Abstract: A decrease in output power due to a foreign matter present on a base at the time of forming a thin film solid electrolyte layer is limited, and an increase in yield even when an area of a fuel battery cell is increased, is obtained. The fuel battery cell has a membrane electrode assembly including a lower electrode layer, first and second solid electrolyte layers, and an upper electrode layer formed on a support substrate. An interface between the first and second solid electrolyte layers is flat as compared with an interface between the lower electrode layer and the solid electrolyte layer, and the second solid electrolyte layer has a thickness at which a leakage current between the first solid electrolyte layer and the second solid electrolyte layer is less than an allowable value even when an output voltage of the fuel battery cell is generated.

Abstract: An actuator using an electromechanical transducer capable of maintaining stable driving function even under a severe environment of high temperature and/or high humidity, or the like, and an apparatus mounted with the actuator. The actuator are disclosed is constituted to move a slider block frictionally coupled to a drive shaft in a predetermined direction by reciprocating oscillation having different speeds of the drive shaft driven by elongation and contraction displacements of a piezoelectric element and the piezoelectric element, a portion where the piezoelectric element is coupled to the drive shaft and a portion where the piezoelectric element is coupled to a frame is sealed by silicone resin, fluorinated resin or the like to thereby protect them from the high temperature and/or high humidity environment.

Abstract: The car under-frame of the invention comprises a planar coupling member 2 projecting from a first car C toward a second car B, a bearing inner ring 3 positioned on the upper side of planar coupling member 2 and secured rigidly thereto, a bearing outer ring 6 disposed on the outer peripheral side of bearing inner ring 3 through balls, a bearing step 5 positioned on the upper side of bearing outer ring 6 and to which the bearing outer ring is rigidly secured, and an articular coupling member 7 projecting from the second car B toward the first car C to grip a mounting arm 5b of bearing step 5. The mounting arm 5b of bearing step 5 is integral with a generally discoid body segment 5a and disposed below the top end face of body segment 5a and extending radially outwardly from either side of body segment 5a. In accordance with the invention there can be provided a under-frame structure which makes it possible to lower the car floor level without interfering with strength and coupler performance.

Abstract: The running stabilizing linkage system of the invention, which is applicable to the joints of a 3-coach articulate car essentially consisting of a front coach, a rear coach and an intermediate coach which is comparatively short, comprises a link holder 2 disposed rotatably about a vertical axis in the center in plan view of the intermediate coach, a pair of connecting rods 4, 4 each connected to the link holder through a bearing 7, with the connecting rods being supported rotatably about vertical axes in positions radially equi-spaced from the center of the link holder, and a pair of link brackets 3, 3 each disposed in the transverse center of the end of the front or near coach which is closer to the intermediate coach, with the other end of each connecting rod being connected rotatably about a vertical axis to the corresponding link bracket 3 through a bearing 8. This linkage prevents jolt of the car, particularly pitching of the intermediate coach.
