  • Patent number: 7755267
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to prevent a device portion from being electrostatically charged with the use of the high resistivity film, and at the same time prevent a leak current passing the device portion due to an existing high resistivity film, in an electron source with the use of a surface-conduction electron-emitting device. This process for manufacturing the electron-emitting device comprises the steps of: forming an electroconductive thin film 4 astride device electrodes; forming the high resistivity film 7 in a region except the electroconductive thin film 4 and a perimeter thereof; subjecting the electroconductive thin film 4 to forming processing, to form a fissure 5 therein; and depositing a carbon film 6 inside the fissure 5 and in a region reaching the high resistivity film 7 from the edge of the fissure 5, by applying voltage between device electrodes 2 and 3 under an atmosphere containing a carbon compound.

  • Patent number: 6132136
    Abstract: A drainage water pumping system. A number of drainage pumps are positioned at two different levels. Drainage water flowing into a drainage water pumping system from an underground inflow main pipeline is pumped to a discharge destination. Preferably the drainage pumps installed at the lower installation level have a high pump head and a small capacity, while the drainage pumps installed at the higher installation level have a low pump head and a large capacity. The drainage pumps can be in a circular arrangement with a congregated delivery pipeline installed lengthwise at the center of the circular arrangement and having each of the drainage pumps connected to it.

  • Patent number: 6102618
    Abstract: An underground water channel is provided in an underground of a large depth, and rain water and the like flow into this underground channel from flood control channels, conduits and rivers through vertical shafts. A pump well of a pump station is connected to a downstream end of the underground channel, and water flowing into the pump well is discharged by a pump to a discharge tank. The pump is disposed generally at a medium water level of the underground channel, and a lowest water level L.W.L enabling draining is the medium water level of the underground channel. In an open channel flow operation of an open channel-closed channel mixed flow operation, water level of the underground channel is maintained at the lowest water level L.W.L, so that the underground channel is in an open channel condition.

  • Patent number: 5752785
    Abstract: In a drainage pump station, a driving machine has a capacity greater than a shaft power necessary for no-discharge operation of a pump, and during severe flooding the pump is operated at an overload exceeding its design capacity. During maintenance operation water is fed from a river on the delivery side of the pump station into the station. When an inflow of rainwater into the pump station is great the pump is operated at the necessary capacity, when it becomes small the water level is kept above a rated value, and when the inflow rate is zero the pump discharge is increased to a capacity at which sediment can be discharged. A suction blower is disposed at the top of a suction sump and interstage valves are disposed in entrances of vertical shafts to effect efficient ventilation of the underground waterway. A feed channel is operated as a pressure channel and the pump is of variable capacity and the water level in the underground waterway is controlled to be constant.
