Abstract: A rotating device for a vehicle interior item is provided with latching means that is provided on a side of a base member having a rotation support part, and engagement means that is provided on a side of a rotating member supporting a vehicle interior item and being rotatably supported by the rotation support part, and can be switched between a state in which the engagement means engages with the latching means so as to suppress detachment of the rotating member from the base member and a state in which the engagement with the latching means is released when the rotating member attains the rotatable state, wherein the latching means and the engagement means are disposed further outside than the rotating member in plan view at least when the rotating member is in the non-rotating state. Accordingly, it is possible to suppress an increase in the height while suppressing detachment when the vehicle interior item is not rotating.

Abstract: To provide a synthetic resin thrust plate having usable plane accuracy while eliminating correction of the plane shape thereof with a hot-plate press and a method for manufacturing the same. A synthetic resin thrust plate 1 is a hollow disc-shaped, synthetic resin thrust plate having a plurality of radial grooves 2 and 3 at equiangular intervals in terms of a disc central angle on both thrust faces 1a and 1b, respectively. The grooves 2 on one thrust face 1a and the grooves 3 on another thrust face 1b are the same in number. The grooves 2 on the one thrust face 1a and the grooves 3 on the other thrust face 1b are arranged so as not to overlap with each other in a circumferential direction. In particular, the grooves 2 on the one thrust face 1a and the grooves 3 on the other thrust face 1b are arranged in a staggered manner so as to have an angular deviation of ½ of an angular interval between the grooves adjacent to each other on the same thrust face in terms of the disc central angle.

Abstract: In a vehicle seat foldable by rotation of rotary links disposed below a seat cushion in a direction toward the seat cushion, a front end portion of the seat cushion includes a suspending portion of a cushion pad and a skin material covering the suspending portion. Contact portions of the front end portion of the seat cushion contacting the rotary links when the vehicle seat is in a folded state include a recessed portion provided at the suspending portion, and a flexible plate provided at an outer skin material downwardly extending along a front surface of the suspending portion in the skin material covering the recessed portion. The flexible plate is configured to restore the shape of the outer skin material when the rotary links are separated from the contact portions.

Abstract: A well has a pair of side surfaces, and one of the side surfaces is in contact with a compartment of a first channel with a gas-permeable membrane being interposed therebetween and the other side surface is in contact with a compartment of a second channel with a gas-permeable membrane being interposed therebetween. The well is filled with a liquid cell culture medium, and in such a state, a high-concentration gas and a low-concentration gas, which are different in the concentration of a specific component from each other, are allowed to flow through the first and second channels, respectively, to form a concentration distribution of the specific component in the well.
