  • Patent number: 8173802
    Abstract: Provided is a method for producing a piperidin-4-one derivative useful as an intermediate for agricultural chemicals or pharmaceutical products. A piperidin-4-one derivative represented by formula (III-a) or formula (III-b) is produced by reacting a cyclic bis(aminol)ether compound represented by formula (I) and an acetone derivative represented by formula (II) in the presence of at least one substance selected from the group consisting of protonic acids, Lewis acids, acid halides and dialkyl sulfuric acids.

  • Publication number: 20120071656
    Abstract: The present invention provides a process that enables a substituted methylamine compound which is useful as an intermediate for the production of agricultural chemicals and medicines, to be produced easily, with good yield, and at low cost, and also provides a production intermediate thereof. The process comprises a step of reacting a hexamethylenetetraammonium salt compound represented by a formula (I) with a base to obtain an N-methylidene-substituted methylamine oligomer represented by a formula (II) or a mixture of two or more of the oligomers, and a step of hydrolyzing the N-methylidene-substituted methylamine oligomer represented by formula (II) or the mixture of two or more of the oligomers in the presence of an acid.

  • Patent number: 8052329
    Abstract: A wheel bearing apparatus incorporating a wheel speed detecting apparatus has an outer member, an inner member, double row rolling elements, a sensor holder, and a pulser ring. The sensor holder cover has a cylindrical fitting portion press-fit onto the inner side end portion of the outer member. A flange portion extends radially inward from the fitting portion. The flange portion is in close contact with the end face of the outer member. A bottom portion extends further radially inward from the flange portion. The holding portion is integrally joined to the bottom portion. The flange portion is formed with a flat surface so that it forms an abutting width larger than 5 mm or more, against the end face of the outer member, or larger than 50% or more, relative to the flat width of the end face of the outer member.

  • Patent number: 6978928
    Abstract: A medium handling device that prompts a user to pull out his hand from a media insertion/delivering port without closing a shutter of the port when the hand of the user remains inside the port, even if a predetermined time has elapsed. A timer counts a time during which the shutter is opened. When the count of the timer has reached a predetermined value, it is checked whether the hand remains inside the media insertion/delivering port. When the hand remains, the shutter is slid to and fro over a predetermined distance, thereby making advance notice of closing of the shutter.

  • Patent number: 6722486
    Abstract: The bill input/output part has a movable pusher plate and a front plate and a partition plate movable between the pusher plate and the front plate to store bills, which are to be returned or paid, between the pusher plate and the partition plate, and also includes a controller to vary the distance between the pusher plate and the partition plate according to the number of bills to be stored. Bills can be arranged upright. After the bills stored between the pusher plate and the partition plate are extracted, the distance between the partition plate and the front plate is widened. This operation makes it easy to re-enter bills in the space. When a remaining bill, such as a folded bill is detected, the space between the pusher plate and the partition plate is widened so that the user can easily be notified of a failure to extract.

  • Patent number: 5210748
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an address filter method and unit to be used in a bridge unit or the like for connecting networks. The address filter unit carries out an address filter processing between a plurality of networks by using address information extracted from an incoming information frame registered in an entry table. In order to improve the processing efficiency of the address filter processing, the address filter unit includes timers corresponding to each address information registration, timer updating means for sequentially and intermittently advancing each timer value, and means for deleting registration of the address information corresponding to the timers from the entry table when a timer value becomes equal to or above a predetermined value.
