Patent EP-0626521-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FUKANO YOSHIHIRO C O SMC K K
IPC: F15B13/00
Filed: 1994-05-10
Abstract: In order to provide a manifold valve in which the overall height thereof can be lowered, a manifold base (10) is constituted by a fitting portion (18) with tube fittings (26,28) being attached to output openings (22,24) which open in a vertical direction on one side surface of the fitting portion (18), and a base portion (20) having a height lower than that of the fitting portion (18). A directional control valve (12) is constituted by a main valve (60) and a pilot valve (62) which is displaced upwardly from the main valve and attached at a height approximately equal to a difference in height between the fitting portion (18) and the base portion (20) from a lower surface of the main valve (60). The main valve (60) is disposed on the base portion (20), and the pilot valve (62) is disposed on or adjacent the fitting portion (18), wherein the directional control valve (12) is integrated with the manifold base (10). Since the height of the base portion (20) can be lowered owing to the displacement of the attachment position of the pilot valve (62) with respect to the main valve (60), the entire height and length of the manifold valve can be reduced.

Abstract: Wall material has a favorable sterilizing effect against Pseudomonous aeruginosa or MRSA (methicillin resistant staphylococcus aereus) which are main germs for hospital infection. The wall material having a sterilizing effect is characterized in that composite polymer emulsion including acrylic ester copolymer as main constituent and ceramic powder are mixed into mortar. Such wall material can drastically reduce not only Pseudomonous aeruginosa but also MRSA due to the favorable sterilizing effect of the composite polymer emulsion and the ceramic powder.

Abstract: The electrode-less high pressure discharge lamp has a lamp vessel (1) which is surrounded by an electric coil (2) having turns (3). End portions (4, 5) of the coil are electrically connected to current conductors (6, 7). The turns of the coil are supported by aluminium nitride (8), which is in thermal contact with the current conductors. There is a good heat transfer from the coil to the conductors, keeping the coil relatively cool and efficient. The coil does screen the lamp vessel to a small extent only, thereby improving the lamp efficacy.

Abstract: A weighing machine, such as a combinational weighing machine, has scale cells (31...3m) and a plurality of dummy cells (4 1 ...4 n ) installed on the same floor. The scale cells (3 1 ...3 m ) output weight signals (W 1 ...W m ) corresponding to the weights of objects being loaded. The mode of vibrations of the floor is detected from dummy signals (D 1 ...D n ) from the dummy cells (4 1 ...4 n ), vertical displacements of the floor at the positions of the scale cells are calculated, and their effects are eliminated from the weight signals. Those of the scale cells not selected after a cycle of combinational calculations can be used as dummy cells in the next cycle. Effects of the floor vibrations can be eliminated more accurately if the differences in sensitivity among the cells due to physical characteristics of the individual cells and/or due to the different loads on them can be taken into account either by feedback calculation or by a formula. A control device may also be provided such that the effects of floor vibrations are ignored if they are sufficiently weak.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un système de fenêtrage à indépendance de résolution, qui utilise un procédé de réalisation des opérations de fenêtrage directement dans l'espace d'appareil pour un système graphique qui spécifie tous les dessins dans l'espace de coordonnées. Les effets de redimensionnement pour restituer un objet en différents endroits sur la grille des coordonnées sont absorbés dans les bords des fenêtres, ce qui permet de déplacer les contenus des fenêtres sans avoir à les redessiner. On peut déplacer la fenêtre sans la redessiner même lorsque la résolution de l'appareil dans lequel est affichée la fenêtre diffère de la résolution source du système de restitution. En outre, les contenus des fenêtres sont dessinés par rapport aux coordonnées de la partie supérieure gauche de la fenêtre, afin de fournir à chaque fenêtre sa propre grille d'appareil, indépendamment de la position de la fenêtre sur l'appareil. La présente invention décrit: un procédé pour afficher une fenêtre independamment de la résolution de l'appareil d'affichage; un procédé pour restituer une multitude de fenêtres se chevauchant à résolutions indépendamment arbitraires; ainsi qu'un procédé pour faire défiler une grille de coordonnées finie indépendamment de la résolution de l'appareil d'affichage. Ces procédés peuvent être utilisés seuls ou combinés entre eux pour améliorer notablement les images graphiques affichées sur l'appareil d'affichage.
