Abstract: The objective of this disclosure is to provide a dispensing apparatus that is capable of precisely dispense micro volume liquid samples without physically damaging the nozzle tip or the liquid containers. An example of the present disclosure images a droplet of a liquid sample, and dispenses the liquid sample using an image of the droplet.

Abstract: Provided is a tire vulcanizing mold which includes: a molding surface 18 for forming a tire surface; a recessed groove 22a indented from the molding surface 18; a plug mounting hole 20 disposed in a portion of the mold where the recessed groove 22a is formed and allowing the inside of the mold and the outside of the mold communicate with each other; and a vent plug 30 fitted in the plug mounting hole 20, wherein the vent plug 30 includes a housing 40 having a cylindrical shape and having a ventilation hole extending from the inside of the recessed groove 22a to the outside of the mold on an inner diameter side, and a stem 50 which is inserted into the inner diameter side of the housing 40 and opens/closes the ventilation hole, wherein a mold interior end surface 42 of the housing 40 is disposed more to a mold exterior than the molding surface 18.

Abstract: Provided is a tire vulcanization mold which includes a sector mold configured to mold a tread portion; and a pair of upper and lower side plates positioned on an inner diameter side of the sector mold and configured to mold side wall portions, the sector mold and the pair of upper and lower side plates being configured to engage with each other by fitting engagement by way of fitting portions which opposedly face each other in a radial direction. At least either one of the sector mold and the side plate has: a recessed portion extending from each fitting surface in a tire radial direction and indented outward in a tire width direction; and a saw cut groove having a groove shape extending in a tire radial direction along at least one of an edge portion and a corner portion of the recessed portion and communicating with the fitting surface.

Abstract: A front side wall portion and a rear side wall portion extend inwardly in a vehicle width direction from respective edges of an outer wall portion of a pillar outer member in a vehicle front-rear direction. Flange portions extend outwardly in the vehicle front-rear direction from respective edges of the front side wall portion and the rear side wall portion in the vehicle width direction. The outer wall portion is constituted by a flat portion placed in a central part in the vehicle front-rear direction, a front ridge portion placed on a front side relative a the flat portion in the vehicle front-rear direction, and a rear ridge portion placed on a rear side relative to the flat portion in the vehicle front-rear direction. The front side wall portion and the rear side wall portion bend in the middle in the vehicle width direction.

Abstract: A chemical analysis apparatus that quantitatively determines an object of detection rapidly with high sensitivity, and a pretreatment apparatus and a chemical analysis method used for the chemical analysis apparatus, are provided. The chemical analysis apparatus includes a pretreatment unit that accommodates a molecularly imprinted polymer capable of capturing a polar group-containing molecule included in a specimen. A quantification unit quantitatively determines a component included in the specimen that has been passed through the pretreatment unit.
