Abstract: An optical switch for switching between transmission and total reflection of incident light 101 applied to electro-optical crystal 104 by applying an electric field to electro-optical crystal 104 to thereby change the refractive index of electro-optical crystal 104 includes a plurality of electrodes 105 disposed in electro-optical crystal 104 to provide electrode assembly 106 for applying the electric field to electro-optical crystal 104. Electro-optical crystal 104 has a refractive index changing portion (not shown) whose refractive index is changed by the electric field applied by electrode assembly 106, the refractive index changing portion enclosing electrode assembly 106 in its entirety. The refractive index changing portion has a flat refractive index boundary.

Abstract: The operability of a fuel cell which uses a fuel cartridge housing a liquid fuel is improved. A fuel cartridge 1400 houses a liquid fuel 124. The fuel cartridge 1400 includes a gas-liquid separation film 1408 which divides a fuel housing section 1402 into a liquid housing chamber 1402a and a gas housing chamber 1402b. A fuel gas, which is the vaporized liquid fuel, is housed in the gas housing chamber 1402b. A gas exhaust pipe 1410 is connected to the gas housing chamber 1402b, and the fuel gas housed in the gas housing chamber 1402b is discharged to outside the fuel cartridge 1400 via a gas discharge port 1414.

Abstract: A fuel cell (100) is mounted with a fuel cartridge (1220) in a detachable manner. The fuel cartridge (1220) is provided with a connecting part (1225) and the fuel cell (100) is provided with a fitting part (1205) into which the connecting part (1225) is fitted. The fuel cell (100) identifies the fitted fuel cartridge (1220).

Abstract: A fuel cell has a fuel electrode and an oxidizing agent electrode, a fuel supply path that supplies a liquid fuel to the fuel electrode, an oxidizing agent supply path that supplies an oxidizing agent to the oxidizing agent electrode, and an opening/closing member that, by changing its shape, opens and closes the oxidizing agent supply path. The change in the shape of the opening/closing member regulates the opening and closing of the oxidizing agent supply path.

Abstract: A lubricative composition for industrial machinery and equipment which comprises a base oil selected from among mineral oils, fats and oils, synthetic oils and mixture of two or more of them, and at least one additive selected from among the following components (A) to (D): component (A): (A-1) a phosphorus-containing carboxylic acid and/or (A-2) a thiophosphoric ester, component (B): a dispersant viscosity index improver, component (C): (C-1) a specific amidocarboxylic acid compound and/or (C-2) a specific carboxylic acid compound, and component (D): an ester oiliness improver. The composition is favorable as a lubricating oil composition and useful as a gear oil composition, a lubricating oil composition for paper machines or a lubricating oil composition for slide guides, a hydraulic oil, or the like.
