Abstract: Provided is a gas circuit breaker that can reduce control energy smaller than that in previous double motion systems and an excessive force applied to a moveable pin to achieve a highly reliable double motion system. A gas circuit breaker has a double motion mechanism unit including a driving-side connecting rod, a driven-side connecting rod, a lever to connect the rods, and a guide to define the motion of the driving-side and driven-side connecting rods. A moveable pin extends through a first grooved cam of the driving-side conencting rod, a second grooved cam of the guide, and a third grooved cam of the lever. The driving-side connecting rod operates to move the moveable pin inside the grooved cams. Thus, the lever is rotated, the driven-side connecting rod is driven opposite to the driving-side connecting rod, and the driven-side arcing contact is driven opposite to the driving-side arcing contact.

Abstract: A gas circuit breaker includes a driving side electrode having a driving side main contact and a driving side arc contact, and a driven side electrode having a driven side main contact and a driven side arc contact in a sealed tank. The driving side electrode is connected to an operation device. The driven side electrode is coupled to a bidirectional driving mechanism unit. A sliding guide, on which the driven side main contact slides, is provided on an inner periphery side of the driven side main contact. The driven side main contact is energized by a coil spring in a direction of the sliding guide and has two contact surfaces. Only during normal conduction, one of the contact surfaces contacts a projected portion of the sliding guide and the other of the contact surfaces contacts the driving side main contact.

Abstract: A gradient coil device includes a major axis gradient coil, having an ellipse in a cross section generating a gradient magnetic field inclined in a major axis direction of the ellipse at a magnetic field space; and a minor axis gradient coil, having an ellipse in a cross section generating a gradient magnetic field inclined in a minor axis direction of the ellipse at the magnetic field space. A length of the minor axis field coil in the center axis direction is shorter than a length of the major axis gradient coil in the center axis direction. A maximum value of a residual magnetic field generated by the minor axis gradient coil at a space outside the magnetic field space is equal to or smaller than a maximum value of a residual magnetic field generated by the major axis gradient coil at a space outside the magnetic field space.

Abstract: In the magnetic resonance imaging device, the distance between the first and second coils is different in the circumferential direction and has a first region (A1) (?=0, ?) and a second region (A2) (?=?/2) narrower than the first region (A1). In the first coil, wiring patterns (17a, 17b) on the side of a zero-plane (F0) passing through the center of the first coil and perpendicular to the axis direction (z-axis direction) meander in the circumferential direction such that the wiring patterns (17a, 17b) depart from the zero-plane (F0) in the first region (A1) and approach the zero-plane (F0) in the second region (A2). This provides a gradient magnetic field coil capable of configuring wiring patterns without using a loop coil that does not pass through the z-axis.

Abstract: A gradient magnetic field coil device is provided in which an eddy current magnetic field of an even-ordered component can be reduced. The gradient magnetic field coil device includes a forward coil and a reverse coil which faces the forward coil so as to sandwich a middle surface and through which flows an electric current directed opposite to the forward coil. The forward coil and the reverse coil have a middle region approaching the middle surface and an outside-the-middle region where the distance from the middle surface is greater than the middle region. A line width of coil lines in the middle region is narrower than a line width of coil lines in the outside-the-middle region.
