| 20100186475 | PRESS-DIE AND PRESS-WORKING METHOD - A movable die is provided to be displaceable in an upper die. When the upper die is moved downward to press a steel plate together with a lower die, only the movable die first abuts on the steel plate to carry out forming together with the lower die. Then, the upper die is further moved downward to form a part which has not been formed by the movable die. | 07-29-2010 |

| 20100150810 | Method of coproducing methanol and ammonia - The present invention enables the coproduction of methanol and ammonia by using a remarkably smaller amount of raw material, natural gas, as compared with the case of independently producing either of methanol or ammonia. Specifically, the present invention provides a process of coproducing methanol and ammonia by using natural gas, LPG, butane, or naphtha as raw material, having a methanol production process (A) composed of specific steps and an ammonia production process (B) also composed of specific steps, in which (1) directing a gas rich in hydrogen recovered in a hydrogen recoverying step in the methanol production process (A) to a certain step after an air reforming step and before a ammonia synthesis step in the ammonia production process (B) to prepare additional feedstock gas for ammonia synthesis; and also (2) cooling a synthesis gas, formed in a steam reforming step in the methanol production process (A) and separating and removing condensed water from the cooled synthesis gas, mixing the water removed synthesis gas and carbon dioxide obtained by pre-compressing carbon dioxide obtained in a CO | 06-17-2010 |

| 20090184501 | Side impact absorbing structure for vehicle - A side impact absorbing structure for a vehicle is provided. The structure includes an impact absorbing member which is accommodated in a car body side wall at a position corresponding to a seating region set on a seat, and a buffer unit which is accommodated in the car body side wall and cooperates with the impact absorbing member upon lateral collision to moderate an impact on a side portion of a passenger. The buffer unit includes a rigid body portion which is arranged at a position where the rigid body portion does not overlap the impact absorbing member in the car body side wall and the seating region when seen from the side of a car body. | 07-23-2009 |

| 20110169982 | IMAGE MANAGEMENT APPARATUS, METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME, AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING PROGRAM THEREFOR - An image management apparatus which makes it possible to classify picked-up images according to the occasion of going-out without burdening a user. An information processing apparatus manages a plurality of image files obtained through shooting processing by an image pickup apparatus, and acquires GPS information indicative of a location of the image pickup apparatus and a time when the location was detected. The information processing apparatus sets one record of the GPS information as reference start time information, and retrieves a GPS information record indicative of a location identical to the location indicated by the reference start time information, as reference end information. The information processing apparatus classifies image files of respective shooting times occurring between a time indicated by the reference start time information and a time indicated by the reference end time information, into the same group. | 07-14-2011 |
