Abstract: A multi-band surface-mounted antenna (1) is formed by disposing a feeding
element (3) and a non-feeding element (4) with a distance therebetween on a dielectric base
member (2). The feeding element (3) is formed by extending a feeding radiation electrode
(7) from a feeding terminal (5). The non-feeding element (4) is a branched element formed
by branching and extending a first radiation electrode (8) and a second radiation electrode
(9) of the non-feeding side from a ground terminal side (6). The single surface-mounted
antenna (1) includes the three radiation electrodes (7,8,9). Thus, the antenna (1) can be
easily adapted to multi-bands. In addition, the resonance waves of the three radiation
electrodes (7,8,9) can be controlled mutually independently. As a result, only a frequency
band selected from a plurality of required frequency bands is brought into a multi-resonance
state so that the frequency band can be broadened.

Abstract: In a heat storage tank (100), first and second valve
bodies (119, 120) are disposed to open and close first and
second valve ports (119a, 120a), respectively. A density of
the first valve body is made larger than that of cooling
water, and a density of the second valve body is made smaller
than that of cooling water. When the dynamical pressure due
to cooling water is applied to the first and second valve
bodies, the first and second valve ports are opened by the
first and second valve bodies. On the other hand, when the
dynamical pressure is not applied to the first and second
valve bodies, the first valve body closes the first valve port
by the weight of the first valve body, and the second valve
body closes the second valve port by the buoyancy.

Abstract: An ultrasonic flowmeter is disclosed that detects the speed, amount, and composition of a
two-phase flow travelling through it. One or more ultrasonic paths corresponding to ultrasonic
transducers are positioned to detect the velocity and speed of sound through one phase of the two-phase
flow. A second ultrasonic path is positioned to travel through the one phase of the two-phase
flow, but to reflect off the interface between of interface of the two phases. A third ultrasonic path
is positioned to travel through the second phase of the two-phase flow, but once again reflects off
the interface between the two phases. The information of transit times for ultrasonic signals along
these ultrasonic paths provides the speed of the two-phase flows, the amount of the two-phase
flows, and the compositions of the two-phase flows. A quality assurance check ensures that the
measurements are accurate.

Abstract: A process is described for handling fish, particularly farmed fish, from its delivery to the gutting thereof, whereby the fish is led/stimulated to move in the desired direction by exploiting its natural instincts, thereby to reduce stress. The method is characterized in that the fish in a closed system is induced to move through the following handling stages: from a starting unit, such as a holding enclosure, a wellboat or receiving tank, where the water temperature may optionally be lowered to about 10 DEG C, the fish is brought on land by being induced to swim into an elevator or fish conveyor, from the elevator/conveyor the fish is brought, optionally after intermediate storage, to a chilling tank where it is chilled to a predetermined core temperature, normally down to 1  DEG C in the course of 20 to 100 minutes; after the fish has reached the desired core temperature, it is subjected to the effect of an anaesthetic; the fish is then cut for bleeding and conducted to a bleeding tank, which has a water temperature about 1  DEG C higher than the water in the chilling tank; where the tanks have adjustable water temperature and equipment for the supplying of optionally chilled water, for supplying of anaesthetic, optionally for the supplying of oxygen and for the recirculation and filtration of water, and where the basins and tanks holding the fish optionally are provided with colour and light so that the fish assumes a colour in its exterior membranes that is desirable for the relevant species of fish, and where to the cooling water during the movement of the fish through the tanks to the stage where it is cut for bleeding, there is optionally added a bactericide and/or parasiticide for the purpose of reducing the bacteria count on the surface membranes of the fish and/or to remove parasites, and optionally for the supplying of additional additives, such as flavour additives and/or carbohydrates. <IMAGE>
