Abstract:
An airbag device configured to be disposed in an instrument panel includes an inflator configured to generate gas, and an airbag that includes a gas inlet through which the gas from the inflator is introduced and is inflated and deployed in a bag shape toward a vehicle room side by the gas introduced from the inflator through the gas inlet. The airbag has, in an upper portion thereof, an extra length in a front and rear direction of a vehicle and is folded in a housed state after experiencing a folded state in an approximately planar fashion such that the extra length portion is tucked into the airbag toward the rear of the vehicle.
Abstract:
A facility working apparatus includes objects (1), a management apparatus (2), and an exterior information source (3) such as a weather company, a power company or the like. Each object (1) and the management apparatus (2), the exterior information source (3) and the management apparatus (2) are connected via a network. Each object (1) includes a facility (1a) such as a heat storage air conditioner, power storage air conditioner or the like, and a controlling apparatus (1b) for working and controlling the facility (1a) and for extracting facility information of the facility (1a) and user determination information. The management apparatus (2) includes a database (2a) and a data processing section (2b). The data processing section (2b) in the management apparatus (2) carries out processing based upon facility information, user determination data, and exterior information, and generates working and controlling information. The information is transferred to corresponding controlling apparatus (1b). Performance required for the control apparatus for controlling each facility can be suppressed to be low performance, and sufficient working accuracy of each facility can be maintained.
Abstract:
Method and apparatus for cutting high viscosity liquid material, said apparatus comprising a cylinder divided into upper and lower tanks by a partition with a central discharge opening, a moveable and elevatable liquid supply pipe with a distal end positioned opposite the discharge opening, the liquid supply pipe being mounted so that it can be raised until its distal end contacts the partition around the discharge opening, and then lowered until there is no contact, means for raising and lowering the liquid supply pipe, the upper tank having peripheral injection ports for injecting a low viscosity liquid into the upper tank, means for feeding high viscosity liquid material into the lower tank and flowing it into the upper tank, means for feeding low viscosity liquid into the liquid supply pipe and for feeding low viscosity liquid into the peripheral injection ports, the high viscosity liquid material flowing from the lower tank into the upper tank when the liquid supply pipe is lowered, the high viscosity liquid material being pushed upwardly into the upper tank by the low viscosity liquid when the liquid supply pipe is raised, whereby the high viscosity liquid material being pushed upwardly in the upper tank is cut into blocks by the low viscosity liquid being injected into the upper tank.
Abstract:
A sheet-like pack 1A for the nose, being applicable to the skin of the nose, comprises a holding member 20 and a cosmetic material 30, and a receding portion 6 is formed at the middle of an upper edge 2 of the pack and a projecting portion 5 is formed at the middle of a lower edge 3 of the pack. These receding portions 6 and projecting portion 5 have shapes which are fittable with each other. This provides a pack for the nose which can readily fit with the nose of various shapes, inclusive of the tip of the nose, and can contribute to an improvement in yield when manufactured in a conveyor system. This also provides for a method of forming a pack and a sheet comprising packs.
Abstract:
A resistor trimming method includes the steps of: forming a first slit from an edge of a resistor interconnecting first and second electrodes provided on an insulating substrate in the proximity of and parallel to the first electrode; forming a second slit as a continuation of the first slit toward to the second electrode perpendicularly to the first slit; forming a third slit from a point of the edge of the resistor and parallel to the first electrode, the point being shifted from the first slit toward the second electrode, the third slit having a greater length than the first slit in a direction along the first electrode; and forming a fourth slit as a continuation of the third slit toward to the second electrodes perpendicularly to the first slit.

Abstract:
Image data including depth data on a pixel basis representing a sphere or column are previously generated and stored in a mapping memory. When the sphere or column is to be displayed on a display screen, the image data are read out from the mapping memory. The image data thus read out are mapped to a predetermined region of a memory for display and are processed for hidden surface removal simultaneously.
Abstract:
A booster circuit is configured, such that: in response to a reading request for reading data from a flash memory, when a voltage of an output terminal detected by a voltage detection circuit is not higher than a voltage, an oscillator outputs a control clock signal of predetermined on time and off time to a transistor of a boost converter to perform switching control of the transistor; and when the voltage detection circuit detects that the voltage of the output terminal reaches a voltage, an oscillator outputs a control clock signal of an on time and an off time input from a selection circuit to a transistor of a boost converter to perform switching control of the transistor.
Abstract:
The channel number detecting circuit detects the operation channel number based on the output terminal voltage after falling down when the output terminal voltage falls down during the voltage boosting control, and the switching control circuit generates the control clock signal having the on-time and the off-time adjusted based on the operation channel number and performs the voltage boosting control using generating control clock signal. The voltage boosting control is properly performed based on the operation channel number when the operation channel number increase during performing the voltage boosting control. Thus boosting the power supply voltage up to a second voltage is accomplished.
Abstract:
Optically active amine derivatives are produced by acting on imine derivatives with a culture of microorganisms having the ability to stereoselectively reduce the compounds, microbial cells, or processed products thereof, followed by collecting the generated optically active amine derivatives. Optically active amine derivatives obtained in the present invention are useful as materials for pharmaceutical agents. The present invention enables, for example, production of an optically active compound represented by formula (IV): (wherein R group represents an alkyl group having one to three carbon atoms; and n represents an integer of 1 to 4).
