quench chamber outlet (20) is conical and discharges over a water bath (21). The gas is returned through 180 degrees just beyond the cone termination, and leaves by the outlet connections (23).

Abstract: A base (2) is fixed to a work table (31) of a machine tool
(30). By adjusting the position of a mounting member (3) corresponding
to the base (2), the position of a work (W) fixed to a
mounting surface (3a) of the mounting member (3) is adjusted.
The work (W), together with an X-axis moving table (43) of the
machine tool (30), is moved by a very small amount in a state
where a test indicator (46) mounted on a tool head (44) is
brought into contact with a work surface (Wa) of the work (W).
An operator grasps an inclination of the work surface (Wa)
relative to the X-axis while seeing the displacement of a
pointer of the test indicator (46). When a first execute switch
(67) is turned on after an amount of correction required to
cancel the inclination is manually set by a first correction
amount adjusting switch (64), first driving and fixing members
(4A, 4B, 4C) drive the mounting member (3) by an amount contributing
to cancellation of the inclination of the work surface
(Wa) relative to the X-axis. An inclination of the work
surface (Wa) relative to the Y-axis is corrected by the same
operation, to correct an inclination of a plane (Wb) perpendicular
to the work surface (Wa) relative to the X-axis (Fig.
1).

IPC: H02H3/08
Filed: 1999-06-14
Abstract: When directional overcurrent protection relays (22, 32) are included at the load end of a set
of parallel feeders (20, 30) fed from an AC power source (10), a minimum fault-current
threshold is specified based on the potential of a phase-to-phase fault at the source to cause
a relay to operate misleadingly. This threshold is, for plain (transformerless) feeders,
approximately 50% and, for transformer feeders, approximately 85% (nominally 86.7%) of
rated pre-fault load current. These thresholds can, however, be ignored if, according to a
second aspect of the invention, the relay outputs are processed in a 2-out-of-3 circuit (91),
so that a relay on one phase will only operate its associated circuit breaker if a relay on
another phase has also operated, a condition which has been found not to obtain in the case
of a source fault.

Abstract: An ink supplying apparatus is provided that houses two ink packages in an
upper portion thereof, and supplies inks to print heads. Waste ink drawn by the purge
operation is injected into a first waste liquid chamber via an injection opening, and
then absorbed into an absorber. When the first waste liquid chamber becomes filled
with waste ink, waste ink flows into the second waste liquid chamber via a vent hole,
and then into the third waste liquid chamber. Therefore, even if the first waste liquid
chamber becomes filled with waste ink, ink will not leak out. A small ink cartridge
houses two ink packages. Since each ink cartridge has two separate ink packages
storing individual inks, the amount of ink to be wasted at the time of ink cartridge
replacement is reduced and, therefore, the operating cost is reduced.

Abstract: A method for quantifying communication performance in a
communication network comprising computer systems communicatively
coupled to each other with communication equipment. In one embodiment, the
present invention measures performance statistics associated with data packets
sent and received by the computer systems. First, this embodiment applies a
first time-stamp to data packets sent by a computer system over the
communication equipment, and applies a second time-stamp to data packets
received by the computer system over the communication equipment. Second,
in this embodiment the present invention correlates a first data packet sent by a
first computer system over the communication network to a second data packet
sent by a second computer system over the communication network. Third, in
this embodiment the present invention computes a difference between a first
time-stamp of the first data packet and a second time-stamp of the second data
packet. Next, this embodiment calculates performance statistics measured on
the difference and stores the performance statistics in a memory unit within the
first computer system. Finally, in this embodiment the first computer system
reports the stored performance statistics to a central computer system.

Abstract: In a printer (1) of the present invention, an EEPROM
that carries out sequential access and has a small storage
capacity is applied for storage element (80) mounted on
both black and color ink cartridges (107K, 107F). Data
relating to each ink cartridge (107K, 107F), for example,
data on remaining quantities of respective inks in the ink
cartridge (107K, 107F), are stored as 8-bit data in the
storage element (80) of the ink cartridge (107K, 107F). A
print controller (40) incorporated in the printer (1) has
an EEPROM (90), in which the data relating to the ink
cartridges (107K, 107F) are stored as 32-bit data are used
for the subsequent processing. In the case of replacement
of one ink cartridge (107K, 107F) with another, on the
other hand, the 8-bit data are used for the subsequent
processing. This arrangement of the invention enables the
data relating to the ink cartridges (107K, 107F), for
example, the data on the remaining quantities of the
respective inks in the ink cartridges (107K, 107F) to be
processed accurately even when a storage unit of a small
