Abstract: A beverage supplying device, wherein the device is provided with a controller for discharging the beverage selected from multiple types of beverages from a prescribed nozzle, and a storage unit for storing data that indicates the dilution ratio of each of the beverages, the remaining amount of each of the syrups, and the supply amount per container of the beverage. The controller calculates the discharge amount per container of syrup used to produce the selected beverage on the basis of the data indicating the dilution ratio of the selected beverage, and the data indicating the supply amount per container of the beverage. Next, the controller calculates the number of selected beverages available for sale on the basis of the data indicating the remaining amount of syrup used to produce the selected beverage and the calculated discharge amount, and displays available-for-sale numbers.

Abstract: A beverage supplying device comprising: a touch panel for receiving an operation for selecting a main syrup constituting a main beverage, and a topping syrup added as flavoring to the main beverage; a second syrup solenoid valve for opening and closing a passage for supplying the topping syrup that is stored under pressure in a syrup tank; a second syrup pump for intermittently supplying the topping syrup while the second syrup solenoid valve is open, the second syrup pump being provided to the passage for supplying the topping syrup between the syrup tank and the second syrup solenoid valve; and a nozzle for producing the main beverage by mixing the main syrup with water or carbonated water at a prescribed ratio, and producing a beverage by mixing the topping syrup with the main beverage without diluting the topping syrup.

Abstract: A beverage supply apparatus may include a touch panel for receiving an operation to select a main syrup from among different types of syrups stored in a number of syrup tank that is diluted with water or carbonated water to form a main beverage and for receiving an operation to select a topping syrup that is added to the main beverage as a flavor. The beverage supply apparatus also may include a nozzle in which the main beverage is produced by mixing water or carbonated water with the main syrup in a predetermined ratio and then the undiluted topping syrup is mixed with the main beverage to produce a beverage.

Abstract: A detection apparatus having means for evaluating generation and disappearance of a carrier is provided. A detection apparatus detects, on the basis of high-order harmonics, an electric field distribution or a carrier distribution between electrodes arranged on an object to be observed.

Abstract: A solid electrolytic capacitor element includes an anode foil, a solid electrolytic layer, a cathode foil, and a connection portion. The anode foil is composed of valve metal and has at least one through hole passing therethrough in thickness direction thereof. The solid electrolytic layer is made of conductive polymer and is provided on a surface of the anode foil. The cathode foil is provided on a surface of the solid electrolytic layer. The connection portion is provided in the through hole and electrically connects a first solid electrolytic layer and a second solid electrolytic layer, the first solid electrolytic layer being a region of the solid electrolytic layer on one face of the anode foil, the second solid electrolytic layer being another region of the solid electrolytic layer on the other face of the anode foil.

Abstract: A first phase comparator 22 of digital type and a second phase comparator 32 of sampling type are provided. Near a lock phase, an output current Iout2 is fed from the second phase comparator 32 to a voltage-controlled oscillator 14 through a change-over switch 40. In other phases, an output current Iout1 is fed thereto from the first phase comparator 22. When a reference signal fs is missing, a complementing circuit 50 complements a pulse to at least the reference signal fs input to the first phase comparator 22. A noise detecting/removing circuit 60 detects and removes noise from the reference signals fs, permits the reference signals fs to be fed to the first and second phase comparators 22 and 23, and halts the operations of the two phase comparators 22 and 32 for only a predetermined period of time after the noise has been detected.
