  • Publication number: 20220390069
    Abstract: Disclosed is a corner structure of a liquefied gas storage tank, wherein the corner structure is installed at a corner of the storage tank for storing liquefied gas to support sealing walls. The corner structure includes: a stationary member secured to an inner surface of a hull structure wall; a movable member disposed on the stationary member such that the sealing walls are joined thereto; and an insulating member interposed between the sealing walls and the hull structure wall. The stationary member includes a stationary member body bent at a curved portion thereof in an opposite direction to the movable member, and the movable member includes a movable member body bent at a bent portion thereof in an opposite direction to the stationary member. The stationary member and the movable member are coupled to each other by a fastening member that penetrates the curved portion and the bent portion.

  • Patent number: 8886063
    Abstract: An image forming apparatus is provided. The image forming apparatus includes a developing unit which contains a mixture of toner and carrier, a toner sensor which is disposed in the developing unit, and a controller which determines a control voltage for the toner sensor using change information on a change in a quantity of electric charge which changes according to a time during which the image forming apparatus is used or paused, and drives the toner sensor using the determined control voltage and compensates for an output value of the toner sensor. Accordingly, toner can be prevented from being supplied excessively.
