摘要:
The catalyst carrier in accordance with the present invention is a catalyst carrier comprising a support containing an oxide and an element in group 3A of the periodic table, and a coating part covering at least a part of a surface of the support; wherein the coating part contains an element in group 3A of the periodic table; and wherein the element in group 3A contained in the coating part has a concentration higher than that of the element in group 3A contained in the support. In this case, even when a catalyst in which rhodium is supported by the catalyst carrier is used for a long time in a high temperature environment, the grain growth of rhodium particles can be suppressed, and the catalyst can fully be prevented from lowering its activity.

A catalyst for purifying exhaust gases includes a carrier substrate and a catalyst layer which is carried on the carrier substrate and contains a noble metal, a porous oxide and an additional oxide containing at least one selected from the group consisting of Ni, Bi, Sn, Fe, Co, Cu and Zn. Only a downstream section of the carrier substrate, which is located on a downstream side of an exhaust gas stream contains the additional oxide, whereas an upstream section of the carrier substrate does not contain the additional oxide. With this arrangement, in the upstream section of the carrier substrate, the noble metal and the additional oxide do not exist together so that the noble metal is not deteriorated with the additional oxide. As a result, in the upstream section, the purification performance as a three-way catalyst is favorably achieved, thereby restraining the emission of H2S while maintaining the three-way performance.

In a method of coating a substrate, inner walls of flow channels of the substrate are coated with a slurry. A plurality of flow channels each opened at both end faces are formed in the substrate. The method includes a step of storing a predetermined amount of slurry in a slurry container in which the end of the substrate, where the flow channels of the substrate are opened, can be inserted under pressure into the slurry container. A step of inserting the substrate with the end of the substrate being downward in the slurry container and dipping the substrate under pressure to the slurry liquid surface, and a step of extending the slurry along the inner wall of the flow channels by blow-opening the respective flow channels in a state of up-turning the slurry container together with the substrate.

In a three-way catalyst for purifying exhaust gases from internal combustion engines, scattering of bismuth components can be suppressed by employing a Bi—Ti composite oxide at a predetermined ratio. Accordingly, the effect of suppressing hydrogen sulfide emissions can be retained for a long time. This catalyst comprises a support substrate, and a catalyst layer formed on the support substrate and including a noble metal, a porous oxide, and a Bi—Ti composite oxide, and satisfies 0.3≦R≦1.5, where R is the molar ratio of the Bi content to the Ti content per unit volume of the support substrate.

A catalyst for purifying exhaust gases includes a support substrate, and a catalytic loading layer. The support substrate has an exhaust-gas flow passage. The catalytic loading layer is formed on a surface of the exhaust-gas flow passage, and is composed of a porous oxide support and a catalytic ingredient. The catalytic loading layer includes an Rh area, and an oxidizing area. On the Rh area, rhodium is loaded as the catalytic ingredient. The oxidizing area is formed on an exhaust-gas flow downstream side with respect to the Rh area. On the oxidizing area, a catalytic ingredient exhibiting an oxidizing activity at least is loaded. Also disclosed is an exhaust-gas purification controller using the same.

A communications system implementing high-speed, high-quality communication in an oblong communication range such as mobile communication, and a leaky optical fiber preferably used in such communications system are provided. An optical fiber (2) is a GI-type optical fiber having a core structured such that the refractive index at the center is large, gradually decreasing as it approaches the periphery, and may have scatterers mixed therein. When modulated light enters the optical fiber (2) from a transmitter (1), the modulated light proceeds through the optical fiber (2) while a part of the light leaks from the side thereof. A receiver (3) receives this leaked light, and demodulates it so as to obtain data. Since the optical fiber (2) is a GI type, high-speed, high-quality mobile communication is possible with little waveform deformation.
摘要:
A valve performance control apparatus has a low speed cam, a high speed cam, and an intermediate speed cam. A rocker arm is arranged between the cams and a valve. The rocker arm contacts the low speed cam. A pair of cam followers are reciprocally supported in the rocker arm to contact the high speed and intermediate speed cams. Lock members are slidably received in bores (or grooves) of the rocker arm. The lock members, when positioned in an unlocked position, permit the free reciprocation of the associated cam followers with respect to the rocker arm, which causes the valve to be driven by the low speed cam. When locked, the lock members abut against the associated cam followers and lock the cam followers to the rocker arm, which causes the valve to be driven by the cam with the largest profile. The lock member has an abutment surface, which contacts and is pressed by the cam follower. The bore has a supporting wall for supporting the lock member opposite to the abutment surface when the abutment surface of the lock member is positioned in the lock position and is pressed by the cam follower. The lock member is not subjected to bending or shear, which improves the reliability of the apparatus.
