Patent number: 10749191Abstract: A fuel cell comprises a membrane electrode assembly configured such that electrode catalyst layers are formed on respective surfaces of an electrolyte membrane; gas diffusion layers placed on respective surfaces of the membrane electrode assembly; and a frame placed around periphery of the membrane electrode assembly. The membrane electrode assembly has a protruding portion that is configured by protruding outside of the gas diffusion layer in a state that the membrane electrode assembly is combined with the gas diffusion layers. The frame has an engagement portion that is configured to engage with the protruding portion. An adhesive layer is formed from an ultraviolet curable adhesive between the protruding portion and the engagement portion.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2019Date of Patent: August 18, 2020Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Kotaro Ikeda, Hikaru Hasegawa, Naohiro Asada, Makoto Yoshida, Tomokazu Hayashi, Michihisa Mochizuki

Publication number: 20130312348Abstract: A form used in a concrete platform is configured so that a connecting member is detachably attached so that top end parts of a concrete side walls are connected with the connecting member. The connecting member is for connecting the top end parts of the concrete side walls to form the load portion by pouring concrete into the form. The form includes reinforcement members provided to extend linearly in a longitudinal direction inside the concrete side walls and inside a concrete bottom plate. The connecting member has an elongated member that is formed to have substantially same length as a width of a gap between the pair of concrete side walls of the form, and an adjusting part that enables an attachment part to move along a top surface of a table-deck portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2013Publication date: November 28, 2013Applicant: MITSUBISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES, LTD.Inventors: Naohiro ASADA, Yumi TANAKA, Takeo TAKAKURA

Patent number: 5657734Abstract: A fuel evaporative-gas emission preventing apparatus capable of reducing the quantity of adsorption of a canister as low as possible by a single breather at any fueling speeds and allowing emissions to fall within given limits. One end of the breather is coupled to a portion near a port of an inlet pipe for a fuel tank and a differential pressure regulating valve is connected to the other end of the breather. The canister is coupled to the differential pressure regulating valve. An opening-area variable device is provided at an intermediate portion of the breather and adjusts the quantity of a fuel evaporative-gas in the breather according to an internal pressure of the fuel tank.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 1995Date of Patent: August 19, 1997Assignee: Toyota Jidosha Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Hiroyuki Sawamoto, Naohiro Asada, Katsuyuki Kido
