  • Patent number: 7388574
    Abstract: A pointing device is provided which facilitates the assembly, achieves downsizing and has a long life. Magnetic sensors 21 are placed symmetrically two by two along an X axis and Y axis on a printed circuit board 24. A switch 28 is placed on a silicone resin 23 side surface of the printed circuit board 24 to provide a switch function achieved by depressing a magnet cover 25 toward the magnet 22. The pointing device, a device for outputting coordinate values of an input point, can not only output the coordinate values, but also make a decision by the switch function. A silicone resin 23 is easy to deform caused by an external force, and returns its initial state without the applied external force as soon as the external force is removed.

  • Publication number: 20070039177
    Abstract: A method of regenerating gas-turbine stator vane comprising the steps of: grinding the oxidized layer and the cracks 2 formed at surface portion so that a part of the cracks 2 remains; filling an equivalent material and a brazing material 4 into the ground portion, the equivalent material 3 having an equality with the base material 1 for the stator vane, and the brazing material 4 having a melting point lower than that of the equivalent material 3; heat treating the filled portion under pressurized inert gas atmosphere so as to melt the brazing material; performing brazing treatment by diffusing the molten brazing material into the cracked portions. According to the above method, the stator vane occurred with material deterioration and damages or the like due to operation of a gas turbine can be efficiently regenerated to provide a high quality without requiring to completely grinding and removing the cracks including a closed crack formed at surface of the stator vane.

  • Patent number: 7106046
    Abstract: A current measuring method capable of reducing the size of a current sensor while ensuring electric insulation easily and suitable for enhancing reliability by preventing heat generation. A current measuring device comprises a printed board (3) having a conductor for measurement (4), and a noncontact current sensor (100) being mounted on the printed board (3), wherein the current sensor (100) is mounted on the surface (92) of the printed board (3) opposite to the side provided with the conductor for measurement (4). Since the current sensor (100) is mounted on the rear surface (92), electric insulation between the secondary conductor of the current sensor (100) and the conductor for measurement (4) can be ensured relatively easy.

  • Patent number: 5966925
    Abstract: A method of controlling a gas turbine electric power plant comprises the steps of: prescribing the relationship between a time elapsed after a predetermined reference time (e.g., ignition time) in a predetermined process (e.g., the starting process) and a revolution speed of a turbine shaft in accordance with a first function (7); prescribing the relationship between a revolution speed of the turbine shaft and a flow rate of fuel to be supplied to a combustor (4) in accordance with a second function (10); measuring an actual revolution speed of the turbine shaft at the time elapsed; rotating the turbine shaft by a starting equipment (6) for driving the turbine shaft in such a way that the measured actual revolution speed becomes the revolution speed corresponding to the time elapsed prescribed in accordance with the first function; and obtaining a flow rate of fuel corresponding to the actual revolution speed in accordance with the second function, to supply the obtained fuel flow rate to the combustor (4).
