  • Patent number: 11933363
    Abstract: A bearing box for a rotating roll that delivers a high-temperature substance. The bearing box includes a bearing portion and a seal portion provided adjacent to the bearing portion and includes a first cooling liquid passage that is formed on the outer peripheral side of the bearing portion and through which a cooling liquid passes, and a second cooling liquid passage that is formed on the radially inner side relative to the first cooling liquid passage and on the outer peripheral side of the seal portion, the second cooling liquid passage communicating with the first cooling liquid passage to cause the cooling liquid to pass therethrough.

  • Patent number: 11685067
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an electric razor that can further suppress irritation to a skin. An electric razor of the present disclosure includes a body configured to be gripped by a user, a head having three or more blade blocks, and a head support connecting the head and the body to each other. The head support supports the head in a floatable-and-sinkable way with respect to the body. The head includes a case that supports the three or more blade blocks, and a blade float that allows each of the three or more blade blocks to float and sink with respect to the case. A first urging force with which the head support urges the head in a floating direction is larger than a second urging force with which the blade float urges the plurality of blade blocks which are one or more less than three or more blade blocks in a floating direction. The first urging force is smaller than a third urging force with which the blade float urges all of the three or more blade blocks in the floating direction.

  • Patent number: 11679520
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an electric razor in which a support frame that supports an outer blade and an inner blade, which constitute a block, can be smoothly removed. An electric razor according to the present disclosure includes a main body gripped by a user and a head having a blade block including an outer blade (that is, a slit blade, a mesh blade) and an inner blade disposed inside the outer blade and sliding with respect to the outer blade. The head includes a base, a support frame that supports the blade block so as to be able to float and sink, a case held by the support frame, a hook that locks the support frame or the case to the base, and at least one push-up member that urges the support frame in a direction away from the base.

  • Patent number: 9255221
    Abstract: Provided is an organic material which can be employed for manufacturing an organic electroluminescent device having a long luminance half-lifetime. The organic material is a composition containing: a borane compound represented by Formula (B1): wherein three ArB1 represent an arylene group or a divalent aromatic heterocyclic group; and three XB1 represent an aromatic amino group, a monovalent aromatic heterocyclic group, an alkyl group, or a hydrogen atom; and a conjugated polymer compound represented by Formula (P1): wherein Arp1 represents an arylene group, with the proviso that Arp1 is different from Flup1; Flup1 represents a fluorenediyl group; Hetp1 represents a divalent aromatic heterocyclic group; Amp1 represents a divalent aromatic amine residue; nAr, nFlu, nHet and nAm are numbers representing molar ratios of Arp1, Flup1, Hetp1 and Amp1, respectively, and numbers satisfying 0.4?nFlu?1, 0?nAr?0.6, 0?nHet?0.6 and 0?nAm?0.6 when defining nAr+nFlu+nHet+nAm=1.

  • Patent number: 6934395
    Abstract: A surround sound field reproduction system and method is disclosed by which, in such a case that a listener changes its posture so that a portion of a video image to which attention should be paid may be observed in front of the listener, a sound image can be localized accordingly in a direction in which the video image is observed in front of the listener. Specifically, the surround sound field reproduction apparatus includes a plurality of horizontal panners for receiving a plurality of sound signals from microphones disposed horizontally and cooperating with each other to control the horizontal localization, and a vertical panner for receiving sound signals from microphones disposed vertically to control the vertical localization. The horizontal panners level-distribute the received sound signals to a plurality of output channels provided corresponding to surround reproduction output channels.
