Abstract: The object is to provide a method for manufacturing liquid crystalline resin composition having a hollow filler and a fibrous filler using a common melting-kneading extruder to maintain well-balanced relation between the residual percentages of hollow filler and the fiber length, which balance could not be attained in the prior art. A liquid crystalline resin composition having 5 to 30% by weight of hollow filler and 5 to 30% by weight of fibrous filler is manufactured using a melting-kneading extruder provided with a screw. (1) The liquid crystalline resin is fed from a main feed port located at upstream side in the extruding direction, while a hollow filler and a fibrous filler are fed from a side feed port located at downstream side in the extruding direction.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a mold for resin molding which ensures ventilation characteristic without requiring an enormous amount of work. The mold for resin molding of the present invention includes: a mold 12; a design layer 16 formed inside the mold 12; and a air permeable interposing layer 22 for forming the design layer 16 on an inner surface of the mold 12. The mold 12 forms a ventilating throughhole 14. The design layer 16 is made of a resin having projections and depressions on the surface, and has a ventilating throughhole 18 formed so as to couple to the ventilating throughhole 14. The air permeable interposing layer 22 is arranged next to the inner surface of the mold 12 so that an inner surface of the design layer 16, the ventilating throughhole 18 of the design layer 16, and the ventilating throughhole 14 of the mold 12 couple to each other.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to economically produce a resin composition pellet with the degradation of resin suppressed, by using an ordinary extruder, the resin composition pellet being filled with a desired filling amount of a uniformly compounded fibrous filler, and having a required weight average fiber length, in particular, to produce a resin composition pellet used for a socket of a planar socket pin in which the pitch interval of a lattice area of a semiconductor device is 2.0 mm or less, the thickness of the lattice area is 0.5 mm or less, and the height of the socket is 5.0 mm or less.

Abstract: A portable device having a first enclosure and a second enclosure, comprises: a linking device which slidably links the first enclosure and second enclosure in a slidable manner, the linking device permitting a first action of shifting the first enclosure between a first position and a second position in a plane, and a second action of shifting the first enclosure at least in a direction different from a direction of the first action in the plane using at least one of the first position and second position as a reference position; and a command input device which inputs a command to the portable device on the basis of at least the second action of the first enclosure, thereby enabling to operate the portable device according to the action of the first enclosure.

Abstract: An aspect of the present invention provides a portable device having a first enclosure and a second enclosure, comprising: a joint device which slidably joints the first enclosure and the second enclosure, and which enables a first operation of slidably moving the first enclosure between a first position and a second position in a same plane and enables a second operation of rotatably moving the first enclosure around a predetermined axis in the same plane based on a reference position of at least one of the first position and the second position; and an instruction input device which inputs an instruction to the portable device based on at least the second operation of the first enclosure.

Abstract: A piezoelectric device includes a piezoelectric element package having a piezoelectric element accommodated therein and a connection terminal formed on a side surface and a bottom surface thereof, a circuit element coupled to the connection terminal on the bottom surface of the piezoelectric element package, an insulating resin portion being in an essentially rectangular parallelepiped shape and covering the circuit element, an external electrode formed on a bottom surface of the resin portion, and a connection electrode formed on the side surface of the piezoelectric element package and a side surface of the resin portion and coupling the connection terminal formed on the side surface of the piezoelectric element package and the external electrode on the resin portion.

Abstract: An electronic camera comprises a flat-shaped camera body and a circular hook portion. The camera body includes an LCD, a rechargeable battery, a memory, a controller and so forth. The hook portion protrudes from the camera body toward the outside thereof. A cradle comprises a projection with which the hook portion engages so that it is possible to suspend the electronic camera from the cradle attached to a wall. In this state, the cradle feeds power to the electronic camera, and data of image data and so forth is bi-directionally transferred between them. The cradle is provided with a large-capacity storage part for recording the data transferred from the electronic camera.

Abstract: The present invention provides a catalyst for polyester production capable of producing a polyester with high catalytic activity, a process for producing a polyester using the catalyst and a polyester produced thereby. The catalyst comprises a solid titanium compound obtained by dehydro-drying a hydrolyzate obtained by hydrolysis of a titanium halide and which has a molar ratio (OH/Ti) of a hydroxyl group (OH) to titanium (Ti) exceeding 0.09 and less than 4. In the process, the polyester is obtained by polycondensing an aromatic dicarboxylic acid, or an ester-forming derivative thereof, and an aliphatic diol, or ester-forming derivative thereof, in the presence of the catalyst. The resulting polyester has excellent transparency and tint, a titanium content of 1 to 100 ppm, a magnesium content of 1 to 200 ppm and a magnesium to titanium weight ratio of not less than 0.01.
