Abstract:
A power source system comprises: a chemical reaction unit producing a gas for power generation; a generator unit reacting a part of the gas for power generation to generate power, and ejecting unreacted part in the gas for power generation as an offgas; a heating apparatus provided in the chemical reaction unit setting the chemical reaction unit to a predetermined temperature by a heat quantity by a combustion reaction using a combustion component of the offgas and the fuel for combustion; and a controller calculating a quantity of the combustion component in the offgas to control a heat quantity generated by the heating apparatus in order to maintain the predetermined temperature of the chemical reaction unit according to a calculated change of the quantity of the combustion component in the offgas.
Abstract:
A fuel feeder includes a fuel reserve body reserving a fuel, a fuel feed unit feeding the fuel in the fuel reserve body to electric equipment, and a control unit controlling the fuel feed unit, wherein the control unit obtains equipment information from by the electric equipment and operates the fuel feed unit to feed the fuel to the electric equipment after the control unit has performed authentication of the electric equipment.
Abstract:
An IC card system in which either an on-line transaction or an off-line transaction can be made by using an IC card. The IC card contains a memory for storing the data about every transaction made by using the IC card. Whenever an on-line transaction is made, the data about every off-line transaction previously made is read from the memory and then transferred to a host computer. Further, whenever the number of continuously performed off-line transactions becomes greater than a predetermined value, no further off-line transactions will be prohibited.
Abstract:
A nail print apparatus includes a print head which performs printing on a finger nail, a printing finger positioning unit which holds a fingertip of the finger nail on which the print head performs printing, non-printing finger receiving units which are provided respectively at sides of the printing finger positioning unit and which receive fingers other than the finger held by the printing finger positioning unit, and a placement unit on which at least the fingertip of the finger received by the printing finger positioning unit is placed.
Abstract:
There is provided a power generation system. A chemical reacting section receives a power generation fuel and reforms the power generation fuel to generate a power generation gas containing hydrogen. A power generating section receives the power generation gas, reacts a part of the power generation gas to generate electrical energy, supplies the electrical energy to a load, and discharges an unreacted component in the power generation gas as an off-gas. A heating section receives the off-gas and generates a thermal energy by using the off-gas to heat the chemical reacting section. An output control section controls the amount of electrical energy output from the power generating section. A control section controls the amount of electrical energy output from the power generating section to change a temperature of the chemical reacting section set based on the thermal energy to a predetermined temperature.
Abstract:
A nail printing apparatus is provided with a main body including a held portion which has a print target finger placing surface and a non-print-target finger placing surface. The print target finger placing surface is configured in such a manner that at least one finger with a nail, on which a desired image is to be printed, of one hand is placed thereon. The non-print-target finger placing surface is configured in such a manner that at least one remaining finger of the one hand is placed thereon. The held portion is held between the at least one finger on the print target finger placing surface and the at least one remaining finger on the non-print-target placing surface. The apparatus is further provided with an image printing unit configured to print the desired image on the nail of the at least one finger on the print target finger placing surface.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a power generating module which generates electric power by using fuel, including: an accommodating section to accommodate a fuel container to store fuel; a power generating section to perform power generation by using the fuel in the fuel container; and a controlling section to allow, after an amount of the fuel in the fuel container accommodated in the accommodating section becomes less than a predetermined amount necessary for the power generation in the power generating section, at least a portion of a by-product generated in a process of the power generation in the power generating section to be collected into the fuel container containing less than the predetermined amount of the fuel.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a power generation module including a fuel take-in unit to take in fuel from at least one of a plurality of fuel containers, the fuel take-in unit being coupled with the plurality of fuel containers; a power generator to generate electricity by using the fuel supplied from the at least one of the plurality of fuel containers; and a by-product discharger to discharge a by-product, which is generated during the generation of the electricity by the power generator, selectively to the at least one of the plurality of fuel containers.
Abstract:
Provided is a fuel cell including an electrolyte membrane, a first separator in which a fuel path through which a fuel flows is formed so as to face one surface of the electrolyte membrane and which has thereinside a fuel supply amount adjuster for adjusting the supply amount of the fuel, and a second separator in which an oxidizer path through which an oxidizer flows is formed so as to face the other surface of the electrolyte membrane.
