Publication number: 20060081662Abstract: A spout (2) of a bottle (1) is provided on the inner side thereof with a partition (3) for dividing the space inside the spout into a liquid effluent part (5) and an air influent part (6). The partition is connected to and integrated with the spout. The space inside the spout divided by the partition is opened in the opening face of the spout toward the outer direction on both the liquid effluent part side and the air influent part side. The partition on the air influent part side is directed toward the interior of the bottle and continued to the inner wall of the spout and closed in the form of a bag. The partition is provided on the trailing part thereof with an air hole (4) connecting the air influent part and the interior of the bottle. When a person applies his lips to the liquid effluent part and tilts the bottle so as to lower the liquid effluent part, the drinking water in the bottle flows into his mouth through the liquid effluent part.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2004Publication date: April 20, 2006Applicant: Shuichi MIURAInventor: Noboru Miura

Publication number: 20030087129Abstract: A light-emitting thin film or phosphor is low temperature annealed by electron beam irradiation to effect crystallization and increase luminance without causing heat-associated damage to the underlying substrate. The treated thin film or phosphor is particularly well adapted for use in electroluminescent devices. The invention is also directed at a method and apparatus for reliably forming luminescent thin films endowed with such properties.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 2, 2002Publication date: May 8, 2003Applicant: TDK Corp.Inventors: Noboru Miura, Mitsuhiro Kawanishi, Yoshihiko Yano

Patent number: 4658764Abstract: In a boiling liquid engine cooling system which employs an electric fan for increasing the condensation function of a radiator (or condenser), there is employed a control means which restrains the rotation speed of the electric fan to a low level at the beginning of the fan rotation and thereafter gradually increases the rotation speed to the normal level as the time proceeds. With this, undesirable sudden violent boiling of liquid coolant in the coolant jacket is prevented.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 1985Date of Patent: April 21, 1987Assignee: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Noboru Miura, Yoshimasa Hayashi
