摘要:
A process which enables high-chromium alloy such as ferrochromium heretofore obtained by the use of electricity to be produced less expensively in higher yield of chromium by the smelting reduction using solid carbonaceous material such as coke in the place of electricity.The process of smelting reduction is so performed in the top and bottom blowing converter divided into two stages: the first stage for carrying out the converter operation under continued supply of the raw materials containing pre-reduced chromium oxide (chromium ore) and the second stage for carrying out the converter operation under suspended supply of the raw materials containing the pre-reduced chromium oxide, and the first stage of converter operation is carried out under conditions such that the temperature of the molten metal remains at or below 1,650.degree. C. and the ratio of the volume of the gas generated per minute by the substances supplied through the tuyere for bottom blowing to the combined weight of the molten metal and the molten slag falls in the range of 100 to 2,500 [Nl/min.t] and the second stage of converter operation is carried out under conditions such that the temperature of the molten metal remains at or below 1,650.degree. C., the ratio of the volume of gas generated per minute by the substances supplied through the tuyere for bottom blowing to the combined weight of the molten metal and the molten slag falls in the range of 100 to 1,800 [Nl/min.t].
摘要:
There is provided a process for producing a high-manganese iron alloy from a manganese ore and/or a pre-reduced product thereof in a top and bottom blown converter type reaction vessel holding molten iron or a molten manganese iron alloy, together with a molten slag, said molten iron or alloy and said molten slag being the products of a separate smelting furnace, gas being blown into said vessel through a bottom blowing nozzle, said process comprising charging said vessel with a supply of raw materials including at least one source of manganese and iron selected from a manganese ore containing manganese oxide and iron oxide and a pre-reduced product thereof, a solid carbonaceous substance and a slag forming agent, while simultaneously blowing gas selected from oxygen and a gas containing oxygen into said vessel through a top blowing lance to burn said carbonaceous substance so as to heat, melt and reduce said raw materials to form a melt containing manganese oxide and iron oxide; supplying an additional carbonaceous substance into said melt to reduce said manganese oxide and said iron oxide to form a molten high-manganese iron alloy and a molten slag, discontinuing said blowing of gas through said top blowing lance, and removing said molten high-manganese iron alloy and said molten slag from said vessel, said molten alloy being used for casting.

Spherical biodegradable particles have improved flexibility, cause less aggregation among particles, and have improved particle shape-recovering ability after passing through a catheter or the like. The biodegradable particles include a synthetic polymer chemically cross-linked to a polyvalent carboxylic acid, the biodegradable particles having a water content of 20 to 90% in a water-saturated state.

A holding device for a connector associated with an electrically controlled automotive mirror is provided such that the connector becomes fixed to a mirror unit by a cylindrical portion integrally formed in a bracket mounted to a side of a housing adapted for connection to an automotive vehicle body. Due to the provision of the cylindrical portion, the connector can be fixed to the mirror unit in a simple manner. With the connector being fixed to the mirror unit, connections between the connector and a mated connector provided in automotive vehicle body may be made in a much easier fashion.

A data retrieving apparatus having an address generator for selecting partly at least one of bit strings of the identification data and generating a hashed address by a reversible operation thereof when a packet having an operand data and a plurality of identification data is inputted, a hash memory for being accessed by the hashed address, a match detector for comparing the identification data of the stored packet with the identification data of the inputted packet and judging match/mismatch thereof when a valid packet is already stored in the hashed address generated from the inputted packet, an associative memory unit for storing the identification data of the inputted packet as a retrieval data when the match detector judges to be mismatch, and judging match/mismatch of the identification data already stored with the identification data of the inputted packet when a packet is inputted, and an output selector for selecting an output from the hash memory or the associative memory unit in response to the result of judgement of said associative memory unit.
摘要:
A biodegradable particle including a block copolymer produced by copolymerization of a biodegradable copolymer having a structure composed of hydroxycarboxylic acid a1, whose homopolymer produced by homopolymerization has a glass transition point of not less than 40° C., and hydroxycarboxylic acid a2, whose homopolymer produced by homopolymerization has a glass transition point of not more than −40° C.; a water-soluble polymer comprising a functional group selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyl group, amino group and carboxylic acid group at each of both ends; and a polyvalent compound comprising 2 or more functional groups each selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyl group, amino group and carboxylic acid group; wherein a ratio of mass of said structure composed of hydroxycarboxylic acid a2 to mass of said biodegradable copolymer is 30 to 90% by mass.
摘要:
A space S is formed between a fluid control device 6 requiring temperature measurement and a support member 9. A thermostat unit 10 is arranged in the space S, and a thermostat 11 is allowed to abut on the fluid control device 6 requiring the temperature measurement. The thermostat 11 is supported by an attachment jig 12 attached to the support member 9. The attachment jig 12 is made up of a first jig 13 fixed to the support member 9, a second jig 14 fixed to the first jig 13, and a third jig 15 shiftably attached to the second jig 14 and to which the thermostat 11 is fixed. A biasing member is interposed between the first jig 13 and the third jig 15.
摘要:
A shift lever device having a shift lever which allows selection of an arbitrary shift range by shift operation and includes a support which rotatably supports the shift lever and includes breakable portions which break when an impact force above a preselected magnitude is applied to the shift lever. Accordingly, when an axial impact force indicative of a sudden deceleration is applied to the shift lever, the support is broken. The breakage of the support allows safer absorption of the impact force applied to the shift lever. The breakable portions may take the form of a frangible pin or bracket that pivotally supports the shift lever.
