First, an emission amount of nitrogen oxide can be decreased to zero as much as possible and, an emission amount of carbon monoxide is decreased to a permissible range. Second, energy saving by combustion at a low air ratio close to 1.0 is realized. Third, air ratio control is performed stably in a combustion region at a low air ratio. Provided is a boiler, including: a premixed burner; a water pipe group for, by heat exchanging with a gas produced by the premixed burner, suppressing a temperature of the gas to thereby suppress a concentration of nitrogen oxide to a predetermined value or less; an oxidation catalyst for oxidizing carbon monoxide contained in the gas after the passage through the water pipe group by oxygen and for reducing nitrogen oxide contained therein by carbon monoxide; and an air-ratio adjusting device for adjusting an air ratio of the premixed burner, in which: the premixed burner and the water pipe group have such characteristics that when the air ratio is a set air ratio, a concentration ratio of oxygen, nitrogen oxides, and carbon monoxide in the gas on a primary side of the oxidation catalyst becomes a predetermined concentration ratio; the oxidation catalyst has such characteristics that when the concentration ratio is a predetermined concentration ratio, a concentration of nitrogen oxides on a secondary side of the oxidation catalyst is substantially zero while a concentration of carbon monoxide is decreased to substantially zero or a predetermined value or less; and the predetermined concentration ratio is kept to be constant by being controlled to the set air ratio by the air-ratio adjusting device.

An object of the present invention is to determine novel means of activating plants; more particularly, means of controlling plant growth, such as means of promoting growth, means of controlling dormancy, means of imparting tolerance against stress for plants (dryness, high or low temperatures, osmotic pressure, etc.), and means of preventing aging. The present inventors have found that the above object can be achieved by providing plant activators containing, as an active ingredient, C4-C24 ketol fatty acids, in particular, 9-hydroxy-10-oxo-12(Z),15(Z)-octadecadienoic acid.

The present invention allows an optimal quantity of refrigerant to be quickly and easily charged into the refrigeration device. In a refrigeration device that includes a refrigerant cycle circuit (A) connecting an outdoor unit (X) and indoor units (Y) via refrigerant lines (6), (7), a refrigerant charging device (10) that charges refrigerant to the refrigerant cycle circuit (A) in the cooling operational state is detachably connected to the liquid side refrigerant line (6) (the high pressure liquid line during cooling operations) that links the outdoor unit (X) with the indoor units (Y). In this way, when the refrigerant charging device (10) and the liquid line refrigerant line (6) are linked together and the refrigerant cycle circuit (A) is in the cooling operational state, refrigerant charging can be carried out from the refrigerant charging device (10) to the refrigerant cycle circuit (A) via the liquid side refrigerant line (6) (the high pressure liquid line).

There is provided a conveyor capable of carrying out attachment and detachment of a portion of carrying an article easily and safely by a simple constitution in cleaning or the like and preventing parts from falling in attaching and detaching thereof. A support unit is provided with a carry unit and a motor unit respectively attachably and detachably. The carry unit is attachable to and detachable from the support unit in an upward direction. An output shaft of the motor unit can be connected to and detached from a drive roller of the carry unit by first and second connecting pieces. When a fixed state of the motor unit is released by releasing clamps, connection between the connecting peices is released and a state of fixing the carry unit to the support unit is released by releasing clamps, so that the carry unit can be removed in the upward direction.

A mechanism, of a camera, for surely resetting a microcomputer at time of switching among a plurality of types of power sources. In the mechanism in which a manual operation dial for switching among the plurality of types of power sources is rotated to slide an electrical contact piece over a predetermined electrically conductive/non-conductive pattern so that a desired power source type is selected, an electric conductivity/non-conductivity between an IC and a negative terminal changes, immediately before an electric power across a positive terminal and the negative terminal is changed from “ON” to “OFF”, and immediately after the electric power is changed from “OFF” to “ON”. In association with the change, the IC outputs a reset signal to the microcomputer of the camera.

摘要:
This invention relates to lens type functional retroreflective sheeting having retroreflective regions and visual functionality presenting regions, the retroreflective sheeting comprising:a base sheet consisting of a support comprising a functional resin layer containing a functional pigment having light-storing or fluorescent properties, microspherical lens-embedding regions in which microspherical lenses are densely distributed on the surface of the functional resin layer of the support so as to form a mono-layer, and microspherical lens-free regions in which substantially no microspherical lens is embedded and the functional resin layer is exposed;a transparent protective film disposed above the microspherical lens-bearing surface of the base sheet; andbonds at which said base sheet and said transparent protective film are partly bonded together. This lens type functional retroreflective sheeting not only afford good visibility to viewers positioned in the direction of the light source (e.g., automobile drivers), but also afford good visibility at night to drivers and pedestrians positioned in directions different from the that of the light source.
