Abstract: A composition includes, as an active ingredient, a substance capable of providing a useful effect to the skin by stimulating production of beta (?)-endorphin. The composition containing, as an active ingredient, sanshool, an isomer thereof, a hydrate thereof, or a solvate thereof stimulates production of ?-endorphin when applied into the body, thereby providing useful effects to the skin, such as relieving skin irritation from the outside and providing a skin soothing effect.

Abstract: An apparatus for assembling lamps that automatically installs lamps into a container includes a lamp arrangement unit including a retaining-stage formed to receive a plurality of lamps, and a lamp press-fitting unit including grippers that holds lamps positioned on the retaining-stage to move lamps, a body press-fitting portion that positions bodies of lamps into a container, and a lead press-fitting portion that positions leads of lamps into the container. A method of assembling lamps uses the apparatus.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a semiconductor laser array to emit a plurality of laser beams through a plurality of independently controllable laser elements according to an image signal, an imaging optical system to magnify the laser beams emitted from the laser array, and a photosensitive drum having an imaging surface to form an electrostatic latent image by being photo-exposed through the imaging optical system.

Abstract: A laser scanning apparatus includes a light source to emit light fluxes, a first imaging optical system to magnify or reduce the light fluxes emitted from the light source in a given position and angle, a light deflector to deflect and reflect the light fluxes penetrated through the first imaging optical system, and a second imaging optical system to correct optical errors in the light fluxes reflected from the light deflector. The second imaging optical system includes a refraction/reflection lens part to alternatively refract and reflect the light fluxes reflected from the light deflector so that the light fluxes are refracted at least two times. Thus, the second imaging optical system may be provided with only one f-theta lens, minimizing a number of parts, reducing fabrication cost and increasing productivity of the laser scanning apparatus.

Abstract: A styrenic thermoplastic resin composition comprising a mixture of: (A) 50-90 wt % of a styrenic polymer; (B) 5-35 wt % of a chlorinated polyethylene; (C) 5-35 wt % of a modified ethylene-propylenic rubber; and (D) 0-10 wt % of vinyl graft copolymer has superior weather resistance and mechanical properties such as impact strength and tensile properties. The resin composition also provides improved layer peeling tendency which is one of the most troublesome problems in conventional resins such as acrylonitrile-chlorinated polyethylene-styrene resins.
