Abstract: A quakeproof plinth is adapted to make a showpiece mount vertically go down without a tilt so as to cushion and shelter a showpiece seated thereon from impact force exerted on the entire showpiece. A plinth (100) of the present invention is comprised of a showpiece mount (110), a supporting member (120) capable of supporting the showpiece mount so as to move the same upward and downward, basement shock absorbers (130) enabling the showpiece mount to be shock-absorbingly bumped down thereon, a vibration detector (140), and an actuating device (150) activated to move the showpiece mount downward in response to a detection signal produced from the vibration detector.

Abstract: An earthquake-proof plinth includes a display floor plate that has an aperture configured to fit a middle section of an article seated on the plinth and that has a seat panel passing through the aperture and supported by a shaft extending vertically downward from the seat panel; a vibration sensor; a shaft stopper that stops the seat panel and shaft in a shock-absorbing elastic fashion when the article still on the seat panel falls and eventually has its middle section fitted in the aperture of the floor plate; and a retainer that normally retains the shaft in position to keep the seat panel flush with the display floor plate while it releases the shaft in response to a detection signal from the vibration sensor to let the seat panel and shaft drop.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an earthquake-proof plinth having a trapdoor mechanism that can drop an article on a seat right down while keeping the seat horizontal as it originally is, and then, stop the article in the course of dropping by means of a shock-absorbing means, so that the article even with a protrusion(s) can be, as a whole, protected from an impact as it is dropped.

Abstract: A device for continuously measuring the temperature in pelletizing furnaces basically comprised of a plurality of temperature detectors (1, 2) disposed at fixed sites on the grate car (10) that follow the latter along the furnace and inform continuously and instantaneously the actual burning temperature of the product at the detected site through data collectors and measuring units; said data collectors being enclosed in housings (20) which also are attached to the grate car (10) in order to follow the latter while it moves through the interior of the furnace.
