  • Patent number: 8282879
    Abstract: A fluid purification device includes an inner tube composed of a non-conductive material and an outer tube which is spaced apart from the inner tube by predetermined space S and composed of a non-conductive material, and the tubes are concentrically arranged. A conductive member is attached to apart or entire periphery of the inside of the outer tube to provide an electrode so as to form a device main body. When a voltage is applied to the electrode of the device main body, discharge in the space S is created by using a fluid to be treated W composed of liquid such as water which flows within the inner tube as an earth electrode. This causes a gas such as oxygen or air flowing in the space S to be reacted to generate ozone and mixes the ozone with the fluid to be treated W so as to purify the fluid.

  • Patent number: 7946030
    Abstract: An assembly-target-object-and-assembly-component carrier pallet carries thereon a target object (semi-finished product) 2 and a plurality of assembly components arranged, as viewed in plane, on a straight line which passes through a predetermined attachment position on the target object where the predetermined assembly component is to be attached. This allows a minimum of moving parts in the attaching device which attaches the assembly components to the assembly target object. Therefore, the structure of an assembling apparatus is simplified and mechanical errors and assembly time are reduced, thereby improving assembling accuracy.
