A thermoacoustic cooling device includes a tube in which a working fluid is enclosed; a first stack that generates acoustic waves in the working fluid with use of a temperature gradient; a first high-temperature heat exchanger provided at a first side of the first stack to heat the first side of the first stack; a first low-temperature heat exchanger provided at a second side of the first stack; a second stack in which a temperature gradient is generated by the acoustic waves; a second high-temperature heat exchanger provided at a first side of the second stack, which has a high temperature; a second low-temperature heat exchanger provided at a second side of the second stack, which has a low temperature; and a heat transfer portion configured to connect the second low-temperature heat exchanger to the first low-temperature heat exchanger so as to transfer heat therebetween.

Thermoacoustic cooling device

In a conveying device, a belt conveyer is equipped with a conveying portion that conveys an object from an upstream region to a downstream region. A heat source heats the conveyed object. A cooling portion is located downstream of a terminal end of the belt conveyor and cools the object. A first thermoacoustic cooling device cools the cooling portion. A first prime mover generates acoustic waves from heat transmitted from the first heat source. A first receiver generates, from the acoustic waves, cooling heat corresponding to a cooling temperature that is lower than a temperature of the heat source.

Conveying device

A thermoacoustic device includes a loop pipe, a first stack that is disposed in the loop pipe and that generates a sound wave in the loop pipe by way of a temperature gradient, a second stack that is disposed in the loop pipe and that generates a temperature gradient, a first high temperature side heat exchanger that is disposed at one end of the first stack and that makes the temperature of the one end of the first stack be higher than the other end, and a first low temperature side heat exchanger that is disposed at the other end of the first stack and that makes the temperature of the other end of the first stack be lower than the one end.

Thermoacoustic device

An oil pump apparatus in which an electrical pump can be easily disposed is provided. A mechanical pump including: an inner gear which is configured to be driven by an engine; and an outer gear which is configured to mesh with the inner gear, and an electrical pump including: an outer gear which is configured to be driven by a motor section; and an inner gear which is configured to mesh with the outer gear are installed adjacent to each other in the axial direction in a pump installation space of a pump housing having suction ports and ejection ports. A blocking plate which is configured to block communications between the suction ports and the ejection ports is disposed between the mechanical pump and the electrical pump.
