Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a centrifugal fan capable of preventing occurrence of rotating stall.  <P>SOLUTION: In the centrifugal fan 10 in which a rotating shaft 8 of an impeller 3 is provided to the inside of an inlet box 2, a guide member 31 is provided to the inside of the inlet box so as to come into contact in a rotating direction of rotating flow in the inlet box. A flow in the inlet box becomes a rotating flow 90 taking the rotating shaft as a center. By so doing, the rotating flow velocity of the rotating flow is enhanced to reduce the flow rate at rotating stall start. The guide member is allowed to become a guide vane. A distance between the guide member and the rotating shaft is set to be approximately equated with the distance between the rotating shaft and tilted surfaces 2d, 2e or a bottom 2c with which the rotating flow in the inlet box comes into contact. The guide member 32 is provided so as to be freely movable.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method capable of judging the initial putrefaction of a perishable substance such as vegetables and fruits with high reliaility, and a device therefor.  <P>SOLUTION: A calibration formula for acquiring the respective spectral images related to a putrid part sample of the perishable substance and the health part sample to judge a putrid part by a statistical technique such as main component analysis or regression analysis using the spectral images is formed and the spectral image of the unknown sample of the same food is applied to the calibration formula to judge whether the unknown sample is the putrid part. Preferably, the calibration formula is formed using the spectral images in a region from visible light to near infrared rays. For example, food M desired to be measured is placed on a measuring stand 3 and photographed while rotated to form a whole peripheral image and this image is divided using a computer 9 and applied to the calibration formula at every divided region (sample) to judge the putrid part. The judge result is outputted as an image.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a manufacturing method of a spark plug capable of improving ignitability without increasing a production cost even when the axial direction of a composite electrode chip is extended; and to provide a spark plug.  <P>SOLUTION: The composite electrode chip 90 jointed to a ground electrode of this spark plug is formed slenderly and long by jointing a noble metal chip 92 to an intermediate member 93 (chip joint process) and by cutting its side peripheral surface 98 (chip cutting process). Since the outside diameter of a flange part 95 formed by cutting the intermediated member 93 at a non-cut part (shown by a dashed line A-A') of the side peripheral surface 98 is larger than that of the cut part of the side peripheral surface 98, a joint surface 97 is wide, so that sufficient jointing can be carried out even when the inside surface of the ground electrode is jointed by resistance-welding (chip joint process). By forming the composite electrode chip 90 with the noble metal chip 92 and the intermediate member 93, noble metal usage can be reduced.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
