Patent number: 8030590Abstract: A gas-circuit breaker includes a cylinder, a stationary piston, and a moving piston. The cylinder has a moving contact that is fixed on one end of a rod and has a gas exhaust that faces a stationary contact. The rod is inserted into the cylinder. The stationary piston is fixed to the container, and is fitted in an opening of the cylinder to create a puffer chamber. Due to movement of the rod, the stationary piston compresses arc-extinguishing gas, and the gas blows onto the arc through gas exhaust. The moving piston partitions the puffer chamber into a first puffer chamber and a second puffer chamber. Sliding of the moving piston changes the capacity of the first puffer chamber and the second puffer chamber according to the difference in pressure in the first puffer chamber and the second puffer chamber.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2007Date of Patent: October 4, 2011Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Daisuke Yoshida, Yuji Yoshitomo, Haruhiko Kohyama

Patent number: 7902696Abstract: A target-closing phase-map generating section generates in advance a target closing phase map in consideration of a pre-arc characteristic and variations of a mechanical action of a breaker, and amplitude fluctuations of the load voltage. A target-closing time calculating section calculates a target closing time string from frequencies and phases of the power source voltage and the load voltage, respectively, of the breaker referring to the target closing phase map. A closing control section, when a close command 11 is inputted, controls the timing of outputting a closing control signal based on a predicted closing time and the target closing time string.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2007Date of Patent: March 8, 2011Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Hiroyuki Tsutada, Takashi Hirai, Haruhiko Kohyama, Kenji Kamei

Process for producing polyester, polyester produced using said process, and polyester molded product
Patent number: 7868126Abstract: This invention provides a polyester and a polyester molded product, which, while maintaining color tone, transparency, and thermal stability, can realize a high polycondensation rate, are less likely to cause the production of polycondensation catalyst-derived undesired materials, and can simultaneously meet both quality and cost effectiveness requirements, which can exhibit the characteristic features, for example, in the fields of ultrafine fibers, high transparent films for optical use, or ultrahigh transparent molded products. These advantages can be realized by using, in the production of a polyester in the presence of an aluminum compound-containing polyester polycondensation catalyst, an aluminum compound having an absorbance of not more than 0.0132 as measured in the form of an aqueous aluminum compound solution, prepared by dissolving the aluminum compound in pure water to give a concentration of 2.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2005Date of Patent: January 11, 2011Assignee: Toyo Boseki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Katsuhiko Kageyama, Tooru Kitagawa, Kenichi Funaki, Masaki Fuchikami, Kazuo Katayose, Takahiro Nakajima, Toshiyuki Tsuchiya, Satoru Nakagawa, Fumikazu Yoshida, Haruhiko Kohyama, Naoki Watanabe -
Patent number: 7763821Abstract: A puffer-type gas blast circuit breaker is capable of restraining reduction in creepage insulation resistance of an insulating support and an insulating rod due to insulating gas of high temperature. An electrode section is mounted on a stationary member supported on an insulating support, and a stationary side arc contact and moving side arc contact are disposed facing each other to contact and separate; a hollow piston rod and an insulating rod are connected to the moving side arc contact, and inserted in a stationary member body portion; and a gas flow blocking member is mounted on an end of the piston rod to prevent an insulating gas heated and coming to the stationary side from getting into the insulating rod side. The stationary member body portion is formed cylindrical so that a gap between the body portion of the stationary member and the gas flow blocking member is minimized.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2007Date of Patent: July 27, 2010Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Yuji Yoshitomo, Daisuke Yoshida, Haruhiko Kohyama

Patent number: 7259947Abstract: Respective contact terminals in respective arc-suppressing spaces of respective breakers are opened at a voltage zero point of any phase of three phases, simultaneously among the three phases. If current breaking is carried out for the three phases at the same time, when the breakers of the three phases are opened, the residual magnetic levels of the respective phases of a transformer can be controlled so that the residual magnetic flux level of the phase opened at the voltage zero point is maximum (for example, ?2K or +2K) and the residual magnetic flux level of the other two phases are opposite in polarity to the residual magnetic flux level of the phase concerned and equal to substantially the same residual magnetic flux (for example, +K and +K or ?K and ?K) which is equal to about one half of the residual magnetic flux level of the phase concerned.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2005Date of Patent: August 21, 2007Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Sadayuki Kinoshita, Hiroki Ito, Haruhiko Kohyama, Kenji Kamei
