  • Patent number: 10150097
    Abstract: A cylindrical column-shaped honeycomb adsorbent has a plurality of cell passages extending along an axial direction of the honeycomb adsorbent. The plurality of cell passages are configured so that a pitch of adjacent cell passages is within a range of 1.5 mm˜1.8 mm, and so that a thickness of a wall between the cell passages is within a range of 0.45 mm˜0.60 mm. With this configuration, the honeycomb adsorbent exhibits BWC (Butane Working Capacity) of 6.5 g/dL or greater. By mixing fibrous meltable core melting away during baking, the honeycomb adsorbent has macropores configured to have a volume of 0.15 mL/g˜0.35 mL/g with respect to an overall weight of the honeycomb adsorbent and metal oxide particles having a proportion of weight of 150˜250% with respect to the activated carbon.

  • Patent number: 9322368
    Abstract: To reduce size and weight of canister while improving adsorbing/desorbing performance by optimizing adsorbent that fills chamber located at air release side. Adsorbent filling chambers 8, 9 located at air port 5 side, of a plurality of chambers 5˜8 that are arranged in series along an air flow direction in case 2, is formed by macroscopic pore whose diameter is 50 nm or greater. The adsorbent has hollow cylindrical shape whose inside thickness is 0.6 to 1.5 mm and whose outside diameter is 4 to 6 mm or hollow spherical shape whose inside thickness is 0.6 to 1.5 mm and whose diameter is 4 to 6 mm. A ratio of volume of the macroscopic pore whose diameter is less than 500 nm to total volume of the macroscopic pore whose diameter is equal to or greater than 50 nm is within a range of 30 to 70%.

  • Patent number: 9097218
    Abstract: A canister is provided with a plurality of adsorbent chambers filled with adsorbent, and the adsorbent chambers are connected together so as to form a U-turn-shaped passage. The canister has a communication chamber through which both end portions of adjacent two adsorbent chambers communicate with each other; a middle chamber formed at the end portion of one of the adjacent two adsorbent chambers, which is positioned at a downstream side of the communication chamber, and connected to the communication chamber through a communication hole; a baffle plate set in the middle chamber with the baffle plate facing to the communication hole so that an incoming air flow from the communication hole strikes against the baffle plate and diffuses in the middle chamber; and a tubular portion protruding in the communication chamber from an opening edge of the communication hole along a longitudinal direction of the one adsorbent chamber.

  • Publication number: 20140352541
    Abstract: A canister includes: a casing charged with an adsorbing material; a charge port and a purge port disposed at one end of the casing; a drain port disposed at the other end of the casing; a flange section for defining an outer peripheral part of one end of an adsorbent chamber; a first cylindrical section projected from the flange section toward the adsorbent chamber and concentric with the casing; and a second cylindrical section extending from the flange section in the opposite direction and concentric with the casing. A space defined inside the first cylindrical section is provided to communicate with one of the charge port and the purge port, while a diffusion chamber communicates with the other of the charge port and the purge port. The flange section has orifices located adjacent to the first cylindrical section thereby communicating the adsorbent chamber and the diffusion chamber with each other.

  • Publication number: 20120010331
    Abstract: Concrete compositions including a binder, water, a fine aggregate, a coarse aggregate and an admixture are provided. The binder is formed with a blast-furnace slag composition including 100 mass parts of a mixture of 80-95 mass % of blast-furnace slag fine particles with fineness 3000-13000 cm2/g and 5-20 mass parts of gypsum for a total of 100 mass % and 0.5-1.5 mass parts or 5-45 mass parts of an alkaline stimulant. Such concrete compositions can maintain superior operability by reducing the discharged amount of carbon dioxide and the decrease with time in fluidity and air content of the prepared concrete compositions. They can also reduce the drying shrinkage of the obtained hardened objects and allow the obtained hardened objects to manifest necessary strength.
