Abstract: A gear shift operation device for a vehicle to which a multiple-stage automatic transmission is mounted, is provided. By a control lever being manually operated in a range switchable mode, a range position is switched at least between a D-range where automatic transmission is performed and an R-range, and by the control lever being manually operated in a manual transmission mode, a gear change is performed. An operation reaction force when the control lever is manually operated is set larger when the gear change is performed in the manual transmission mode than when the range position is switched in the range switchable mode.

Abstract: A material is provided which comprises cellulose fine fibers and which is capable of suitably acting on resin or rubber uniformly on a high level, and of generating superior action when added to a resin composition. As such a material, cellulose xanthate fine fibers are contained in a resin composition or a resin dispersion.

Abstract: Nanofiber that keep crystallinity are obtained from a cellulose material under light load. The nanofiber are obtained by treating a material containing cellulose with 4% by mass or more and 9% by mass or less of an aqueous alkali metal hydroxide solution to produce alkali cellulose, reacting the alkali cellulose with carbon disulfide to give cellulose xanthate, and defibrating the cellulose xanthate. Then, the xanthate is treated with acid or heat to be regenerated into cellulose nanofiber.

Abstract: The automobile lid device capable of opening and closing an opening of an automobile interior component includes a lid body configured to open and close the opening by being attached to and detached from the opening; a first engaging claw arranged at a periphery edge of the lid body, the first engaging claw having an outwardly downward inclination section; and a second engaging claw arranged at a periphery edge of the opening having an inwardly upward inclination section. Faces of the outwardly downward inclination section and the inwardly upward inclination section are engaged as being mutually contacted such that the outwardly downward inclination section crawls under a lower face of the inwardly upward inclination section when the lid body is attached to the opening.

Abstract: An outer tapered member (4) having a conical inner circumferential surface is placed and an inner tapered member (5) having a conical outer circumferential surface in contact with the conical inner circumferential surface is placed in a through hole (31) of a first ring (1). A screw member (6) is screwed a predetermined quantity into the through hole (31) to axially press an axial end face of the inner tapered member (5) toward a second ring (2) with a predetermined force and to press the outer surface of the outer tapered member (4) against the through hole (31) of the first ring (1) with a predetermined force. A weld part (7) in contact with a first ring (1) side end portion of a pin (3) and the first ring (1) is formed to prevent the pin (3) from coming out of the first ring (1) by the weld part (7).

Abstract: A rolling bearing has a metallic member sealing member at one axial end thereof. The sealing member has a first cylinder section including a first cylinder section facing surface which is in contact with an outer peripheral surface of an inner ring, a second cylinder section connected to the first cylinder section and including a second cylinder section facing surface which faces the outer peripheral surface of the inner ring, and a flange section connected to the second cylinder section via a bend section. In a state before the sealing member is press fitted in the bearing, a radial position of the second cylinder section facing surface is closer to the flange section than a radial position of the first cylinder section facing surface. The rolling bearing has another metallic member sealing member at another axial end thereof.

Abstract: A supporting bearing is replaced with a new supporting bearing by conducting a first step and a second step. In the first step, an old inner ring before replacement is replaced with a new inner ring having an inner ring raceway diameter same as the old inner ring, and an axial length of an inner ring raceway face longer than the old inner ring so that a rolling roll is supported by this new inner ring in combination with an old outer ring and old cylindrical rollers. Thereafter, in the second step, the old cylindrical rollers are replaced with new cylindrical rollers having an axial length longer than the old cylindrical rollers, and simultaneously, the old outer ring is replaced with a new outer ring having an axial length of an outer ring raceway face longer than the old outer ring.

Abstract: Screw thread holes 20 circumferentially spaced from each other are formed in a first ring 10, and through holes 21 circumferentially spaced from each other are formed in a second ring 11. A screw thread section 40 and a press fitting section 42 are formed on the outer periphery of each pin 13. The minimum inner diameter of the through holes 21 in the second ring 11 is set greater than the maximum outer diameter of a portion of the pin 13 which is positioned closer to the screw thread section 40 than the press fitting section 42. The screw thread sections 40 of the pins 13 are screwed into the screw thread holes 20 in the first ring 10, and the press fitting sections 42 of the pins 13 are fixed in the through holes 21 in the second ring 11 by interference fit.

Abstract: A syringe cylinder 12 includes a groove 32 formed in an inner peripheral surface thereof and extending over a predetermined length from an opening end 30 thereof. Even with the intermediate sliding stopper 14 located at a position where the groove 32 is formed, the pressure inside the syringe cylinder 12 can be reduced. Thus, during vacuum tapping, the intermediate sliding stopper 14 can be held in the vicinity of the opening end 30 of the syringe cylinder 12. Consequently, the intermediate sliding stopper 14 can be inserted into the syringe cylinder 12 in a correct posture and reliably moved to a predetermined position in the syringe cylinder 12.

Abstract: In an optical head operable to record to and read from an optical recording medium, a beam emitted by a light-emitting element is reflected toward the light-emitting element by a first reflective mirror, and this reflected beam is reflected toward the optical recording medium by a second reflective mirror and focused on a recording surface of the optical recording medium. In this case, the first reflective mirror blocks a principal ray of the beam traveling toward the optical recording medium from the second reflective mirror, and the second reflective mirror consists of a plurality of concentric annular mirrors centered on the principal ray of the beam and separated from each other by a predetermined interval.

Abstract: In a prefilled syringe separately containing both a lidocaine solution and a hyaluronic acid solution, the viscosity of the hyaluronic acid solution is set so as to be sufficiently higher than the viscosity of the lidocaine solution. When lidocaine discharge from the tip of a hypodermic needle ends, the force f (N) required to discharge the hyaluronic acid solution from the needle tip suddenly increases, imparting sort of a jolt to the hand of the operator and creating a momentary sensation that the plunger is at rest. Letting the force f (N) required to discharge the lidocaine solution be P1 and the force f (N) required to discharge the hyaluronic acid solution be P2, the relationship therebetween is P1<P2. When (P2?P1)/P2>0.2, the operator is able to feel a sufficient jolt.
