Thermistor chips are produced by preparing thermistor bodies each having outer electrodes formed on its end parts and dipping them in a solvent so as to melt away exposed surface portions of the thermistor body. In order to efficiently adjust their resistance values so as to produce thermistor chips with resistance values having only small variations from a target value, the resistance value between the outer electrodes are measured for each and they are divided into ranks according to the measured resistance values, and the dipping process is carried out differently for different ranks such that different amounts of the thermistor body material will be melted away.

Thermistor chips are produced by preparing ceramic green sheets, applying an inorganic material such as a glass paste on these green sheets in areas including lines along which they are to be later cut, stacking a plurality of these green sheets one on top of another to obtain a stacked body, obtaining chips by cutting this stacked body along those pre-specified lines and subjecting these chips to a firing process to obtain sintered bodies, and forming outer electrodes on mutually opposite end surfaces of these sintered bodies. A thermistor chip thus produced has a thermistor element having outer electrodes on its mutually opposite end surfaces, and diffused layers of an inorganic material having a higher specific resistance than material of the thermistor element. These diffused layers are formed proximally to externally exposed surfaces of the thermistor element.

A method for debubbling a liquid includes flowing the liquid into an inlet, applying high energy ultrasonic waves to the liquid inside the inlet, introducing the liquid into a debubbling chamber through the inlet and applying low-energy ultrasonic waves to the liquid in the debubbling chamber to obtain a debubbled liquid. An ultrasonic debubbling apparatus comprises a medium chamber containing a heat and ultrasonic wave transmitting medium, a debubbling chamber inside the medium chamber, an introducing pipe arranged to extend a predetermined length into the medium chamber so as to introduce the liquid to be debubbled into the debubbling chamber, a primary ultrasonic transducer for applying high energy ultransonic waves to the liquid in the introducing pipe and a secondary ultrasonic transducer for applying low energy ultrasonic waves to the liquid in the debubbling chamber.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an anorectic containing a compound having a DGAT inhibitory activity (DGAT1 inhibitory activity) or a prodrug thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient. The present invention provides an anti-obesity drug which is an anorectic that does not directly act on the central nervous system and is satisfactory in terms of activity, and a therapeutic strategy for preventing or treating obesity.
摘要:
A gasification and melting furnace for wastes has a vertically movable furnace center lance disposed along the axis of the furnace and adapted to blow off a combustion sustaining gas downward into the furnace. One or more stages of upper tuyeres are disposed so that the angle at which the combustion sustaining gas is blown off into the furnace is displaced from the furnace axis direction, and one or more stages of lower tuyeres projected into the furnace so as to blow off a combustion sustaining gas or both combustion sustaining gas and fuel toward the furnace axis. Formation of a low temperature region in the furnace are prevented and a fire spot is concentrated on the combustion of wastes. As a result, molten slag and various metals, as well as an energy gas, which are high in added value, can be recovered stably.

摘要:
Disclosed is an integrated uninterruptable power supply (UPS) for a computer powered by a commercial power supply. The uninterruptable power supply is operative to feed power from a normal power supply to a first load to be operated at a first DC voltage and a second DC voltage that is lower than the first DC voltage. If a characteristic of the normal power supply is deviated from a defined value, the UPS of the present invention will continue feeding power from a battery power supply to the first load. The uninterruptable power supply includes a power supply unit, having an output connected to the first load, for converting a voltage of the normal power supply to the first DC voltage and for outputting the same. The UPS also includes a first voltage converter having an input connected to the battery and an output connected to the first load, for converting an output voltage of the battery to the second DC voltage and for outputting the same. If the normal power supply is within the defined value, the first voltage converter waits in a no-load state.
