Abstract: Provided is a switch with excellent operability. A switch is provided with a plunger, a lower torsion spring in which a biasing direction changes according to the movement of the plunger. The lower torsion spring biases the plunger in a returning direction when the plunger is in a reference position, and biases the plunger in a direction different from the returning direction when the plunger is in an operation position.

Abstract: Provided is a switch that can be downsized. A switch is provided with a plunger, and an upper torsion spring configured to bias the plunger in a returning direction. The torsion spring has a first arm that extends to the plunger and abuts against the plunger. The plunger has a hole at a position into which the first arm is inserted. The hole is a through hole extending in a direction that is perpendicular to a direction in which the plunger moves, and is the same as a direction in which the first arm extends when viewed in the direction in which the plunger moves.

Abstract: Provided is a switch that can reliably bring contacts into contact with each other with a small load, and can be prevented from malfunctioning. A switch is provided with a plunger, a lower torsion spring in which a biasing direction changes according to the movement of the plunger. The lower torsion spring biases the plunger in an opposite direction to a returning direction when the plunger is in the operation position, and biases the plunger in a direction different from the opposite direction to the returning direction when the plunger is in the reference position.

Abstract: A switch device includes an actuation unit, a movable unit, a first base, and a second spring, which is a torsion coil spring that acts between the actuation unit and the movable unit. The movable unit is movable with respect to the base. The second spring applies a force to the actuation unit when the actuation unit is at a third position in a direction that is not parallel to a direction in which the torsion coil spring applies a force to the actuation unit when the actuation unit is at a fourth position.

Abstract: A terminal connecting mechanism includes a plate spring, an insulating housing having an accommodating portion to accommodate a fixed portion and an elastic portion of the plate spring, and a terminal electrode portion disposed in the accommodating portion. The accommodating portion includes a first opening to allow a conductor portion of an electric wire to be inserted into the accommodating portion, an electric wire insertion guide wall disposed from the first opening along an insertion direction of the electric wire, to guide the conductor portion, an inclined wall facing the electric wire insertion guide wall and being inclined toward the electric wire insertion guide wall along the insertion direction of the electric wire, wherein the fixed portion is fixed to the inclined wall, and a second opening to allow a jig to be inserted into the accommodating portion, thereby canceling contact between the elastic portion and the conductor portion.

Abstract: Provided is a switch that can be downsized. A switch is provided with a plunger, two upper torsion springs that bias the plunger in a returning direction, housing-side contacts, and plunger-side contacts. One of the upper torsion springs is arranged on one side of a plane that includes an axis passing through a central portion of the plunger, and that is perpendicular to perpendicular lines M connecting the plunger-side contacts and the axis, and the other one of the upper torsion springs is arranged on the other side of the plane.

Abstract: A pressure-sensitive adhesive composition and a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet have excellent weather resistance and contain a silicone polymer having excellent curability as a main agent. A pressure-sensitive adhesive composition includes an addition reaction type silicone polymer as a component (A); an ultraviolet absorber as a component (B); and a platinum group metal catalyst as a component (C). The ultraviolet absorber as the component (B) includes a benzophenone-based ultraviolet absorber and its amount is set to a value within the range of 1 part to 4 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the addition reaction type silicone polymer as the component (A). The amount of the platinum group metal catalyst as the component (C) is set to a value within the range of 0.001 parts to 0.05 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the addition reaction type silicone polymer as the component (A).

Abstract: A slit is formed in a plunger of a limit switch in such a manner that an amount of light incident on a light receiving element is changed in accordance with displacement of the plunger. The limit switch is provided with a setting processing unit (123) for setting a voltage value outputted from the light receiving element as a threshold value when a setting instruction is inputted in a state where the plunger is displaced to a designated position by a user, a position detecting unit (113) for performing detection processing of detecting whether or not the plunger is placed at a closer position to a reference position than to the designated position by comparing the set threshold value and the voltage value outputted from the light receiving element, and an output signal controlling unit (119) for outputting a signal based on a result of the detection processing.

Abstract: In an attack operation receiving step, an input of an operation for attacking an enemy object is received. In a determination step, when the input of the operation for attacking is received, it is determined whether or not a body strength value of the enemy object is within a predetermined range. When it is determined that the body strength value of the enemy object is within the predetermined range, a setting step of setting the enemy object to substantially the same state as where the body strength value of the enemy object is zero, regardless of the degree of damage caused by the attack motion, is executed.

Abstract: A computer of an image processing device executing an image processing program displays, on a display device, a virtual three-dimensional space where there are a plurality of objects. The computer varies a size of a collision detection region defined for a predetermined object so that the size repeatedly increases and decreases over time, while the predetermined object is moving. Then, based on the collision detection region, it is determined whether or not the predetermined object and another object are in contact with each other. The computer displays, on the display device, a predetermined effect being inflicted on the object determined to be in contact with the predetermined object.
