Patent EP-1170284-A3 (EP)
Inventor: FUKUNAKA TADASHI
IPC: B01J19/00
Filed: 2001-07-02
Abstract: Urea is prepared by reacting ammonia and carbon dioxide in an apparatus
comprising a vertical condensation and synthesis column (1) and a stripper (21), to provide a
urea synthesis solution comprising urea, unreacted ammonia, unreacted carbon dioxide
and water. The urea synthesis solution is transferred from the top of the vertical
condensation and synthesis column (1) to the top of a stripper (21). Carbon dioxide is
introduced into the bottom of the stripper (21) and contacted with the urea synthesis
solution, thereby separating the unreacted ammonia and the unreacted carbon dioxide
from the urea, and providing a mixed gas comprising ammonia, carbon dioxide and
water. The mixed gas is transferred into the bottom of the vertical condensation and
synthesis column (1), where it is reacted with liquid ammonia injected into the bottom and
a middle of the vertical condensation and synthesis column (1). The mixed gas and liquid
ammonia are condensed and react to form urea. Uncondensed gases are absorbed in
an absorbing medium, which is subsequently recycled to the bottom of the vertical
condensation and synthesis column (1).

Abstract: A method and display are disclosed in which a representation of a 3D model is
provided for presentation as a 3D image. The image may be presented under an
array of spherical or lenticular microlenses so that different images are presented
at different viewing angles. The images are rendered using a set of orthographic

intensive processing associated with generation of simulated camera images and
can also give improved results as compared to prior art multiview images.

Abstract: The stent has a proximal portion in a main segment which incorporates
a series of angulated struts and flexible omega-shaped connectors. The distal
segment of the main portion of the stent is of a variable design. The distal
portion of the main leg is designed to have added flexibility without
compromising the expansion diameter of the stent. The distal portion of the
side branch segment is designed to offer more flexibility to accommodate
challenging side branch angles. The main portion of the stent and its distal
side branch portion are connected by a hinge connector firmly joined to both
the main branch and the distal branch. This hinge connector is extremely
flexible and allows for multiple variations in the vasculature of the patient. The
particular delivery system used with this bifurcated stent encompasses a
double-balloon system. The first balloon is placed in the main segment
along its entire length. The second balloon is placed within the side branch.
Thus, when the stent tracks (in other words, is passed) along the artery, the
segmented distal portion of the stent is able to fit nicely into the side branch
of the vasculature.

Abstract: The object of the invention is to provide an error amplification
circuit for matching an output voltage from a DC-DC converter with its
target value, wherein the DC-DC converter is prevented from generating
excess output even when the reference voltage provided as the target value
varies stepwise. 
     An error amplification circuit is configured by cascading
together an operational amplification circuit 6a and a PI control circuit
6b, both having a fixed operation point (ground potential), so that even
when the reference voltage V REF  is varied stepwise, the operation points
of the circuits 6a and 6b maintain the ground potential. The above object
