  • Patent number: 7681446
    Abstract: Provided is a liquid container having an outer surface and an interior container from which the level of liquid in the container is not visible; the liquid container having a detecting unit having a liquid amount detecting means and a liquid temperature detecting means which are inserted into the inner container and detect a liquid amount and a liquid temperature. A unit outer package located on the outer surface of the container displays the liquid amount and the liquid temperature detected by the detecting means. All detecting and display components are included in a single unit.

  • Patent number: 6641006
    Abstract: The present invention provides a container stopper in which a structure is simplified to reduce a cost, a troublesome operation is unnecessary, and liquid can be poured in and out by an easy operation which does not require time and effort. The present invention is a container stopper comprises a pour-out passage through which liquid in a container is poured outside in a stopper main body, an operating valve for opening and closing the pour-out passage, a stopper cover with which an upper portion of the stopper main body is covered, and a valve body operating portion for sliding the operating valve up and down as a lever outside the stopper cover is operated, wherein a pour-in passage through which the liquid is poured into the container from outside and which does not cross the pour-out passage is provided in the stopper main body and a pour-in valve for normally closing the pour-in passage and for opening the pour-in passage only in pouring-in of the liquid is provided.

  • Patent number: 6084431
    Abstract: In a case where a plurality of outputs are connected and used, even when a voltage higher than the power-supply voltages inside the integrated circuit is applied to the signal output terminal, the reliability of the internal elements is prevented from deteriorating. The semiconductor integrated circuit includes a PMOS transistor that has its source potentially isolated from its back gate and has one end of the current path between its source and drain connected via a transistor switch to the signal output terminal.

  • Patent number: 4983969
    Abstract: To compensate for an offset of an A/D converter, a predetermined reference signal is supplied to the A/D converter. Based on the output signal of the A/D converter, the amount of the offset for this converter is acquired. A multiplexer outputs a compensation signal which serves to cancel out the acquired offset amount, the output of this multiplexer is subjected to analog addition to the analog input signal, and the offset of this A/D converter is compensated for at the input stage.

  • Patent number: 4802739
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display control device, in accordance with the present invention, for supplying a voltage signal to drive a liquid crystal display unit comprises a boosting circuit, and a segment signal circuit and/or a common signal circuit. The boosting circuit includes a dc power supply first capacitor connected between a plurality of first group switches and to be connected in parallel to said dc power supply when the first group switches are operated, a plurality of second group switches, second boosting capacitor connected between the other polarity of the dc power supply and one end of the other switch of the second group switches. One of the second group switches is connected between one polarity of the power supply and one end of the first capacitor. A third electronic switching means is connected to the boosting circuit in parallel to the second capacitor for discharging the voltage charged in the second capacitor.

  • Patent number: 4571504
    Abstract: In the Schmitt trigger circuit, a common input signal is supplied to first and second wave-shaping circuits, which have different threshold voltages and which provide different output wave-shaped signals. These wave-shaped signals are alternately selected by a selection circuit to provide the composite Schmitt trigger output signal. When the logic level of the output signal of the selected wave-shaping circuit is inverted due to a change in the input signal to that selected wave-shaping circuit, the output of the other wave-shaping circuit is selected by the selection circuit to provide the Schmitt trigger output signal.
