Abstract:
An exhaust manifold (4), which is joined to a catalyst container (3) for accommodating a catalyst (2) with a tilt angle, includes: a plurality of branch pipes (6a, 6b, 6c, 6d) communicating with corresponding discharge ports (E1, E2, E3, E4) of an engine; an exhaust collecting portion (7) where the plurality of branch pipes are collected; and a partition plate (8) dividing the interior of the exhaust collecting portion (7). The partition plate (8) is cut away to provide a cut (9) at an end surface portion (8A) located toward the catalyst (2).
Abstract:
Friction disks of a clutch are axially positioned and supported relative to the drum of the clutch, using a tapered snap ring. Furthermore, an engaging member coupled with a ring gear is axially positioned and supported by sandwiching between the tapered snap ring and another snap ring. Accordingly, the structure accommodates and supports receipt of hydraulic pressure, as well as thrust force of the ring gear.
Abstract:
A separator, a pair of polarized electrodes, gaskets holding the separator and the polarized electrodes from their sides, and a pair of the collectors provided in contact with the outer surfaces of polarized electrodes and gaskets are provided in an electric double layer capacitor. The collectors are a lamination having a conductive film formed by coating a conductive resin solution containing a conductive material to at least one surface of copper foil.
Abstract:
An absorption refrigeration system incorporating a novel solution flow control is disclosed. The solution flow control includes a sensor, preferably in the form of a float which senses the level of the solution in the absorber of the system. The signal from the level sensor is utilized to position a valve for controlling the flow of weak solution in such a manner that the solution flow increases/decreases as the level of the solution in the absorber decreases/increases. The solution control not only provides improved efficiency of the refrigeration system but also protects the system from the risk of crystallization of the solution. In one embodiment, a compact solution control is fully enclosed by an air-tight shell of the absorber and comprises a float, a rod mechanically and drivingly coupling the float with a solution valve so that the buoyancy of the float directly positions the valve. This arrangement does not need to meet the requirement of having an air tight structure and assures a long life in use.
Abstract:
Novel penicillins and cephalosporins and non-toxic salts thereof, which contain a mono- or di-oxo- or thioxo-piperazino(thio)carbonylamino group in molecule. These compounds are valuable antibacterial compounds for use in mammals including man. This disclosure relates to such compounds and a process for the preparation thereof.
Abstract:
A method for treating a host mammal having a decreased immunity, comprising administering to said host mammal an immunostimulating effective amount of the deproteinized extract from the poison pouch contents of bee B-T, is disclosed.
Abstract:
An antibacterial composition for medical use comprising 6-[D(-)-.alpha.-(4-ethyl-2,3-dioxo-1-piperazinylcarbonylamino)phenylacetamido]penicillanic acid or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a .beta.-lactamase-inhibiting penicillin or cephalosporin. The composition exhibits synergistic effect which is much greater than the sum of antibacterial effects of each component used alone.
Abstract:
A 7.alpha.-methoxycephalosporin represented by the general formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 represents a hydrogen atom or a carboxyl-protecting group; R.sup.2 represents an organic group linked to the carbon atom through an oxygen or sulfur atom; R.sup.3 represents a lower alkyl group; n is 0, 1 or 2; A represents a hydrogen atom or a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group; and B represents a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, cycloalkadienyl or heterocyclic group, and a salt thereof. These compounds have a broad antibacterial spectrum, high resistance to .beta.-lactamase produced from bacteria, and an effective antibacterial activity against clinical isolates of bacteria.
Abstract:
Novel 7.alpha.-methoxy-cephalosporins and non-toxic salts thereof, which contain a di-oxo-piperazinyl-carbonylamino group in molecule. These compounds are valuable antibacterial compounds for use in mammals including man. This disclosure relates to such compounds and methods for producing the same.
Abstract:
Novel bis-type penicillins containing a (thio)acylureido group in the molecule, which are valuable antibacterial compounds for use in mammals including a human being.This disclosure relates to such compounds and a process for the preparation thereof.
