The reformer connects with the after burner, the first heat exchanging unit and the second heat exchanging unit separately.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is the use of an extract from an Aster species for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation. The extract is extracted from fresh and/or dried roots and rhizomes of a Tatarian aster (Aster tartaricus) plant, in which the extraction uses water or 40-95% (v/v) ethanol as an extractant to obtain an extraction mixture. In some embodiments, the extraction mixture is then eluted with water followed by at least one eluent.

Abstract: Disclosed is an extract of Perilla frutescens seeds that contains rosmarinic acid, luteolin, and apigenin, the weight ratio between rosmarinic acid, luteolin, and apigenin being 0.1-200:0.1-200:1. Also disclosed is a method for treating a psychiatric disorder using the above-described extract or an extract of Perilla frutescens seeds containing at least an active agent selected from the group consisting of rosmarinic acid, luteolin, and apigenin.

Abstract: A method for compensating frequency response of an actuator in an optical disc drive is provided. The present invention utilizes the temperature sensor within the optical pick-up head to sense work temperature. When the work temperature rises to a presetting threshold value, the servo system will induce the appropriated equalizer to compensate the frequency response of the actuator according to this work temperature, such that the servo controlling of the optical disc drive can operate accurately both in the high temperature condition and in the low temperature condition.

Abstract: In a writing control method of an optical recording/reproducing apparatus, a data-writing operation is performed at a rotating speed. Meanwhile, an error signal is generated in response to a wobble signal. The error signal is periodically sampled. A counting value is obtained by accumulatively counting whenever the level of the error signal exceeds a threshold. The subsequent data-writing operation is performed at an increased rotating speed when the accumulatively counting value obtained within a preset period of time is no greater than a first preset value. The error signal can be a tracking error signal and/or a focusing error signal.

Abstract: A cable-type actuator assembly for a cycling exerciser having a cable operated resistance adjustment mechanism and a cable operated braking system. The actuator assembly includes a caliper actuation cable operably connected to a caliper that acts on a wheel of the cycling exerciser. An actuator is mounted to the frame of the exerciser, and retains the distal ends of a brake cable and a resistance adjustment cable and is connected to a forward end of the caliper actuation cable. Actuation of either the brake cable or resistance adjustment cable moves the actuator, thereby actuating the caliper actuation cable.
