  • Patent number: 9410090
    Abstract: Crude containing a comparatively large content of nickel, vanadium, or carbon residue is treated so as to supply a raw material to a downstream catalytic cracking process. A primary distillation tower fractionates first crude into a residue fraction partly used as raw oil of a catalytic cracking process and other fractions. A secondary distillation tower fractionates second crude containing a larger content of a catalytic poison with respect to catalysts used in the catalytic cracking process than the first crude into a light fraction included in a distillation temperature range of the other fractions and a heavy fraction as a rest thereof. A light fraction supply line supplies the light fraction to the primary distillation tower so as to be treated in the primary distillation tower.

  • Patent number: 6678023
    Abstract: A liquid crystal projector in which light is effectively used and an excellent picture can be obtained is provided. In the liquid crystal projector, dichroic mirrors arranged at different angles are used to separate white light into beams of light of three primary colors of R, G, and B, and the respective beams of light are incident on microlenses at different angles. The respective beams of light of the three primary colors are distributed by the microlenses to optical components corresponding to pixels, and highly collimated light beams can be obtained by the optical components. Since the highly collimated light beams are made incident on the pixels of the liquid crystal panel, the beams can be certainly made incident on desired pixels.

  • Publication number: 20030090616
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of producing a liquid crystal display unit, which is capable of shortening, at the time of adhesively bonding and fixing a transparent substrate to a liquid crystal panel, curing time by eliminating any heating treatment, thereby preventing degradation of the display quality and also improving the productivity. The production method is performed by bringing a transparent substrate into close-contact with a liquid crystal panel with a light-curing resin put therebetween, to form an assembly, and irradiating the assembly with ultraviolet light having a wavelength of 340 nm or more, to cure the light-curing resin for a short time. At this time, ultraviolet light having a wavelength ranging from 240 to 450 nm is emitted from an ultraviolet lamp, and an ultraviolet light component having a wavelength of less than 340 nm is shielded by a sharp cut filter.

  • Patent number: 5543942
    Abstract: The present invention discloses an opposed substrate for use in a liquid crystal display element, for example. The opposed substrate is constructed by a transparent substrate, microlenses formed on the substrate, a bonding layer, and cover glass. An alignment film and transparent electrodes are formed on the cover glass. The microlenses and the bonding layer are formed by selected resins which have thermal resistance to high temperatures not lower than 150.degree. C., permit heating treatment for forming the alignment film, and satisfy the difference in the refractive indexes between the resins, .increment.n.gtoreq.0.1, so as to enable the microlenses to have a numerical aperture not lower than 0.1. It is thus possible to prevent the decomposition of resins and separation of the microlens in heat treatment and to provide a high-quality, highly reliable liquid crystal display element.

  • Patent number: 5505804
    Abstract: In a method of producing a condenser lens substrate, after a first clear substrate and a second clear substrate where a micro-lens having a spherical surface or a lenticular lens is formed are stuck to each other, at least one of the clear substrates is ground. At this time, the clear substrate is ground so as to have a thickness that a focus of the micro-lens or the lenticular lens is positioned in the vicinity of the outer surface of the first or the second clear substrate. This makes it possible to form a micro-lens or a lenticular lens having a short focus in a substrate of a liquid crystal display element. As a result, when a condenser lens substrate is produced, a possibility of breakage of the clear substrate is eliminated, and handling and sticking of clear substrates become easy, thereby making it possible to improve mass-productivity of a condenser lens substrate.
