A bubble separator used in a fluid circuit for an automobile and that separates bubbles in a refrigerant may include a swirl flow formation part extending in a substantially horizontal direction, and including an internal space having a columnar shape. The bubble separator may also include a flow inlet disposed at one end of the swirl flow formation part, and being open so as to cause the refrigerant to flow in the flow inlet in a tangential direction of an inner peripheral surface of the swirl flow formation part and so as to form a swirl flow on the inner peripheral surface. The bubble separator may also include a flow outlet disposed at another end of the swirl flow formation part, and being open so as to cause the refrigerant to flow out of the flow outlet in a tangential direction from the inner peripheral surface. The bubble separator may further include a gas discharge port to discharge gas separated from the refrigerant in the swirl flow formation part outside of the swirl flow formation part, and at least one liquid drop nozzle provided on a wall surface of the swirl flow formation part.

A jet pump which can restrain self-excited vibration in a connection portion between an inlet mixer pipe and a diffuser pipe without inhibiting a structural deformation due to thermal expansion and the like includes a slip joint structure connecting the inlet mixer pipe and the diffuser pipe to each other by inserting the inlet mixer pipe into an upper end opening of the diffuser pipe with a clearance left therebetween; and a self vibration damping structure configured such that when the clearance defined by an outer pipe wall of the inlet mixer pipe and an inner pipe wall of the diffuser pipe is widening or narrowing due to vibration of the inlet mixer pipe or the diffuser pipe, a flow path resistance inside a clearance flow path for pumped coolant water defined by the clearance is not smaller than a fluid inertia force all over the clearance flow path.

A reactor metering pipe fixing device fixes a reactor metering pipe disposed in a reactor to a cylindrical outer surface of a jet pump diffuser and reduces stress that may be induced in a weld zone in the reactor metering pipe. An outer holding memberis held on the cylindrical outer surfaceof a jet pump diffuserby a C-shaped holding member. The reactor metering pipeis clamped from radial directions by the outer holding memberand inner holding membersand. Wedgesandare wedged into a gap between the cylindrical outer surfaceand the inner holding memberand a gap between the cylindrical outer surfaceand the inner holding memberto fix the reactor metering pipefirmly to the cylindrical outer surface

According to one embodiment, a capturing apparatus includes a capturing unit configured to capture a moving image video, a storage unit configured to store the moving image video captured by the capturing unit, an operation unit configured to include a plurality of keys used to instruct playback of the moving image video stored in the storage unit, a skip playback unit configured to play back the moving image video while skipping the moving image video at predetermined time intervals every time a predetermined operation is made on the operation unit, and a playback control unit configured to switch the time intervals skipped by the skip playback unit based on the total playback time period of the moving image video.

Playback apparatus

An embodiment of a camera apparatus includes transferring a compressed playback streaming signal output from a recording medium to a map defined in a memory circuit, decoding the transferred playback streaming signal by a decoder, converting the decoded signal to a YUV signal in an image processing unit, transferring the converted signal to the map as a YUV signal, generating a magnified or reduced image from the YUV signal in the image processing unit, and storing the image on the map, overlaying a magnified or reduced image prepared on the map according to a magnified playback request, and outputting the overlaid image for seeking an output position.

An automotive display system includes an image projection unit and an angle information acquisition unit. The image projection unit projects a light flux including an image including a display object toward one eye of an image viewer. The angle information acquisition unit acquires at least one of vehicle angle information and external environment angle information. The vehicle angle information relates to an angle of at least one of an attitude and a heading of a vehicle carrying the image viewer. The external environment angle information relates to an angle of a background object at a target position of the display object in a background of an external environment of the vehicle. The image projection unit changes an angle of the display object in the image based on at least one of the vehicle angle information and the external environment angle information acquired by the angle information acquisition unit.

The quaternary ammonium compound described by general formula 1 below (wherein R, Rand Rare the same or different hydrocarbon radicals with 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and n is an integer between 1 and 10) is used as a metal corrosion inhibitor. With this metal corrosion inhibitor, it is possible even with the addition of small quantities to adequately prevent corrosion of metal in a steam generating unit or petroleum refining or petrochemical process unit. Moreover, (&#x3b2;-hydroxyethyl)trimethylammonium hydroxide is used as a hydrogen chloride formation inhibitor for a crude oil atmospheric distillation unit. With this hydrogen chloride formation inhibitor, it is possible to prevent the formation of hydrogen chloride itself in a crude oil atmospheric distillation unit without having any adverse effect on the catalyst.

Capturing apparatus

An electronic camera creates image data by performing predetermined signal compression on a still image signal or a moving image signal picked-up and created by an image pickup unit, and records the created image data to a hard disk serving as a main storage medium. The image data is divided into a recording folder or recording file based on the unit of preset recording data capacity and records the divided recording folders or recording files to the hard disk. Each recording folders or recording files are transferred and are recorded to an SD-card serving as a storage medium for transfer, and are copied and recorded to another storage medium by using the SD-card.

Systems and methods for data recording

A control system realizes a playback function by playing back stream data read out from a medium by using a decoder. When special playback functions corresponding to pause, fast forward, and rewind are to be performed, the control system moves a read start pointer to the head of a data block constructing a data format, and sets as a restart position of a playback operation.
