  • Publication number: 20170333854
    Abstract: A dispersing device is provided by which a dispersion with a high yield and a proper dispersing process can be carried out. The dispersing device causes a mixture of a slurry or a liquid to flow by centrifugal force toward an outer circumference between a rotor and a stator. It comprises a container, a cover assembly that closes an upper opening of the container, a stator that is fixed under the cover assembly, a rotor that is disposed to face a lower surface of the stator, and an assembly for supplying the mixture that stores an unprocessed mixture to be supplied to a gap between the rotor and the stator. The assembly for supplying the mixture has a body, a first member for injecting the mixture, and a second member for injecting the mixture.

  • Patent number: 7522662
    Abstract: When a plurality of sub-processors are daisy chained in a loop, for example, to a main processor by a one-way bus, a command packet from the main processor addressed to itself is transmitted to the one-way bus which form a return path back to the main processor so as to easily specify a fault portion. If the command packet is returned to the main processor within a predetermined time, it is determined that no fault exists within the electronic device. When a fault exists, a test signal is transmitted to sub-processors via a dedicated signal line, separate from the one-way bus, to trigger a test packet that will be routed through the one way bus. The faulty portion in the electronic device is specified based on whether the test packet transmitted via the one-way bus in accordance with the test packet from each sub-processor is received within a predetermined time.

  • Patent number: 6553431
    Abstract: Each of input and output devices previously forms device profile, and a host computer acquires virtual input/output device information including a pair of ideal input and output devices on the basis of the device profiles of these devices. If the virtual input/output device information is acquired, the input device demands to acquire a transfer path profile included in the virtual input/output device information, and then demands if the transfer path profile is acquired the output device registered in the acquired transfer path profile to connect a line. If the line connection is established, the input device performs data inputting such that the acquired transfer path profile is reflected in the device setting, and then it transfers the input data to the desired output device.
