摘要:
A refrigeration system in an ice making machine has an evaporator coil connected at its inlet side to an outlet of a refrigeration compressor through a condensing coil and at its outlet side to an inlet of the compressor. An expansion valve is interposed between the condensing coil and the evaporator coil. A bypass line is connected in parallel with the condensing coil and the expansion valve. A solenoid valve is disposed within the bypass line to permit the flow of hot gas supplied therethrough from the compressor into the evaporator coil when it has been energized. The expansion valve is in the form of an expansion valve of the externally equalized type associated with an external equalizer pipe having an extremity connected to an intermediate portion of the evaporator coil between the inlet and outlet sides thereof. A thermostat bulb is located on a return line between the outlet side of the evaporator coil and the compressor. The thermostat bulb is filled with an amount of inert gas, which is determined to cause a maximum working pressure acting on the expansion valve, which is higher than the pressure of refrigerant at the intermediate portion of the evaporator coil during the freezing cycle and which is lower than the pressure of hot gas at the intermediate portion of the evaporator coil during the defrost cycle.

In a liquid fuel combustion apparatus, the upper end of a wick is ready to be ignited when it projects upward from a pan portion, and is extinguished when it is withdrawn downward from the pan portion. The wick moves up and down as a first operating lever swings around an operating shaft. If the first operating lever is lowered, a retaining lever is raised by a bent strip. When the wick is in a position for high-temperature combustion, a retaining portion of the retaining lever engages a receiving portion of an interlocking plate. When the first operating lever is lowered, its engaging pin engages an engaging slit of an adjusting lever. If a knob of a thermal power control plate is moved up and down along a slot, the adjusting lever swings around a support pin, and the first operating lever swings slightly through the engaging pin and the engaging slit. Thus, the wick is moved up and down in a combustion region for adjustment of thermal power. If an extinction lever is operated or if a movement-sensitive pendulum is activated, the retaining portion is disengaged from the receiving portion to cause the operating shaft to rock at a stroke in an extinction direction. Thus, the wick is extinguished in an instant.

摘要:
In a hybrid vehicle, an ECU collects data of (i) an amount of acquisition electrical power acquired when regeneratively charging a battery and (ii) an amount of requirement electrical power required for operating a motor, for every road section in association with a travel of the vehicle, and records the collected data in a storage device. Thereafter, when a travel course the vehicle is going to travel includes a road section where the amount of acquisition electrical power is greater than an acquisition-related threshold value or a road section where the amount of requirement electrical power is greater than a requirement-related threshold value, a re-plan of a control schedule for the engine and the motor is executed. In contrast, when the travel course does not include such a road section, a re-plan of the control schedule is prohibited.
