  • Publication number: 20120219460
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a downsized ozone generation unit including control means having plurality of means for outputting an ozone gas, and the ozone generation unit. In the present invention, a gas pipe integrated block (30) has a plurality of internal pipe paths (R30a to R30f). The plurality of internal pipe paths are connected to an ozone generator (1), control means (an MFC (3), a gas filter (51), and an APC (4)), a raw gas supply port (14), an ozone gas output port (15), and cooling water inlet/outlet ports (13A, 13B), to thereby form a unit in which a raw gas input pipe path and an ozone gas output pipe path are integrated. The raw gas input pipe path extends from the raw gas supply port through the APC to the ozone gas generator. The ozone gas output pipe path extends from the ozone generator through the gas filter, the ozone concentration meter 5, and the MFC 3, to the ozone gas output port.

  • Patent number: 8110989
    Abstract: A lighting controller of a lighting device for a vehicle includes M (M is an integer of one or more) switching regulators for supplying driving currents to first to Nth (N is an integer of one or more) semiconductor light sources; first to Nth current driving portions; a temperature detector; and a control circuit. The first to Nth current driving portions include first to Nth current detecting portions connected to the semiconductor light sources and serving to detect the driving currents respectively; and first to Nth switching portions connected to the semiconductor light sources respectively. The first to Nth current driving portions operates the switching portions corresponding to magnitudes of the driving currents detected by the current detecting portions respectively. The temperature detector detects a temperature and sends a temperature detecting signal when the detected temperature is equal to or higher than a pre-specified temperature.

  • Publication number: 20110215432
    Abstract: A spectroscopic sensor has plural angle limiting filters that limit incident angles of incident lights, plural light band-pass filters that transmit specific wavelengths, and plural photodiodes to which corresponding transmitted lights are input. The spectroscopic sensor is a semiconductor device in which the angle limiting filters, the light band-pass filters, and the photodiodes are integrated, and, assuming that the surface on which impurity regions for the photodiodes are formed is a front surface of a semiconductor substrate, holes for receiving lights are formed in the impurity regions from the rear surface side.

  • Publication number: 20110052483
    Abstract: An ozonized gas having a pressure exceeding atmospheric pressure and having a predetermined concentration is supplied to adsorption/desorption columns (4) at a low temperature state of 0° C. or less and a high pressure and packed with silica gel (6) serving as an adsorbent. The adsorption/desorption columns (4) have been constituted so that at least three of a plurality of adsorption/desorption columns (4), i.e., adsorption/desorption columns (4-1, 4-2, and 4-3), are disposed in a serial cycle arrangement to constitute a main adsorption/desorption column group (99), and that an adsorption/desorption column (4-4) is disposed in parallel with the main adsorption/desorption column group (99) to constitute an auxiliary adsorption/desorption column (999). In a period in which none of the three columns of the main adsorption/desorption column group (99) is performing desorption processing, the auxiliary adsorption/desorption column (999) performs desorption processing.

  • Publication number: 20100252184
    Abstract: The invention is to provide a method for producing an inexpensive carbon nanotube-containing conductor having high transparency and high conductivity as well as excellent durability. The invention is a method for producing a carbon nanotube-containing conductor having a conductive layer on the surface of an objective substrate, and the method includes the steps of pressing a release substrate having a carbon nanotube network layer, via the carbon nanotube network layer thereon, against a transparent objective substrate coated with an electron beam-curable liquid resin composition to infiltrate the liquid resin composition into the carbon nanotube network layer; irradiating it with electron beams to cure the liquid resin composition; and peeling away the release substrate to obtain an objective substrate having a resin composition layer with carbon nanotubes embedded in the surface thereof.
