Abstract: A pressure-driven engine is provided therein with an intake valve and an exhaust valve the opening and closing operations of which are controlled by a combination of the urging force of the respective springs and the attractive force of the respective magnets. The engine automatically repeats reciprocating motion merely by supplying a pressure source such as steam or various kinds of compression gas. The reciprocating motion or the rotational motion converted from the reciprocating motion is utilized as a power.

Abstract: The new organo-titanium compound offered by this invention is an alkoxy titanium acylate derivative with a coordinated phosphite diester (phosphonate diester), and a useful compound as an effective component for a surface treating agent.The said compound is applied to the surface of a solid substance, particularly of a filler to be added to a polymer system, for modifying the surface of the filler.The application of the said compound to a composite system consisting of an organic medium and a filler allows to reduce the viscosity of the composite system, to improve the dispersion of the filler in the composite system and to improve the mechanical properties of the cured substance of the composite system.
