Abstract: A rubber composition for bladder contains a rubber component containing butyl rubber, a fluorine-based polymer, and a citraconimide compound. When a total amount of the rubber component containing butyl rubber is taken as 100 parts by mass, the fluorine-based polymer is contained in an amount of 0.1 to 2 parts by mass and the citraconimide compound is contained in an amount of 0.2 to 2 parts by mass. It is preferable that the rubber composition for bladder further contains 1 to 10 parts by mass of a sorbitan fatty acid ester. It is preferable that the rubber composition for bladder further contains 1 to 10 parts by mass of a vegetable oil.

Abstract: A character drawing apparatus makes reference to character drawing time data to carry out a pattern drawing process at drawing speeds controlled on the basis of the character drawing time data. Character drawing time intervals required respectively for drawing a plurality of characters can be changed simply by changing the character drawing time data so that the different characters are drawn respectively at different drawing speeds. Thus, the character drawing apparatus attracts effectively the attention of persons looking at characters being drawn and impresses effectively on such persons the information expressed by the characters being drawn.

Abstract: A contour filling apparatus comprising a display frame memory and a draft memory spatially corresponding thereto. A target shape to be displayed is filled inside by a draft filling means according to a suitable draft scan pattern. The filled shape is drawn in the draft memory. Scan coordinates specifying each dot in the draft memory and the display frame memory are generated in accordance with any of a plurality of previously provided scan patterns. If a dot specified by scan coordinates in the draft memory is found to be a dot filled by the draft filling means, that dot is drawn in the display frame memory where specified by the scan coordinates. The target shape is thus filled on a display screen of the apparatus in a desired scan pattern.

Abstract: An image describing apparatus for describing a coupling area for forming an image via a graphic command of polygonal shape or a circular arc. The apparatus includes a device for extracting area data of boundary point row in the coupling area, a device for approximating the boundary point row in a linear primitive or curve primitive of a circular arc, a device for dividing the curve primitive so that other area does not exist in the area of the graphic command corresponding to the curve primitive if other area exists in the area of the graphic command corresponding to the approximated curve primitive, and a device for coverting the approximate boundary into a graphic command of polygonal shape or circular arc and setting a preferential sequence to the command to form encoded data.

Abstract: Low temperature steel alloys having a high toughness and hardness, consisting essentially of from 0.20 to 0.30 wt % of carbon, from 1.20 to 2.00 wt % of silicon, from 0.30 to 0.80 wt % of manganese, from 1.70 to 2.40 wt % of nickel, from 2.50 to 3.50 wt % of chromium, from 0.30 to 0.55 wt % of molybdenum, and the balance essentially iron.

Abstract: A low alloy cast steel consisting essentially of from 0.20 to 0.35% by weight of carbon, from 1.30 to 2.80% by weight of silicon, from 0.50 to 1.50% by weight of manganese, from 3.00 to 4.50% by weight of chromium, from 0.10 to 0.50% by weight of molybdenum, at least one element selected from titanium and zirconium, the sum of the titanium content and/or the zirconium content being between 0.03 and 0.10% by weight, and the balance essentially iron, has excellent mechanical properties, i.e., a hardness of Rockwell c 50 or higher and an impact value of 4 kg-m/cm.sup.2 or higher while being devoid of a rock-candy fracture due to the presence of aluminium nitride.

Abstract: A composite material is produced by placing a plurality of blocks of cast iron having high wear-resisting properties on the bottom of a mold, pouring into the mold a molten impact-resisting cast steel, allowing the molten steel to solidify and subjecting the solidified mold to a heat treatment. The composite material thus produced can exhibit both excellent wear- and impact-resisting properties.
