摘要:
In a turbidimeter for measuring a turbidity of a test solution to be measured i.e. culture solution in a fermentation apparatus, a semiconductor laser diode and a semiconductor photodiode are integrally arranged in a detection portion of the turbidimeter in such a manner that a laser beam emitted from the semiconductor laser diode is made incident upon the semiconductor photodiode through the test solution. Moreover, a protection circuit for the semiconductor laser diode and the semiconductor photodiode is also arranged in the turbidimeter to cut off a current flowed therethrough when an environmental temperature becomes above a predetermined temperature. Therefore, the turbidimeter can be made small in size and light in weight, and the turbidity can be measured accurately over wide range.

This invention relates to an apparatus for automatically sampling a clarified test solution from a suspension to be tested, which comprises two filtering tubes being immersed in the suspension, a circulator connected to the one tube, and a sampling cell connected to the circulator and the other tube. The suspension is sucked by the circulator and filtered through the one tube. The filtered and clarified test solution is sampled in the sampling cell and the residual test solution is returned to the suspension through the other tube. A flow direction of the test solution is reversed at intervals so that the filtering tubes are not blocked by suspending solids.

Cell culture apparatus comprises a fluidized bed culture tank body in which cell attached porous material is fluidized by air flow, and a pre-culture tank for supplying medium to the fluidized bed culture tank body according to the amount of the liquid medium which is taken out of the fluidized bed culture tank body. By the use of a drain valve which can be controlled to remove liquid medium and porous material or just liquid medium, the cell culture apparatus can continuously produce metabolite.

The invention improves the thermal conductivity of the material powder to be fired and also makes it possible to produce an amorphous magnetically soft body within a shortened period of time. The amorphous magnetically soft body is produced by preforming the material powder into a body first, and heating the preformed body without pressing. Stated more specifically, an amorphous magnetically soft body is produced from a material powder comprising a powder of an amorphous magnetically soft alloy, a glass having a softening point lower than the crystallization starting temperature of the alloy and a binding resin, by pressing the material powder in a preforming die to prepare a preformed body by the binding property of the resin, and firing the preformed body without pressing at a temperature higher than the softening point of the glass and lower than the crystallization starting temperature of the alloy to join the particles of the alloy with the glass.

The invention provides a thermoelectric element produced by placing a powder of thermoelectric material over an electrode plate first and then an electrode plate over the power to form superposed layers, and thereafter sintering the powder with a pressure applied thereto perpendicular to the superposed layers. The electrode plates and the thermoelectric material are joined into an integral assembly before fabricating a thermoelectric module. The invention provides a thermoelectric module which is produced by arranging p-type thermoelectric elements and n-type thermoelectric elements alternately in a row at a predetermined interval, each of the elements comprising a thermoelectric material provided between and joined to a pair of opposed electrode plates, and interconnecting pairs of spaced adjacent upper electrode plates and pairs of spaced adjacent lower electrode plates alternately by brazing to electrically connect the p-type and n-type thermoelectric elements in series. Another thermoelectric module of the invention is fabricated by preparing a plurality of submodules each comprising p-type thermoelectric elements and n-type thermoelectric elements arranged alternately in an elongated row and electrically connected in series through electrode plates, arranging the submodules side by side suitably, and brazing the electrode plate of the p-type thermoelectric element at an end position of each submodule to the electrode plate of the n-type thermoelectric element at a corresponding end position of another submodule adjacent to the submodule so as to electrically connect the plurality of submodules in series.
