  • Publication number: 20240092693
    Abstract: Provided is a method of producing a roadbed material from which less hexavalent chromium leaches out through use of a crushed product of a cementitious hardened body containing hexavalent chromium as a raw material. The method includes a carbonation treatment step of subjecting the crushed product of the cementitious hardened body to carbonation treatment with a carbon dioxide-containing gas having a temperature of 50° C. to 140° C. and a water content of 1.5% or more to obtain the roadbed material from which less hexavalent chromium leaches out than before the treatment. Preferably, the method includes, before the carbonation treatment step, a crushing step of crushing the cementitious hardened body to obtain a crushed product consisting of grains having a grain size of 100 mm or less at a ratio of 50 mass % or more and a grain size of 2.36 mm or less at a ratio of 1 mass % or more.

  • Patent number: 9318887
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to obtain a resin molded bushing which can easily perform positioning of an electric field relaxation shield in a switchgear. The resin molded bushing includes: an electric field relaxation shield which concentrically surrounds the outer periphery of an internal conductor made of conductor; a cast resin which covers the internal conductor and the electric field relaxation shield; and an elastic member which is disposed on the outer periphery of the electric field relaxation shield and is embedded in the cast resin. The height of the elastic member is equal to the thickness of the cast resin which covers the electric field relaxation shield.

  • Patent number: 9287821
    Abstract: A DC electric motor control device has a motor driving circuit that is constructed by a plurality of switching elements, a controller that operates the motor driving circuit to control a normal rotation or a reverse rotation of a DC electric motor, and an abnormality determination part that determines whether an abnormality is generated while the controller controls the DC electric motor. The controller previously performs reverse rotation control of the DC electric motor for a predetermined time using the motor driving circuit when performing normal rotation control of the DC electric motor, and the controller performs the normal rotation control only when the abnormality determination part determines that the abnormality is not generated during the reverse rotation control.
