A piston for in-cylinder fuel-injection type internal combustion engine includes a piston body, a low thermal conductor, and a piston head. The low thermal conductor is disposed on the top of the piston body. The low thermal conductor includes a low thermally-conductive substrate, and a coating layer. The low thermally-conductive substrate has opposite surfaces. The coating layer includes alumina fine particles (Al2O3). The coating layer is adhered on at least a part one of the opposite surfaces of the low thermally-conductive substrate that makes a cast-buried or enveloped surface to be cast buried or enveloped in the piston head.

Provided are a stacked electronic part that can sufficiently suppress plating deposition on the surface of a porous green body when a terminal electrode is formed on an external electrode, thereby enabling a decrease in the reliability of products to be prevented, and a method of manufacturing the stacked electronic part. The stacked electronic part 1 is a PTC thermistor having a stacked body 4 containing a porous green body 2 made of ceramics and having a plurality of vacancies and a plurality of internal electrodes 3 formed within the porous green body 2, and is provided with at least one unit structure 10 in which the porous green body 2 and the internal electrode 3 are stacked. External electrodes 5, 5 are connected to the internal electrode 2, and upon the external electrodes 5, 5 are formed terminal electrodes 7, 7 by plating. Resin is filled in the plurality of vacancies of the porous green body 2 at a filling ratio of not less than 60%.

A core material-including organic core board or inorganic sintered board 1 having a plurality of band-shaped conductor patterns 2 formed on its front and rear surfaces is sliced in a direction crossing the band-shaped conductor patterns 2. End portions of the band-shaped conductor patterns 2 exposed on each of cut surfaces of the core board 1 are connected to one another by bridging conductor patterns formed on the cut surfaces. In this manner, at least one helical coil is provided. The inner diameter of the helical coil can be kept constant while coil pitch accuracy can be kept good.

Steam is contacted with a hydrogen absorbing alloy in a temperature range from 200.degree. C. to 400.degree. C. With a contact catalytic reaction of water, a metal contained in the hydrogen absorbing alloy is changed to an oxide or a hydroxide. Hydrogen produced causes the Ni compound to be reduced and thereby the Ni metal that is catalytically active is produced. Thus, the surface of the hydrogen absorbing alloy is activated. The steam is contained in an inert gas or a reductive gas. This treatment method is suitable as an activation treatment for a hydrogen absorbing alloy used as an active material of a negative electrode of a secondary battery.
摘要:
In a redundant array of disks, the disks are divided into areas of different sizes, so that small amounts of data can be stored in an area of an appropriate size on a single disk, instead of being spread over multiple disks. A usage status table indicates which areas are in use. Check information is generated and stored only for areas indicated to be in use. When new check information is generated, it is therefore possible to omit the reading of unnecessary old data and old check information. When a disk fails and is replaced with a standby disk, only the data in areas indicated to be in use are reconstructed. Check information can be stored on a solid-state disk.

摘要:
In an electrophotographic recording device which includes a number of consumable parts, there is provided a first memory for storing a currently integrated total number of prints, and a number of prints at replacement of each consumable part. A second memory stores a number of lifetime prints, which is a conversion of the life of each part into a number of prints. A processor performs a first calculation to calculate a number of prints for replaced consumable parts after such replacement and a second calculation to calculate a wear rate of the replaced consumable parts from the number of lifetime prints read out from the second memory, and from the number of prints calculated by the first calculation. An indication section indicates the wear rate obtained from the second calculation. The number of prints stored in the first memory for the consumable parts at replacement is written into the current total number of prints.
摘要:
An HM reservoir for storing hydrogen includes a housing and a plurality of storage units. The storage units are stacked in the interior of the housing. Each storage unit includes a pair of plate-like molded bodies and a flat heat exchanger. The plate-like molded bodies are formed by compressing powder of hydrogen storage material. The heat exchanger is provided between the molded bodies. Each molded body includes a first side and a second side, which is opposite to the first side. The first side contacts the heat exchanger. A plurality of flat hydrogen passages are formed in the interior of the housing to face the second sides of the associated molded bodies. The structure of the HM reservoir is thus simple. Further, the molded bodies of the HM reservoir smoothly absorb hydrogen and smoothly release the same.
