Abstract: A wire cover includes an inner cover member covering a bent section of an electric wire from an inner peripheral side and an outer cover member covering the bent section from an outer peripheral side. One end portion of the wire cover sandwiches the electric wire along a first direction. The other end portion of the wire cover sandwiches the electric wire along a second direction. The inner cover member and the outer cover member move relative to each other along the first direction. When observed from a third direction intersecting a plane that includes the first direction and the second direction, a first attachment portion and a second attachment portion are positioned outward of the surface of the inner cover body on the innermost side of the bent section or inward of the surface of the outer cover body on the outermost side of the bent section.

Abstract: The invention provides a combustion apparatus which can inhibit an NOx generation even in the case of promoting a mixing between a high-temperature combustion gas and an air so as to intend to reduce an unburned combustible. In a combustion apparatus provided with a burner burning a fuel within a furnace in a theoretical air ratio or less, and an air port supplying a combustion air for a shortfall in the burner, a supply apparatus for supplying a nitrogen oxide generation inhibiting gas is provided in a mixing region between the both or near the mixing region. Further, the invention provides a wind box which can inhibit an NOx generation even in the case of promoting a mixing between a high-temperature combustion gas and an air so as to intend to reduce an unburned combustible.

Abstract: A catalytic exhaust gas decomposition spirals an exhaust gas containing therein a substance to be decomposed and a reactant gas, rectifies the spiral flow, and lets the substance to be decomposed react with the reactant gas after the spiral flow has been rectified. For rectifying the spiral flow of the exhaust gas and the reactant gas, a plate-like baffle wall has therein a through hole at a portion near its center. The spiral flow is allowed to pass through the through hole so as to be centralized temporarily. The spiral flow then passes through an enlarged section of a flow path downstream of the through hole before being introduced into the catalyst bed. The method helps minimize variations in gas velocity of the exhaust gas flowing into the catalyst bed, thereby allowing a desired decomposition rate to be obtained substantially consistently.

The dose detector detects that the semiconductor radiation detector is outputting white noise even in a radiation shielded area and judges that the semiconductor radiation detector is working in a normal manner when dose count data from the dose counter is smaller than predetermined dose boundary data and check count data from the check counter is greater than predetermined lower limit checking data. The dose detector and a dosimeter provided with the dose detector are simple in structure and capable of checking a status of the semiconductor radiation detector safely.

The spiral flow is allowed to pass through the through hole so as to be centralized temporarily. The spiral flow then passes through an enlarged section of a flow path downstream of the through hole before being introduced into the catalyst bed.
