Life Gets Better with Sharp Biomimetic Technology

Nature has adapted and evolved over centuries to survive and flourish.
Sharp has led the way by gaining inspiration from nature, applying the insight to its technologies and developing superior products the improve lives.

For example, one of the Plasmacluster Fan utilizes the wings of the albatross, creating a compact design with long, narrow blades that produce a highly directional airflow, allowing the wind to reach straight and far.

In addition to this, our various products utilize Sharp Biomimetic Technology. 
From now on, we would like to occasionally introduce some of them.

1958 Water-cooled Air-conditioner

Standing tall on four smartly stretched legs is a water-cooled air conditioner using groundwater, launched in 1958! At 75 cm wide, 34 cm deep, and 84 cm tall, it is about the size of a small bookshelf.
It is large for a display item, so it stands out and looks imposing when placed alongside other products.
This product generates a cool breeze by running cold well water through a heat exchanger with aluminum fins in a box installed on the top of the legs, and driving two fans on the front of the unit to exchange heat with the indoor air.
As groundwater, which maintains a water temperature almost constantly throughout the year, is used as coolant, and the higher the temperature, the better the cooling effect, especially in hot summers.
 By all accounts, it was priced at \36,500 and sold well. Air conditioners at that time were luxury items, costing more than \200,000, so it is understandable why RC-101 sold well.
 (The monthly starting salary for government workers who were high school graduates in Japan at that time was \6,500.)

It seems that there used to be seasonal traditions back then: watermelons floating in a washtub were spun around by the force of water released from a water-cooled air conditioner via a drainage hose. 

1958年(昭和33年)　水冷式クーラー<RC101>
スマートにのびた4本脚ですっくと立っているのは・・・昭和33年に発売された「地下水」利用の水冷式クーラーです！幅75cm、奥行き34cm、高さは84cmで、ちょっとした本棚くらいの大きさです。
展示品としては大きいサイズですので他の製品と並べても目立っていて、堂々とした印象があります。

脚の上部に備えられた「箱」の中にあるアルミフィン付き熱交換器に冷たい井戸水を流して、前面の扇風機のファン2基を運転して室内空気と熱交換を行わせて涼風を得るという仕組みになっています。
一年間を通じてほぼ一定の水温を保つ地下水を冷媒とするため、特に暑い夏、気温が高ければ高いほどよく冷える効果があります。
価格は36,500円で、よく売れたそうです。
当時のエアコンは20万円以上もする高級品でしたから、よく売れるのも納得です。(当時の国家公務員初任給(高卒)は6,500円)

当時は、水冷式クーラーを通った水が排水ホースから放水されると、その勢いでタライに浮いたスイカがくるくる回っているという、そんな風物詩のような日常があったようです。

New Vacuum cleaner has arrived! 😀 

Sharp Japan has released the RACTIVE Air STATION, EC-XR1, a station-type vacuum cleaner.

This model automatically collects dust when the stick is returned to the station (charging stand).
Additionally, it features noise reduction design inspired by owl feathers and shark gill structures to suppress operating noise.

It is recommended for those who do not want to make loud noises at night in apartments and for those who want to clean easily every day.
