摘要:
It is an object to provide a method whereby with respect to a microorganism present in an environment contaminated with tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethylene (TCE), capability of the microorganism to degrade contaminants can be judged promptly. In order to achieve the above-described object, a biological activity judging method according to the present invention is a method of judging capability of a contaminated environment to eliminate an organochlorine compound, in which using a DNA probe that allows a bacterium to be detected specifically, which has a degradation activity with respect to the organochlorine compound and/or a dechlorinated product thereof, the bacterium in the environment is detected. The present invention also provides a new type of polynucleotide that can be used as a DNA probe in the biological activity judging method according to the present invention.

A pressure sensor has a diaphragm that is exposed to air in a tire of a vehicle. A transmitter wirelessly transmits data representing the air pressure of the tire. A casing accommodates the transmitter and the pressure sensor. A lid closes an opening of the casing. A metal body is provided on the lid. When the opening of the casing is closed with the lid, the diaphragm is covered with the metal body.

To provide a compact projector in which a projection image is formed by using four kinds of color light so as to expand an expressible color gamut of the projection image and to achieve an excellent light utilization efficiency, a projector includes a light source, a color-separation optical system, a light-modulation optical system, and a color-synthesis optical system. The color-separation optical system produces four kinds of color light whose output directions are different from each other. The light-modulation optical system includes a first two-color-modulation electro-optical device to modulate any two of the four kinds of color light separated by the color-separation optical system and a second two-color-modulation electro-optical device to modulate the remaining two kinds of color light. Each two two-color-modulation electro-optical device includes a microlens array on a substrate close to the color-separation optical system and a plurality of sub-pixels corresponding to respective microlenses.

A single-chip microcomputer comprising: a first bus having a central processing unit and a cache memory connected therewith; a second bus having a dynamic memory access control circuit and an external bus interface connected therewith; a break controller for connecting the first bus and the second bus selectively; a third bus having a peripheral module connected therewith and having a lower-speed bus cycle than the bus cycles of the first and second buses; and a bus state controller for effecting a data transfer and a synchronization between the second bus and the third bus. The single-chip microcomputer has the three divided internal buses to reduce the load capacity upon the signal transmission paths so that the signal transmission can be accomplished at a high speed. Moreover, the peripheral module required to have no operation speed is isolated so that the power dissipation can be reduced.

A projector is provided which can realize a bright projected image of high light utilization efficiency while combining a reflective-type liquid crystal device and an integrator optical system. The projector may include a light source lamp, a light beam dividing optical element, a polarization conversion element, a polarization selection element having a polarization selection surface, and an electro-optical device. When a plane of incidence including a normal line of the polarization selection surface and the central axis of an incident light is assumed, the direction parallel to the plane of incidence and perpendicularly intersecting the central axis is assumed to be the X-axis direction, and the direction perpendicularly intersecting the plane of incidence is assumed to be the Y-axis direction, the direction of polarization beam separation by the polarization conversion element is the X-axis direction.

A screen is arranged substantially in parallel with a yz-plane. A first mirror is placed with its reflection plane substantially perpendicular to the yz-plane and also inclined approximately 45° to an xy-plane. At least an electro-optical device, color combining means, and projection lens are arranged along the xy-plane so that an image-light ray emitted from a color-combining optical system enters the first mirror with its optical-axis parallel to the xy plane and inclined &agr;° with respect to a y-axis. A second mirror is placed substantially perpendicularly to an XZ-plane and also with an inclination of smaller by &agr;/2° than 45° approximately with respect to the yz-plane, so that the image-light ray reflected from the first mirror is reflected by the second mirror again so as to enter the screen with the optical axis being incident on the substantial center of the screen and substantially perpendicular to the screen. Thereby, the positional adjustment of an optical system constituting a projector is facilitated and also the apparatus is miniaturized.

A controlling method for a nuclear magnetic resonance apparatus. The method includes: (A) cooling the high-temperature superconductor at a magnetization low temperature sufficiently lower than a superconductor transition temperature, and magnetizing the high-temperature superconductor with a magnetic field; (B) raising the temperature of the high-temperature superconductor at a magnetic flux setting temperature higher than the magnetization low temperature and lower than the superconductor transition temperature and setting a predetermined magnetic flux density; and (C) controlling the high-temperature superconductor in an operation temperature range lower than the magnetic flux setting temperature. Therefore, a strong static magnetic field comparable to a conventional superconducting magnet is formed without using a refrigerant (liquid helium) essential for operating the conventional superconducting magnet, and a magnetic flux density of the static magnetic field is held constant.

The invention relates to methods and systems that suppress the expansion of an illuminating luminous flux in the short-side direction of a sub-pixel and prevents a color mixture caused by leak of light to an adjacent pixel electrode. The methods and systems of the invention set the direction of polarization separation, using a polarization transforming element, as the long-side direction of a sub-pixel with respect to the directions of the short sides and the long sides of sub-pixels arranged correspondingly to a microlens. The methods and systems of the invention also make the intervals between light source images narrower in the short-side direction, using a luminous flux separation optical element.

摘要:
There is disclosed a boring machine capable of achieving high processing precision and high processing efficiency. A table is mounted on a bed for reciprocal movement in right and left directions. A workpiece fixing device for fixing workpieces W of a semi-cylindrical shape is mounted on the bed. Cutting tools P and Q for cutting the workpieces W, a workpiece carry-in device and a workpiece carry-out device are provided on the table. The table is moved to a left side, and the workpieces W are placed on the workpiece carry-in means. Then, the table is moved to a right side to transfer the workpieces W to the workpiece fixing device. The table is again moved to the left side, so that each workpiece W is subjected to a boring processing by the cutting tools P and Q. The workpiece carry-out device receives the processed workpieces W, and then the workpieces W are unloaded from the boring machine by a workpiece unloading device, and are fed to a subsequent step.
