Abstract: A high-pressure tank liner manufacturing device includes: a heater to heat and melt end surfaces of liner halves; a heater transportation mechanism configured to slidably move the heater between a waiting position for the heater and a heating position for the heater; an elevation mechanism (drive mechanism) configured to drive a pair of the liner halves so as to cause the pair of liner halves to be relatively moved closer to each other or away from each other; and a parallelism adjustment mechanism configured to adjust parallelism of the end surfaces of the liner halves in accordance with the heater being slidably moved.

Abstract: A patterned transparent conductor includes: (1) a substrate; (2) first additives at least partially embedded into a surface of the substrate within a first area of the surface corresponding to a lower sheet resistance portion; and (3) second additives at least partially embedded into the surface of the substrate within a second area of the surface corresponding to a higher sheet resistance portion. A sheet resistance of the higher sheet resistance portion is at least 100 times a sheet resistance of the lower sheet resistance portion.

Abstract: A patterned transparent conductor includes a substrate and additives at least partially embedded into at least one surface of the substrate and localized adjacent to the surface according to a pattern to form higher sheet conductance portions. The higher sheet conductance portions are laterally adjacent to lower sheet conductance portions.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of adjusting a liquid crystal display device including a liquid crystal display panel having a liquid crystal layer, and a control portion which controls a display state of the liquid crystal display panel, the method comprising preparing plural kinds of gradation information concerning correlation between voltages to be applied to the liquid crystal layer and gradations of display in the liquid crystal display panel, and selecting desired gradation information from the plural kinds of gradation information to set the desired information in the control portion.

Abstract: A mobile radio communication apparatus includes a switch which outputs a strength of a received radio frequency signal or a power strength of a radio frequency signal in accordance with an input of a switch control signal supplied from a switch control circuit. The switch control signal is supplied during a transmission time slot allotted to the mobile radio communication apparatus by the base station so that the switch outputs the power strength of the radio frequency signals in the same period of the transmission time slot and the strength of a received radio frequency signals in the same period of an other time slot. The strength of the received radio frequency signals and the power strength of the radio frequency signals are supplied to an analog-to-digital converter which converts the applied signal into a digital signal and supplies the digitalized signal to a level detector.

Abstract: A radio communication apparatus for use in a time division multiple access (TDMA) communication system prevents signals from being transmitted through a transmitter in response to recognition that the transmitter operates during an unassigned time slot. A controller is utilized to recognize that the transmitter operates during the unassigned time slot. Power to the transmitter is disconnected in response to the recognition.
