Abstract: In a light emitting component, a resistor element is formed on the back surface of a substrate and its resistance value is adjusted to make the light intensity of a light emitting element (LED) in a predetermined range. A constant electric current circuit comprised of the resistor element and a transistor supplies the constant electric current to an LED, and the LED and the transistor are formed on a unit insulating substrate. In the case where the unit insulating substrate is rectangular in shape, one pair of opposite sides are x in length, the other pair of opposite sides are y in length and the ratio value of x/y is in the range of 1-1.25. Further, this light emitting component is provided with two resistor elements and both resistor elements are subjected to a resistor value adjustment.

Abstract: A reservoir tank which includes: a container for storing fluid therein, having an inlet through which the fluid flows into the container and an outlet through which the fluid flows out of the container; and a duct provided inside the container, which is connected to the inlet of the container and has a first opening open inside the container. The first opening is located above the outlet of the container and below a surface of the fluid in the container.

Abstract: A light detection device which can be stably surface-mounted on, for example, a circuit board or the like, and a mounting method thereof are provided. A light-receiving element includes, a transparent conductive electrode (first electrode), a semiconductor layer, and an electrode (first electrode), which are sequentially laminated on a transparent substrate. An insulative substrate includes a terminal electrode (second electrode) which is provided to be exposed at first and second faces of the insulative substrate. The light-receiving element is disposed at the first face of the insulative substrate, and the transparent conductive electrode and the electrode are electrically connected with the terminal electrode exposed at the first face of the insulative substrate. Hence, the light detection device with this structure is surface-mounted on the circuit board such that the terminal electrode exposed at the second face of the insulative substrate connects with an external terminal of the circuit board.

Abstract: A fuel cell 11, supply gas passages 12a, 12b which supply gas for power generation to the fuel cell 11, and an antifreeze passage 15 adjacent to the supply gas passages 12a, 12b via a partition 14 which selectively passes pure water installed in the fuel cell 11 or upstream of it, are provided, water is transferred from the antifreeze passage 15 to the supply gas passages 12a, 12b by the steam partial pressure difference between the antifreeze and supply gas at the partition 14, and the supply gas is thereby humidified.

Abstract: A muffler has a muffler body within which is located an intermediate duct pipe colinear with the exhaust and tail pipes, so that exhaust gas from the exhaust duct pipe can pass through a main flow route in the intermediate duct pipe in a substantially straight line without reflecting. An inner or by-pass pipe forms a gas by-pass and has gas flow restriction elements.

Abstract: A device for attenuating pulsation of a fluid in a piping system comprises fluid-branching pipes extending from the piping system in which there are pulsation waves, and a plurality of orifice elements and a plurality of discs disposed in a dispersed fashion and having a small reflection factor of the pulsation wave and having a total friction factor greater than that of the entire piping system, thereby providing the effect of attenuating the pulsation of the fluid within the system without increasing the resistance of the piping system without increasing power consumption.

Abstract: An earthquake isolating and vibration absorbing equipment for structures is provided with a hanger secured to one of a floor including a ground and a supported member of a structure installed on the floor, a lever, one end of which is swingably mounted on the hanger, a weight member mounted on the other end of the lever, a holder secured to the other one of the floor and supported member, and arms for connecting one end of the lever to the free end portion of the holder. The structure provided with the equipment is less influenced by an earthquake or vibrations under the action of the lever on which there is mounted the weight member having a weight far lighter than that of the structure.
