  • Patent number: 9120072
    Abstract: Provided is an ammonia detoxification device that, when detoxifying ammonia by thermal decomposition, is capable of preventing the generation of nitrogen oxides. That is, the problem is solved by configuring the ammonia detoxification device using: an electric heater; an ammonia decomposition chamber that accepts an ammonia-containing gas to be treated and thermally decomposes the ammonia in the absence of oxygen using heat from the electric heater; a thermally decomposed gas-burning chamber that accepts the nitrogen- and hydrogen-containing gas to be treated that has been generated by the thermal decomposition of the ammonia and discharged from the ammonia decomposition chamber, and an air-supplying means for supplying air from the outside into the thermally the thermally decomposed gas-burning chamber to burn the hydrogen.

  • Patent number: 7203583
    Abstract: An electric power steering unit includes: a steering mechanism for steering a wheel under the torque of a steering wheel; a motor for adding a steering assist power to the steering mechanism; a controller for controlling current to be conducted through the motor in accordance with a steering state; a storage element for storing a state of the controller; and initial value setting device for causing the storage device to store a state of the controller when IG (ignition switch) is changed to OFF, and for obtaining a process of overheat state of the controller or the motor to set an initial value of a current limit value to the motor when the IG is changed to ON. As a result, not only a load on a battery when IG is OFF is reduced but also the motor is efficiently driven at the start time.

  • Patent number: 7131795
    Abstract: A tool, a device, and a method for drilling capable of very easily forming a hole part in a drilled matter by extremely smoothly discharging chips produced at drilled positions so as to maintain an excellent drilling efficiency. By using a drilling tool having a shaft with a spiral groove part formed in the outer peripheral surface thereof and a bit fixed to the tip part of the shaft, the hole part is formed in a drilled matter by rotating the shaft.

  • Patent number: 4940450
    Abstract: A power transmission system transmits rotative power from a driver pulley to a driven pulley through a toothed belt. The tooth tips (27b) and/or tooth bottoms (27c) of teeth of at least the driven pulley (10) lie in a plane including a central axis l.sub.2 of rotation of the driven pulley and are inclined with respect to the central axis l.sub.2. When the toothed belt (14) is operated to transmit the rotative power, the position where teeth of the pulley (10) and teeth of the toothed belt (14) start meshing with each other is progressively displaced, thus lowering the level of impact sounds produced when the teeth mesh with each other.
