A fluidized combustor is provided with a burning zone having cooling passages in its upper portion and a lower portion beneath said passages yet deep enough so that material therein may be operated in a fluid bed combustor mode with cooling by fluidizing excess air, a separate zone being provided for selective storage therein of materials transferred from the burning zone.

Portable container apparatus and method for co-storing work articles including working implements and their associated elongated elements such as cable, power cord, hose, wire, string, thread, yarn, rope, bridle or leash elements. The container retains a collection of working implements within its inner cavity while simultaneously retaining elongated elements upon its outer surface of revolution. The container rotates to facilitate wrapping and unwrapping of the elongated elements. The container...

A mold used to manufacture, through metal mold casting, a damper that is fixed onto a housing in a disc drive and reduces a vibration of the housing, the disc drive recording information in and reproducing information from a recording medium. The mold includes a sectionally concave body that defines a shape of the damper, a first gate that introduces molten metal to the body from a runner, and is provided on a first side opposite to a concave of the body, and a second gate that introduces the mo...

The present invention provides a pusher dog, which is mounted on a driving conveyor chain and normally urged to a standing position, and which is detachably hooked on a truck. The pusher dog tilt operation plate is mounted on a storage conveyor. An upward urging member pushes up the pusher dog tilt operation plate to abut a lower end portion of the pusher dog in such a direction that the pusher dog is made to tilt and is released from engagement with the truck. A press down member presses down t...

A storage apparatus and a storage method for storing data of an input image so that an image formed by enlarging the input image can be immediately obtained. In an input image memory 2, an input image is sequentially stored with addresses designated by horizontal and vertical addresses corresponding to positions of pixels in the vertical and horizontal directions, respectively. After pixels of the input image necessary for forming a pixel-multiplied image which is an image formed of a number of ...

A storage system comprises: a heat-insulating outer shell (1) capable of insulating inner space (V); an ice storage water tank (4) capable of storing water therein disposed in an ice storage water tank disposing space (5) provided in the inner space (V) of the heat-insulating outer shell (1); a storage space (3) for storing objects (2) to be stored provided in the inner space (V) of the heat-insulating outer shell (1); an outside-air inlet opening (1a) provided at a lower portion of the heat-ins...

In a storage rack, the beam has a recess in its front in which there is an opening whose bottom has two low places in it with a higher place in between, and the opening has a finger-like extension away from the end of the beam. A key strip has a neck which can rest securely, substantially without danger of accidental dislodgment, in either one of the two low places, a tab extending from the neck in a direction away from the end of the beam and located parallel to and in front of the recessed par...

An article storage device intended especially but not exclusively for use in storing the rotor assemblies of electric motors and comprising a block formed with a plurality of recesses each adapted to receive an article to be stored and each having a closed lower end and an open upper end wherein said open upper end has a larger cross-sectional area than said lower end.

This invention relates to a storage battery provided with an improved liquid feeding device and gas exhausting device. This storage battery is formed of a storage battery provided with a monoblock battery container containing such battery elements as plates and separators for each cell and with a novel liquid feeding device and gas exhausting device in a lid. The liquid feeding device has a liquid supplying part communicating with a water tank or an air source and with each cell through an elect...

A semi-submersible vessel for loading, storing and transporting liquid has a main hull which lies on the sea bed during loading, unloading and storing of the liquid. This hull is airtight and divided into cargo compartments having outer walls formed as portions of cylindrical shells. A slim superstructure including columns is rigidly connected to and extends upwardly from the main hull and supports a deck structure. The center of gravity of the vessel is always below the center of buoyancy there...
