  • Publication number: 20240123880
    Abstract: A seat back panel includes a panel main body and a separate panel. The panel main body is disposed at a posterior portion of a seat back of a vehicle seat. The panel main body structures a portion of a main body portion of a seat back frame. An aperture is formed at a location of the panel main body that opposes a dorsal region of a seat occupant. The separate panel is attached to the main body portion and closes up the aperture. At a time of rear-end collision of the vehicle, the separate panel receives a load from the dorsal region of the seat occupant and relatively displaces toward the rear side of the seat back with respect to the panel main body.

  • Publication number: 20230166213
    Abstract: According to embodiment, a carbon dioxide capturing system cools a regenerator discharge gas discharged from a regenerator 5 containing carbon dioxide by a cooling unit 8, and then sends the gas to a cleaner 9. The cleaner 9 receives condensed water generated from the regenerator discharge gas cooled by the cooler 9, and a gaseous cooled regenerator discharge gas, and cleans the cooled regenerator discharge gas by a cleaning liquid. The cleaner 9 has a first liquid reservoir 9b configured to store the condensed water, and a second liquid reservoir 9c configured to store the cleaning liquid having cleaned the cooled regenerator discharge gas.

  • Patent number: 11559764
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a carbon dioxide capturing system includes an absorber to absorb CO2 from first gas into lean liquid, and produce rich liquid that is the lean liquid absorbing the CO2 and second gas that is the first gas removing the CO2, and a regenerator to separate third gas including the CO2 from the rich liquid flowing from the absorber, and provide the lean liquid and the third gas. The system further includes a flowmeter to measure a flow rate of the third gas, a liquid level gauge to measure a liquid level of the lean liquid and/or the rich liquid, and a controller to regulate a quantity of heat energy supplied to the regenerator based on the flow rate of the third gas, and regulate a total amount of the lean liquid and the rich liquid in the system based on the liquid level.

  • Publication number: 20220226770
    Abstract: A carbon dioxide capture system according to an embodiment includes: a carbon dioxide capturer, an absorbing liquid regenerator, a first washer, a second washer, and an absorbing liquid line. The first washer washes the combustion exhaust gas discharged from the carbon dioxide capturer with a mist of a first cleaning liquid sprayed by a first spray to capture the amine accompanying the combustion exhaust gas. The absorbing liquid line supplies the absorbing liquid regenerated in the absorbing liquid regenerator as the first cleaning liquid to the first spray. The first cleaning liquid sprayed by the first spray is supplied as the absorbing liquid to the carbon dioxide capturer.
