Abstract: An exhaust purification device for an engine comprises a catalyst device that purifies the exhaust gas of the engine by using an additive; a venturi-shaped mixing chamber that is disposed upstream from the catalyst device and extends from a taper portion with a diameter tapering downstream to continue to a constricted portion with a minimum diameter and then to a flared portion with a diameter that is increased in the downstream direction; a swirl-generating device that is disposed in vicinity of a most upstream section of the taper portion of the mixing chamber and generates a swirling flow in the exhaust gas; and an additive-injection device that is disposed upstream from the constricted portion of the mixing chamber and downstream from the swirl-generating device, and injects the additive into the mixing chamber.

Abstract: Disclosed is an exhaust purification device for an internal combustion engine provided with a venturi-shaped mixing chamber (13) upstream of a NOx catalyst (16), said mixing chamber (13) formed continuously from a tapering part (13a) along which the radius decreases in the downstream direction, a waist part (13b) at which the radius is at smallest, and a widening part (13c) along which the radius increases in the downstream direction. A vane plate (18) and an aqueous urea solution spray nozzle (19) are arranged inside the tapering part (13a).

Abstract: In the function-selecting scene, if one of component keys of a function-selecting key is touched by a user's finger, a cursor is shifted to an item corresponding to the component key touched by the user's finger (S4). If the user gives a push at the same key (S5), the item specified by the cursor is definitely fixed, and steps assigned to the selected item are successively executed (S6). If the user's finger touches the next component key of the function selecting key, the cursor is shifted to the other item corresponding to the next component key (S4). Since information to be inputted is definitely fixed when the user pushes down the key touched by his finger, he can decide to input information, only watching the display and without seeing the keys.

Abstract: In a communication apparatus, a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 4 determines whether or not a message codeword included in a received message begins with a background picture display command. If a background picture display commands heads the message codeword, the CPU 4 reads a background picture designated by a symbol following the command out of a ROM (Read Only Memory) 7. If the message codeword includes a fixed sentence command, then the CPU 4 reads a fixed sentence designated by a symbol following the command out of a ROM 8. Each fixed sentence is associated a particular background picture stored in the ROM 7 and is displayed in a particular format in the background picture. As a result, each fixed sentence read out of the ROM 8 is displayed in a particular area on the basis of a background picture read out of the ROM 7. Further, when the message codeword includes a position command or a font command, the CPU 4 controls the position or the font of characters to be displayed in accordance with the command.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for creating knitted garments comprising steps of forming an entirely deployed pattern having a deployed shape which can be obtained by flattening an entire predetermined three-dimensional design of a garment to be knitted, dividing the entirely deployed pattern into a plurality of divided areas to form pattern pieces, creating knitted pieces which conform to each shape of the pattern pieces, and forming the predetermined design of garments by joining the knitted pieces to each other based on an arrangement of the divided areas. According to the present invention, since the entirely deployed pattern is formed based on the three-dimensional design which fits to the contours of the wearer, the knitted garment snugly fits and allows easy movement of the body.
