Abstract: A bat includes a handle having a proximate end and a distal end, a barrel having a hollow portion that accommodates the distal end, and a first damping section at least partially sandwiched between the handle and the barrel in the interior of the hollow portion. The material of the first damping section has a D hardness of 60 or more, a loss coefficient tan ? of 0.11 or more as determined under conditions of a temperature of 20° C., a frequency of 150 Hz, and the amount of strain 3000 ?ST, and a loss coefficient tan ? of 0.09 or more as determined under conditions of a temperature of 20° C., a frequency of 500 Hz, and the amount of strain 3000 ?ST.

Abstract: A bat includes a handle having a proximate end and a distal end, a barrel having a hollow portion that accommodates the distal end, and a first damping section at least partially sandwiched between the handle and the barrel in the interior of the hollow portion. The first damping section includes a first portion in contact with each of the handle and the barrel in the interior of the hollow portion, and a second portion disposed closer to the proximate end than the first portion, the second portion being in contact with an inner peripheral surface of the barrel and not being in contact with an outer peripheral surface of the handle. In a cross section along a center axis of the barrel, the barrel has a depression depressed relative to the inner peripheral surface in the cross section, the second portion has a protrusion fitted in the depression.

Abstract: A bat, which has a hollow barrel and an internal assembly configured to resist deformation of the hollow barrel, is disclosed. The internal assembly includes a rod disposed longitudinally in the hollow barrel, a ring attached to the rod, a deformable sleeve disposed around the ring and extending longitudinally in the hollow barrel. The sleeve can include an outer diameter smaller than an inner diameter of the hollow barrel. The bat can include an end cap attached to an end of the hollow barrel and having a recess configured to receive an end of the rod. The rod can be configured to maintain the deformable sleeve in a predetermined suspended position within the hollow barrel such that, when the bat is at rest, the sleeve is disposed a predetermined gap distance from an inner surface of the hollow barrel.

Abstract: A vehicular under cover includes an oblong hole-shaped through-hole and is assembled to a lower side of a vehicle so as to cover a lower part of the heat source. In a plan view, the through-hole is formed so that a longitudinal direction of the through-hole is inclined with respect to a front-rear direction of the vehicle. The inclination excludes an orthogonal direction to the front-rear direction of the vehicle.

Abstract: A bat includes a ball hitting portion. The ball hitting portion includes a plurality of fiber-reinforced resin layers stacked in a radial direction relative to a center axis of the ball hitting portion. The plurality of fiber-reinforced resin layers include a first fiber-reinforced resin layer disposed at an outermost circumference in the radial direction among the plurality of fiber-reinforced resin layers. The first fiber-reinforced resin layer has a plurality of first fiber bundles and a plurality of second fiber bundles. The plurality of first fiber bundles are disposed side by side in a short side direction of each of the plurality of first fiber bundles. The plurality of second fiber bundles are disposed side by side in a short side direction of each of the plurality of second fiber bundles. The plurality of first fiber bundles and the plurality of second fiber bundles are woven across one another.

Abstract: An air guide plate is provided which can easily realize stable sealing properties with respect to an automobile part disposed near the air guide plate and which can provide a structure in which the air guide plate and the automobile part are not collided, at a low cost. The air guide plate 10 includes a plate body 12 made of resin and rear and front sealing members 26, 28 integrally formed on rear and front end sections 18, 20 of the plate body 12. The sealing members 26, 28 are flexible at at least base end portions 32, 38 thereof and extend from the end sections 18, 20 of the plate body 12 at an angle of more than 90 degrees to less than 180 degrees with respect to the air guide surface 13 of the plate body 12.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a liquid crystal display apparatus, including, a pixel array section, a first data line, a second data line, a writing unit, a voltage supply control unit, a data line short-circuiting unit, a reading out unit, and a testing unit.

Abstract: A pedestrian protection apparatus for a vehicle including a plate member which is disposed at a lower part of a front of the vehicle so as to extend in a frontward and backward direction of the vehicle. The plate member has a concave portion which is open at the upper surface of the plate member and which is formed in the plate member so as to be positioned more frontward of the vehicle than a radiator. The concave portion includes a non-horizontal bottom portion which provides a non-horizontal inner surface extending in an inclined or curved manner such that a depth thereof is gradually increased toward a rear side of the vehicle, and an outlet hole which is disposed at the concave portion so as to be positioned more rearward of the vehicle than the non-horizontal inner surface.
