  • Patent number: 11065540
    Abstract: According to one aspect of the present invention, the game execution device includes a receiver, an event controller, a selector, and a generator. The receiver receives a request for generating an event based on a request for executing intervention from an auxiliary server, which receives the request for executing intervention to the game issued by a terminal of audience of a real-time play video of the game. The event controller controls events that occur in the game, at least in response to requests for generating events. The selector selects events subject to notification up to a predetermined number of the first events that occur in the game during the first period. The generator generates notification data to inform a game player of the occurrence of events subject to notification.

  • Publication number: 20080238295
    Abstract: An electroluminescent device includes a substrate having a bank-forming face on one surface thereof, a bank formed on the bank-forming face, and a thin-film layer constituting an electroluminescent element at a region surrounded by the bank. The thin-film layer is formed by filling the region surrounded by the bank with a thin-film material liquid and solidifying the liquid. The bank-forming face and a contact face with the thin-film layer have curved surfaces so that the central portions thereof are convexed toward the substrate side.

  • Patent number: 6447107
    Abstract: An ink jet head which is -prevented from corrosion by ink, and an ink jet recording apparatus using the same. An ink-resistant thin film (25) made of Ti, a Ti compound, or Al2O3 is formed on the surface of recess portions (21 to 23) of a substrate in which a reservoir (8) for reserving ink, orifices (7) and pressure chambers (6) are formed. Since this ink-resistant thin film (25) is formed, corrosion can be restrained without reducing printing quality, without necessity to change the component/composition of the ink and the material of the head, and with little change of its manufacturing process, even if there is a fear that the head material may be corroded by the ink.

  • Patent number: 5641344
    Abstract: A fuel vapor treatment device or canister for a vehicle evaporative emission control system has a casing filled with a fuel vapor absorbent material in its chamber. A relay pipe projects outwardly from one end the casing and communicates with the chamber. A liquid-fuel separator having a cavity is sealingly mounted to the one end of the casing so that the relay pipe extends into the cavity. Inlet and outlet pipes, which communicate with the cavity and fuel vapor, are formed in the separator. A fuel vapor outflow passage is formed inside the separator and communicates with the outlet pipe. The suction pipe has a reduced size section with an orifice. A liquid-fuel suction pipe, which communicates with the outflow passage through the orifice, extends perpendicularly downwardly from the outflow passage. The suction pipe extends from the orifice to the area where the liquid-fuel collects.
