  • Patent number: 7931004
    Abstract: In an engine, an oil level sensor (47) provided in a bottom part of an oil pan (15) storing engine oil so as to stand vertically upright is placed between a mutually parallel pair of balancer shafts (27, 28) housed in a balancer housing (21) provided between a lower face of a cylinder block and the oil pan (15). This not only enables the oil level sensor (47) to be placed compactly by utilizing effectively dead space formed between the pair of balancer shafts (27, 28), but also enables agitation of engine oil to be suppressed by the pair of balancer shafts (27, 28) and any degradation in detection precision due to engine oil splashing over the oil level sensor (47) to be prevented.

  • Publication number: 20080194871
    Abstract: The invention concerns the selective oxidation of propane into acrylic acid using highly selective catalysts and relates more particularly to a process for preparing these improved catalysts and their use for the production of acrylic acid from propane. The improved catalysts having the formula: Mo1Va(Te and/or Sb)b(Nb and/or Ta)cSidOx wherein a is between 0.006 and 1, b is between 0.006 and 1, c is between 0.001 and 0.5, d is between 0 and 3.5, and x is dependant on the oxidation state of the other elements, are obtained by adding a doping agent constituted by at least one component selected from Nb and Ta to a mainly orthorhombic phase prepared by hydrothermal method of a Mo—V—(Te and/or Sb)—O mixed metal oxide, optionally containing Nb and/or Ta and/or Si.
