  • Patent number: 11020290
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a material for an absorbent article, the material having an organic hydrophobic antimicrobial agent and a hydrophilic non-volatile organic solvent. The material for an absorbent article is preferably manufactured by a method having a step of applying an antimicrobial agent solution to a material for an absorbent article, the antimicrobial agent solution being formed by dissolving an organic hydrophobic antimicrobial agent in a hydrophilic non-volatile organic solvent. The present invention also discloses an absorbent article in which the material for an absorbent article is used. The absorbent article is preferably manufactured by using a method having a step of making an absorbent core contain an antimicrobial agent solution formed by dissolving an organic hydrophobic antimicrobial agent in a hydrophilic non-volatile organic solvent.

  • Patent number: 9221659
    Abstract: A loading system that includes a transporter and a loader or a transporter is provided. It includes a load-amount measuring unit installed on the transporter that measures a load amount of an object loaded on the transporter; a difference computing unit computing a difference between the load amount measured by the load-amount measuring unit when the object is loaded, and a load amount measured by the load-amount measuring unit after a measurement when the object is loaded and at a time of traveling; a storage unit storing a difference value data indicating the difference computed by the difference computing unit; a correcting unit correcting the load amount measured by the load-amount measuring unit when the object is loaded, based on a correction rule calculated based on the difference value data stored in the storage unit; and a display unit displaying a corrected load amount obtained by correcting the load amount.

  • Patent number: 9165330
    Abstract: In a management system of the mining machine, a management device collects operation information about the dump truck via a management-side wireless communication device. Routes along which the dump truck travels are identified based on position information, included in the operation information about the dump truck, about at least four locations included in a route along which the dump truck moves to a location where the dump truck unloads a load, to a location where the dump truck loads a load, and to a location where the dump truck unloads the load again.

  • Patent number: 9105137
    Abstract: An information collection device of an information collection system of a mining machine collects operation information from the dump truck. The information collection device transmits a position information request command to request the transmission of position information about the dump truck through a second wireless communication device at a predetermined time. When the dump truck whose response to the position information request command is received by the second wireless communication device can stay in the communication range of an in-vehicle wireless communication device until the communication of the operation information of the dump truck ends, the information collection device collects the operation information of the dump truck whose response is received by the second wireless communication device.

  • Patent number: 8298520
    Abstract: Disclosed is a deodorant particle having a BET specific surface area of 10 m2/g or more that are obtained by copolymerizing a monomer system including a crosslinkable vinyl monomer and a vinyl monomer having a heteroaromatic ring. The deodorant particles may contain a metal ion. Also disclosed is a process of producing the deodorant particles including the step of copolymerizing a monomer system containing a crosslinkable vinyl monomer and a vinyl monomer having a heteroaromatic ring by oil-in-water emulsion polymerization or precipitation polymerization using an organic solvent whose solubility parameter is different from that of the monomers by an absolute difference of 0 to 2.0. The process can further include the step of bringing the particles obtained by the polymerization into contact with a solvent having a metal salt dissolved therein to support a metal ion on the particle.
