An automatic washing machine includes a clutch float having external gear teeth. The clutch float is located around a shaft which is driven by an electric motor and to which an agitator is secured. The clutch float couples the shaft to an inner rotatable tub when its external gear teeth are engaged with internal gear teeth at the inner tub side in a dehydration step. The clutch float moves upwardly in subjection to buoyancy when water is supplied into the inner tub in a wash step. The external gear teeth of the clutch float are disengaged from the internal gear teeth so that the shaft is decoupled from the inner tub. The washing machine further includes a rotation restricting float which moves upwardly in subjection to the buoyancy in the wash step to couple the inner tub to an outer stationary tub and which decouples the inner tub from the outer tub in the dehydration step. A device delivers a position signal indicative of the position of the clutch float which is vertically movable. Based on the position signal, a control device controls the drive motor. The drive motor is of an outer rotor type and a motor control circuit is disposed in its stator.

A washing machine includes a dehydrating tub whose interior is divided by rotational angle detecting elements into a plurality of circumferential areas. A period of time required for each area to pass a water pouring location is cumulated by a timer function of a microcomputer in a rinse-with-dehydration operation in which the dehydrating tub is rotated with water being supplied to the tub, A quantity of water poured into or contained in laundry in each area is determined on the basis of a cumulated value so that insufficiency in the quantity of poured water due to rotational unevenness of the dehydrating tub is solved. The washing machine further includes an area display which has area display sections corresponding to the areas and which displays the hydrous state of the laundry in each area, The area display also serves to display the rotational state of the dehydrating tub and an agitator,

A blood purification apparatus includes a blood purification instrument for extracorporeally circulating blood of a patient and a concentration detector detecting a concentration of liquid flowing during blood purification. The concentration detector has a light emitter irradiating light onto said liquid, a light receiver receiving light from the light emitter transmitted through said liquid, and a detector detecting the received light intensity received by the light receiver. The concentration detector detects the concentration of the liquid based on the received light intensity and can be calibrated by adjusting an amount of irradiation by the light emitter so that the received light intensity has a predetermined value.

The surface density of projections formed on a thin metal film of a temperature-measuring member having the metal film having been subjected to a temperature profile is calculated with a number-calculating section according to image data fed into an arithmetic processing unit through an optical microscope, CCD camera, and I/O board. The maximum temperature of the object is determined with the temperature-calculating unit according to the surface density and data on the maximum temperature and surface density previously stored in memory. Furthermore, a temperature-measuring member constituted by a thin aluminum film arranged on a substrate is used. A reduction in the reflectivity of the film due to projections formed on the film surface according to a temperature profile to which the member has been subjected is measured. The maximum temperature in the temperature profile is estimated according to the reduction in reflectivity.

A producing apparatus (1) of fine particles includes two pipes constructed by an outer pipe (11) and an inner pipe (21) arranged in a concentric shape. The tip (21a) of the inner pipe (21) is spaced from the tip (11b) of the outer pipe (11) by a comparatively long distance. Fluid II is flowed toward the tip (21a) of the inner pipe (21) within the inner pipe (21). Fluid I is flowed toward the tip of the outer pipe (11) as a continuous phase within the outer pipe (11). The flow velocities of the fluid I and the fluid II within the outer pipe (11) and the inner pipe (21) are set to appropriate values by controlling the operations of respective pumps (14, 24) by commands from a controller (31). Thus, the fluid II exhausted from the tip (21a) of the inner pipe (21) becomes a droplet (3) having a in approximately spherical shape surrounded by the fluid I within the outer pipe (11) and having a predetermined desirable diameter.

A method for forming a porous film includes the precursor film forming step of forming a precursor film containing a mixture of a skeleton material and a pore-forming material, the decomposition step of decomposing the pore-forming material in the precursor film by oxidation in an oxidizing atmosphere, and the extraction step of extracting the decomposed pore-forming material with a supercritical fluid. The pore-forming material may be a surfactant. The surfactant may be decomposed by oxidation in an oxidizing atmosphere at 100 to 150° C.
