Abstract:
Deterioration at the start-up and deterioration during the leaving period are suppressed in a good balance. As a system shutdown process, a controller (30) causes consumption of the air (oxygen) present in an oxidant electrode of a fuel cell stack (1) (oxygen consumption control). Further, after the termination of the oxygen consumption control, the controller (30) performs control to set a medium pressure hydrogen valve (13) and a hydrogen pressure adjustment valve (14) in a closed state. The controller (30) thereby causes hydrogen to be held in a passage located between the medium pressure hydrogen valve (13) and the hydrogen pressure adjustment valve (14). During a system shutdown period, a predetermined amount of hydrogen (medium pressure hydrogen) held in the hydrogen supply passage (L1) at a position between the medium pressure hydrogen valve (13) and the hydrogen pressure adjustment valve (14) can be supplied to the fuel electrode of the fuel cell stack (1) through a bypass passage (L2).
Abstract:
There is provided a power transmission control device provided in a power transmission device included in a contactless power transmission system in which power is transmitted from the power transmission device to a power receiving device by electromagnetically coupling an elementary coil and a secondary coil and the power is supplied to a load of the power receiving device. The power transmission control device includes a load state detection circuit that detects a load state of the power receiving device on the basis of a first signal from a first end of a resonance capacitor forming a resonant circuit with the elementary coil and a second signal from a second end of the resonance capacitor.
Abstract:
There is provided a disk drive including first and second sliding members (69, 71) made to slide in synchronization with each other, a sliding-member movement driving mechanism (70) to move the first sliding member (69) and have the second sliding member (71) slide in synchronization with the sliding of the first sliding member (69), and a shock absorbing mechanism (83) interposed between the first and second sliding members (69, 71). The shock absorbing mechanism (83) includes a shock absorbing member (84) to absorb a difference in movement between the first and second sliding members (69, 71), caused by an external force to the optical disk brought into or to outside a housing (3) through a disk slot (21) in a direction opposite to the direction in which the optical disk (2) is loaded or ejected when the first sliding member (69) is moved by the sliding-member movement driving mechanism (70)
Abstract:
A fuel cell system including a plurality of single-cell units, each of which include an electrolyte membrane disposed between an anode and a cathode and which generate electric power by a reaction of a fuel gas in the anode and an oxidizer gas in the cathode, and a fuel cell in-which the plurality of single-cell units are stacked.
