Abstract: In order to remove polluted soil, modular containers (10) are driven into the soil, each container having a closed upper end, vertical side walls (11-14), a bottom opening (15) and means (18, 25) for causing the closure of the bottom opening. The containers (10) are driven in a grid pattern, being positioned side by side in such a way that the side walls (11-14) of at least one of the containers arc surrounded by side walls of other similar modular containers. The driving process causes the containers to be at least partially filled with polluted soil introduced through the bottom ends (15). The containers which are surrounded by other containers are lifted with their bottom ends closed by the actuation of the closing means, which can include a closable wall (18) and/or a cooling coil (25) for freezing the polluted soil held in the bottom part of the container.

Abstract: The compressor has a differential pressure type flow rate detector that obtains the pressure in an upstream passage and the pressure in a downstream passage to detect a refrigerant flow rate within a refrigerant passage. The detector has an accommodation chamber, and a partition body slidably accommodated within the accommodation chamber. The partition body comparts the accommodation chamber into a high pressure chamber to which the pressure in the upstream passage is introduced, and a low pressure chamber to which the pressure in the downstream passage is introduced. The compressor has an oil separator having an oil introduction passage connected to the oil separating chamber and a high pressure introduction passage introducing the pressure in the upstream passage to the high pressure chamber. The oil introduction passage introduces the oil separated from the refrigerant by the oil separator to a pressure zone other than a discharge pressure zone.

Abstract: The liquid container includes a liquid storage portion that stores a liquid, a liquid feed portion that connects with the liquid consuming apparatus and feeds the liquid to the liquid consuming apparatus when the liquid container is attached to the liquid consuming apparatus, a liquid sensing chamber defining portion having a liquid inlet communicating with the liquid storage portion and a liquid outlet communicating with the liquid feed portion and that defines a liquid sensing chamber that fluctuates in volume according to a differential between external atmospheric pressure and internal pressure, a bias force member that exerts a bias force on the liquid sensing chamber from an inner side in a direction of expansion of volume of the liquid sensing chamber, and a sensor that senses if a volume of the liquid sensing chamber is reduced to a prescribed volume value. A pressure of liquid present in the liquid sensing chamber declines as an amount of liquid in the liquid storage portion becomes lower. The bias force is established such that if the amount of liquid in the liquid storage portion is equal to or greater than a prescribed amount, the liquid sensing chamber overcomes the atmospheric pressure to assume a volume exceeding the prescribed volume value, whereas if the amount of liquid in the liquid storage portion is less than the prescribed amount, the liquid sensing chamber yields to the atmospheric pressure to assume a volume equal to or less than the prescribed volume value.
