Patent number: 9382815Abstract: A power generating system includes a flow dividing structure, a first detector, a flow dividing adjusting valve, a heat accumulator, a heat exchanger and a turbine. The flow dividing structure divides a first heat medium into a first flow path and a second flow path. The first detector detects a flow rate of the first heat medium. The flow dividing adjusting valve opens the second flow path when the flow rate of the first heat medium exceeds a predetermined value. The heat accumulator accumulates the first heat medium via the second flow path and delivers the first heat medium at a temporally leveled flow rate. The heat exchanger transfers heat from the first heat medium to a second heat medium having a lower boiling point than the first heat medium. The turbine rotationally moves by the second heat medium with heat having been transferred by the heat exchanging unit.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 2013Date of Patent: July 5, 2016Assignee: KABUSHIKI KAISHA TOSHIBAInventors: Mohammad Ashari Hadianto, Mikhail Rodionov, Nobuo Okita, Akihiro Taniguchi, Katsuya Yamashita, Osamu Furuya, Kazuo Takahata, Mikio Takayanagi

Publication number: 20150271988Abstract: A metering apparatus for distributing an agricultural product in a field has a meterbox configured for association with a hopper for receiving agricultural product from the hopper. A rotatable metering element is disposed within a chamber in the meterbox, and the rotating metering element is configured to deliver the agricultural product at a regulated rate from the hopper through the chamber to a product distribution line. Delivery of the agricultural product to the product distribution line may be selectively stopped by a reversibly inflatable seal between the metering element and an outlet to the distribution line, a reversible seal formed by contact between the metering element and an inlet from the hopper to the chamber, or a disengagement structure for disengaging the agricultural product from the metering element while the metering element continues to rotate.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 25, 2015Publication date: October 1, 2015Inventors: Geof J.

Publication number: 20140116046Abstract: A flasher separates a geothermal fluid into steam and hot water. A steam turbine is driven by being supplied with the separated steam as a working medium. An evaporator is supplied with the steam from the steam turbine as a first heating medium, which is thereafter supplied to a first preheater via the evaporator. A superheater is supplied with the hot water separated by the flasher as a second heating medium, which is thereafter supplied to a second preheater via the superheater. A medium turbine is driven by being supplied, as a working medium, with a low-boiling-point medium having been heat-exchanged sequentially in the first preheater, the second preheater, the evaporator, and the superheater. In the evaporator and the first preheater, the low-boiling-point medium and the first heating medium are heat-exchanged. In the superheater and the second preheater, the low-boiling-point medium and the second heating medium are heat-exchanged.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 21, 2013Publication date: May 1, 2014Applicant: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Mohammad Asahri HADIANTO, Akihiro TANIGUCHI, Mikhail RODIONOV, Nobuo OKITA, Shoko ITO, Katsuya YAMASHITA, Osamu FURUYA, Mikio TAKAYANAGI

Publication number: 20070120583Abstract: In a method and apparatus for using a clock generating circuit to minimize settling time after dynamic power supply voltage ramping, a clock signal may be generated using a clock generating circuit having, among other things, open feedback loop switch logic and a dynamic fast lock control signal generator. Whereupon, when in operation, the open feedback loop switch logic is responsive to a controlled change in power supply voltage condition such that a feedback loop of the clock generating circuit is opened during power supply voltage ramping (e.g., during transitions to or from battery conservation modes). In response to opening the feedback loop, the dynamic fast lock control signal generator selectively applies a stabilizing control signal to a variable clock signal generator (e.g., a voltage controlled oscillator) such that the generated clock signal can quickly lock onto the proper target frequency.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2005Publication date: May 31, 2007Applicant: ATI Technologies Inc.Inventors: Shirley Lam, Nancy Chan, Mikhail Rodionov, Ramesh Senthinathan
