  • Patent number: 11079258
    Abstract: A position detection encoder includes a scale that has a position detection pattern and a linear pattern that is formed in a direction parallel to a length direction of the position detection pattern; and a position detector generating a position detection signal with a different value due to a displacement of the position detection pattern in the length direction. In the position detector, a position confirmation pattern is formed that includes two markers arranged at an interval equal to or less than an offset tolerance value for a positional relationship of the position detector and the scale in a width direction of the position detection pattern.

  • Publication number: 20180308598
    Abstract: A method for processing a radioactive liquid waste containing boron of the present invention includes: a molar ratio control step of adding an alkali metal or an alkali metal compound to a radioactive liquid waste containing boron to control an alkali metal/boron molar ratio in the radioactive liquid waste to be 0.8 or more; a drying step of drying the radioactive liquid waste having the controlled molar-ratio using a dryer to form a powdered waste; a dissolving step of mixing the powdered waste with kneading water to prepare a solution; and a kneading step of adding a hydraulic inorganic solidifying material to the solution, and kneading the hydraulic inorganic solidifying material and the solution for solidification.

  • Patent number: 9930986
    Abstract: The present invention has an object to provide a vacuum electric cooker as can be easily worked by an operator and as can minimize a stress to be applied to the container. The vacuum electric cooker of this invention includes a cooker body having a horizontal base and a stand section, a cooker container including a cooking tool, a cover member having a discharge nozzle, a connecting arm having a base end attached to the stand section as to rock in a vertical plane between a horizontal active position and a vertical inactive position. A connecting nozzle is attached to the connecting arm and connected to the discharge nozzle when the connecting arm is at the active position. A vacuum pump is disposed in the cooker body, and a tube is connected to the vacuum pump and the connecting nozzle.
