  • Patent number: 9683471
    Abstract: An exhaust emission control device including a selective reduction catalyst; urea water as reducing agent being added in the pipe upstream of the reduction catalyst depurate NOx through reduction; an oxidation catalyst arranged in the pipe upstream of an added position of the urea water, the oxidation catalyst physically adsorbing NOx in the exhaust gas at a temperature lower than a lower active limit temperature of the reduction catalyst and discharging the adsorbed NOx at a temperature higher than a lower active limit temperature of the oxidation catalyst; and a fuel injection device for adding fuel into the exhaust gas upstream of the oxidation catalyst is disclosed. The start of the fuel addition by the fuel injection device is refrained until exhaust temperature on an inlet side of the reduction catalyst is increased to a preset temperature comparable with the lower active limit temperature of the oxidation catalyst.

  • Patent number: 7957026
    Abstract: An image transmitting apparatus receives a first reading condition relating to an image from an external apparatus via a network. The image transmitting apparatus compares the first reading condition with a pre-set second reading condition, if the two conditions are different, decides one of the first reading condition and the second reading condition as a reading condition when selecting an image data to be transmitted to the external device. The image transmitting apparatus selects an image data that matches with the reading condition, and sends the selected image data to the external apparatus.
