  • Patent number: 11935712
    Abstract: A control system is designed to control an interrupter. The interrupter is started by a startup current to interrupt a main electric circuit. The startup current flows through an auxiliary electric circuit and has a current valve equal to or greater than a predetermined value. The control system includes a driving unit and a driven unit. The driving unit includes an intermediate electrical path to be connected to the main electric circuit. The driven unit is to be connected to the auxiliary electric circuit. When an abnormal current having a current value equal to or greater than a prescribed value flows through the intermediate electrical path, the driving unit uses, as a drive source for driving the driven unit, the abnormal current flowing through the intermediate electrical path. The driven unit supplies the auxiliary electric circuit with the startup current by being driven by the driving unit.

    Abstract: An evaporation concentration mechanism is realized that can control a depressurization rate by an inexpensive and simple mechanism to inhibit bumping at the time of evaporation and concentration. The evaporation concentration mechanism includes a reaction vessel that holds a sample solution, a depressurization channel connected to the reaction vessel, and a depressurization source that is connected to the reaction vessel via the depressurization channel and depressurizes the inside of the reaction vessel. The evaporation concentration mechanism further includes at least one of solenoid valves provided in the depressurization channel, and a control unit 8 that controls an operation of the solenoid valves. The control unit 8 intermittently opens and closes the solenoid valves during a depressurization period in which the inside of the reaction vessel is depressurized by the depressurization source.

  • Patent number: 11917314
    Abstract: An image sensor includes a plurality of pixels. Each pixel includes a photoelectric conversion portion, a reset gate for controlling removal of a charge accumulated in the photoelectric conversion portion, a charge accumulation portion, an accumulation gate for controlling a transfer of the charge from the photoelectric conversion portion to the charge accumulation portion, and a readout gate for controlling readout of the charge from the charge accumulation portion. The reset gate removes the charge generated in the photoelectric conversion portion by excitation light. The accumulation gate transfers the charge generated in the photoelectric conversion portion by fluorescence to the charge accumulation portion. The readout gate performs control for reading out the charge after the charge transfer is performed n times. The number n of the charge transfers is set for each pixel.

  • Publication number: 20240019407
    Abstract: A method of controlling a liquid chromatograph that estimates the maximum value of the pressure reached during measurement before actually measuring a sample. The method includes a pump having a gradient function that feeds liquid while changing the composition of a plurality of eluents, according to gradient liquid feeding conditions, a sample filling unit for filling a sample, a separation column, an analysis flow channel connecting the pump to the separation column, and a pressure sensor which detects a pressure within the analysis flow channel during liquid feeding by the pump. A maximum pressure presumed during measurement is calculated based on an initial pressure as a pressure within the analysis flow channel when the pump starts feeding liquid and the gradient liquid feeding conditions and that when the maximum pressure presumed is determined to be a predetermined upper pressure limit, the sample filling is not performed.

  • Patent number: 11859600
    Abstract: A liquid feed pump which increases the liquid flow velocity in a stagnation area in the pressure chamber of a plunger pump, thereby improving the liquid replacement speed in the plunger pump. When the liquid in the liquid feed pump is replaced, a first plunger slides back and forth in the space between a lower limit point and an upper limit point, and the second plunger stops at least temporarily at a position near to the upper limit point or slides back and forth for a shorter distance than when the liquid feed pump usually feeds the liquid.
