Abstract: The present invention can adjust the ratio between a global namespace storage area and a local namespace storage area. Each of the nodes adjusts the ratio between GNS storage areas and LNS storage areas of logical volumes according to the operating condition. When received a LNS-based access request as an access request for storing business affair data from each client, each of the nodes store the business affair data in their own LNS storage areas. When received a GNS-based access request, the node checks the unused capacity of the GNS storage areas of each of the nodes, and transfers the business affair data via a network switch to the node which comprises a logical volume with the largest unused capacity.

Abstract: Provided is an information processing system including a plurality of nodes 3 and a plurality of storages 4 coupled subordinately to each of the nodes 3, each of the nodes 3 functioning as a virtual file system that provides a client 2 with storage regions of each of the storages 4 as a single namespace. This information processing system is further provided with a backup node 10 and a backup storage 11 coupled subordinately to the backup node 10. The backup node 10 synchronizes and holds location information (file management table 33) held by each of the nodes 3. Then, the backup node 10 creates a backup file, and stores the backup file in the backup storage 11 by accessing a location identified by the location information (file management table 43) synchronized and held by the backup node 10 itself to acquire a file.

Abstract: A crushing chamber is formed between a concave liner and a mantle liner. The concave liner has a first area surface having a length of T to ?2T; a second and a third area surface; which surfaces are gradually inclined from the side of the inlet for the crushing chamber. The mantle liner has a first tapered surface having a length of greater than T, a cross angle of less than 20° and an inclination angle of greater than 60°; a second tapered surface having a length of greater than 0.5T and a cross angle of 5° to 10°; and a third tapered surface having an inclination angle of 45° to 50°. The area surfaces as well as the tapered surfaces are continuously arranged in a curvilinear manner. The shapes enhance the throughput of goods in a good fine-crushing performance, reducing the uneven abrasion due to the action.

Abstract: There is provided a jaw crusher capable of making unnecessary repair of abrasion or settling of a contact surface between a side frame receiving plate provided on a side frame receiving a crushing reaction caused by crushing of rock or the like, and a toggle block wedge supporting the side frame receiving plate through a toggle block. A liner mounting groove 12a is provided in a lower surface of a side frame receiving plate 12, and a liner 15 comprising a pressure receiving plate 15a fitted in the liner mounting groove 12a and a vertical plate 15b in contact with a surface on the swing jaw side of the side frame receiving plate 12 is mounted on the side frame receiving plate 12 by use of a liner latch 16 having a portion in contact with the upper surface of the side frame receiving plate 12 and the surface on the counter swing jaw side so as to replace only the liner 15.

Abstract: A jaw crusher in which in adjusting an outlet gap, manual releasing and applying operations for a tension force of a tension rod are not necessary, and repair of rough of a contact surface between a toggle block and a wedge and frequency of replacement thereof can be reduced. An outlet gap adjusting apparatus for automatically adjusting an outlet gap, the apparatus capable of securing a space required for maintenance on the back frame side of a swing jaw. A tension spring 21 for applying a tension force to a tension rod is compressed on the counter swing jaw 6 side of a back frame 4 of the jaw crusher 1, and a tendon spring compression cylinder 23 for releasing a compression force is provided.

Abstract: A vertical roller mill which maintains a predetermined milling capacity for a long period of operation is disclosed. The outer portion of the grinding face of a milling roller is chamfered with respect to a tangent drawn at the point at which chamfering of the grinding surface of the milling roller begins and/or the outer portion of the surface of a table liner is chamfered with respect to a tangent drawn at the point at which chamfering of the surface of the table liner begins. Through this structure, a milled material is smoothly discharged to the outside of the milling table, and an otherwise possible overload to the vertical roller mill is prevented. Further, the wide and shallow abrasion pattern resulting from the use of this structure means the vertical roller mill can maintain a predetermined milling performance for a long period of operation.

Abstract: The value of a variable reflecting the operating condition of mechanical equipment is continuously detected as operation condition data. A long period average value of the operating condition data detected in long reference period, and a short period average value of data detected in a short analysis period ending in the present time are calculated. Just how much the short period average value differs from the long period average value is adopted as an index of abnormality and using this index, it is possible to ascertain abnormal operating conditions regardless of the absolute value of the variable detected. The above short period average value, long period average value and standard deviation thereof are applied to a first fuzzy membership function for calculating the degree of stability of the mechanical equipment therefrom.

Abstract: The present invention provides a roller mill control method capable of automatically controlling a roller mill which is comparatively difficult to operate for operation in an optimum operating condition, and a roller mill controller for carrying out the roller mill control method. The roller mill controller stores beforehand a roller mill characteristic model representing the relation between changes in the values of the operating condition variables detected by a detecting unit (2) and operating parameters, restrictions on the values of the operating condition variables and the operating parameters, an index of performance for evaluating the values of the operating condition variables and the operating parameters.

Abstract: A roller mill in which raw material fed between the upper surface of a pulverizing table and a pulverizing roller is pulverized by compression therebetween, wherein at least one annular recess coaxial with a roller shaft being formed on the pulverizing roller, thereby attaining reduction of self-excited vibrations of the roller mill and improvement of the pulverization efficiency. Further, in order to enhance these effects, the depth of the recess is set larger than the average grain size of the raw material. Moreover, the gap between the pulverizing table and the pulverizing roller has a wedge-like sectional shape which becomes narrower toward the outside of the pulverizing table, whereby the raw material which has been pulverized by compression between the table and the roller is prevented from escaping in the axial direction of the roller shaft, thereby attaining reduction of the self-excited vibration and improvement of the pulverization efficiency.
