  • Patent number: 9518238
    Abstract: To provide a catalyst for production of a biodiesel fuel, which is capable of producing a biodiesel fuel with high selectivity, at a high yield, and at a low cost even in the presence of a water content and a free fatty acid, and a biodiesel fuel production method using the catalyst. Use of a titanium-containing mesoporous silica containing Ti and Si as skeleton constituent elements and having a pore diameter of 5 nm or greater as a transesterification catalyst enables a biodiesel fuel to be produced with high selectivity at a high yield through transesterification between an oil and an alcohol.

  • Patent number: 6157787
    Abstract: In a mechanism for feeding a film, used in a camera, etc., in which a film having one perforation formed at a specified position relative to each frame or a film having a plurality of perforations formed at specified positions relative to each frame with unequal intervals therebetween as a whole is used, a sprocket 13 is employed for controlling to forward the film frame by frame. The sprocket is locked by a lever before an initial forwarding of thefilm is carried out, and it is unlocked from the lever when the film is forwarded to move the lever, so that the relationship of engagement between a tooth of the sprocket and the perforations of the film is ensured to be constant and synchronous during the initial feeding of the film.

  • Patent number: 5923912
    Abstract: A perforation detection device of a contact piece type to be built into a camera. A detection section of a first contact piece arranged on the rear surface side of a path in which the perforations of a film advance in a film feeding stage is constructed of a metal ball which is a separate member from that of the first contact piece. This metal ball comes in pressure contact with a second contact piece arranged on the front surface side of the film as the perforations pass. When the metal ball faces a perforation of the film, this metal ball comes in contact with both the first and the second contact pieces to provide a continuity between the first and second contact pieces, so that the position of the perforation is detected. In the film feeding stage, the metal ball comes in rolling contact with the film surface. The contact pieces have a very small resistance to the film feed, and it is scarcely possible that the film will be injured.
