Abstract: A device body comprises: a winding roller that is provided so as to contact with a flooring material sheet bonded to a floor and on which is wound the sheet that is stripped from the floor starting from a contact portion with the sheet; a driving means that, by rotationally driving the winding roller, winds the sheet onto the winding roller and strips the same from the floor, and that advances the device body by the winding roller being pushed toward the floor by the reactive force of the removal and rolling on the sheet; and a guiding means that discharges the sheet being stripped from the floor in front of or to the side of the direction of advancement of the device body.

Abstract: The present invention provides a small and thin electronic apparatus such as a tablet PC, which has a screen and an information processing function including an image display processing function for the screen. In the apparatus, a front cover is fixed to a LCD unit by screw-on fastening members, and a rear cover is fixed to the LCD unit by inserting screws through the screw-on fastening members into screw holes provided at positions where the screw holes overlap the LCD unit.

Abstract: A rolling contact bearing, in particular, a carbonitrided bearing mainly used for automobile transmissions, being intended that the steel for the bearing contains less amounts of alloy ingredients to keep its good cold working performance, that carbonitriding time is shortened to reduce production costs, and that its rolling fatigue life is extended, in particular, under lubrication with foreign elements.At least the bearing race member of the bearing made of a medium carbon steel consisting essentially of, by weight, 0.4 to 0.8% of C, 0.4 to 0.9% of Si, 0.7 to 1.3% of Mn and 0.5% or less of Cr is formed by cold working. The bearing race member is provided with case-hardened layers thereon obtained via carbonitriding, followed by quenching and tempering. Retained austenite in the case-hardened layers is kept in the range of, by volume, 20 to 40%, and the core portion of the bearing race member has a hardness of HRC58 or less.

Abstract: A magnesia-alumina type spinel clinker contains Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3 and TiO.sub.2 at boundaries between crystal grains, and a refractory produced by using the clinker has excellent corrosion resistance and cement coating properties. The refractory can thus be applied to the fields of cement rotary kiln refractories, refractories for iron making, steel making and nonferrous refining and the like.
