Publication number: 20170073592Abstract: To provide a catalyst having hydrotreatment (hydrogenation, desulfurization and denitrification) performance that is equal to or superior to the prior art, as a hydrotreating catalyst for hydrocarbon oils, and a hydrotreating process for hydrocarbon oils using the catalyst. The catalyst comprises 10 to 40 mass % of at least one element of Group 6 of the Periodic Table, 0.5 to 15 mass % of at least one element of Groups 8 to 10 of the Periodic Table based on the oxide catalysts, and a 0.05- to 3-fold amount of an organic additive with respect to the total number of moles of the elements of Group 6 and Groups 8 to 10 of the Periodic Table, added to an inorganic porous support composed mainly of silica-alumina that comprises an oxide of a metal of Group 2 of the Periodic Table.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 27, 2015Publication date: March 16, 2017Inventors: Kenji NONAKA, Yuuki KANAI, Yasuo TOYOSHI, Youhei NISHIMORI, Toyokazu KOBAYASHI

Patent number: 8121724Abstract: In response to a transfer request, for which a loading time at a transfer source and a loading time at a transfer target are designated by a production controller, there is created a transfer scenario, which contains a basic transfer (From) from the transfer source to a buffer near the transfer target, for example, and a basic transfer (To) from the buffer to the transfer target. In order that the basic transfers (From, To) may be able to be executed, the buffer is reserved, and a transfer vehicle is allocated. The time period for the transfer vehicle to run to the transfer source or the buffer and the time period for the transfer vehicle to run from the transfer source or the buffer are estimated to assign a transfer command to the transfer vehicle. The possibility that the loading and the loading time may deviate from a designated period is evaluated. In case this possibility is high, a production controller is informed that a just-in-time transfer is difficult.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2007Date of Patent: February 21, 2012Assignees: Murata Kikai Kabushiki Kaisha, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone West Corporation, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone CorporationInventors: Takao Hayashi, Hiroki Sone, Toyokazu Kobayashi, Yoshinori Yamada, Akiya Inoue, Masayuki Tsujino, Hiromichi Kawano

Patent number: 8019468Abstract: A transport scenario composed of a basic transport (From) from a transport starting point to, e.g., a buffer near the transport destination point and a basic transport (To) from the buffer to the transport destination point is created in response to a transport request of a production controller for transport whose loading times at the transport starting point and at the transport destination point are specified. The buffer is reserved so as to perform the basic transport (From) and the basic transport (To), transport vehicles are allocated, the travel time to the transport starting point or the buffer and the travel time from the transport starting point or the buffer are estimated, and transport instructions are given to the transport vehicles. The possibility that the loading times are out of the specified period is evaluated. If the possibility is larger, the impossibility of a just-in-time transport is notified to the production controller.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2007Date of Patent: September 13, 2011Assignees: Murata Kikai Kabushiki Kaisha, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone West Corporation, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone CorporationInventors: Takao Hayashi, Hiroki Sone, Toyokazu Kobayashi, Yoshinori Yamada, Akiya Inoue, Masayuki Tsujino, Hiromichi Kawano

Patent number: 7809466Abstract: In the case of transporting an article to a load port which is occupied by another article, at the time of generating a transportation command, estimated arrival time T1 when the article arrives at the load port and estimated removal time T2 when the article which occupies the load port is removed are compared with each other. If the time T2 is earlier than the time T1, a transportation command for transporting the article to the load port is assigned. If the time t2 is later than the time T1, a transportation command for transporting the article to a buffer on the upstream side of the load port is assigned.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2007Date of Patent: October 5, 2010Assignee: Murata Kikai Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Toyokazu Kobayashi

Publication number: 20070233442Abstract: Transportation commands are assigned to models, and executed in a transportation command generation process. Execution results are recorded in a log file. During execution, transportation results are transmitted, and stored in a database on a receiver side. The data of the database is processed into statistical data, and displayed as graphs on a monitor.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 26, 2007Publication date: October 4, 2007Applicant: MURATA KIKAI KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Tomio Ito, Toyokazu Kobayashi
