Abstract: A tire assembly includes a tire for mounting on a vehicle, an elastic body disposed on an inner side of the tire, and a power generation body disposed between an inner surface of the tire and the elastic body. The power generation body includes a first member and a second member. The first member has a first insulating film forming a first surface. The second member has a second insulating film forming a second surface that faces the first surface and contacts the first surface. The elastic body biases the power generation body toward the inner surface of the tire.

Abstract: An analyzer for a rubber composition includes an acquisition unit, a peak identification unit, and an estimation unit. The acquisition unit acquires data acquired by allowing a rubber composition to undergo component separation and mass separation, the data being plotted in a space defined by a time axis, a signal intensity axis, and a mass component axis. The peak identification unit identities peaks in signal intensity for mass chromatograms corresponding to positions on the mass component axis. The estimation unit estimates at least either of a physical property and an odor degree of the rubber composition based on the peaks identified for the mass chromatograms.

Abstract: A bag material has a tubular shape and can be folded back at an intermediate position in a longitudinal direction. Crushed stones can be stored in a folded part of the back material. An opening on one side of the bag material can be moved to a position close to an opening on the other side of the bag material. A one-side closing rope that closes the opening on the one side of the bag material is provided near this opening. An other-side closing rope that closes the opening on the other side of the bag material is provided near this opening. The other of the one-side closing rope and the other-side closing ropes can be released with the opening closed by one closing rope.

Abstract: A scour prevention unit includes a bag body housing block objects in a bag material, and a cloth integrated with the bag body, wherein the cloth is housed in the bag material and is laid below the block objects, or is fixed below the bag body outside the bag body by fixing means.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a composition capable of providing a bread and a sweet stuff having a more delicious and drying-resistant by using a wide various inexpensive coarse cereals or cereal flours and the like, and to provide bread etc., which do not have generation of caving after baking, or have a pot growth. A composition according to the present invention is characterized by comprising rice hydrolyzate, brown rice hydrolyzate, and agar. Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment of a composition according to the present invention, it is characterized in that the dissolution temperature of the agar is 60 to 100° C.

Abstract: A garment case a is capable of accommodating clothes, and is provided with a foldable main body. A roll bar is attached inside the main body, is disposed in a position in which the main body is folded, and extends in a direction in which a folded part extends when clothes have been accommodated in the garment case.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing lithium carbonate, that can shorten the time required in the production of lithium carbonate and has excellent maintenance property and production efficiency without forming fixed matters that require complicated procedures to remove in a reaction apparatus.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing lithium carbonate, which is important as a raw material of a lithium ion battery and the like, from brine resources. More specifically, the invention relates to a method for producing lithium carbonate, in which carbon dioxide gas obtained by calcining limestone is introduced, in the presence of ammonia, into a concentrated brine, which is prepared from a lithium-containing brine as a raw material through an evaporative concentrating step, a desulfurizing step and an electrodialysis step, thereby depositing lithium carbonate crystals, and the crystals thus deposited are recovered through solid-liquid separation.

Abstract: The present invention thus provides a method for producing L-lactic acid, which comprises the step of culturing a lactic acid bacterium that can produce L-lactic acid in a medium containing any one selected from the group consisting of cellobiose, cellooligosaccharides, xylose, arabinose, and glucose derived from cellulose and/or hemicellulose as a substrate to obtain L-lactic acid. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Enterococcus mundtii NITE BP-965 can be used.

Abstract: The condition of a seabed 200 and the condition of tidal currents near the seabed 200 are investigated in advance to examine the number of filter units (FUs) 50 and the position where the FUs 50 are to be installed. Then, piles 12b as a base of a foundation are provided so as to be supported by a bearing layer. A plurality of FUs 50 are installed in close contact with each other between the seabed 200 and each pile 12b. Then, a formwork 12e for a base slab portion 12a is installed on the upper ends of the piles 12b. Concrete is placed in the formwork 12e to form the base slab portion 12a. Then, a tower 11 is fixed to the upper end of the base slab portion 12a.

Abstract: A method of casting a semi-liquid or semi-solid iron-based alloy, the method including: applying, to a part or to the whole of an uppermost surface of an inner surface of a die, a lubricating die-release agent in which particles including at least one selected from molybdenum disulfide, graphite, tungsten disulfide, boron nitride, chrome oxide and boric oxide are dispersed in a solvent; and thereafter casting by using the die.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing lithium carbonate, the method including: mixing ammonia and carbon dioxide gas (carbonate gas) with an aqueous solution containing lithium chloride to conduct a carbonation reaction; and thereafter, recovering a produced solid by solid-liquid separation, and also relates to a method for producing high purity lithium carbonate.

Abstract: A hybrid thermal power generation system using crude oil as a fuel comprises a combined cycle power generation system for generating power by supplying naphtha and light oil separated by an atmospheric distillation column alone into different gas turbines and using steam produced by exhaust heat and a conventional power generation system for generating power by burning heavy oil separated by the atmospheric distillation column alone.

Abstract: A topical liquid formulation is provided which contains a combination of three active ingredients for treating fleas and ticks in domestic animals. Total concentration of the active hydrophobic and hydrophilic ingredients can exceed 60 weight percent. In contrast to commonly available flea treatments, the new insecticidal composition is safe and effective for both felines and canines and a single topical application can be effective for at least several weeks.

Abstract: At a location where unevenness 1000 is present, the condition of a seabed 200 is investigated in advance to examine the respective numbers of large filter units 51 and small filter units 52 to be used, and the position where the large filter units 51 and the small filter units 52 are to be installed. Based on the investigation result, the small filter units 52 are installed on the bottom of the unevenness 1000. The large filter units 51 are installed on the upper surface formed by the installed small filter units 52, and are leveled so that the upper surface formed by the installed large filter units 51 becomes flush with the seabed 200.
