A sonar emits an ultrasonic wave into the water from a transducer on the basis of a transmission signal outputted from a transmission circuit, receives an echo reflected in the water with the transducer and converts the echo into an electric signal, and displays underwater information on a display unit on the basis of an echo signal extracted by processing the electric signal. A tailing signal removing unit for removing a tailing signal and extracting only the echo signal is provided in the sonar such that a video of a surface layer fish shoal is clearly displayed on a screen of the display unit without being hidden by a video of the tailing signal.

摘要:
A rational technical process for producing dialkylnaphthalenes from petroleum-derived starting materials which exist in abundance is established. The process for producing dialkylnaphthalenes contains the steps (1), (2), (3), and (4): (1) 1st step which is for catalytically hydrodealkylating a stock oil containing a substantial amount of naphthalene and/or alkylnapthalenes, separating a product oil form a product gas, and separating and recovering a fraction composed mainly of naphthalene and/or methylnaphthalene from the product oil; (2) 2nd step which is for catalytically alkylating or catalytically transalkylating the fraction, recovered in the 1st step, composed mainly of naphthalene and/or methylnaphthalene directly without pretreatment for purification, with an alkylating agent or transalkylating agent to prepare alkylnaphthalenes; (3) 3rd step which is for separating and recovering dialkylnaphthalenes from the alkylnaphthalenes obtained in the 2nd step; and (4) 4th step which is for returning at least a part of the residual fraction, after the separation and recovery of dialkylnaphthalenes in the 3rd step, as at least a part of the stock oil in the 1st step and/or at least part of the alkylating agent or transalkylating agent in the 2nd step to the corresponding step.

A grinding apparatus according to the present invention grinds a work having a plurality of non-circular work faces to be worked with a grindstone driven by a motor. The work faces are disposed at intervals. Distances between a grindstone unit, bearings and a gear train which are adjacent to each other, are substantially equal to a distance between adjacent work faces of the work. The gear train and the bearings can be respectively positioned between the adjacent work faces of the work in grinding. Therefore, it is possible to prevent interference of the gear train and the bearings with the work faces other than the work face which is being ground by the grinding wheel by a simple structure.
