  • Publication number: 20230150136
    Abstract: A deterioration diagnosis apparatus is for a mechanical apparatus including a power transmission mechanism that transmits power via a gear. The deterioration diagnosis apparatus includes: a storing unit that stores, in advance, a trend of change along with the operation of the mechanical apparatus, in consumption rate of an additive contained in lubricant used for the gear; and a determination unit that determines the period to be taken for the consumption rate of the additive to reach a predetermined value, based on the trend of change in the consumption rate of the additive.

  • Patent number: 10821684
    Abstract: A method of producing an FRP molded article, the method being suitable for producing a thick FRP molded article, includes: placing a reinforced fiber base material in a cavity of a forming mold, such that a direction in which fiber sheets are laminated together (a sheet lamination direction) is a horizontal direction; impregnating a resin into the reinforced fiber base material by injecting the resin into the cavity in an anti-gravitational direction from an injection port provided below the reinforced fiber base material placed in the cavity; applying pressure in the sheet lamination direction to the reinforced fiber base material impregnated with the resin; and curing the resin impregnated in the reinforced fiber base material.
