The first surrounding wall has at least one first drain opening to drain water from the first recess. The second header tank has a second longitudinal direction and is disposed apart from the first header tank so that the first longitudinal direction is substantially parallel to the second longitudinal direction. The second header tank has a second surrounding wall having at least one second drain opening to drain water from the second recess. | 01-23-2014 |
20140311702 | EVAPORATOR AND VEHICULAR AIR CONDITIONER USING THE SAME - An evaporator is used in an inclined state in which a first header tank is located on the upper side in relation to a second header tank. The leeward and windward header sections of the first header tank have compartments with which the furthest tube groups of leeward and windward tube rows communicate. The compartments are divided into upper and lower spaces by split flow control sections, and the upper and lower spaces communicate through refrigerant passage holes formed in the split flow control sections. The total cross sectional area of the refrigerant passage holes of the split flow control section of the compartment located on the lower side in the inclined state is smaller than the total cross sectional area of the refrigerant passage holes of the split flow control section of the compartment located on the upper side in the inclined state. | 10-23-2014 |

20140318176 | EVAPORATOR WITH COOL STORAGE FUNCTION - An evaporator with a cool storage function includes a plurality of refrigerant flow tubes, fins, and cool storage material containers. Each of the cool storage material containers has a longitudinal direction and includes a third side wall and a fourth side wall opposite to the third side wall. The third side wall and the fourth side wall have first convex portions and second convex portions, respectively. The cool storage material containers are provided in a second part of spaces such that the first convex portions contact a first side wall of one of the plurality of refrigerant flow tubes and the second convex portions contact a second side wall of another of the plurality of refrigerant flow tubes. The third side wall and the fourth side wall have a concavo-convex shape in a cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction. | 10-30-2014 |
20150241080 | AIR-CONDITIONING APPARATUS FOR VEHICLE - An air-conditioning apparatus for a vehicle includes an evaporator and a temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the evaporator. The evaporator includes three tube groups provided in a leeward tube row, and two tube groups provided in a windward tube row. The flow direction of refrigerant within heat exchange tubes of a farthest tube group of the leeward tube row farthest from a refrigerant inlet is the same as that within heat exchange tubes of a farthest tube group of the windward tube row farthest from a refrigerant outlet. A single path is formed by the two farthest tube groups. The temperature sensor is disposed to detect the temperature of a portion of the evaporator where the farthest tube group of the leeward tube row is provided. The air-conditioning apparatus prevents the temperature of air from greatly changing due to turning on and off of a compressor. | 08-27-2015 |
Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090288448 | TITANIA-DOPED QUARTZ GLASS AND MAKING METHOD, EUV LITHOGRAPHIC MEMBER AND PHOTOMASK SUBSTRATE - A titania-doped quartz glass containing 3-12 wt % of titania at a titania concentration gradient less than or equal to 0.01 wt %/μm and having an apparent transmittance to 440 nm wavelength light of at least 30% at a thickness of 6.35 mm is of such homogeneity that it provides a high surface accuracy as required for EUV lithographic members, typically EUV lithographic photomask substrates. | 11-26-2009 |
20140065525 | PELLICLE FOR EUV - A pellicle for EUV including a silicon film and a mesh work structure supporting the silicon film, and this pellicle is improved in that the grid frames of the mesh work structure are tapered in such a manner that the width of each grid frame lessens as the distance from the silicon film is increased. | 03-06-2014 |
20150205193 | PELLICLE FOR EUV, AND AN ASSEMBLY INCLUDING THE PELLICLE, AND A METHOD FOR ASSEMBLING THE SAME - Here are disclosed a pellicle for EUV and an assembly made up of this pellicle and a mask, which brings about a projection of low contrast (intensity) shadows of a mesh structure on the mask, thus minimizing the adverse effect of the shadow on the lithographic printing; also a method for assembling such assembly is disclosed wherein the pellicle is rotated relative to the mask to minimize the shadow contrast, in terms of a contrast ratio, of the mesh structure; the angle of the rotation is 30 degrees or smaller, and the resultant contrast ratio should be 25% or lower. | 07-23-2015 |
