Direct current load breaking contact point constitution and switching mechanism therewith

The invention intends to provide a direct current load breaking contact point constitution that can make and break an electrical circuit under both direct current loads of direct current resistance load and direct current inductance load over a long period of time without causing problems such as ① the conduction defect due to the consumption of the contact point, ② the locking due to material transfer from one contact point to the other contact point, ③ the welding between the contact points, and ④ the abnormal arc continuation, and a direct current load breaking switching mechanism such as a relay, a switch and so on that has the contact point constitution. The direct current load breaking contact point constitution according to the invention comprises a movable contact point and a stationary contact point that face each other; wherein the movable contact point is made of AgSnO2In2O3 alloy that contains at least Ag, 8 to 15% by weight in total of metal oxides including SnO2 and In2O3, 6 to 10% by weight of SnO2 and 1 to 5% by weight of In2O3; the stationary contact point is made of AgZnO alloy that contains at least Ag and 7 to 11% by weight of ZnO; and polarity of a movable side is (+) and that of a stationary side is (−).

Processes for the production of electro-optic displays, and color filters for use therein

Processes are provided for depositing multiple color filter materials on a substrate to form color filters. In a first process, the surface characteristic of a substrate is modified by radiation so that a flowable form of a first color filter material will be deposited on a first area, and converted to a non-flowable form. A second color filter material can then be deposited on a second area of the substrate. In a second process, first and second color filter materials are deposited on separate donor sheets and transferred by radiation to separate areas of the substrate. A third process uses flexographic printing to transfer the first and second color filter materials to the substrate.

During transfer of a material by a hydraulic excavator, load computing means periodically computes the weight of the material in a bucket of the excavator. Average value computing means computes an average value of weights of the material including a currently computed weight and a predetermined number of weights computed prior to the currently computed weight (M6), and standard deviation computing means computes, based on the average value, a standard deviation of the weights of the material (M7). True load value determining means selects a minimum standard deviation from among the standard deviations computed by the standard deviation computing means from the start of the transfer of the material to a different location until the end of the transfer of same, and judges the average value based on which the minimum standard deviation was computed, to be a true value of the weight of the material (M10, M11).
