  • Patent number: 11384209
    Abstract: Provided is a composite material including carbon fibers having a weight average fiber length of 1 mm or more and 100 mm or less and a thermoplastic resin. The composite material satisfies K1?1.5×K2 and exhibits excellent conformability during a stretching step in press molding; and a press molded body production method using said composite material. K1 represents the inclination of an approximate straight line of linear approximation on the plot in the range of 35% strain or more, obtained by strain sweep tests from 0% to 100% on the composite material at a temperature of 270° C., a shear of 100 rad/sec, and a normal load of 2 N, plotting, both in logarithmic scales, the values of strain % versus the values of complex viscosity coefficient Pa·sec. K2 represents the inclination of an approximate straight line of linear approximation on the plot in the range of less than 35% strain.

  • Patent number: 10924672
    Abstract: An operation part calculates a shake amount of an imaging apparatus in accordance with a first operation system or a second operation system on the basis of an output signal of a sensor detecting an acceleration or angular velocity to determine a camera-shake correction amount correcting the shake amount. The operation part calculates the output signal of the sensor or a value obtained by integrating an integrated signal of the output signal of the sensor as a shake amount. The operation part includes an imperfect integrator. An operation system setting part sets an operation system of the operation part on the basis of the shake amount calculated by the operation part. In the second operation system, the operation system setting part increases a cut-off frequency of the imperfect integrator more than in the first operation system.
