Abstract:
A water drain device of a revolving electric machine, wherein an oil reservoir chamber is formed at a position adjacent a bearing housing chamber in a housing having a rotor housing chamber and the bearing housing chamber, a rotor in the rotor housing chamber is supported by bearings in the bearing housing chambers, and an oil seal in slidable contact with the outer peripheral surface of the rotor is provided at a position adjacent the oil reservoir chamber. In the housing, an oil discharge channel opens in a direction in which gravity drains oil in the oil reservoir chamber out of the housing, a water discharge channel connects the rotor housing chamber and the vicinity of an outlet of the oil discharge channel, and an air vent channel connects the rotor housing chamber to the oil discharge channel through the oil reservoir chamber. A drain cover forming a fluid discharge channel is mounted in the vicinity of the outlet of the oil discharge channel and an outlet of the water discharge channel. The drain cover is inserted into a drain cover mounting groove. At least a pair of baffle plates are provided in a hollow portion of the drain cover.

Abstract:
A recording device includes: an input portion to which data to be recorded is input; and a recording control portion which transfers the data input to the input portion to a recording medium to record the data in the recording medium by using a certain file system, and specifies a partial region or some files in the data recorded in the recording medium to set the partial region or the files as recording information of an additional information region prepared in the file system.
Abstract:
A liquid propellant tank for storing a liquid propellant A and supplying vapor produced by evaporation of part of the liquid propellant A to an external location comprises a tank body for storing the liquid propellant A, and a plurality of holder plates arranged inside the tank body, around an axis L of the tank body. The holder plates cause the liquid propellant A to adhere to them by surface tension, thereby establishing, inside the tank body, a liquid propellant holding area LA in which the liquid propellant A is held and a gas accumulation area GA in which vapor produced by evaporation of part of the liquid propellant A accumulates. The tank body has a propellant inlet open into the liquid propellant holding area LA and a gas outlet open into the gas accumulation area GA.
Abstract:
The grasping apparatus includes a grasping portion for grasping a workpiece. This grasping portion has i) pawl portions having squeezing portions that squeeze the workpiece, and ii) contact portions, each of which has an inner bag made of elastic material, and a granular substance that is filled in the inner bag. The contact portions are attached to portions of the squeezing portions that contact the workpiece, and harden the granular substance while keeping it in an appropriate shape by increasing a volume ratio of the granular substance to an inner volume of the inner bags. Retaining portions that have concavo-convex shapes are formed on the attaching surfaces that are portions of the squeezing portions that the contact portions attach to.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a recording apparatus including: an input section configured to input data to be recorded; and a recording control section configured to reserve a recording region beforehand on recording media by updating file management information about the recording media to which the data is to be recorded, the recording control section being further configured such that when the data input through the input section has reached a predetermined data amount, the recording control section records the input data to the reserved region.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a recording apparatus including: an input section configured to input data to be recorded; a data placement section configured to suffix write complete information indicating that a written state of the data written to recording media is normal, to the data; and a recording control section configured to transfer a predetermined amount of the data to which the write completion information is suffixed by the data placement section, to the recording media successively for recording thereto from a start block of the data.
Abstract:
A method for removing a wrapped yarn coil of an initial yarn portion of a package; the wrapped yarn coil being wound on a bobbin while being gripped by a slit-like groove formed on the bobbin end along a peripheral circle of the bobbin, and being followed by a transfer tail; including steps ofsevering the wrapped yarn coil at a position on the bobbin end in which the slit-like groove does not exist,while holding the severed ends of the wrapped yarn coil by suction, gripping the severed ends by grippers, andremoving the wrapped yarn coil from the slit-like groove along the periphery of the bobbin while rotating the grippers in the twisting direction so that a twist is imparted to the wrapped yarn coil held by the grippers.
Abstract:
In a laser beam machine tool, the problems of power losses, misalignment, high cost, and other problems associated with moving laser heads are eliminated by using a five-axis table in which a biaxial work holder, capable of rotating and tilting a workpiece is mounted on a three-axis table mechanism. In the three-axis table mechanism, an X-axis table is supported on linear motion bearings in overlapping relationship on a Y-axis table, which is, in turn, supported on linear motion bearings on a vertically movable Z-axis table, which is also supported in linear motion bearings. The X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis tables are driven by servo motors through ball screws so that backlash is avoided.
