  • Patent number: 7544122
    Abstract: An air shutter of low cost, high efficiency, and easy maintainability is provided, which can interrupt efficiently the flowage of air across a doorway when the door is open based on the consideration of the experimental data of the flowage of air across the opening area of the doorway of a cold storage. The air shutter comprises a gatepost 12 and a gatepost 13 installed at both sides of the opening area of a doorway. The gatepost 12 is provided with a lower slit nozzle 12a, a suction opening 12b, and lower fans 12c and a suction duct 12d inside thereof, on the other hand, the gatepost 13 provided with an upper slit nozzle 13a, a suction opening 13b, and lower fans 13c and a suction duct 13d inside thereof.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5348080
    Abstract: A latent heat storage apparatus is provided and a latent heat storage solution therefor stores and retrieves a cool heat substantially in or from a latent heat thereof necessary for air conditioning, cooling, refrigerating, and so forth. The latent heat storage apparatus has an aqueous solution of a plurality of inorganic salts as a latent heat storage solution in a heat storage tank, formed to retrieve a cold heat from a stored latent heat, the latent heat storage apparatus. The latent heat storage solution is formed of (N-1) kinds of inorganic salts in at least an N-component aqueous solution where N.gtoreq.3. The latent heat storage solution stores the cold heat as the latent heat thereof. The cold heat is retrievable from the stored latent heat at a desired temperature almost invariably within a range higher than the N-component eutectic point and lower than any one of binary eutectic points of salts with water.

  • Patent number: 5251075
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a magnetic recording/reproduction device (such as VTRs and DATs). A cue signal becomes a mark of its position for automatic operation and automatic editing and is to be recorded in advance with the contents of a program. The frequency of the cue signal is selected within the audio signal band. On an auxiliary audio track (24) in a magnetic tape (21), an audio signal as well as a cue signal is recorded in time division manner. Determination is made of a correct cue signal by providing a mute period before the cue signal recording region and detecting a cue signal by a filter after the detection of a mute period. The frequency ratio of the cue signal to control signal (CTL) is determined by a counter (6) with a CPU (7) being used to identify a cue signal in response to the frequency ratio. By dividing the reproduced signal into blocks, the cue signal is detected from the cycle number distribution of the frequency.
