Abstract: A differential pressure regulating valve is disposed in a fluid passage. The differential pressure regulating valve includes a valve chamber, a valve hole, a valve body, a support member and an urging member. The valve chamber is formed in the fluid passage and having a cylindrical shape. The valve hole is formed in the fluid passage as an opening which communicates with the valve chamber. The valve body is disposed in the valve chamber and adapted to open and close the valve hole. The support member is fixedly mounted to the valve chamber and extending across flowing direction of the fluid in the valve chamber. The support member has a communication passage for fluid communication between a first valve chamber and a second valve chamber. The urging member is disposed between the support member and the valve body for urging the valve body toward the valve hole.

The case has a main body formed from a resin and covering at least the compression unit, and a mounting portion that is provided integrally with the main body and configured to be mounted to the attachment section. The mounting portion has a tubular body provided integrally with the main body and a fastening member inserted into the tubular body for mounting the tubular body to the attachment section. The main body is interposed between the compression unit and the tubular body.

Abstract: A motor-driven compressor includes an electric motor, a compression mechanism, which compresses gas by being driven by the electric motor, and a body accommodating the electric motor and the compression mechanism. The motor-driven compressor includes a motor control section, which drives the electric motor by controlling power supply to the electric motor, a vibration control section, which generates a waveform in a phase opposite to the waveform of vibration predicted to be generated in the body due to the driving of the electric motor, and a vibration applying device, which is located on the body and applies vibration in the opposite phase generated by the vibration control section to the body.

Abstract: A scroll type compressor has a fixed scroll member, a movable scroll member, an oil reservoir, a back-pressure chamber, an oil extraction passage, a flow passage, and a partition wall. The back-pressure chamber disposed behind the movable scroll member is in communication with a discharge chamber. The oil extraction passage having a regulating valve or a throttle connects the back-pressure chamber to the oil reservoir. The oil return passage and the flow passage connect the oil reservoir to a suction chamber, respectively. The flow passage introduces excess lubricating oil into the suction chamber when the level of lubricating oil in the oil reservoir becomes higher than a predetermined level. The partition wall disposed between the openings of the oil extraction passage for restricting lubricating oil from the oil extraction passage other than the excess lubricating oil collected in the oil reservoir from flowing to the flow passage.

Abstract: The board issuing/managing system is provided with a processing unit to manage a board ID number and a processing unit to write a coded ID number into board data. Further, the certificate issuing system is provided with a processing unit to give an electronic signature of a certificate issuer to associated data to be written over the board data; a processing unit to transform encrypted associated data into code information that can be read by an information processing device; a processing unit to insert the board ID number as an electronic watermark when the associated data includes image data; and a processing unit to arrange the code information, the image data and the associated data on the board so that they do not overlap each other.

Abstract: A certificate issuing method includes inputting individual information of a certificate issuance requester, creating electronic data of a board having a background pattern that differs from certificate to certificate on a part thereof, overwriting individual information on the background pattern in the electronic data of the board with characters, entering a relation between the background pattern and the overwritten characters onto the board, and printing the electronic data as a certificate.

Abstract: A certificate method and system for issuing a certificate and verification thereof. The method of issuing includes utilization of a computer in which individual information of a certificate issuance requester is inputted, writing the individual information is written on electronic data of a board by using characters, and painting out a background portion of the individual information written with the characters, by using a plurality of colors according to a first predetermined rule. Further, the background portion of the individual information written with the characters is re-painted, according to a second predetermined rule by using information that differs from certificate to certificate, a certificate identification number and the information that differs from certificate to certificate is stored, the certificate identification number into is entered the electronic data of the board, and printing is effected of the electronic data as a certificate.

Abstract: A therapeutic agent for treatment of acute lung injury, especially acute respiratory distress syndrome and adult respiratory distress syndrome, resulting from indirect causes, especially the sepsis syndrome, severe nonthoracic trauma, hypertransfusion during emergency resuscitation, and an artificial cardiopulmonary bypass surgery, and a therapeutic agent for hypoxemia in acute lung injury, said agents comprising anti-IL-8 antibody as an active ingredient.

Abstract: A television telephone including a movable head section, a support section and a bottom section. The movable head section includes an imaging device for inputting images and a display for displaying images.

Abstract: A facsimile apparatus has a transparent plate on which a document may be located. The document is then scanned by a scanner which includes electronic solid state light generation means e.g. LEDs which illuminate the document, with the light reflected from the document being detected by a detector. An electronic signal corresponding to an image of the document may then be transmitted to a remote location. Alternately, the facsimile apparatus may be used to copy the document. Cut paper sheets are withdrawn from storage and an image printed thereon by a heat transfer system in which a film of ink is selectively heated. Paper on which an image has been printed is then received on the upper surface of the storage. The facsimile apparatus may also have a document transporter for moving a document past the scanner with the scanner fixed.
