PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide electronic equipment using a fuel cell restrained from damage caused by moisture generated in accordance with power generation of the fuel cell. SOLUTION: The fuel cell 52 generates electric power by electrochemical reaction of fuel and air. A secondary battery 62 is charged by the electric power generated by the fuel cell 52. A temperature sensor 18 detects environmental information expressing circumferential environment. A determination part 42 issues a warning based on the environmental information. A DC-DC conversion part 44 supplies the power at least from the secondary battery 62 out of the fuel cell 52 and the secondary battery 52 to the temperature sensor 18 and the determination pare 42. For example, this invention can be applied to a digital still camera using a fuel cell. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an imaging device which evaluates a photographed image, on the basis of the amount of blur occurring during an exposure operation to record an image less affected by blur. SOLUTION: Vibration of an imaging means during an exposure operation is detected as blur signal by a blur detection means each time of execution of the exposure operation, when consecutively executing the exposure operation by the imaging means to perform continuous photographing, and the amount of blur of an optical axis of an imaging lens is calculated by a blur amount operation means, on the basis of the detected blur signal; and the calculated amount of blur is compared with a prescribed reference value by a blur determination control means to determine whether the amount of blur is within a prescribed allowable range, and only image data of which the amount of blur is within the prescribed allowable range is recorded in an image recording means.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To lessen deterioration of discharging capacity by raising the sealing property between the terminal of an electrode body and the film of a bag-shaped electrolyte jar, and preventing the leakage of the electrolyte. SOLUTION: A bag-shaped electrolyte layer 27 has a terminal lead-out part 28 which contains electrodes, and from which the terminals 7 and 8 of the electrode bodies are exposed to the outside. A rail 3 contacts with one side of the terminal lead-out part 28 and has a recess. A bar-shaped body 4 contacts the other side of the terminal lead-out part 28, and holds the lead-out part 28 between itself and the inner face of the recess of the rail 3. Fixing means 5 and 6 apply pressure to the rail 3 and the bar-shaped body 4 in mutually opposite direction.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a separator for battery which has a good shutdown property and a good heat resistance, by laminating a minute porous layer consisting of a cellulose fiber, and a synthetic fiber generating no thermal melting; and a minute porous layer with thermal melting property. SOLUTION: A minute porous layer 44 (an adiabatic layer) generating no thermal melting is formed from a pulp slurry which consists of a cellose fiber, and a synthetic fibril refined to the water retentivity less than 210 to 450%. And a thermal melting type of minute porous layer 45 (thermal melting layer) which consists of a polyolefin resin is formed from a pulp slurry made by mixing a polypropylene synthetic pulp or the like, and a polypropylene/polyethylene core sheath fiber or the like. By laminating both slurrys to manufacture a paper by using an inclined wire to the adiabatic layer 44, and a circular net to the thermal melting layer 45, to form a laminate sheet. The laminate sheet laminating the adiabatic layer 44 and the thermal melting layer 45 is calendered at about 80 deg.C and the line pressure about 50kg/cm, to obtain a separator for battery 34. This separator is used to a secondary battery and the like.

Abstract:
PURPOSE: To stabilize multi-step output frequency without complicating circuit configuration by using a direct digital synthesizer. CONSTITUTION: In the case of setting recording density to (n+1) by gradually increasing command frequency Fh(n) proportional to rotational frequency when the number of scanning lines in one rotation is (n), when the number of steps is an integer of (m), command frequency Fh1 becomes Fh1=Mn.Fh(n)/m(n+1). In order to realize the equation, a pulse with the frequency of mn.Fh(n) is generated from a clock generation part 1 for fixing the period of operation of a phase addition part 3 by a clock output c1 with a certain fixed frequency and a coefficient value (nm+j) is set up in a period setting part 2 for setting bb proportional to the period o a required output pulse. Thereby the necessity of a pulse removing circuit for removing a pulse with a large frequency division having a small frequency step can be obtained by a simple circuit mechanism.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prolong the cyclic lifetime of a secondary battery by controlling the charging and discharging so that the charge/discharge capacity of the battery is set less while the battery remains in the new condition and set greater with propagation of the battery degradation. SOLUTION: The frequency of charging and discharging of a secondary battery in the form of a digital signal is given by a capacity judging part 2 of a charge/ discharge control device 1, and a numerical value conversion part 9 of a charge/ discharge voltage setting part 3 sets the upper limit voltage value in charging and the lower limit voltage value in discharging in accordance with the given frequency of charging and discharging. The voltage of the battery 5 is compared with the set upper limit value, and a switch 15 is controlled through a charge/discharge command part 14, and charging of the battery 5 is controlled with the power supply 7. Discharging of the battery 5 is alike controlled, and by this control system, the charge/discharge capacity can be set less while the battery remains in new condition set greater in the course of battery degradation. Thus charging can be performed with the upper limit voltage value which is constant at all times, and the cyclic lifetime of the battery becomes longer than in the case discharge is made down to the specified lower limit voltage value.
