The apparatus has an oxidation catalyst unit ( | 10-02-2008 |
20090030306 | Endoscope Shape Detecting Apparatus - A detecting apparatus includes: a change-over switch for switching on/off display of a scope model on a liquid crystal monitor; a position calculating portion for calculating respective positions of source coils; a scope model generating portion for generating a scope model of an electronic endoscope based on the respective positions of the source coils calculated by the position calculating portion; and a selector for selectively outputting to the liquid crystal monitor a display-pause-time image stored in a display-pause-time image storing portion and a scope model image from the scope model generating portion; and a control portion for controlling each of these portions. The detecting apparatus thus displays an insertion shape of the endoscope at a timing as needed. | 01-29-2009 |
20090053829 | ABSORPTION PAD FOR IMMUNOASSAY, STRIP FOR IMMUNOASSAY AND IMMUNOASSAY APPARATUS - Providing an absorption pad which shows remarkable water absorptivity and can shorten a detection time when employed for an immunoassay apparatus. A water absorption pad for the immunoassay apparatus, containing 50% by weight or more of silicon-containing particles wherein a moisture absorptivity is 30% or less at a humidity of 60% or less and a moisture absorptivity is 40% or more at a humidity of 90% or more, a strip for an immunoassay using said absorption pad as a suction part, and an immunoassay apparatus including said strip for the immunoassay. | 02-26-2009 |
20090234223 | Surgery Assisting Apparatus and Treatment Assisting Apparatus - According to the invention, an endoscope system as a surgery assisting apparatus includes a surgery apparatus for performing treatment by abdominal operation procedure on a region to be treated in a body of a patient, and a luminal organ shape detecting apparatus used for assisting (supporting) the abdominal operation procedure. The luminal organ shape detecting apparatus is used as blood vessel position notifying means when procedure is performed by inserting a probe as a luminal organ insertion probe into a blood vessel, for example. This allows the luminal organ irrespective of the treatment to be easily and surely detected and enables a smooth procedure to be performed. | 09-17-2009 |
20090249772 | EXHAUST GAS PURIFICATION DEVICE - An exhaust gas purification device is provided. The device includes: in an exhaust gas passage for a combustion exhaust gas containing a nitrogen oxide, a hydrocarbon, and an oxygen in a larger amount than a theoretical reaction amount with respect to the hydrocarbon to flow therethrough, in order from upstream, a first catalyst part for selectively reducing a nitrogen oxide; a plasma discharge part for generating a plasma; a second catalyst part for selectively reducing a nitrogen oxide; and a purifying catalyst part for purifying a reducing agent. | 10-08-2009 |
20090287047 | ENDOSCOPE APPARATUS - To facilitate a connection operation between a signal processing device and an endoscope apparatus in which a processing system that performs signal processing of image pickup signals of an electronic endoscope and a processing system that calculates an insertion shape of the endoscope are integrated, a scope connector | 11-19-2009 |
20110167818 | EXHAUST HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM - In a case of a refrigerant amount being short when a Rankine cycle starts operating, because the pressure difference does not occur across a refrigerant pump, refrigerant cannot be injected from a bypass circuit to the Rankine cycle, and therefore super-cooling degree cannot be controlled. An exhaust heat recovery system is provided that can adjust the super-cooling degree even in the case of the pressure difference not occurring across the refrigerant pump. The system includes a refrigerant tank, for storing refrigerant, which is connected by pipes to the low-pressure circuit side and the high-pressure circuit side of the Rankine cycle through a low-pressure-side valve and a high-pressure-side valve, respectively, and a temperature adjuster for adjusting internal temperature of the refrigerant tank. | 07-14-2011 |
20120090317 | EXHAUST HEAT REGENERATION SYSTEM - An exhaust heat regeneration system includes: an evaporator for cooling engine cooling water; an expansion device for expanding the refrigerant heated through the evaporator so as to generate a driving force; a condenser for cooling the refrigerant passing through the expansion device to condense the refrigerant; and a pump for pressure-feeding the refrigerant cooled through the condenser to the evaporator, in which: the expansion device is coupled to the pump by a shaft, and the expansion device and the pump are housed within the same casing to constitute a pump-integrated type expansion device; and the pump includes a high-pressure chamber through which the refrigerant to be discharged to the evaporator flows, the high-pressure chamber being provided on the expansion device side, or a low-pressure chamber through which the refrigerant flowing from the condenser flows, the low-pressure chamber being provided on the expansion device side. | 04-19-2012 |
20120180984 | HEAT-ACCUMULATING HOT-WATER-SUPPLYING AIR CONDITIONER - A first circulation channel connects a first heat demand part and first supply heat exchanger with its forward route and return route. Supply and discharge channels are connected to a first heat accumulation tank, which accommodates a second heat medium heated in the first supply heat exchanger and supplied via the supply channel. A heat accumulation switching valve changes over communication of the second heat medium serving as hot heat or cold heat flowing from the first supply heat exchanger and supplied to the first heat demand part without branching to the supply channel or branching to the supply channel and supplied to the first heat accumulation tank. A heat-accumulating hot-water-supplying air conditioner operates at a first temperature when the second heat medium from the first supply heat exchanger branches to the supply channel, and at a second lower temperature when the second heat medium does not branch to the supply channel. | 07-19-2012 |
20130265074 | PROBE AND PROBE CARD - A probe is provided with a linear main body portion having a tip in contact with an electrode of a member to be tested in a state where a board-side end is in contact with the circuit board side of a probe card. An elastic support portion is provided on a board-side end portion of the main body portion and elastically supports the main body portion on the probe card side. The support portion has its base end side integrally fixed to the board-side end portion and is formed with the distal end side directed toward the tip portion of the main body portion and curved having an arc shape toward the main body portion side. Two pieces of the support portion are provided symmetrically on both sides sandwiching the board-side end portion and are configured by being curved, each having an arc shape with the same radius of curvature. | 10-10-2013 |
