Abstract: Provided is a valve seat insert for an internal combustion engine, which has both an excellent heat dissipation property and excellent wear resistance. The valve seat insert for an internal combustion engine is used while being press-fitted into an aluminum alloy cylinder head, is made of an iron-based sintered alloy, is formed by integrating two layers of a functional member side layer and a supporting member side layer, and has a plating film on at least an outer peripheral side. The plating film is preferably a copper plating film. The plating film is a plating film having a thickness of 1 to 100 ?m and a hardness of 50 to 300 HV, and the hardness of the plating film is adjusted so as to satisfy a range of 1.05 to 4.5 times hardness of the cylinder head in Vickers hardness HV. Pores contained in the valve seat insert are preferably sealed with a curable resin before plating treatment.

Abstract: When a user uses a finger to press and hold a first candidate display area, the first candidate display area is enclosed in a selection frame (W1), a simple window (W10) is displayed, and analysis results relating to a first candidate segment waveform are displayed in this simple window (W10). Analysis results can therefore be confirmed without switching screens and, as a result, inspection results can be confirmed with fewer steps and an electrocardiographic waveform and analysis results therefor can be compared on the same screen.

The contact probe includes: a first plunger to be connected with an object to be inspected; a second plunger to be connected with an inspecting board; and a spring configured to urge the first plunger and the second plunger in a direction apart from each other. In a state where a tip end of the first plunger is released, a projecting amount of the second plunger from the insulating support body is zero with a natural length of the spring.

Abstract: The present invention is transportable economically in a flat state, and easy to attach and detach, and can provide a curved surface simply while maintaining decoration and strength without craftsmanship and absorb sound. Slits are provided on a rectangular board panel comprising two or more layers of a hard material and a soft material. Two or more layers comprising a hard material and a soft material are laminated on a rectangular board panel, and slits having a length of ½ to ¾ of the vertical side are provided thereto. The use of slits makes formation of curved surfaces easy. Since there is no need to reinforce the outside to maintain the strength thereof, the board panel can be removed easily. Even if an external pressure is applied to the board panel, the flexibility of the hard material divided by the slits and the elastic characteristic of the soft material cause the pressure to be dispersed and absorbed, and sound to be absorbed.

Abstract: A pneumatic tire has a side portion located between a tread portion and a bead portion which includes a decorative element. The decorative element comprises linear protrusions extending along the side portion and bending to form a hook. The linear protrusions are disposed at intervals with tips of the hooks aligned in the same direction. Each of the linear protrusions includes a first and second portions. The first portion extends from an inner side in the radial direction to an outer side in the radial direction. The second portion extends from a bend position of each one of the linear protrusions and forms an angle of 90° or greater with the first portion at the bend position. Each bend position mutually differs in position in the radial direction between the linear protrusions, and the interval between adjacent linear protrusions is wider at the second portion than at the first portion.

Some crystal grains composing the complex nitride or complex carbonitride layer have a cubic structure. In crystal grains having the cubic structure, the average crystal grain misorientaion is 1 degree or more; or 2 degrees or more, based on analysis of the polished surface perpendicular to a surface of the layer. A peak exists in 1-2 degrees of the average crystal grain misorientation in the frequency distribution of the average crystal grain misorientation and the area ratio.
