An actuator comprises an internal actuator including a first stator and a first mover opposed to the first stator, the first mover moving in a direction away from the first stator; a second stator having a fixation wall that is disposed in a direction in which the first stator and the first mover are opposed to each other and that is disposed along a first mover side and away from the first mover, the second stator being fixed with the first stator; and a second mover having a pressing wall inserted between the first mover and the fixation wall.

Abstract: The object is to provide an actuator that consumes less power. An actuator comprises: a stator that rotatably supports a plurality of stator rollers; a mover that rotatably supports a mover roller disposed between the stator rollers; and a wire made of a shape memory alloy that is disposed between the stator rollers and the mover roller and has both ends connected to respective two stator terminals provided in the stator.

Abstract: The object is to provide a tactile sense provision apparatus that vibrates the finger or the like of the user through a touch panel to provide the user with a tactile sense when the touch panel is operated. A tactile sense provision apparatus comprises a transparent plate that covers a touch panel of equipment; an actuator that is fixed to the transparent plate; a reception unit that receives a signal transmitted based on operation through the touch panel; and a control unit that operates the actuator based on a signal received by the reception unit.

Abstract: An interior body is housed in a tubular exterior body. The interior body includes a spring portion, a movable portion, and a fixing portion, which are integrated together. Elastic arms are disposed on the movable portion so as to extend downward. Each elastic arm includes, at a lower end portion, an elastically pressing portion, which is elastically pressed against a tubular internal surface of the exterior body. Since the elastically pressing portion is elastically pressed against the exterior body, electric signals are more likely to flow between the movable portion and the exterior body and more likely to be prevented from leaking to the spring portion.

Abstract: The electrical equipment of the present invention is operated such that the ON operating member for the primary power supply supplying circuit is manually operated, the switch device S is turned ON and when a supplying of electrical power for the primary power supply supplying circuit is shut off, the circuit for the control system is operated and upon performing a predetermined security processing, the driving source is driven, the OFF operating member is automatically operated, the switch device S is automatically turned OFF and supplying of an electrical power to the primary power supply supplying circuit is automatically shut off, so that it is possible to perform an appropriate processing before shutting off the primary power supply supplying circuit and thus it is also possible to provide electrical equipment showing a high safety characteristic.

Abstract: In a switch device, a support arm is retained by a conductor plate at one of its ends and by a center terminal at its other end The spring member, which made of an elastic round wire, is placed in a bent form between the conductor plate and the center terminal so as to movably support the conductor plate on the center terminal. The support arm and the spring member are retained by the conductor plate and the center terminal on arc-shaped surfaces.

Abstract: The present invention provides electronic equipment that can shut off and supply power to a primary power supplying circuit by automatic operations, directly shut off power to the primary power supplying circuit by easy manual operations based on the operator's will, and never fails to zero power consumption of the primary power supplying circuit during no use.

Abstract: A connecting structure in a switch device with AC inlet is disclosed wherein, when terminals of the switch device are connected together using a thin metallic connecting strip, there is no fear of an external force on the terminals causing damage to the connection between the terminals and the connecting strip and resulting in unstable contact, and which, even at different thermal expansion coefficients in a power ON condition, ensures a stably held state of the connecting strip and can afford excellent assemblability and reliability of connection.

Abstract: A whitening embellisher includes, as an active ingredient, teprenone (chemical name: geranylgeranyl-acetone). A whitening and beautifying composition includes teprenone and one or more substances selected from kojic acid, L-ascorbic acid and the like.The whitening embellisher, and whitening and beautifying composition prevent the skin from pigmenting and darkening due to sunburn and/or aging, and quicken fading, and hence make spots and freckles inconspicuous when the preparations are used for external application as a cream or milky lotion.
