The process is characterized in that the ratio of the number of carbon atoms to the number of silicon atoms in the preform is 1.02 to 1.20, and before the hot isostatic pressing, the preform is heated in an inert gas atmosphere or a reducing gas atmosphere at a temperature of 1200° C. to 1800° C. to adjust the oxygen content in the inorganic fiber to 6.0% by weight or lower, and then the hot isostatic pressing is carried out. | 08-04-2011 |

| 20120024857 | ROLLER SHUTTER TYPE STORAGE CONTAINER - A roller shutter type storage container includes a container body, a roller shutter accommodating portion, a pair of guide grooves, and a roller shutter. Each of the guide grooves extends linearly in an opening formed in the container body and is curved in the roller shutter accommodating portion. The roller shutter is configured by connecting a plurality of slats each having shafts formed at two ends of the slat with respect to the widthwise direction in a bendable manner. As the two shafts of each of the slats slide in the corresponding guide grooves, the roller shutter slides between an open position for opening the opening and a close position for closing the opening. Each one of the shafts is spaced from a vertical wall surface of the corresponding one of the guide grooves. A projection formed of soft material projects outward from each shaft of each slat in the widthwise direction and contacts the corresponding vertical wall surface in an elastically deformed state. | 02-02-2012 |

| 20110259440 | FRICTIONAL RESISTANCE REDUCTION DEVICE FOR SHIP - A inject gas control device that performs, for example, control reflecting variation in vessel velocity over time without adversely affecting the main engine is realized. That is, it is prevented that gas is drawn too much and thereby a gas supply or charged air rate becomes insufficient, efficiency of the main engine is decreased and exhaust gas is deteriorated, and analogous events occur because the gas supply or charged air rate is too much instead. | 10-27-2011 |

| 20120119748 | BATTERY VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT SYSTEM AND BATTERY VOLTAGE MEASUREMENT METHOD - The present invention provides a battery voltage measurement system and battery voltage measurement method that may reduce the size of the battery voltage measurement system. A regulator generates a constant voltage based on a battery voltage, and inputs the constant voltage to an analog input terminal of an AID converter. The battery voltage is directly inputted to a reference voltage terminal of the AID converter via a terminal (a pad). The A/D converter uses the battery voltage as a reference voltage, determines the level of the input voltage which is the constant voltage, in respect to the reference voltage, and outputs a conversion result. The conversion results increase with a decrease in the battery voltage. Accordingly, the battery voltage is measured and monitored by a processing section on the basis of the conversion results. | 05-17-2012 |
