Abstract:
A method of using coal for reducing iron ore in a fluidized bed to obtain a reduced iron comprising fluidizing and pylolysis of a fine coal in a first fluidized bed, fluidized and thermal cracking the vapored material from the first fluidized bed in a second fluidized bed to deposit carbon on the surface of iron ore particles, fluidizing and reducing the iron ore in a third fluidized bed using reducing gas from generator.
Abstract:
A vehicle includes: an engine; a first electric motor capable of inputting or outputting power; a power split mechanism including a sun gear, a ring gear and a planetary carrier rotatably revolvably supporting pinion gears meshing with the sun and ring gears. The planetary carrier, the sun gear and the ring gear are respectively coupled to an engine output shaft, a first electric motor rotary shaft and a drive wheel. The vehicle further includes a second electric motor capable of inputting or outputting power to or from the drive wheel; and a control device setting an engine operation range determined by a limit value of a rotation speed of the pinion gears. To increase durability of the pinion gears the limit value is higher at a high engine rotation and low vehicle speed side than at a low engine rotation and high vehicle speed side. Engine operation is controlled on the basis of the set engine operation range.
Abstract:
A method for winding a lead wire on a multi-winding electronic component is provided. The method can prevent winding slack of the lead wire, a break of the lead wire, and/or a terminal disconnection failure. A lead wire is wound around a winding core by a certain number of turns to form at least one first layer. Next, the lead wire is folded back toward an electrode, is pulled toward the electrode at an end-of-winding side so as to be across the second layer. Then, the lead wire is caught at a bottom part of the collar to form a final terminal part for boding to the electrode.
Abstract:
A vehicle-mounted electronic device according to the present invention includes: an input portion through which a destination is specified; an incident-prone area storage portion in which incident-prone area data is stored; an alarm notification portion; and a control portion, in which an incidence of incidents in each area or an incidence of incidents in each facility in each area is stored in the incident-prone area storage portion, and, when an incidence of incidents in an area where the specified destination is located or an incidence of incidents in a facility that is the specified destination is equal to or greater than a predetermined value, the control portion makes the alarm notification portion provide an alarm notification.
Abstract:
A navigation device which stores a captured image of an area ahead of user in a moving direction after turning at an intersection and displays the captured image before turning at the intersection, includes: a first storage unit (HDD recording/playback unit 14) storing a map; a display unit (display unit 18); and a control unit (control unit 10) displaying the map on the display unit, and the navigation device further includes a second storage unit (HDD recording/playback unit 14) storing a captured image of an area to be entered after a turn is made at an intersection, and the control unit displays the captured image stored in the second storage unit on the display unit before a mobile body reaches the intersection.
Abstract:
In the present invention, after a powdered iron ore has been subjected to granulation and firing into spherical pellets, a further crushing is applied while adjustment of the particle size of the crushed pellets is made so that the outer surface of the pellets is composed of spherically formed surfaces and crushed surfaces. By doing so, improvements are made in the angle of repose and in the reducing characteristic of iron ore pellets, and eventually an efficient and highly economical blast furnace operation is attained.

Abstract:
Controlling a hybrid vehicle includes: reducing a rotation speed of a motor generator before a locking apparatus that locks the motor generator is switched from a disengaged condition to an engaged condition; starting to switch the locking apparatus to the engaged condition when the rotation speed decreases to a predetermined operation permission rotation speed; controlling the locking apparatus such that from the start of the switch to the engaged condition onward, the rotation speed decreases from the operation permission rotation speed to an engagement rotation speed with the motor generator in the engaged condition; and controlling the locking apparatus such that a decrease rate of the rotation speed when switching from the disengaged condition to the engaged condition in a low torque operation mode is higher than the decrease rate of the rotation speed when switching from the disengaged condition to the engaged condition in a high torque operation mode.
