Abstract: Calcium carbonate and a calcium carbonate preparation for food addition use which hardly sediment and are excellent in dispersibility when they are added to foods such as beverages, and which can impart good springiness to fish paste products when they are added to such products; and a food are provided. The calcium carbonate is characterized by having a BET specific surface area in the range of 20 to 45 m2/g, and a volume of voids having a void size of 0.1 ?m or less of 30% or more of the whole volume of voids in a pore size distribution curve (0.01 to 10 ?m) by mercury porosimetry.

Abstract: A connector (10) includes a housing (30) with a wire draw-out portion (34) from which wires (W) are drawn out. Rubber plugs (27) are accommodated in rubber plug accommodating portions (41) in the housing (30) and seal between the wires (W) and inner peripheral surfaces of the rubber plug accommodating portions (41). A back retainer (50) is mounted through a wire draw-out opening (34A) in the wire draw-out portion (34) and retains the rubber plugs (27). The back retainer (50) includes a retainer main body (52) for preventing backward movements of the rubber plugs (27) while allowing the insertion of the wires W therethrough. A position where the wires (W) are drawn out backward in the retainer main body (52) is closer to a back part of the wire draw-out portion (34) than the wire draw-out opening (34A).

Abstract: A connector (10) to be mounted on a case (C) of a device includes a resin housing (30). A shield bracket (50) is fixed to the case (C) to cover the housing (30) and wires (W) are drawn out through a rear opening (51A). Rubber plugs (24) are accommodated in cavities (37) in the housing (30) and seal between inner surfaces of the cavities (37) and the wires (W). A resin back retainer (40) is mounted in a wire draw-out portion (32) of the housing (30) to be arranged in a tubular portion (51) of the shield bracket (50) with the wires (W) supported and retains the rubber plugs (24). Wire protecting portions (46) are provided at positions of the back retainer (40) at a distance from the wires (W) and project back from the rear end opening (51A) of the shield bracket (50).

Abstract: A connector (10) includes terminals (40) each of which has a plate-like connecting portion (42) formed with a nut mounting hole (43). A housing (20) is formed with terminal accommodating portions (21) capable of accommodating the terminals (40). Nuts (44) with bolt holes (45) are mounted integrally on the connecting portion (42) so that each bolt hole (45) coaxially communicates with the nut mounting hole (43). Locking lances (29) are formed in the housing (20) and retain the connecting portions (42) by locking outer parts of the nuts (44) from behind. Front stops (23) are formed in the terminal accommodating portion (21) and stop the connecting portion (42) at a front end position by locking projections (47) formed on the terminal (40) to project from the terminal (40) from front.

Abstract: In a power supply system, a controller is electrically connected with a plurality of switching elements of a multiphase inverter. The controller switches the plurality of switching elements on and off during a multiphase motor being activated. This converts a voltage of a first power storage device into a multiphase AC voltage so as to supply the multiphase AC voltage to the multiphase motor. This also boosts a voltage of a second power storage device to charge the first power storage device by the boosted voltage via multiphase windings of the motor. The controller switches the plurality of switching elements on and off during the multiphase motor being inactivated to thereby boost the voltage of the second power storage device to charge the first power storage device by the boosted voltage.

Abstract: The semiconductor module mounting structure includes a semiconductor module including therein a semiconductor device and electrodes exposed to both surfaces thereof, a wiring substrate having a mounting surface on which the semiconductor module is mounted, and a heat radiating body for dissipating heat from the semiconductor module. The wiring substrate is formed with a ground wiring such that at least a part of the ground wiring is exposed to a back surface thereof opposite to the mounting surface. The exposed surface of the ground wiring exposed to the back surface is in thermal contact with the heat radiating body. At least one of the electrodes exposed to one of the both surfaces opposed to the wiring substrate is in electrical contact with the ground wiring through a through hole formed in the wiring substrate.
