Abstract: A railroad equipment state determination apparatus includes: a storage that stores a plurality of operation data associated with a prescribed operation performed by railroad equipment that is driven by a motor from a stopped state to perform the prescribed operation and then comes into the stopped state again; an evaluation criteria setting section that sets evaluation criteria based on the plurality of operation data stored in the storage; and a determination section that determines whether new operation data resulting from the prescribed operation newly performed by the railroad equipment is abnormal based on the evaluation criteria.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, there is provided a high pressure bushing arranged through by penetrating a stator frame of a rotating electrical machine in which a cooling gas is sealed. At least a communicating hole is provided in the hollow connecting conductor and at least a reflux hole is provided in the gas circulation pipe, such that the cooling gas flows in both of the first gap and the second gap, passes through an inner side of the gas circulation pipe, and is discharged to the machine inner side.

Abstract: A method for removing a crack in an electromechanical rotor, including: forming a plurality of slots on a periphery of a core portion of an electromechanical rotor along an axial direction thereof; inserting coils into the slots, respectively; forming a plurality of wedges for maintaining the coils in the slots, respectively; and forming a cut hole at at least a part of the core portion from an outer surface of the core portion toward the side of a center axis thereof so as to contain a crack along a circumferential direction thereof.

Abstract: A method for repairing a crack in an electromechanical rotor (10), including forming a plurality of slots (12) on a periphery of a core portion (11) of an electromechanical rotor (10) along an axial direction thereof; inserting coils into the slots (12), respectively; forming a plurality of wedges for maintaining the coils in the slots (12), respectively; and forming a cut hole (20) at the core portion (11) from an outer surface of the core portion (11) so as to remove at least a deeper area of a crack created at the core portion (11) at a contacting surface between the corresponding wedge and the corresponding slot (12).

Abstract: A herbicidal composition containing an ethenylamide compound as a herbicidally effective component and a dichloroacetamide compound as a safener.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a ketonitrile derivative represented by the following formula (1): ##STR1## (wherein R.sup.1 is a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group; each of R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, and R.sup.

Abstract: A novel substituted thiophene derivatives represented by the formula (1) in the invention: ##STR1## wherein R is a straight or branched alkyl group having 3-12 carbon atoms, straight or branched halogenoalkyl group having 3-12 carbon atoms, straight or branched alkenyl group having 3-10 carbon atoms, straight or branched halogenoalkenyl group having 3-10 carbon atoms, or cycloalkyl group having 3-10 carbon atoms, the cycloalkyl group being unsubstituted or substituted with an alkyl group having 1-4 carbon atoms, R and --NHCOAr are adjacent to each other, and Ar is a heterocyclic group; have excellent control activity on various plant disease such as Gray mold, Powdery mildew, Blast and Rust, and are useful as a plant disease control agent due to outstanding residual effect on Botrytis cinerea and excellent effect on Gibberella zeae.

Abstract: A process for producing an ethenyl amide compound, which comprises reacting a Schiff base compound having a carbon atom adjacent to a carbon atom constituting an imino group and at least one hydrogen atom on the carbon atom with an acylhalide at a reduced pressure while removing by-produced hydrogen halide by distillation to produce an ethenyl amide compound having an amide bond in the molecule and a double bond between carbons at .alpha.-position and .beta.-position with respect to the nitrogen atom of the amide bond.

Abstract: A cyanoketone derivatives of the following formula (1) ##STR1## which are characterized by excellent herbicidal activity and effectiveness against a variety of broad leafed weeds, including barnyard grass, green foxtail, velvet leaf, livid amaranth and hairy beggar ticks.

Abstract: A reverse flow cooled dynamoelectric machine is provided with an annular baffle disposed in the gap thereof and spaced from stator core laminations at the end region for improving the cooling of these laminations. The baffle prevents heated gas flow from the end turn region of the rotor and gas from the cooling passages in the stator assembly from impinging in the gap.
