  • Patent number: 6847712
    Abstract: A reservation system and method are provided that allow a user, who wants to receive a telephone inquiry or consultation service but cannot get through because an operator's line is busy, to reliably receive the service by making a callback reservation with a time or condition specified over the Internet without needing further telephone calls. The user enters customer information, such as a customer ID, name, and telephone number, and a reservation time or a reservation condition and makes a reservation. A reservation acceptance unit accepts the reservation from the user and notifies the user of reservation completion. When a user-specified time has come or a user-specified condition is satisfied, a reservation monitor unit notifies an operator of the reservation request to prompt the operator to call up the user. After the operator starts request processing, a reservation-request-processing update unit updates a processing status of the reservation request.

  • Patent number: 5980711
    Abstract: An electrode is mounted in a vertical manner in an electrolytic liquid in an electrolytic cell. A harmful gas collecting hood is disposed within the electrolytic cell to cover the entire upper portion of the electrode. One end of a bottom surface of the hood lies at a higher location than the other end of the bottom surface of the hood. An inlet of a harmful gas treating pipe line is disposed in the vicinity of that portion of the bottom surface of the hood which lies at the higher location thereof. A harmful gas generated around the electrode is smoothly guided to the inlet by a guide effect of the hood and sucked into the inlet.

  • Patent number: 5972186
    Abstract: An electrolytic test machine includes an electrolytic cell in which an electrolytic liquid is stored so that a test material is immersed in the electrolytic liquid. An electrode is immersed in the electrolytic liquid. A DC power source supplies a current between the test material and the electrode. A treating pipe line extends from the electrolytic cell to collect a harmful gas which is generated from the electrolytic liquid during supplying of a current and which is released out of the electrolytic liquid, along with the electrolytic liquid. A harmful gas purifying device is disposed in the treating pipe line. The harmful gas purifying device includes a catalyst for purifying the harmful gas, and a determining device for determining the replacement time of the catalyst.
