  • Patent number: 8189780
    Abstract: The digital broadcast receiver comprises: a signal input unit for receiving a received broadcast wave; a demodulation unit for demodulating the broadcast wave; an external module; an external module I/F (Interface) for connecting the receiver to the external module; a decoding unit for extracting necessary information containing a target content from the received signal; an output unit for outputting actual video/audio; a control unit for controlling the entire receiver; and a user I/F for transmitting and receiving information to/from a user. Further, there are provided: a packet processing unit that is located between the demodulation unit and the external module I/F, that monitors all the packets contained in a TS, and that performs a predetermined processing on packets matched with a predetermined condition; and a TS selector that is located between the external module I/F and a bus line and that selects and outputs one designated TS of the two TSs.

  • Publication number: 20090104321
    Abstract: A method for producing a roasted grain extract with which a sufficient concentration can be obtained is realized. This production method includes a roasting step (S10) of roasting a grain (unpolished rice 1) while the grain remains in a granular form, an impregnating step (S20) of impregnating the roasted grain with an impregnation liquid LQ1 (water) so that an inside 1b of the grain is swollen and the grain is cracked open, and an extracting step (S30) of extracting a roasted component that is present in the inside of the grain by bringing a solvent LQ2 (water) into contact with the inside of the grain that has been cracked open. In the roasting step, the grain is heated in a state in which the entire inside thereof has absorbed moisture and a carbonized coating 1b is formed on the surface of the grain, after which the inside of the grain is carbonized.

  • Patent number: 4789520
    Abstract: A fuel assembly is composed of first fuel rods containing nuclear fuel material and burnable poison material and second fuel rods containing nuclear fuel material but no burnable poison material. The fuel assembly is charged in a high conversion area of a boiling water type nuclear reactor having a reactor core having the high conversion area and a burner area surrounding the high conversion area. A ratio V.sub.C /V.sub.F is not greater than 1.5 in the fuel assembly where V.sub.C is the volume occupied by coolant flow paths and V.sub.F is the volume occupied by the nuclear fuel material per unit length in an axial direction of the fuel assembly. In addition, the burnable poison material is composed of neutron absorption nuclides having at least one resonant energy in a neutron energy region of one electron volt or less.
