Abstract: A multi-layer tubular woven construct is useful as a hose that transports a fluid or a powder or protects linear bodies such as wires, cables and conduits, as a tubular filter, or as a base material of a vascular prosthesis. In particular, a tubular woven construct in a tubular configuration woven by interlacing warp and weft yarns contains at least in part an elastic fiber yarn having a filament fineness of 1.0 dtex or more, the weft yarn containing at least in part a microfiber yarn having a filament fineness of less than 1.0 dtex.

Abstract: A textile vascular prosthesis has reduced leakage of blood through the voids between the fibers. The vascular prosthesis with multi-layer tubular woven structure includes two types of yarns, the yarns being a microfiber multifilament yarn with a monofilament fineness of 0.5 dtex or less as a warp yarn that mainly forms an inner layer to be in contact with a blood flow and a multifilament yarn with a monofilament fineness of 1.0 dtex or more as a warp yarn that mainly forms an outer layer, the inner layer having an apparent cover factor of 2000 or more.

Abstract: An electromagnetic exciter includes a first suspension having a cylindrical side wall portion coaxial with respect to a cylindrical wall of a yoke of a magnetic circuit assembly, and a spring portion integrally formed at the lower end of the cylindrical side wall portion to support the lower end of the magnetic circuit assembly so that the magnetic circuit assembly is vibratable. An annular support member is secured to the inner peripheral surface of the upper end opening of the cylindrical side wall portion of the first suspension. A printed wiring board that supports a voice coil is supported on the annular support member. A protector has a cylindrical portion installed to cover the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical side wall portion of the first suspension, and a caulking portion that is bent radially inward over the upper end edge of the cylindrical side wall portion of the first suspension to clamp the printed wiring board between itself and the annular support member.
