Abstract: [Problem] To provide a control method of avoiding drop of a throughput by solvent substitution and of avoiding increase of a solvent consumption amount in a control method for an automatic analyzer including a liquid chromatograph that includes plural analysis flow passages arranged to be parallel to each other. [Solution] Which one of plural analysis flow passages 105 to 107 is to be used is determined in introducing plural separation processes using solvents whose kind is different from each other with a time lag relative to one another, and a solvent used in a next separation process executed at timing after starting the plural separation processes determined to be introduced with a time lag relative to one another and each of the solvents used in the plural separation processes determined to be introduced with a time lag relative to one another are compared.

Abstract: In a fuel cap provided with a breather mechanism, a cap openably and closably covers a fuel filler of a fuel tank. The cap includes a breather passage for communication between the inside and the outside of the fuel tank. The breather passage is provided with a breather valve mechanism and a resonator chamber as a silencing mechanism. The breather mechanism is a valve having a spring capable of retaining a pressure within the fuel tank up to a predetermined pressure.

Abstract: A number of cells can be determined before control for a battery without providing cell number setting and input means. The cell number determination device comprises voltage measuring units that select an “i”th cell among cells that are connected in series and that configure a battery, and that measure a voltage value between a terminal in which the “i”th cell and an (i?1)th cell, which is in one location higher than the “i”th cell, are connected and a ground potential line, voltage comparators that determine an existence, nonexistence or normality of the cells by comparing a voltage value of an (i+1)th cell that is in one location lower than the “i”th cell with the voltage value of the “i”th cell measured by the voltage measuring units and a cell number determination unit that determines a number of assembled cells and normal cells and cell assembled locations in the battery.

Abstract: A reusable period of a battery can be maintained for a long time by recharging while avoiding abnormal heating of the battery due to over discharge. A battery protection circuit comprises a control part that cuts off a discharge switch which is a discharge path to a load for a battery when a voltage value of the battery is equal to or less than a first threshold value, or when the voltage value of the battery is less than the first threshold value, wherein the control part cuts off a power switch as a power supply path to the control part itself when the voltage value of the battery is equal to or less than a second threshold value, or when the voltage value of the battery is less than the second threshold value which is lower than the first threshold value.

Abstract: The present invention is an inner touch panel in which a 1st and a 2nd planer member, each having an electrode disposed on one surface thereof, oppose each other with a fixed space therebetween. The electrodes face each other across the space, and a polarizing plate is stacked on the other surface of the 1st planer member. At least one of the 1st and the 2nd planer members is a film made of a siloxane crosslinking acrylic silicone resin.
